Blacks Treated As Lower Class Citizens
... The first example that the black community has been treated as a
lower- class citizen was when they couldn't get a good education. "Besides,
those doors are always open to them…But most are deprived of education…This
gets easier and easier until she comes up with still another child to abort
or support, But none of this is 'Negro-ness'" (Griffin 92). This quote
shows that the blacks were deprived of an education, and a good education
is usually a symbol of middle- or higher- class citizen. "They are so close
to their ancestors learned to read and write at the risk of severe
punishment, that learning is almost a sacred privilege (Griffin 125)." This
quote shows ...

Welfare Reform
... but to the many generations to follow that family line.
The consists of two major ideas. First, there is revolutionary change in basic goals set by the federal government. Second, a dramatic change turning what used to be a federal, centralized system over to the states. At this point welfare rules require most recipients to work within two years of receiving assistance, limit most assistance to five years total, and let states establish family duration by denying additional benefits to mothers for children born while the mothers are already on public assistance.
Traditionally the federal government set eligibility guidelines on a national basis, then ...

Against Censoring Harmless Obscene Language
... of
speech. Article I of the United States Constitution states, "Congress shall
make no law…abridging the freedom of speech." Translated, this asserts that I
can say what ever the !@#$ I want to.† Ooh, I'm sorry, I hope you closed your
eyes and washed your ears out with soap. If not, too $%@# bad!
My belief is that nothing should be censored. Nothing. It is every
person's right and responsibility to shield him or herself from any language and
other audio and visual provided I do not say anything false which could hurt
another person's reputation messages that is found demeaning to the individual.
One person may find my !@#$%& language offensive, yet anot ...

... to day basis, the television keeps us informed with plenty of
helpful information. We are informed through the television of the latest news,
weather, and information which are important in our daily lives. The television
often acts as an almanac, dictionary, and an eye into the world around us. It
informs us of the most recent happenings around the world within seconds. Such
as the O.J. Simpson trial, the Oklahoma City bombing, and the wars taking place
in the Middle East. Through TV we can be warned about almost anything from a
hurricane approaching to the fact that the stock market is falling. The

The Crucial Role Of Mass Media

The two sides on the ability of the mass media to fulfill it’s role recognized by the Bill of Rights can be categorized into either the supporters of Jarol Manhiem’s essay on the ineptness of the media to realize it’s privileged role or the supporters of Douglas Rushkoff’s essay on the ability of American people to see past the distractive sensationalism of modern day mass media. The debate that was engaged in class rested on these two contradicting sides.

The Problem Of Domestic Violence
... families men and women do
not engage in physically abusive behavior" (The Brown U.), but because the
media feels that it is their public duty to deceive us into believing that
this problem is an "epidemic" (Domestic V.) we feel that, that is the case.
Webster's dictionary defines epidemic as "a rapid spreading of a disease;
to many people at the same time", this is not the case with domestic
violence, one it didn't just happen overnight, it has just been popularized
overnight, domestic violence has been going on from as far back as anyone
can remember and probably farther than that, and two, this is not affecting
many people at the same timem, because, as I've st ...

Different Images Of The Wife Between Sixteenth Centuries And Today
... together in sixteenth centuries. In "The Taming of the shrew", Katherine
needed to live in the Petruchio's house. When she pointed out the mistake to her
husband, her husband would call her who came back to their home. We can see that
the respect of Katherine " Forward, I pray, since we have come so far, and be
it moon, or sun, or what you please." 1 In fact, she needed her husband to
support her life. If Petruchio didn't support her life, then she couldn't live
only herself. Oppositely, many wives have their new style of life today. They
don't need their husband to support their life. They can take care themselves.
In article "Men, women more confused about ...

Cultural Diversity & Intergroup Relations: A Glimpse Into The World Of The Disabled
... realize how fortunate I am to have healthy legs. As I was walking with the walker toward the cafeteria, things started brutal. My hands and legs started hurting and getting sore. It usually would only take me about 2-3 minutes to get to the cafeteria from the Academic Building, but instead, it took me about 15 minutes with the walker. People were kind enough, however, to open the doors for my partner and I.
As we entered the cafeteria, I noticed people looking at us sympathetically and some very arrogantly. One person in particular couldn’t stop starring at me. The way he was looking at me upset me and made me a bit annoyed. In my mind I felt like hitting hi ...
