This story is set in the year 1930, in Maycomb County, Alabama, and even though racism was abolished, the people still believed that colored people were bad people. Without racism still existing then, many things wouldn’t have happened. Since there was racism, a man was accused to be guilty for a crime he didn’t commit because he was black. Which allowed the actual guilty and dangerous person out on the loose, which gave him the chance to try to kill two kids. But without racism, the the guilty man would be put in jail and the whole story would be over.

In the Scottsboro Case, there are nine black teenage boys that were falsely charged as rapists. The court case ended with a judgment against nine black teenage boys who were accused of raping two white women (Ruby Bates and Victoria Price), (Sandbox Networks, Inc., 2015). Two groups of men were traveling on the train a group of whites and a group of blacks. The white men attempted to force the black men off the train. The white men reported to the sheriffs that they were attacked by nine black men. Two women on the train falsey accused the black men of rape. All but one of the black men were sentenced to death for the crime (Wormser, 2002).

Agatha Christie once said, “Every murderer is probably somebody’s good friend.” Unfortunately for Max, his good friend was his murderer. Ray was invited to a housewarming party because he was considered to be one of his good friends. It is very clear that after studying the case, Ray Leetuff is Max’s murderer because of his motives, testimonies, and the physical evidence found that binds him to the crime.

Should personal vengeance be accepted in society? If personal vengeance did not interfere with the order of “polite” society, then the answer would be yes in my view. One of my criteria for proper justice is orderly conduct. In the context of the movie, personal vengeance leads to discord. The character of Carl Lee Hailey, a distraught black father whose daughter has been beaten, raped, and left for dead by two white men, takes vengeance into his own hands and kills the two men. This occurs early in the move and events snowball after that. The brother of one of the two murdered men decides to bring back the Ku Klux Klan to enact vengeance upon Carl Lee and anyone who supports Mr. Hailey. The acts of the KKK enrage many citizens of the town. Two groups are pitted against each other at the courthouse as hearings take place. One group sides with Carl Lee and is composed mainly of blacks. The other group wants Carl Lee punished and

     In A Time To Kill, by John Grisham, two drunken white men violently raped, beat, and nearly killed a 10-year-old black girl named Tonya Hailey. Her father, in a clouded rage, executed the two rapists with an M-16 on their way out of the courthouse. His vigilante form of justice was not well taken by many in prejudiced Ford County, Mississippi. On the other hand, he had lots of support from the black community and from any white person whom dared to step into his shoes. A young, thirty-something lawyer named Jack Brigance was hired as his defense. He personally hoped it would give him national recognition, but his outlook turned sour when an all-white jury was drawn to decide on the fate of this Negro man. As

We all pollute whether it's just fertilizer or a giant factory. Fertilizer gets into the water from rain draining it into a sewer. The sewer drains it into a larger body of water and the fertilizer will kill all of the fish. Also, the same thing happens when you throw something on the ground and when you throw something in the water. Also, you can stop using fertilizer before it rains to prevent this.

After the young girl was raped, the two white men were arrested and taken to trial. During the

This story hits hard on the act and rule utilitarianism in which the white majority takes advantage of the black minority and perpetrates heinous acts on those thought to be unequal with unequal punishment (Rosenstand, 2013). It brings up how rights are distributed and classified in each race even though as humans they should have equal rights. It is prevalent when the trials jury is picked, community members join the KKK and riot, and separation of whites and blacks in the courtroom during the trial. The final scene of the trial hits this point out of the park when the lawyer brings the jury through the events of the daughter’s ordeal and ends with, “…now imagine she’s white!” (A Time to Kill,

The leader I chose to do this project on is Jack Welch. Jack Welch was a chairmen and CEO of a very successful company known as General Electric. He started in the company in 1960 and he started from the bottom, as a junior chemical engineer for General Electric. He was with the company for about 40 years before he retired a very wealthy man, but through those 40 years he did a lot of things as a leader to improve General Electrics and helped making them into a very successful company. He helped in shaping General Electric into a powerhouse. I chose Jack Welch as my leader for this project because he is a very inspiring leader, who worked his way up from the bottom of the company to the CEO of General Electrics and performed very well as a

John Grisham’s fictional legal thriller A Time to Kill follows the struggles of lawyer Jake Brigance as he tries to convince a jury in rural Mississippi to acquit his client from murder. Jake starts as an ambitious, persistent, and young lawyer who decides to help Carl Lee, an African-American father who killed the two white rapists who assaulted his daughter, mainly for the fame and fortune he hoped to earn. However, his motivation and tenacity eventually compromise his family, his property, and his health. His case is very polarized, bringing radicals of both sides outside the courthouse during the trial. Carl Lee kills two members of the Klu Klux Klan, a white supremacist group, who subsequently seek revenge throughout the novel. The increasing

A monumental event that spurred interracial unity to resist an attack on fundamental human rights. During a pivotal time in American history this case represented more than a rape trial. It was the views of an old American versus the new, free American that was surging forward. Even with an abundance of evidence, the verdict was clouded by race and politics several times. With the evidence at hand, Norris must be innocent of rape.
