Breakfast Club Identity

A past that has been hovering over his life. He gives us the idea that he is not happy with who he has become, and it was his wrong doing that made it that way.

The Breakfast Club is an inspiring tale of five adolescents: Brian, Andrew, Claire, John Bender, and Allison, from diverse backgrounds that unite over a course of eight grueling hours in mandatory Saturday detention. These five individuals come from different social groups and a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds are present, but in the end they discover that they are more alike than they assumed.

Bender thrives off of rebellion. The dysfunction of his home life has shaped him into a reckless young man. The audience is also introduced to Claire, whom of which radiates privilege. She's a girl who is given everything she wants. Her dismay stems from the somewhat selfish behavior of her parents, so no one has ever called out her concided

The character wanted to be able to redo the days of when he was younger in his old age and that wasn’t possible because he was still missing his identity and his purpose in life.

The Breakfast Club was an extraordinary film that dealt with teenagers in detention. Although it looked like a regular movie, it had deep meanings involved with it. The movie showcases a circle of teens who are completely different from each other. At first they didn’t interact with one another, but as the movie goes on they begin to become close friends. The Breakfast Club does a great job at exemplifying the dynamics of a group in society because there are so many associations of people who interact with each other even if the interests are completely different. The characters in the movie move from an out group to an in group because they all felt like outsiders towards each other, but as time was going on in detention they were starting to really like each other. They became an in group towards the end of the movie because they made their own grouping, which they referred to it as “The Breakfast Club”.

Unintelligent people are very sympathetic. In addition to these, he also never changes, he is static, and he is a flat character. All he wants is to get more respect in society.

I am reading To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, and I am on page 208. The book is about kids that go through their lives. In this journal I will be evaluating what mob scene is and why Jem stands up for his father. I will also be characterizing Atticus. To start off I will be talking about the mob scene and why Jem stood up for his father. Jem stood up for his father because he knew something bad was about to happen and he knew he needed to kind of defuse the situation. Jem also stood up cause he saw fear in his father’s eyes that he has not yet seen in his lifetime. When he was in the middle standing up he knew in the long run he was protecting his father and sister. Why did the mob leave? The mob left because of scout was talking to Mr.

The movie The Breakfast Club takes viewers on a comedic tour of the ups and downs of adolescence. The Breakfast Club, directed by John Hughes, focuses on the events that unfold between five very different high school students during a Saturday detention. Even though the movie was shot in the 1980 's the characters portrayal is still relatable in a way to a lot of people today. Director John Hughes takes us on a comedic ride with what seems like another typical "teen movie" while still portraying a few life lessons along the way and exposing some truths behind stereotyping.

The documentary “On the Way to School” confirms its importance from its opening title page. “Too often we forget how lucky we are to go to school,” To prove this point, the movie follows children from three continents during their daily journeys “toward knowledge.” Director Pascal Plisson alternates the stories of four groups of children living in Kenya, Morocco, Argentina, and India as they leave their homes with their books, excited for school. During, this documentary Plisson applied many examples of ethos, logos, and pathos.

A headstrong young woman, she defies her parents by dating a Communist, cares about social issues, and is personally interested in improving the lives of black Americans. Wright gives little information about whether or not her political convictions are solidly grounded or just enjoys following the excitement of her radical boyfriend. However, Wright's portrayal of communism in relation to a young white female allows for a slight spread of Communist propaganda. She is likeable and her desire to help blacks like Bigger is certainly sincere. Nevertheless, she is unaware of Bigger's feelings, and, despite her good intentions, she acts in a racist manner, which speaks of white women as a whole and their blindness to understand exactly what it means to struggle as a black American. Though Mary's intentions are essentially good, she gives no thought to the fact that Bigger might be surprised and confused by such unprecedented treatment from the wealthy white daughter of his employer. She treats Bigger not as an individual whose friendship must be earned, but as a representative of the black race. Mary simply assumes that Bigger will embrace her friendship, as she seems to think her political views guarantee her right to his companionship.

Self- identity is a significant part of someone’s life. Self- identity is how you view yourself in the world. The website, more-selfesteem.com says, “Your personal identity is the way that you see yourself and is closely related to your self-image. It is very important to you because it will affect the way you feel about yourself and how you behave in challenging situations.” Your personal identity includes self- identity is especially critical for teenagers facing critical judgment from their peers. In the book, Thirteen Reasons Why, Hannah Baker’s life was changed by three details. Hannah’s change in self-identity, which eventually led to her suicide, was caused by her having to move, who she was as a person, and how people perceived her.

In The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, Jeannette’s life is one that may seem hard to relate to, but it’s actually not that much different than mine. Thanks to today’s society, the constant need to “fit in” molds more people’s personalities and looks than them actually wanting to be themselves. If I don’t dress a certain way, I’m not beautiful. If my personality is different and unique, I’m weird. If I care about my grades and strive for success, I’m a nerd.

1)A group role is the part a member plays in a group, as a function of your traits, personality, your expectation, expectations of others in the group. and who you are as an individual. Each member in the Breakfast Club has had an input into the story line and there are multiple characters with different roles, inputs and circumstances and all of them interacting to make this film quite interesting. Lets start off with the most deviant of them all.

After Roberta found out that Twyla worked there she and the two men she was with laughed at her. Roberta also mentioned that they were all going to see Jimi Hendrix (7). Roberta and Twyla met up again at a grocery store. This time Roberta went up to Twyla to talk to her. Twyla remembered Roberta not wanting to talk to her and only getting greeted with a wow (9). Now Roberta is different than what she was at Howard Johnson’s. Her hair is slick, she dresses like she’s rich, and she lives in a rich neighborhood. Twyla is upset by this because she says that everything is so easy for them and they think they own the world (9). Twyla confronted Roberta about pretending like she didn’t know her at Howard Johnson’s. Roberta responded "Oh, Twyla, you know how it was in those days: black-white. You know how everything was" (13). Through these meetings it is known that Twyla and Roberta are still completely separated by race and class. Despite Roberta being friends with Twyla, she still ignored her and laughed at her for being who she is in front of the two men. She may not have wanted them to know that she’s friends with a poor girl who is of another race and who did not even know who Jimi Hendrix was. Roberta wanted to keep a secret that she associated with someone like Twyla. Twyla saying that they get everything and they think they own the world could be her realizing that the opposite race does not even need to work

Income inequality remains a provocative buzzword in today’s business world. As I pondered and prepared for this week’s written assignment I was reminded of the Occupy Wall Street movement that occurred several years ago. That movement was concerned with economic inequality and wealth distribution within the United States, specifically between the wealthiest 1% of the population versus the other 99%. That wealthiest 1% of course includes many corporate CEOs. It is no secret that a corporation’s executive compensation has traditionally exceeded the compensation of the average worker. This generates questions about whether this difference is ethical and whether or not this is a valid reward distribution system. After my readings and research, I am in support of the current executive compensation model for being both ethical and acting as a valid reward distribution system.
