family is considered important. For without family‚ an individual can struggle to understand where they came from‚ and miss out on connections that may impact their life. The importance of family is exemplified in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban as the main character struggles to discover himself. A wise man once said‚ “You don’t have to be blood to be family” (Rowling). According to Harry Potter‚ this was very much so the case. Harry Potter was orphaned as a baby when his parents

Should Prisoners have the right to vote? Do you think that people that are imprisoned because they were incapable to follow the law‚ should have the same rights as law abiding citizens? After doing some thorough research I have come to the conclusion that people who cannot seem to follow the simple laws set in place by the federal governments all over the world‚ then no‚ they should no longer obtain the right to vote in a democratic election poll. Voting rights have always been a controversial issue

Homeschooling: Solution for Educating Girls in Afghanistan On December 10‚ 1948‚ “the General Assembly of the United Nations declared education a human right” (Kavazanjian 41). In other words‚ every individual has the right to learn and enhance their knowledge. Although most people exercise this right easily‚ others are not so lucky. For example‚ many girls in Afghanistan do not have the means to obtain a primary education. Traditional values‚ poverty and lack of security prevent Afghani girls

In my opinion‚ the courts have gone a too far with defending the rights of prisoners. People who go to prison are there for a reason; they broke the law and now it is time for them to serve their time. Although prisoners do have rights and are still subject to the Constitution‚ being in prison those rights are pretty much null and void. Under The Fourth Amendment‚ it states that a person has the right to feel safe in their persons‚ houses‚ papers and effects. Being in a correctional facility

In the book‚ Prisoner B-3087‚ the main character‚ Yanek‚ is a smart‚ creative person who wants to work in movies. Yank is all of these because in the book it says “It was a slide projector I’d made by mounting a light bulb on a piece of wood and positioning wooden plates with lenses from magnifying glasses in front of it.” (4) This quote describes him being smart and creative because most kids don’t make a slide projector‚ that works well‚ and he puts western shadow puppet shows on with it‚ as it

Once he was brought

hitting the slick ground and gentle rocking motions of a wagon greeting her. Though the bite of rough rope bruising against her delicate skin were what had initially coaxed her into consciousness‚ it was quickly forgotten as she realized her status as prisoner of the imperial soldiers that surrounded and lead the wagon trail she found herself a part of. What she had done to invoke their wrath she did not know‚ but she knew the budding sense of dread she felt was not misplaced. Her fate was shared by three
