Birmingham Jail Reflection

King discusses the morals and types of laws, those “just and unjust”. By explaining laws and using reason to portray situations when laws can and should be broken, King guides the clergymen through his rationalization. To strengthen the sympathetic pathos in his letter, King discusses historical people and events and because something is legal, it doesn't make it moral, like segregation. He emphasizes that although everything Hitler did, such as murdering millions of Jews and cruel scientific experiments, was legal, it was not morally right. "It was illegal to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. But I am sure that if I had lived in Germany during that time I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal." King is comparing American segregation to Hitler's anti-Semitic Germany. King quotes St. Augustine, “an unjust law is no law at all.” Because King comes off as being moral and fair, ethos is established. He is seen as an integral leader. Through this, King is able to argue why he links segregation to being an unjust law.

Under the UN Charter, the Security Council has primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security and is argued to have power to intervene in the most serious issues which disrupt world order.

DESCRIPTION: The United Nations is an international organization established to promote intercontinental support. Therefore, the main role of the United Nations is to maintain international peace and security, to develop friendly relations among nations, to promote respect for human rights and to coordinate aid in disaster situations and to provide help on global issues such as drug trafficking and the environment.

Along with logos and ethos strategies, King uses pathos to cause declarative imagery and false flattery. King understands why those who haven’t been hurt by segregation “but when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your

To begin, it is important to first reflect on the childhood experiences and the culture that King was raised. In his book, God and Human Dignity, Burrow poignantly notes, “Martin Luther King was a human being, no more or less so than any member of his family tree, or any other human being.” This is to say that the significance of King should not be entirely placed upon King as an individual, but on the context that King was raised. Therefore, it is important to briefly illustrate the racial landscape that King inherited as well as touch on major influential experiences that contributed to King’s ethical and theological development.

Peacekeeping has proven to be one of the most effective tools available to the UN to assist host countries navigate the difficult path from conflict to peace. Peacekeeping has unique strengths, including legitimacy, burden sharing, and an ability to deploy and sustain troops and police from around the globe, integrating them with civilian peacekeepers to advance multidimensional mandates. UN Peacekeepers provide security and the political and peace building support to help countries make the difficult, early transition from conflict to peace.

King begins his first paragraph responding back to the clergymen about the statements given towards him.

When we were told that we would be going into Muscogee County Jail to interview inmates, I had many mixed emotions: anxious, excited, curiosity. When registering for this class, I was not told what I would be doing while taking this course so being told we were going in the jail was pretty shocking and surprising. I remember sitting there and thinking how am I, someone who is not even a criminal justice major (I am a sociology major), suppose to have a conversation with an inmate about what is going on within the system not knowing anything about the system. The feeling of inadequacy was real and led to a state of confusion and thinking I couldn't relate to these inmates or do the job I was sent in there to do.

This question was the initiation of my first interaction upon returning to my legal intern position with the Scott King Group law firm for the second summer in a row. At the time, I had never even seen a Petition for Expungement, nor did I fully understand what it was or what purpose it served. I had certainly never through the process of constructing one on my own. When I responded to the above question in the negative the associate attorney immediately handed me a client’s file and a hardcover copy of the Indiana Code. I was then left with nothing but a few words of encouragement and the overbearingly dreadful feeling that I was going to end my first day on a bad note that would set the tone for the remainder of the summer if I was not entirely

The United Nations Security Council has a very integral role to play in promoting Global

The United Nations is an organization which helps provide countries with security, protection for human rights, promoting law rules, and protecting civilians. The United Nations also takes part in other events such as supporting election organizations. Their main objective is to help countries that have conflicts, and solve the problem or in other words to create peace. The United Nations are currently working on 16 different peacekeeping operations, this organization has had success over 60 years. Just like having success the peacekeepers also have some challenges to deal with. Some of the challenges are: Human rights, civilian protection, environment sustainability and much more like these. Even though the United Nations has a great military, one single mission consist of more than just military troops, others include police officers, administrators, human rights monitors, and economists.

Majoring in Criminology, Law & Society has allowed me to explore issues related deeply to health justice. Classes within the major like: Race, Ethnicity and Social Control, Miscarriages of Justice and Community Context Crime- have illustrated to me the devastating effects brought on by the inequalities within our health system and especially within prisons where racial groups are targeted and subjected to this inequality. I previously did work with the Woodland Police Department, where I learned more about these issues and designed a research project to explore the effects of limited healthcare within prison systems, since we know that initially health benefits rise while in jail, but they get worse as time goes on because they do not offer enough services to adequately care for people. Due to limited resources and time, I was unable to go farther with this research project, but this something I would like to explore in the future.

Since its establishment, the United Nations has played a vital role in total global development. As stated by the UN, their roles and responsibilities consist of maintaining international peace and security through the prevention of conflict and coming up with solutions if ever in conflicting scenarios through peacekeeping efforts. Their UN Security Council is the primary subsidy for international peace and security; promoting sustainable development by working to bridge social, economic, or cultural disparities, and “promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all” (What we do, United Nations); protecting human rights and making such a key aspect and value of the Organization; upholding international law through the usage of courts, multilateral treaties, and tribunals to ensure that international law is being upheld; and to deliver humanitarian aid, which is one of the main principles the UN was founded on: “to achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character” (What we do, United Nations).

Article 1(1) of the UN Charter sets the maintenance of international peace and security as one of the main purposes of the United Nations. With this objective in mind Article 24(1), “in order to ensure prompt and effective action” appoints the UNSC as the organ primarily responsible for the “maintenance of international peace and security”.

The main responsibility of the Security Council is to maintain international peace and security, with responsibility given to the council to determine if and where a peacekeeping operation should be deployed. The decision of
