Hatred Research Papers

In the beginning the class we were assigned groups and as a whole we had to find the literal point or subject of the readings that were due for the day and relate them to identity, attitude, or prejudice. This was to allow us to prepare to write our second major essay we had for writing 1. We were assigned the Andrew Sullivan readings, “what’s so bad about hate?”. The short excerpt from the article stated various situations in which the actions were categorized as a regular crime or a hate crime. The author then continued to discuss how adding a hate crime just complicates the verdict because no one except the individual knows why they committed the crime. Throughout the reading as a group we categorized the reading as one of identity. Everyone

In the novel Hate List, by Jennifer Brown, was about a sixteen year old girl named Valerie. She lived with her mom, dad, and younger brother Frankie. Valerie also had a boyfriend named Nick, and they had typical high school problems. Nick was bullied because of how poor he was, and Valerie was also bullied because she dressed goth and was different than the other girls. The bullies called her, “Sister Death.” Out of anger Nick and Valerie therapeutically created a “Hate List” which was a list of names of people who made them angry, jealous, and scared. Little did Valerie know her boyfriend would open fire at school targeting the names on that list. It started when Christy Bruter, one of the bullies, broke Valerie’s MP3 player. Furious, she called Nick and told

“My sister left home as soon as she turned 18 and my brother left for the army a year later. They said they had to get out of the house. My brother ended up killing himself in boot camp. His note said he couldn’t handle the stress his drill instructors were putting him under. That sent my mom into a tailspin of depression and she had to be hospitalized again. I haven’t heard from my sister since she left home. She could be dead for all we know. She was a little messed up too.”

The Third Reich was a racially motivated killing machine that resulted in the death of six million Jews. However, the regime’s murderous campaign was a response to a set of circumstances that allowed it to obtain control over Germany. Today, the question of what circumstances ignited the Third Reich has gained attention from historians all over the world while creating a variety of possibilities. Thus, the different perspectives have caused the subject to become controversial among the devoted historians. This is especially true when considering the views of writers Daniel J. Goldhagen, Robert Gellately, Hans Mommsen, and Norman M. Naimark.

Since the founding of the United States, race has always been one of the biggest points of contention. In “The Hate U Give”, written by Angie Thomas, the themes of race, identity, and fairness are all explored in depth along with social issues such as police brutality and gentrification. While reading “The Hate U Give”, many complicated questions where asked and eye opening conversations were had. Understanding the views of others and they are influenced by external factors along with understanding why we talk about race in first place (in the context of reading THUG) as well as my feeling about the book all cropped up as conversation points.

For this book the most important character would be either, Valerie or Nick. Without nick there would have been no shooting and without Valerie there

As Keller (2011) argued, children suffer what is called ambiguous loss when they have a guardian that suffers substance abuse and is physically or psychologically absent. This is a relational problem that occurs when there is no set ritual or public validation for the loss felt. The activities that Trenise associated with a family became nonexistent, as her oldest two siblings became the ones responsible for feeding her. Her attachments and social networks were disrupted upon entry into foster care, and abruptly one day she goes home to her mother, significantly older. Trenise has not properly developed a sense of identity and has not properly grieved her feelings. Even though she loves her mother, there is confusion in her role as to what she thinks and feels, as she struggles to socialize in her environment.

Hate groups such as the Creativity Movement, Kingdom Identity Ministries, and the Ku Klux Klan have a long history of racism, hatred, and radicalism. At first glance, a deep hatred towards a particular race or religious group seems to be the main, or only, reason that a person would join one of these groups, however, there are many factors aside from race that contribute to the decision to join a hate group. These additional factors include financial situations, the need to simplify a complicated reality, and a desire for acceptance or feeling of importance.

Amberly’s head was pounding now. She has had a headache for a month because her thoughts in her head were running crazy. She took a glance at her reflection in the mirror and reached out to touch the image of herself. A tear slowly rolled down her rosy cheek as the thoughts of choosing between her brother and best friend.

Hate speech has increasingly gotten worse over the past few years. What is Hate Speech? Hate Speech is speech that offends, threatens, or insults groups, based on race, color, religion, sexual orientation, or disability. Hate Speech has always existed in History but became and ongrowing problem when the internet was first introduced. Because the First Amendment states that everyone has the freedom of speech, it is assumed that throwing out racial slurs and being very biased is included in that right. Everyone has the right to voice their own opinion, but who gets to decide where to draw the line when it goes way too far? It is hard to determine who should be able to control and regulate those inflicting

The number of genocides committed in the history of the human race is inconceivable. In the Holocaust the minimum estimate of fatalities is five million, in the Holodomor Genocide the minimum was two million, in the Congo Genocide the minimum was three million, and this list could go on. Humanity has killed itself in massive numbers over and over again. Why, but for joy of the violence, of the death, and of the destruction? In “On the Pleasure of Hatred” William Hazlitt explores how humanity justifies these atrocities and what leads these atrocities to happen, which is in a word, hatred. Hazlitt claims that since humans inherently enjoy the act of hating, this causes them to hate themselves and create toxic societies. To

The author gives a personal childhood reflection in addressing discrimination. He illustrates a significant moment when he first experienced hate. To this seven year-old boy, this hate was uncalled for. The reader is able to walk through a memory lane of defining moments in

When my cousin died I was devastated and broken. To lose someone when she was only 1, caused me to look at life as something that is ever fleeting. To lose someone to something as preventable as asthma caused me to realize there are people dying every minute from preventable deaths and I can and should do something to prevent it. The loss of Amber made me rethink how I was living my life and my plans for my future. I miss her everyday and I wish to a god I don’t believe in to get her back, but without her death I don’t know who I would have become because it would not be the same person I am today.

Hate to be like this but let's be real with each other. This is not working. No one is that busy. Honestly we make time for what we want and it's been made clear I'm not a priority to you anymore. I refuse to be hanging around on the back burner. That's not fair to me or the other nice gentlemen I'm passing up to give you a fair chance. No hard feelings here. I just hate wasting my time waiting and on uncertainty. Best of luck on your feature.

My sister, Sylvia, was attached to my mother. I never knew what happened to her, one day she was there and the next she was gone. Ever since then my sister hasn’t been the same. I knew my mum was abused by my dad, every night, I could hear her piercing screams, which resembled Sylvia’s as he laughed at her
