The movie; Kinsey‚ in my opinion was a great film on the life of Dr. Kinsey’s work. I thought the movie was interesting and I enjoyed it. Kinsey was different from most movies I have watched before. The way he conducted his experiments and research were unusual and caught me by surprise. He wanted to help people that felt unnatural about their sexuality and thats a justified goal.

The short story "Shame" by Dick Gregory‚ clearly shows that poverty brings many hardships as well as a great deal of shame. However‚ there are still ways to gain pride and happiness. This story shows that by emulating somebody you respect‚ even a very poor person can derive pride from small actions‚ which the average person sees as insignificant.
