The Innocent Man Ashley Alexander February 25‚ 2013 Sociology The book The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town was one of the best books that I have read in a very long time.

He shows us how people

Iron Man: The Real Hero In today’s society‚ the concern of people and laws are not about doing good but rather having the appearance of good. People no longer care about what they need to stand for‚ only that they look like they aren’t sitting down. In fact‚ men today are treated as outcasts when sticking up for a good thing when it doesn’t have a pleasant appearance. Men such as Thomas Jefferson‚ Leonidas‚ Joshua and Jesus‚ men that represent something greater than what meets the eye‚ are scarce

BBeing a Man by Paul Theroux I personally do not agree at all with the perspective of Paul Theroux. Theroux’s major argument is how the idea of manhood in America is pitiful. He describes masculinity as “having to wear an ill-fitting coat for one’s entire life (in contrast femininity is nakedness).” What I believe he means by this is that every man must cover themselves up with a layer of manliness and toughness in order to be a man. Throughout the essay Theroux reinforces his hate for manliness

Man’s Inhumanity to Man Over the centuries‚ nothing has caused more pain and suffering for man than man himself. Through war‚ hate crimes‚ and random acts of violence‚ the fear of the different and unknown has made itself known in human nature.
