    Bruce Dawe Homecoming Analysis

    Homecoming by Bruce Dawe All day, day after day, they’re bringing them home, they’re picking them up, those they can find, and bringing them home, they’re bringing them in, piled on the hulls of Grants, in trucks, in convoys, they’re zipping them up in green plastic bags, they’re tagging them now in Saigon, in the mortuary coolness they’re giving them names, they’re rolling them out of the deep-freeze lockers – on the tarmac at Tan Son Nhut the noble jets are whining like hounds, they are bringing them home – curly- heads, kinky hairs, crew-cuts, balding non-coms – they’re high, now high and higher, over the land, the steaming chow mein, their shadows are tracing the blue curve of the Pacific with sorrowful quick fingers, heading…

    The Kite Runner Redemption Analysis

    A voice is heard in the wilderness telling people to “repent:” “Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turn to God” (3:8 Matthew). In this passage, Prophet John the Baptist is preparing people for redemption. If anyone returns from their evil ways, there will be a redemption and peace for the rest of their lives. These concept of redemption is seen in the movie, The Kite Runner, which takes place in the late 70s in Kabul, Afghanistan. Director Marc Forster tells the story of a friendship between Amir and Hassan, two young boys growing up in Kabul. Although, they are raised in the same household and shared the same wet nurse, Amir and Hassan grew up in different worlds: Amir is the son of a prominent and wealthy man, while Hassan is the son of Amir's father's Hazara servant. As a protagonist, Amir has many complexes and struggles with the consequences of the…

    Economic Justice For All

    These individuals touched base on many different topics. They tried to analyze their views from a standpoint that had no bias. One of the main points that I found interesting is when they talked about how Jesus put those who were in need above all. If someone needed help, then he would go to their side right away. Even if the person had lost his way in faith, Jesus would always make sure that the men and women who needed help and guidance got exactly that. I think that this a great point to highlight because if you can base an entire economy off of that one idea, then you have a nation that acts as a family. In my opinion there is no better way to run a world.…

    The Walking Dead Analysis

    “Sometimes I wonder if you even care about us at all.” As Rick explains to Shane the situation in which Lori, his wife, made this comment to him in front of their son, Carl, in season one of The Walking Dead, you can tell that this was something the stung and really hurt Rick inside. He goes on to say that “the difference between men and women is a man would never say something so cruel.” This may or may not be true, but the fact that he made this comment shows that there is obvious resentment that he has for his wife, and shows that she may not trust him as the caregiver for their family. What is incredible about this situation is the fact that this all seemingly was able to go away after Rick fought through heartache, coma, and a lot of zombies to get back to his wife and son at a hideout in the outskirts of Atlanta. The initial thoughts and feelings that came up arose during a time where less trivial things were occurring around them, and their embrace and reconnection fueled them to “push” the feelings away due to their love for each other and Carl. The unfortunate side to love, however, is the fact that emotions can’t be masked and feelings can’t be instantly changed on a whim. Despite the couple overcoming adversity and trial to move past their petty issue, those petty issues are a sign of more concrete and underlying faults in their love. The effect of the Zombies leads to people coming together to work to concile their relationship, which then leads to fundamental changes taking place after the conciliation step, whether that be coming closer, moving even farther apart then before, or complicating the essence of the love itself.…

    Of The Coming Of John Analysis

    The story “Of the Coming of John” is mainly about two Johns, a white John and a black John. In the essay, it gives you a description on the privilege of each John receives. You asked us to analyze the damaging impact of double consciousness. As W.E.B DuBois explained, double consciousness is having your identity divided into several parts. The damage of double-consciousness can be caused by the opinions and treatment of white people. Also double-consciousness gives some type of conflict towards black people because they struggle to identify themselves as a black person and an American citizen. “Of the Coming of John” affects society because the different race feels like they are untouchable and they will always receive justice.…
