The essay that was read, "Cry 'Havoc'", argued that the many conflicting narratives on riots has a great impact on the common people. I agree with the points supported in the essay. The people who hear about riots on the news or other sources can easily influece one's perspective and understanding. This differed between the two time periods distinguished in this piece. Ancient Romans only heard news from a greatly known politician, Tacitean. Today, the London and Baltimore riots could've been reported over the news by bias reporters. Bias reported can fail to let the listeners know both sides of a story, changing their opinion greatly. These conflicting narratives are a major reason why disagreements are made over riots.
Mack and Nelson begin their essay by taking a look at the “borderline psychotic” society of Vancouver (Mack and Nelson 209). The essay discusses the alienated community the city has become along with the foolishness of the youth. This information soon becomes misleading as the blame from the riot is dismissed from the city and is placed elsewhere. The outlook of the frenzy is taken from a much more expansive approach and this is evident in the statement: “It’s a problem that, as always, starts from the very top” (210). Mack and Nelson note that rather than the rioter’s being the problem, the economy and politicians are at fault
In April of 2015 a man named Freddie Gray was taken into custody by the Baltimore Police Department. While he was being arrested police officers beat Freddie Gray to the point of hospitalization. The next day Freddie passed away and the city of Baltimore erupted. Protesters flooded the streets which caused violent riots and looting. Soon cars were being set on fire, as well as local businesses and even retirement homes. Fox News and CNN both attempt to provide insight on the falling apart of the city of Baltimore, but CNN covers mainly one aspect, goes for the reader’s emotions, and lacks analyzation of the problem to do so persuasively. Fox News, on the other hand, analyzes the problem, offers a solution, and presents an overlooked cause for the riots.
In the 1968 and th 2015 riots there are some similarities both riots started peacefully then turned to violence, in the 1968s the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Tennessee triggered the 1968s riot and In 2015 Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old Black man who was a resident of Baltimore was harshly beat and arrested and placed in a police van without the seatbelt on him and a week later he died the officers were responsible for his death. As I say on the top both riot started peacefully protests in the 1968s riot children were also involved in demonstrations. In the 2015 riot mostly adults between 20 to 30- years-old were involved. In the 1968s riot residents were upset about poverty and suffering from the riot and in the 2015s riot residents feared living their homes.
On an early Sunday morning, police sirens rang out on 12th Street near Clairmount waking up near by neighbors. Police rushed an establishment known as a blind pig, or afterhours party. As police dealt with the eighty or so partiers, the growing crowd’s curiosity quickly turned to anger as they discovered the outrageous police actions. Things only escalated into what is known as the Detroit ’67 riots. However, there are many different perspectives on this event. Some consider the event more of a rebellion or an uprising. It might even be something entirely different. As the mysteries of the 1967 events are unraveled, perspectives often change. What might have once been considered a riot can quickly be changed to a rebellion or uprising. All it takes is some critical thinking.
Looking through history, I’ve noticed that riots and protests now, are close to the riots and protests back in the late 1700’s. For example, Now there are women's rights protests and african american protests vs back then, when people were fighting for freedom.
A 'riot' is commonly defined as a disorderly behaviour, which often involve violence and the destruction of property (Andrews, 2014, p. 292). Riots can be viewed from a Conservative point of view and from a Radical point of view. Conservatism and Radicalism are both political ideologies. Although ideologies are 'explanatory frameworks that help to make sense of society' (Andrews, 2014, p. 306), conservatism and radicalism contrast in many ways. Conservatism is associated with wisdom, limited politics, and natural hierarchy, legitimising the existing order. Radicalism is linked to progress, universal rights and popular sovereignty, suggesting alternative to the existing order (The Open University, 2016b).
¡§Texts both inform us of the social identities available to us, and problematize them; both police our social selves and subvert them.¡¨
Protests riots in the United States has proven to an issue for both the country’s financial strength and the unity of the nation. With the presence of social injustices, combined with the increased impact of social media propaganda, protests riots are beginning to reach an all time high. Protest riots destroy individual communities and businesses, jeopardizes the safety of others and taints the protest’s cause by resorting to civil disobedience. Action must be done in order to prevent these random acts of violence from continuing after every social hot topic. The goal is not to prevent citizens from protesting; in fact, this should be encouraged. The goal is to change the way the protests are handled from both the citizens and authority perspectives, in order to prevent these protests from escalating into something dangerous.
In his speech on the riots, Cameron discounted social conditions such as poverty and unemployment as reasons for the 2011 riots, and focussed instead on criminality and morality ‘(Andrews, G. 2014). This essay will compare and contrast this conservative view of the riots with the radical view. A riot is an occasion involving violence directed at property, persons or authority. The current understanding of the term riot dates back to the fourteenth century, when it began to suggest violence and disorder among the population. By the eighteenth-century violence and disorder was on the rise in England, which resulted in Parliament passing the Riot Act of 1715. Conservatism is characterised for their resistant to change, although when it is necessary,
In this report I’m going to be talking about how protesting in the United States has gotten out of hand. I believe that protest is completely okay, because it uses your right of free speech. But I also believe that some forms of protest are not protest at all, they are riots. I do not think that burning buildings, or hurting people's livelihood is a protest, it's a riot.
Was the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the American Government unavoidably necessary? This is what Samuel J. Walker intends to uncover in his publication. His argument is that the justifications made by the American Government after the dropping of the Atomic bombs were gross exaggerations and that the reasoning behind their ultimate decision is complicated. He contends that because of their lack of knowledge of the actual damage that the force of the
In the first story, “Cairo: My City, our Revolution” It States how violent rebellion can be because it states in lines 74 -82 “Eight months ago some young protester from 6 April group had been arrested in Alexandra for singing the national anthem, it was instigator the prosecution said. We sang it. On 28 January, standing at the momentous crossroads”.
Wow! I feel bad for your sister. In the book (pg. 507), it states that people with panic disorder may feel that they are having a heart attack, so I am glad to hear that your sister got the right help. Reading your post and this section on panic disorder, I remember that I use to have specific experiences that sends me into a panic mode quite often. The pain feels really sharp where my heart is and I would have a hard time breathing.
4.2 Consider a "CCA-type" extension of the definition of secure message authentication codes where the adversary is provided with both a Mac and Vrfy oracle.

I guess when I was asleep the electricity must have came back on but where is Misha. When I woke up I was surprised Misha was gone. I thought Misha was just going to steal some food for us to eat but I still did not see him. Then I ran out of the stable look for Misha and I look all over Warsaw. I walked all in alley walls and buried down building looking for Misha.Then I was so desperate I started to ask people. Did you see a little boy about 8 walking around the streets? I asked the woman with a fox head coat but she didn’t talk to me. After no one answer it was like I was not even there I was invisible. I went back to the stable and started to think where MIsha might be and it popped in my head. Then I went to Doctor Korczak home because Misha want to
