On September 19, 2016, AEON publishes an article by Judith Lichtenberg, “How US prisons violate three principles of criminal justice”. Lichtenberg claims the United States prison system is a failure for society and brings to the table that for most of the time, it is against African Americans. The argument is prominent across America, Lichtenberg writes, but no one is standing up for the better of society. Therefore, she makes known that retribution is a major issue, leading to the type of quandaries we have with the Prison System. Three fundamental principles should control the utilization of incarceration as penalization. Lichtenberg argues everyone should have a fair chance in getting the right punishment, any malefactors, no matter the circumstances, that does the same crime should get the same verdict, and prisons should rehabilitate than eradicate, whether

Judy Rebick, in the newspaper The Globe and Mail which provides information for people across North America, wrote an article called Victims must speak out first (December 21, 2002), that suggests that after the Holocaust, mistreatment of Jews receded, but now that the horrors of the Holocaust are not as present as they were in the past, Anti-Semitism is re-emerging. Rebrick supported this assertion by revealing to readers that this ethnic hatred has returned after a long time without it, saying “There has been more discussion of anti-Semitism in Canada in the past two weeks than I can remember in my adult life. Earlier this month, three respected men on the left accused the Canadian left of anti-Semitism. And this week, a previously respected

The choice to study Livia Drusilla in depth was an easy decision. One of a few women to gain any sort of power in ancient Rome let alone the status that Livia ended up having near the end of her time. Livia herself is very controversial and is often depicted in one of two ways in most available sources. The first is that she was a very manipulative woman, that her caring housewife appearance and manner was all a façade and that she was responsible for the deaths surrounding the heirs to the throne paving the way for her son Tiberius to become emperor. The second depiction is that of a truly caring wife, of an individual that did her best to support her husband and family, who grieved over their deaths and who could not possibly have committed

You can see her getting thinner and thinner throughout the film. Towards the end of the film, she can touch her thumb and finger together. Ellen is withering away to just bones. The film really demonstrates what it is like to live with anorexia. Ellen goes out on a date with a former ‘rexie’ housemate, Luke (Actor Alex Sharp).

We know Annmarie and her family were Lutheran, because when Ellen goes to Lise’s funeral, she says, “It was the only time I have ever been in a Lutheran church” (Lowry, Online PDF). Lutherans look to the Bible for its commandments on how they should act. The Bible clearly is against lying. The Bible clearly states in Leviticus 19:11, “Do not lie. Do not deceive one another”. Annmarie disobeyed this commandment. She lied to her friend Ellen about her Great Aunt Birte. “So now I, too,am lying, she thought,and to my very best friend” (Lowry, Online PDF). The whole Johansen family lied by pretending Ellen was Lise. Ellen said, “Anyway, if they did, it would give me a chance to practice acting. I'd just pretend to be Lise” (Lowry, Online PDF). The

However, it’s understandable why the story of a young pubescent girl, being groomed by her paedophilic step-father and then engaging in a sexual relationship whilst embarking on a journey across America, didn’t sit well with many people, therefore was then banned from 1956-1959, for its ‘’obscenity ’’ and ‘’pornographic’’ content in France, United Kingdom, Argentina, South Africa, USA and New Zealand. The book has also been described as “highbrow pornography” and “absolutely disgusting” . But why is the book deemed so obscene and disgusting?
