of course‚ one of the prime tools of cultural expression. So it should not surprise us to discover that the decline of indigenous cultures is also having a serious effect on the languages of the world. Indeed‚ an indigenous language disappears every two weeks. It is estimated that by the end of the 21st century‚ 5‚500 of the current 6‚000 languages now spoken will simply be as dead as Ancient Greek and Latin. Behind each language is a culture‚ the expressive richness of a living tongue and its infinite

The best advice I ever got about reading came from the critic and scholar Louis Menand. Back in 2005‚ I spent six months in Boston and‚ for the fun of it‚ sat in on a lit seminar he was teaching at Harvard. The week we were to read Gertrude Stein’s notoriously challenging Tender Buttons‚ one student raised her hand and asked—bravely‚ I thought—if Menand had any advice about how best to approach it. In response‚ he offered up the closest thing to a beatific smile I have ever seen on the face of a

Hate speech comes from a long history and has been brought into schools which can breed an entire generation to racist actions and ignorance towards specific categories of people. Many groups have been put into place to stop such actions and they try to bring us all together but with all the laws that were made hundreds of years ago it makes it harder and harder to break up and regulate such things as hate speech. WIth the groups that try their best to get rid of hate speech‚ it brings

Love the people you hate the most. God’s chosen people were called to love unconditionally‚ yet they absolutely hated the Samaritans. “Love your neighbor as yourself. For there is no commandment greater than these”(Mark 12:31). The Samaritans were viewed as a disgrace in the eyes of the Jews. “A person’s a person‚ no matter how small”(Dr. Seuss). What gives us the right to hate someone because of the way they look‚ what they believe‚ or how they live? Israel was split into the Northern and Southern

I am sitting here‚ in the academic block in IBA‚ 9:05 am‚ waiting for my class to begin which is around one hour from now. 14 August is just two days away and I feel sad to see the lack of enthusiasm and joy related to this occasion among the people of Pakistan‚ including me.

Personally speaking‚ education institutions should not adopt a speech code that regulates hate speech. First of all‚ everyone has the moral right to free speech. It means that people have the right to express their opinions freely‚ whether the opinion is right or wrong. At this point‚ a speech code conflicts with the moral right to free speech because it restricts people’s right. We can refute the wrong statements‚ but we cannot forbid them. Free speech is important and essential in the society.

Even after slavery and denial of right to vote based on color was outlawed‚ African Americans were still victims to segregation. Although segregation on interstate buses was outlawed‚ Southern states did not abide by this. From this came the formation
