Concentration Camps Considered Racially People
766 wordsMy background is Italian, so that makes me Italian-Canadian. The only time I have personally experienced racism was when I was called a wop. This is how it felt: hurtful, degrading, humiliating. This is what it made me feel like as a person: worthless, inferior, powerless. Is this what goes on in the world? Is it truly fair? That is what my experience made me wonder. People who taunt others, in my opinion, are actually insecure about themselves. It might be because they are uncomfortable with wh...

Released Into A World Japanese Americans Family
521 wordsFarewell to Manzanar Fighting a war against the oppression and persecution of a people, how hypocritical of the American government to harass and punish those based on their heritage.

Stay At Home Men And Women
903 wordsGender Differences In Israel When I go places with my friends, I cannot help but notice the obvious difference between my male friends and female friends. Men and women are very different; however, this does not mean that they should have separate roles in society. I believe the United States has done a nice job of providing equal opportunities so that women have a choice of what they want to do. But not all places have done as well. In Israel, women are badly discriminating by the gender roles ...

Natural Law Political Theories
1,387 wordsThe autonomy of law and in particular the alleged separateness of law and politics has been the subject of debate since time immemorial. Many legal theorists have made the assertion that law is autonomous and is different from politics; many others have gone as far as to call the supposed separation of law and politics a mere myth. It is the intention of this paper to make a very humble contribution to this debate. This paper is premised upon the refutation of the autonomy of law and the separat...

Views On Censorship Hands Of Children Plato
1,063 wordsPlato's three main objections to poetry are that poetry is not ethical, philosophical or pragmatic. It is not ethical because it promotes undesirable passions, it is not philosophical because it does not provide true knowledge, and it is not pragmatic because it is inferior to the practical arts and therefore has no educational value. Plato then makes a challenge to poets to defend themselves against his criticisms. Ironically it was Plato's most famous student, Aristotle, who was the first theo...

Declaration Of Independence Machiavelli
1,528 wordsPolitical thought is only a surrogate or substitute for more genuine political action. This is one theory that has sparked much thought and when examined it may be seen quite differently. For one, an argument can be made that indeed this political thought may substitute political action. On the other hand, political thought can serve as a great inspiration or spark political action. Thirdly, political thought may not have anything to do with more genuine political action but instead it may be pu...

Big Bang Theory Higher Power
820 wordsBy all accounts scientific, religion is a belief in an entity and a philosophy founded on the basis of morality rather than one, which is provably factual. Theology we tend to forget is as much theory as any one of the numerous sciences. The difference is however that theology is an age-old study, still as yet unproven and far inferior to the study of evolution. To the spiritually enlightened however, little matters other than religion, regardless of denomination, and as an observation such peop...

End A War Withhold Sex Women
1,262 wordsLysistrata Untitled By: April Gibbs Lysistrata by Aristophanes I think the story of Lysistrata is both interesting and surprising. I did not expect a story that was written in 411 BC to have much of anything I could relate to our world today. Aristophanes deals with very real, every day issues in this story. Although he is actually poking fun at them by making the situations as absurd as possible, there are still many very real topics discussed in this work. I think the most prevalent theme is t...
