The Crucible is a great example of how even the slightest of lies can have great and everlasting consequences. Often time a simple white lie expands as the creator has to cover it up with more lies and deceit until this little white lie has turned into a gargantuan monster that can cause chaos and destruction in the lives of those around them. This is shown in The Crucible when Abigail tries to

The white tiger is cloudily hilarious

When I first became knowledgeable about intersectionality‚ I thought of the phrase “white privilege”. I thought about how‚ in modern time‚ most individuals truly do not think about how their race‚ religion‚ gender‚ language‚ and other aspects of their identities impact their daily lives. While I have experienced brief moments in my life where my identities came to light‚ I never considered how these “labels” benefit me or even make me vulnerable. All of my identities inform my worldview‚ and just

Totally Agree Lying is something that has to be done depending on the situation. Everyone lies or has lied. So what is the big deal about lying.

Why Did Major Morris Give The Whites The paw? Sergeant Major Morris was such good friends with the Whites. But if he really was‚ why would he hand then such a curse? It says in the story that he was drunk‚ but he wasn’t obviously intoxicated. Alcohol may have affected him‚ but I think he probably planned to see them before he drank; most people don’t visit a friend before calling and planning – and even if he is one of those lazy people‚ He’d still be polite - because as a soldier‚ you have to have

White Men Can’t Jump Starring: Wesley Snipes‚ Woody Harrelson‚ Rosie Perez The title of this movie says it all. Although White Men Can’t Jump is an older movie made back in 1992‚ there are still a lot of stereotypes from the movie seen today. The plot of this move is about a white man who likes to hustle black basketball players because they think he can’t play because of the color of his skin. It is the black players’ own assumptions that get them into a little bit of trouble. Billy (Woody)

stories. My favorite character in the story would have to be White Fang. White Fang is the key character of the novel. His mother Kiche‚ (she-wolf) mated with a full wolf and had a litter of pups. White Fang was the only pup to survive a series of famines. White Fang starts his life out in the wild rather than being pampered. He progresses and becomes more of a dog rather than a wolf. This is all the added reasoning to why White Fang is my favorite character. He dodges adversity and becomes more
