    “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” stated Ronald Reagan in front of the Brandenburg Gate in West Berlin. June 12, 1987 was the day a speech was given that was the start of unity for all of Berlin. Within two short years of this speech being presented, the wall that divided freedom and totalitarianism was tore down for good. President Reagan’s purpose was clear to all. His duty was to visit Germany as all of the past presidents had done, and promote the means of freedom like what was shared by the people in the United States. He starts his speech by sharing some of American and German history since 1945 and how the results of the Cold War shaped where they are today. He also makes strong comparisons including the differences in Western and Eastern Berlin, and the failures of the communist governments. This all makes an appearance in the first section of Reagan’s speech while he tries to explain why this wall must come down.…

    In Poliakoff's piece called, ‘Stadium and Arena: Reflections on Greek, Roman, and Contemporary Social History’ he closely examines the Greek Stadium and the Roman Arena and how key elements of both of these events can be found in sports culture today. Poliakoff writes about the spectator's experience in both the stadium and the arena. In the stadium, it was not an ideal environment. It was hot, there was nothing to shade them, it didn't have proper seating and since bathing was limited, the stadium would become quite smelly. However, despite all the unfavourable factors, the spectators were still excitable. Conversely, the Roman stadium has ideal conditions for the spectators. There was an awning, stone seats, perfume was offered, etc. This…

    Euthanasia is a complex and controversial topic in society today. Euthanasia is an action or omission to cause death. One topic that is hotly debated is physician-assisted suicide. Physician-assisted suicide is an act of commission by a willing patient and his or her doctor to end his or her life.
