Bloodchild Analysis

Identity that which we all struggle to find. Miklo is the very same case in Taylor Hackford’s Blood In Blood Out who struggles to prove himself as a Chicano due to his white skin however culturally Miklo is as Chicano as anyone in Onda. The most important part of this dynamic, is that when Miklo gets arrested for killing spider, a rival gang leader, the prison gang system is divided by race and skin color all which he is stuck in the middle of. In prison, is where he would meet Magic a member of spider’s gang which openly fought with Miklo’s gang Vatos Locos. They quickly become friends despite their previous conflicts and confrontations between the two gangs because as Popeye mentioned everything is determined by race. This is relevant as in

There Will Be Blood is a historical drama written and directed by P.T Anderson. The film explores themes of ambition, loneliness, lust for power, false personas, hatred, lack of faith, mistrust and loss of humanity. Anderson explores these themes through the characters of Daniel Plainview and Eli Sunday. In addition to character exploration, Anderson uses a variety of cinematic techniques in order to subtextually portray these themes. These techniques include, contrasting lighting, long shots, wide angles and mis en scene. The first themes to be explored in There Will Be Blood are ambition and loneliness. The film begins with a wide shot of a vast and open terrain. This signifies the emptiness of our setting. We meet the character of

Timothy B. Tyson, born 1959, had a unique childhood as the son of a Methodist minister who supported the civil rights movement. He accepted his parents’ liberal attitude, and struggled to reconcile it with the society around him – that of white supremacy and black oppression. Later, he attended the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and Emory University for his BA, and returned to Duke University to earn his PhD in history. He began his teaching career with US History while attending Duke, then switched to Afro-American Studies in 1994. Based on Tyson’s parenting and field of study, it can be expected to be a solid narrative that, while containing signs of white privilege, gives insight into how people can rise from oppression.

Of One Blood is a story about an African American character named Reuel Briggs, who is light enough to pass as white and manages to get into medical school. However, along with journey, he faces many challenges, including having to have to travel to Africa in an attempt to get away from poverty. W.E.B, Du Bios in his book The Soul of Black Folk discusses the hurdles confronted by African Americans. One of the main themes that are predominate in Of One Blood is the how great of a role identity plays in our lives. W.E.B Du Bois idea of the “double consciousness” and the “veil” that separates the black and white population adds depth to the theme of identity and challenges faced by people of color. This veil is where African American exited. WEB

The most commonly known gang in the area are the Bloods. According to many of the detectives in the office, they are the most vicious and most violent gangs they have ever encountered. State versus Gillens and Mercer are one of those encounters. The Bloods, or the United Blood Nation, was developed around 1972. The Crips were dominating the streets of L.A. and were battling with multiple street gangs. After a rumble with the street gang Pirus and murdering an L.A. Brim, the street gangs had enough of the Crip’s intimidation. They decided to unite all the street gangs which consisted of the Piru Street Boys in Compton, L.A. Brim, the Pueblos, the Bishops, Athens Park Boys, and the Denver Lanes. Soon enough they called their new gang the Bloods and took on the color red to show their opposition against the Crips (Savelli, 2002). In 1993, the Bloods made their way over to the East Coast and developed within the New York City jail system on Riker’s Island George Mochen Detention Center. It was formed as a means of protection for African American inmates from the Latin Kings (Savelli, 2002). Soon enough, the East Coast Bloods flooded out of the jail system and onto the streets of New York and New Jersey.

There are four blood types found in humans. These are A blood type which has the genotype either AA or AO, B blood type which has the genotype either BB or BO, AB blood type which has the genotype AB, and O blood type which has the genotype OO. These genotypes show a combination of complete dominance and codominance. A and B traits are dominant to the recessive O trait, however, the A trait is codominant to the B trait. Each blood type codes for certain antigens. A blood codes for the A surface antigen, B blood codes for the B surface antigen, AB blood codes for both the A and B surface antigen, and O blood does not code for a surface antigen. Therefore to determine one’s blood type a test can be performed

The purpose of this experiment is to identify the different blood types through the antigen and antibody reaction by using the anti- A, Anti- B and Anti- Rh serums we will be able to identify the different blood types. We will also discuss how this can be used in the clinical setting of this blood typing procedure, by doing so we will know how antigens and antibodies relate to the blood typing procedure in the real world settings.

Genetic testing is when tests are done on the blood and other tissue to find genetic disorders in an individual. It is used as a healthcare tool to detect gene variants associated to a certain disease or disorder, and is used non-clinically for paternity testing and forensics. There are many different methods of testing, usually done with a blood sample. Other methods include diagnostic testing, carrier testing, prenatal testing, pre-implantation genetic testing, newborn screening, pharmacogentic testing, and a few others.

When examining the several approaches of the Civil Rights Movement that are discussed in Blood Done Sign My Name, I found that no approach on its own would of accomplish something. Whether it was the nonviolent marches which were not able to seize the attention of the white authority, or the racially motivated violence which petrified whites, through the combination of these: radical, liberal, and conservatives; the Civil Rights Movement was able to push for what they strived.

I attended the student breakfast last Thursday, September 14th, 2017 from 10-11 am given by Heather Ann Thompson. Thompson is a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and historian for her book Blood In The Water which is even being made into a motion picture. The main point that she reiterates throughout is that when viewing the prison system in America, you have to view as part of your family. For example, if someone you loved killed someone you love dearly, would you sentence them to life in prison? Or, if it’s just a random person who messed up and made a mistake, should they serve 30 years in prison? Although, as she mentions that the prison system is complicated and uncomplicated at the same time, there is no clear and distinct solution, the current

Reading both of Hawthorn works “The Birthmark” and “Rappaccini's Daughter” I thought both gave a sense of horror and romance. When comparing the two stories I saw many similarities between the two. The story lines of both are similar considering both are dealing with a scientist that strives for perfection and can’t see the natural perfection in nature and humanity. Both scientists were willing to put their loved ones on the line for science and perfection. In “The Birthmark” Aylmer did not see the natural beauty in his wife Georgiana’s birthmark as society did, he wanted to take it away and change her into what he thought she should look like to meet his standards.

The birthmark serrling and the eye of the beholder are forms of media that deal with the same ideas of personal beauty and societal views in this paper I will compare and contrast both of these texts. Where we see that they are more different than they are the same

In the story, it tells us Aylmer, the husband is a scientist who believed in nature. Georgiana is the wife, who has a small red birthmark on her check. Most men found this mark is attractive to them. However, Aylmer thinks it would make Georgiana look flawless if she remove it. In the whole story, Aylmer is trying to persuade Georgiana to remove the birthmark, finally the wife took the elixir and after she woke up, the birthmark was gonna and she tells Aylmer she is dying. After reading the story, I think the husband it too obsess with the science and he is trying to force his wife to do something that he believed. At the beginning of the story, it said “in the latter part of the last century”, which means the story took place in the 17th century.

Hawthorne, Nathaniel “The Birthmark” Literature and the Writing Process, edited by Elizabeth McMahan, believed that Aylmer’s belief is that to have life there must be imperfection and losing imperfection was losing life. She explains as she shows us how “The Birthmark” which is a story filled with symbolisms and irony. Hawthorne displayed this belief in his short story "The Birthmark”, which is about a scientist named Aylmer who becomes disgusted by his wife, Georgiana’s tiny birthmark on her left cheek and kills her in the process of trying to remove it. He sees it as a flaw in his beautiful wife. Georgiana knows that her birthmark disgusts him. She began to feel disgusted by this birthmark when she realizes her husband’s disgust with it; she had never felt hate for herself until she realizes his feelings toward her birthmark. He asks if she has ever considered having it removed. This is not something she never looked at this way before, considering that other people in her life, especially men, had always seen it as a “charm”. Aylmer was not trying to just get rid of Georgiana's birthmark, rather, he was trying to change nature, He believed he had control over it. That's where things took a toll for and up for the worst. Aylmer had a hard time accepting imperfections in life.

Given that blood spatter analysis is an emergent field, with rapidly occurring developments have significant probative implications for the court system, this project will seek to examine the multi-faceted elements of blood spatter analysis to provide an overview of the field’s different dimensions. Focusing on technical developments, analytical interpretation and court relevance, the project will propose that blood spatter’s analysis as a mainstream element of the CSI toolkit results from the combination of physical sciences and analytical rigor which lies at its core. Beginning with questions of technical and physical science, the project will
