    Urban Indi Portrait 3, By Richard Wagamese

    The poem “Urban Indian: Portrait 3” written by Richard Wagamese, shows how an experience in nature can help create a connection not only with nature but also with humans. The speaker remembers an old experience of his when he was paddling “..and he can still feel the muscle/ of the channel on his arm/ the smell of it/ potent, rich, eternal/ the smell of dreams and visions..” This feeling and connection has been kept within him and has helped him become who he is now as an adult: “..and heads down the stairs/ out into the street/ to find the kids/ he teaches to carve paddles now.” He may be far from that place where he once was, but he shares this memory to carve the paddles of a canoe: “..in the moonlight/ what he brings to them.” This reveals…

    Analysis Of The Samurai's Garden By Gail Tsukiyama

    In the novel The Samurai’s Garden by Gail Tsukiyama the characters’ Matsu’s and Sachi’s gardens portray beauty as not only on the surface and below the surface but also through emotions. When Stephen saw Sachi’s garden and how different it was compared to Matsu’s he felt different emotions, “Her garden was a mixture of beauty and sadness, the rocks and stones an illusion of movement”(November 19, 1937). Stephen sees Sachi’s garden and realizes that it’s different from Matsu’s because it is just rocks and stones but he finds beauty in the rocks and stones. Her garden shows what she’s been through; her leprosy connected to the sadness that it makes and the beauty connects to how Stephen sees Sachi now even though she has leprosy.…

    We know how to recognize good behavior. We write solid EPRs, express our gratitude in Letters of Appreciation, or submit deserving members for medals. But how do we deal with bad behavior? What instruments of military law are available for counseling Airmen and correcting improper behavior? There are a range of options available from verbal counseling to Article 15s to administrative discharge. In general, most of us only have to deal with those methods appropriate for correcting behavior at the workcenter level. These administrative tools, in order of rising level of seriousness, are:…

    Tookie Williams Notes

    The primary issue brought to the table by Tookie's supporters, myself included, is that he could be of more benefit alive than dead. Yes, there were other defenses of him made light of. But very few insisting that he would go down as the next Malcom X. That was a straw man created by his opposition, as was the noble peace prize defense. Most of Tookie's supporters knew the Noble peace prize nomination meant nothing. It was the right wingers on A.M. radio that took that point, made by, mind you, few people, and turned it into a huge straw man by making it out to be the primary defense of Tookie by his supporters. In case you've been in a cave since the year 2000; The Republicans have been known to do such things.The worst that has come out of this entire ordeal is that white America has proven that they know even LESS bout inner city life than what white America knew a generation ago.Viacom makes ghetto life out to be glamorous. Go to a ghetto. There's nothing glamorous. It's still as f'd up as it ever was. Don't let the music videos fool you. They're commercials. Nothing more. Commercials for sneakers, jewlery, clothing, cars; Commercials. Not a realistic portrayal of inner city life.What's happening because of this is that middle class whites see these rap videos and think, "Oh, why should I feel bad for black people? Look at these guys with their bling bling". The truth is, the only people with the 'bling bling' are rappers, athletes, and the drug dealers in ghettos that make up for about 2% of it's population. It's top ramen noodles and second hand clothes for everyone else. Turn the t.v. off, give Rush Limbaugh a rest, and visit South Central Los Angeles. Go in the morning, so you won't be too freaked out. Rather your view changes on Tookie's sentence or not, you'll likely, at the very least, have a different perspective on how the gang cycle really works than that of the perspective that has been drilled into your head by the advertising industry, the…

    How Did Hideki Tojo Become The Prime Minister Of Japan?

    Hideki Tojo Hideki Tojo was given the position of Prime Minister of Japan on October 14th, 1941, which really became the entrance of Japan and America into World War II because of Hideki’s war background that would lead him to make a decision that forever will be in the history books. Hideki was under the impression that a war with America was impossible to be avoided, so he prepared Japan to hit America with a HUGE knock-out punch. This was a very strategic move on Hideki’s part that would eliminate America from the Pacific. His purpose behind this was that the Japanese simply despised the differences that the Americans had from them. Plus Hideki admired Hitler greatly and wanted to be the Hitler of Japan.…

    She faced discrimination, when she was a child. Others called her as “Other” or “Unalterably alien.” She draws a clear distinction between Japanese-Americans and other Americans. She emphasizes that a third generation German-American is an American, on the other hand, a third generation Japanese-American is still seen as Japanese-American, because most of the people only remember that being Japanese means being a danger to the country. I think that this is a clear example of the ignorance of people.…

    Gagaku: The Virtue Of Japanese Culture

    Japanese culture, customs, and traditions are deeply rooted in ancient beliefs and practices. Japanese tradition is largely based on the ancient ideals of shame, duty, and honor. The Japanese individual had a duty to society and family, and by fulfilling this duty, one could maintain their honor. However, if this duty was not completed, then the individual would fall into shame. Shame was to be avoided at all costs because all Japanese relationships were duty-based. An individual in shame must do as society dictates to regain their honor, and often society demanded high prices for shame. The ancient practice of hara-kiri, or suicide by cutting one’s own belly, was considered a way to regain honor. In the ancient world of the shogunate and samurai,…

    The original story of Akugawa’s “In the Grove” uses third person point of view. While in Akugawa’s adaption work, he examined the darker side of humanity by using multiple narrators to narrate their own agenda. Hence, each person gives a different account of the story which leaves reader to analyze what is truth and who is the murder in the story. Each character’s testimony seems to clarify this murder from own viewpoint, however they contradicted each other and eventually created a complex vision of events that brings into question humanity’s ability to perceive the truth.…
