Since the 1800’s‚ civil disobedience has been used by the people to peacefully oppose laws and fight the government. Civil disobedience—when used in it’s true form (which is to be peaceful and willingly accept punishment after purposely breaking a law)—does not create violence or undermine the government.

Two works of literature written in two different time periods with so many similarities‚ ‘Antigone’ by Sophocles and ‘Letter from a Birmingham Jail’ by Dr. Martin Luther King is baffling to say the least.

ENGL 101.49 4/24/2014 The American Dream The American Dream is a personal thing. Each person’s belief or thought on what the American Dream is‚ is different than anybody else’s.

Personal space. All people value this as social boundary and create appropriate norms. As we were assigned this task of violating a social norm in public‚ I began to consider all the strange personal space norms our society and campus holds. For example‚ while riding the bus if there a few people on it‚ you are typically going to sit two seats or more away from one another.
