All My Sons 3/18/13 Critical Lens - Benjamin Aereli Benjamin Aereli once said that “Circumstances are beyond the control of the man‚ but his conduct is in his power.” I agree with this quote.

When I was recently suffering from the dreaded sweet tooth syndrome‚ I hadn’t the slightest clue that the result would lead to a personal and universal philosophical debate worthy of comparison to Richard Wright’s Native Son. I found a bag of Dove milk chocolates in my cupboard‚ and proceeded to snack mindlessly. If you have ever had a Dove chocolate bar‚ you may know that the foil wrappers include adorable anecdotes‚ encouraging you to “take a well-deserved bubble bath”‚ or reminding you that “when

Methodist took America’s tired‚ poor and huddled masses long before the Statue of Liberty could do this. During America’s Great Awakening beginning in the 1730’s‚ Methodist became the religious group to tolerate all. In A Son of the Forest‚ Apess makes this point evident when he writes‚ “I felt convinced that Christ died for all mankind--that age‚ sect‚ colour‚ country‚ or situation‚ made no difference.

Father-Son Relationships For years psychologists have studied how people evolve. Some believe that we are predetermined through genetics. Clichés such as‚ “The acorn does not fall far from the tree‚” suggest that parents and lineage are the greatest influence. Others believe that role models are more influential.

In Richard Wright ’s "Native Son"‚ emotions are a very important element‚ especially that of fear. Blacks are afraid of whites‚ whites are afraid of blacks‚ women are afraid of men‚ and everyone is afraid of communists.

Fear is a catalyst for Bigger that‚ without which‚ Bigger would be living the same life and nothing would change. Fear is the driving force
