Hate List Quotes

In the beginning the class we were assigned groups and as a whole we had to find the literal point or subject of the readings that were due for the day and relate them to identity, attitude, or prejudice. This was to allow us to prepare to write our second major essay we had for writing 1. We were assigned the Andrew Sullivan readings, “what’s so bad about hate?”. The short excerpt from the article stated various situations in which the actions were categorized as a regular crime or a hate crime. The author then continued to discuss how adding a hate crime just complicates the verdict because no one except the individual knows why they committed the crime. Throughout the reading as a group we categorized the reading as one of identity. Everyone

In Warriors Don’t Cry, the theme of inner strength and perseverance is profusely prominent. There are many examples of this including Melba getting past her suicidal thoughts, becoming a warrior, and the trust she put into Link. Each of these examples are situations that Melba was put into that most people wouldn’t be able to survive, let alone coming out and succeeding in life after. It is amazing to see how she persevered through every obstacle in her life and still came out on top.

The party uses Two Minutes Hate to inspire hatred and fear towards Goldstein as opposed to themselves. To start, the two minutes hate uses the “mob mentality” to a assure everyone has the same mindset. This becomes really effective because a human has a need to be a part of something or to do what everyone else. We can see Winston follow the mob mentality as he says "The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but, on the contrary, that it was impossible to avoid joining in" (Orwell 16). This quote shows Winston’s mentality of not being able to be an individual and his mentality was to join what everyone else was doing. Winston was aware he was being manipulated but still decided to join the crowd.

Throughout The Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford, I sympathized with Keiko and Henry the most. Although both are minority races, they are discriminated against differently. Keiko identifies as 'American', but that does not seem to matter as her family and the rest of the citizens of Japanese descent are whisked into armed, prison-like camps by U.S. officials. I can relate to her since I have been discriminated against because of my ethnicity. It seems easy for some to make stereotypes about other races, especially in a time where everyone is looking for somewhere to place the blame. For example, the discrimination is evident when Keiko and Henry try to buy a record- Keiko is not even acknowledged because she is Japanese.

During the second World War, an olympic record holder, Louie Zamperini, was one of the few men that got shot down into the ocean and was stranded for 47 days on a lonely, little raft. The great American hero we all have heard of didn’t start out like you would have thought. He was a young scoundrel who was influenced by his brother to run for something better than away from is problems. After years of running and going to the German Olympics to set the best lap run in the 5,000 meters, Louie had gone into the Air Force and had gotten into trouble at a Japanese POW camp after a crash. The book Unbroken, written by Laura Hillenbrand, expresses Louie’s life exceptionally well, especially

In the book The Hate List by Jennifer Brown, the story is told from the point of view of Valerie Leftman, the girlfriend of Nick Levil. Nick shot multiple people in their school and injured more. Valerie unknowingly helped him create the list of victims. I think the book could have been as interesting if it was told from the point of view of Ginny Baker. Ginny Baker was shot by Nick in the face. She had to have multiple plastic surgeries to reconstruct something that even remotely resembled a face. “’I can’t sit here without thinking about… about…’ she sucked in a breath and then let it out with a stream an anguish that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. ‘Why did they let her come back?’” (Brown 69). Ginny is traumatized by the

Emerson states that “envy is ignorance; imitation is suicide” (370). During World War II, John Knowles wrote an amazing novel called A Separate Peace. Throughout the novel, Gene, the main character, shows extreme jealously towards other characters. A Separate Peace shows how Gene’s jealously affects himself, his relationship with other characters, and his ability to return to Devon to find peace.

Have you ever been stranded by yourself in the wild? Well in the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen Brian got stranded. Brian couldn't have done it if he didn't have food. I think the two most important Ah Ha moment is when the figured out which way his father was.

The author of Hate List, Jennifer Brown, used many interesting writing techniques to add a unique touch to the novel. The novel is about a girl named Valerie Leftman who must deal with the aftermath of a school shooting that her boyfriend, Nick Vel, caused. Before the shooting occurred Nick and Valerie had a list of people they hated called the Hate List. Unfortunately, this was the list that Nick used that day to pick his victims. Although she wasn’t the one pulling the trigger, Valerie had some contribution to the shooting due to the list. This causes her to have grudges going back to school and trying to fit in with the crowd.

Quote: "'I don't blame you for being angry,' Christoph said. Then he showed them the catalog he used to order HeLa cells. There was a long list of the different HeLa clones anyone could buy for $167 a vial. 'You should get that,' Christoph said to Deborah and Zakariyya. 'Yeah, right,' Deborah said. 'What I'm gonna do with a vial of my mother cells?' She laughed. 'No, I mean you should get the money. At least some of it'" (Skloot, 266-267).

“When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile.” Whenever I think of Dumby Red, this quote is the first thing that comes to mind. Not only did he often say the quote himself, but it also perfectly depicted who he was. No matter what, Dumby always tried to see the good in every situation and always tried to help me do the same. That’s one of the many reasons why Dumby and I were close. He was more than a best friend to me. He was an older brother. Someone I looked up to and trusted. He was the one who encouraged me to see the bright side of things day after day. He was the one who always had my back. So to now know that Dumby has breathed his last at such an early age, I can’t deny the fact

1. Of the "Top 10 All-time Stupid Quotes," I found number 4 the most interesting. In this quote, Sean Covey says," This 'telephone' has too many shortcoming to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us." I found this quote interesting because nowadays, who communicates by writing letters. Everyone has a phone and that is how we communicate with each other. If we don't talk to each other by text, then it is by a simple phone call that we receive instantly, rather waiting about a week for a letter to come in the mail. I couldn't image having to write letters to speak to anyone. Using phones is so much for simpler.

The double revenge cycle of the play portrays an escalation in violence, creating an environment where the perpetrator seeks to act out something worse than they themselves experienced; thus, the sexual nature of the crimes committed against Lavinia are seized upon by Titus. Tamora says to Lavinia before her rape: ‘Shall I rob my sweet sons of their fee. | No, let them satisfy their lust on thee’ (2.2.179-80). This is an act of symbolic violence later echoed by Titus, as he says to Chiron and Demetrius that he will ‘bid that strumpet, your unhallowed dam, | Like to the earth to swallow her own increase’ (5.2.190-1). The escalation in symbolic violence correlates to the increase in subjective violence; threats are fulfilled by violent acts,

What do the words Cracker, Kike, Nigger, Jap, Chinc, Faggot, Queer, Dike and Spic all have in common? They are all derogatory remarks that humans call one another on a daily basis. Why can people use these terms and not have to worry about receiving any punishment or any ridicule? The reason is because of the First Amendment right of free speech. The first amendment gives people the right to basically say anything that comes to mind whether it is something nice or something like a derogatory remark. The first amendment is good and freedom of speech has its advantages like most things, but however, it also has its disadvantages. The disadvantages are that people can say words that are extremely hurtful
