Understand What Im Regions Of The World Nation Diversity
436 words
Diversity is a big part of todays society. But to
understand diversity we have to know what it is.
Diversity is where there are many different
backgrounds, religion, and races. Ralph Bunch said
I have a deep seated bias against hate and
intolerance. I have a bias against racial and
religious bigotry. I have a bias against war, a
bias for peace. I have a bias which leads me to
believe no problem of human relations is ever
insoluble. This is true because diversity can help
us understand so much. O...

Outlook On Life Black And White
878 words
In analyzing the story, The Worn Path, written by
Eudora Welty, I have taken what was printed in
black and white, and translated the meaning to the
colorful outlook on life which was intended by the
author. Finding the literal and true meaning of
what an author expresses sometimes entails looking
past what has simply been written. The author of
this story has taken familiar situations and
characters to which a reader can relate, in order
to present a revelation on life, which is
sometimes diffic...

Hyphenated Americans Present Today People

The country of the United States of America has
been founded on the basis of immigration and
ethnicities. So what necessarily makes one an
American? Many people think that our nation should
be looked at as one nation of a group of people,
bottom line. This can and will not be able to
happen in our country. Because of our differences
as people, the United States will always be looked

Search For Emma Story Search For Emma Book
477 words
The Search For Emma's Story isn't really a book;
it is kind of a how to guide and a fable in one.
In each chapter there is a section entitled "
Emma's Story. " To me this is like reading a
children's book where the characters are just
being given something to do and not having any
real rhyme or reason. Also included in each
chapter entitled "Portfolio of Evidence. " The
portfolio of evidence is very different from any
other book I've ever read because it goes through

In the essay Do Geeks need to go to college by
Lisa Schmeiser is about the question if people
lose the skill of wanting to learn if they skip
college. I feel that a lot of high-tech jobs
easily relate to a good majority of the general
majors provided by universities. People that have
gone to college and majored in biology, or some
major to that degree, can relate their major to a
programming job by how college teaches them the
skill of learning. In the essay it was stated that
