A Summary Of Chahansen's 'Essay'

Cleaning up down South: supermarkets, ethical trade and African horticulture is a piece by Susanne Freidberg published in Social and Cultural Geography journal in 2003 (Freidberg, 2003). Susanne Friedberg holds PhD from UC Berkely and is a Professor of Geography in Darmouth College, New Hampshire (“Susanne Freidberg,” n.d.). In the article the author argues that the ethical standards have become fetishised. The UK supermarkets compliance with such standards edges on paranoia. It does not mean that the supermarkets care about these standards from moral point of view but that the compliance is driven by fear of bad

Topic: Compare and contrast the concepts of determinism, compatibilism, and libertarianism, as outlined in Chapter 4. What are the strengths and weaknesses of each of these positions? Which one do you believe is the most likely to be correct? Why?

Initially, Ulrich focuses on three famous women throughout her essay. Starting with Mae West, a Hollywood actress whose on-screen misbehavior ultimately led to her fame. At the time of her popularity, her behavior allowed her audience to experience what was not normally seen on screens. Known for her provocative nature on camera, West became the star of various movies and therefore added herself into history. After Mae West, Ulrich mentions Rosa Parks, who is most famously known for refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a white man. Ulrich states, “A first-year student at California university told me that to make history, people need to do the unexpected. She offered the example of civil rights activist Rosa Parks...I like her emphasis

Cruel and terrible events forever leave a mark on our memory. Especially, when these events are directly related to person, the memory reproduces every second of what happened. Unfortunately, humanity fully cognized the term of "war". "Facing it" by Yusef Komunyakaa reveals another several sides of the war. Poem tells the reader about which consequences, the war left and how changed people's lives. The hero identifies itself with the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, mourns all those killed and who did not return. That is why the poem is dramatic. War has become a part of the hero's life, even after the ending.

This song has a remorseful and gloomy mood incorporated in it. Early in the song J. Cole depicts himself as selfish and trying to keep to himself. “I like to write alone, Be in my zone,” here J. Cole is explicitly telling us that he would rather do what he does, which is making music, alone. “Until they snatched it from my mama And foreclosed her on the loan I'm so sorry that I left you there to deal with that alone I was up in New York City chasin' panties, gettin' dome Had no clue what you was goin' through,” J. Cole explains to us how he was blinded by sex, money, and fame. He tells us that he was too busy getting panties to care about his mother having her home for closed. Not only was it her home, but the only place he called home throughout

Some have said that Chris “marches to a different drummer.” I disagree and agree because when Chris visits different places on his journey, he would get help from people in that community to help him and when he was on his own he would push himself to do more because he knows he wasn’t at his fullest potential. When Chris was going to Alaska, he got helped on his way there, “On October 28, he caught a ride with a long-haul trucker into Needles, California. Overjoyed upon reaching the Colorado River,” (32). By describing Chris’s nomadic unencumbered life he didn’t do anything on his own because on his journey, he met many people that would help him get to his destination. This passage also suggests that Chris never wanted to do anything on his own, he just wanted the thrill of excitement on his adventure. Later on his journey in someplace new he met someone and became friends, “When he returned to McCandless’s camp and launched into the self-improvement pitch, though, McCandless cut him off abruptly. Look, Mr. Franz, ”(pg 51). Launched into the self-improvement pitch this to me means that he is trying to help Chris make new changes into his camp. Also when Chris cut of Mr. Franz “abruptly” he was probably thinking that Mr. Franz was trying to exploit something of his camp. Chris may have thought that Mr. Franz had a zeal obsession in making changes to his

In the article "Father's methods of child disciplines does incarceration lead to harsh and physical punishment? A research note by Elizabeth Ehrhardt Mustaine & Richard Tewksbury found that parents who had been incarcerated are correlated with child violence, deviants and criminal behaviors in childhood and adulthood. Mustaine and Tewksbury claim, parents used harsh and physical punishment affect children's emotional, psychological, physical and financial which they can support their argument with evidence. Mustaine and Tewksbury use different rhetorical strategies to support their argument by establishing ethos, reason, strong details and non-textual items such as tables by explaining what they have found in their study.

In his essay “65,” Mark Jacobson references one specific diagram, “The Stages of Man’s Life from the Cradle to the Grave,” which leads him to a small epiphany (113). Basically, according to the analogy, the stages of life are stairs, each stair representing roughly ten years. At the beginning of said stair, a person faces new experiences they aren’t yet qualified to approach. Once the person has learned to master these experiences (after about ten years or so), he/she advances a step. This person is again rendered a beginner to new territory. The same pattern, step after step, repeats for a lifetime.

Sal was ornery to Margaret because she didn’t want her father to fall in love with Mrs. Cadaver. Sal says, “I did not want to stop rush, rush, rush whispered the wind, the sky, the clouds, the trees, rush, rush, rush.” (Page 23) Sal knew there were more ways

Now, you all know about the famous playwright William Shakespeare. However, do you know about the other famous play writers of the time? Now, your reaction might be, “Wait, huh? There were other playwrights during Shakespeare’s time?” Yes there were, and they were actually quite famous. Two of the most prominent ones were Ben Johnson and Christopher Marlow. Today, we mainly focus on Shakespeare and his works. However, each of these men were making plenty of moolah back in the day. They even each other and had very light rivalries. I will be talking about these two men’s works and how they affected Elizabethan drama. (Volunteer doopededoo)

The article by Avital-Cohen and Tsal (2016) discussed the flanker task experiment, which asserted that distractor interference happens unconsciously as a result of focused attention toward the target. The results from the original flanker task indicated that participants had slower responses for incongruent trials, since the distractors are inconsistent with the target and would require a different response (Avital-Cohen & Tsal, 2016). However, Avital-Cohen and Tsal (2016) questioned the findings from the flanker task experiment. They decided to challenge the idea that only the target stimuli receives top-down processing, and not the distractors (Avital-Cohen & Tsal, 2016). The first experiment aimed to test whether the distractor interference is purely bottom-up processing as claimed in the flanker task. The experiment manipulated participants’ expectations of the target using the context effect - a type of top-down processing - by changing the distractors to be either letters or digits (Psych 240 lecture, 9/21/16). Then, the researchers conducted a second experiment and eliminated the ambiguity of distractors. They wanted to test whether the result from experiment 1 was caused by an overall bias or the ambiguous distractors. In experiment 2, the researchers predicted that they would obtain similar results to the first experiment only if the results were due to an overall bias effect (Avital-Cohen & Tsal, 2016). This study allows us to deepen our understanding of available

When Japan was in the turning point of its economics and forming of new government, author Nakaw Chomin wrote a book called A Discourse by Three Drunkards on Government in 1877. This book presents use with a work of debate literature with specific characters with their beliefs about Japan’s future. One of the two main characters in the book,

During the Meiji period, Japan was trying to figure out how to modernize itself after the Meiji government overthrew the Shogunate. One argument is that the Japanese should follow the Western style of idealism, where the Japanese should use peaceful tactics in order to avoid conflict with other nations. The other argument is realism, in which the Japanese would use aggressive tactics on. What Nakae Chomin is trying to say in the book, A Discourse by Three Drunkards on Government, is that is very difficult to figure out what Japan’s future is going to be, and that they shouldn’t simply have purely idealistic or realistic views, but to find a middle ground where they can succeed. While it might be a good idea to not show aggression toward

Setting - The story takes place in the mid to late 1900s Harlem.  In the beginning, Alfred sits on a stoop pretending to watch the sun set.  The author describes the alley in which Alfred lives.  On page 3, it says that, “Cars cruised through the garbage and broken glass,” and that, “Packs of little kids, raggedy and skinny, raced past him along the gutter’s edge, kicking empty beer cans ahead of them.”  This setting symbolises the battle he has already fought to get where he is now.  This affects the plot because if the setting was someplace else, like where aunt Dorothy lives, Alfred would have never have met Major, Hollis, or even James.  On page 31 it says, “They rode past grimy little factories and projects and, after a while, along clean, grassy streets lined with neat little houses,” which means that the place is cleaner and if Alfred were raised there, there would be a lot less people like Major and Hollis.  Also, If Alfred lived in the 21st century, he would not have been as discriminated.

“The issue of reading Fanon today, then, is perhaps not about finding the moment of relevance in Fanon’s text that corresponds with the world, but in searching for the moments where Fanon’s text and the world do not correspond, and asking how Fanon, the revolutionary, would think and act in the period of retrogression.”
