I think that Breaking Stalin’s Nose is historically accurate because Joseph Stalin had changed the law and the curriculum based on what he wanted people to learn. He changed songs‚ books‚ went after those who did not agree with communism‚ and wanted children to believe that being a Soviet Union soldier will help people. Communism in the book shows that people share their living areas and their property is publically owned. On page 27‚ Stukachov knocks on Sasha Zaichik and his father’s door because

Anav Pradhan (GP2) Can breaking the law ever be justified? Imagine a world without those brave people who dared to not abide by the law and fight for a right. A world without Gandhi would be a world without independent India; without Mandela there would be white superiority in Africa; without freedom fighters‚ there would be no democracy in Nepal. I believe that all the actions of such law breakers are good‚ even though they were against various laws‚ and such actions can be justified to some extent

Walter White: The Selfish Villain Sociopath‚ power hungry‚ determined‚ unforgiving‚ these are just a few words that describe Breaking Bad main character Walter White.

To my understanding a man who makes

has some valid points when he says this. Small laws can hurt the community when people who regularly obey the law are breaking the law in small ways. People are just to used to hearing about the big crimes that people just might not give a damn about the small laws. Some people who might be against this will probably say that the law obeying people are accidentally breaking the small laws‚ because they don’t know them.

Breaking Cultural Rules about Gender. To me‚ gender has always been the basic distinction between men and women. It signifies the difference between the way men and women lead their lives‚ how and with which gender they identify themselves. What this means to me‚ is that people divide themselves into two groups and identify themselves with the social attributes and gender roles associated with those genders. Gender is not simply the natural physiological distinction‚ it is also the construct

The only time I remember breaking a gender role was when I was about seven years old. As a child growing up in a very snowy climate‚ an absolute necessity was snowshoes that left little monster footprints. All of my classmates had a pair‚ so I begged my mother to buy me some too. And so we went to a sporting good’s store that carried the shoes and suddenly there was a problem. I think at some point in all of our lives we saw pink as a color we absolutely did not want to have. Otherwise‚ a peer would
