    During the civil rights movement of the 1960s, the methods of the pacifists—such as Martin Luther King—clashed with the more radical elements. Do you think one was more influential than another, or did it take both to bring about change? If you think one was more influential, why? If not, why do you think both were necessary?…

    Andy Punishment The Duvitches

    When Andy and Tom throw their bar of soap into the Duvitches tub of fish, poisoning them all they are given the punishment from their father of going in the lake and catching 61 fish, the same amount the Duvitches had caught within the day. Andy’s father was right to give his boys such a tough punishment because this punishment allowed his boys to look at what they did in a new way.

    The Bluest Eye Research Paper

    1. The history of the Breedloves' home is that it use to be a store. The Breedlove's lived in a store front. It is a very unattractive building within the community. "...pedestrians, who are residents of the neighborhood, simply look away when they pass it."(Morrison 33). That statement shows me that no one cared about this abandoned store. Before the store was abandoned it was a pizza parlor, a real estate office, and a gypsies base of operations. I believe that no one remembers the Breedlove's living in the store because no one ever took notice of the store also the Breedlove's were not active with in the community to be noticed by anyone. The book states that the Breedlove's did not make a wave in the mayor's office.…

    The Theme of Wing's Chips

    The narrator tells her tale of the different cultures in the town and how they always didnt agree or respect each other. The different cultures in the small town were French, English and there was a small Chinese family who owned and ran a local store. The narrator and her Father were an English family living in a French community; this would prove to be a very difficult task because of the ongoing feud between the two cultures. The daughter tells the story in such a manner that leads the reader to think that the father was simply there, and that he was there because he wanted to be and it didnt matter that the other people might not have wanted him there. This goes to show of the fathers strong beliefs and independence of prejudice.…

    Cornet At Night

    Firstly, the main character, Tommy Dickson has always lived on the prairie farm with his family, he lives in isolation from the rest of the world, therefore, he does not know anything outside the farm. Later, Tommy is given the task to go to town and find a stook to help his father on the farm. This brings us to the comparison between the farm and the town, the farm is old since Tommy is comfortable with this place and the town is new because Tommy doesn't know it very well. The story states “But in town it is different. There are eyes here, critical, that pierce with a single glance the little bubble of his self-importance, and leave him dwindled smaller even than his normal size.”(Ross 223) Among the sophisticated, well-dressed folks, and the advanced types of transportation. Tommy definitely feels he is being judged, But at the same time, if he didn’t go to the town, he would have never learned things he never knew. In Addition, another…

    Two American Families Analysis

    The Stanley’s and Neumann’s families are just two families hardworking families from the Midwest, who are currently going through some financial hardship. One quote that sticks out is at the very beginning of the film, when Terry Neumann “And our expectations were— I thought, you know, you find the man that you like and get married and have a family and get a house, a little white picket fence, you know, all those little fairy tale type things”(Two American Families). This just shows you how you can imagine a certain life for yourself, but then reality can hit and change things. I doubt that Terry Neumann would have expected that her life would experience such drastic changes. For the Stanley family they faced similar circumstances just like the…

    The two most important points of view are those of Josie and Peter. The use of different points of view allows the reader to make their own opinions on the characters and interpret the situations differently. This technique makes viewing the different characters weaknesses and their thoughts on themselves and other people, “If you spent your life concentrating on what everyone else thought of you, would you forget who you really were?” (Kindle location 2105), demonstrates the characters thoughts of trying to belong, but amidst their efforts, they lose themselves.…

    The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant

    An ordinary boy who loves to fish more than anything, anything that is except for Shelia Mant, he said "There was a summer in my life when the only creature that seemed lovelier to me than a largemouth bass was Shelia Mant". The Mants had rented the cottage next to ours; Shelia Mant was the middle daughter at 17-years-old, a perfect ten in looks, and had his heart in her back pocket. When the boy finally got his chance he took her in his canoe to Dixford where a band was playing. On the way to the concert there was a largemouth bass flipping around in the water and Sheila mentioned that she thought fishing was dumb and a few seconds later, his line caught a fish. Shelia said, "I think fishing is dumb, I mean boring and all, definitely dumb." It was a huge bass, and it was hooked on. The whole time he was rowing the canoe, he was debating whether or not he should catch the fish, or ignore it.…
