I Am Malala Positive Thinking

In addition, Malala changed her name to Gul Makai while she was writing blog posts for the BBC. This shows that she is persistent because she did whatever it took to make the world aware what was happening around her. Also, Malala has started to post and blogging for the BBC news about being treated like a slave under the Taliban’s threat to oppose her education. This means, that although this can get her hurt or killed she still continued to fight for women’s rights and for her education. Lastly, after all the threats her family had received, she was frightened because the Taliban would go after her father and did not think they would actually harm a child. She then was shot in the head when she was on the school bus on the way home and survived. This explains that this was worth it because many people had heard her speech and did not give up at all for her

After Malala got shot, she believed this was her second chance at life, but this life was not hers, it was to come to aid for others. Instead of making her weak the bullet made Malala stronger than ever. In her book I am Malala by Malala Yousafzai; Malala talks about her life and her fight for education. Malala states in her book “It feels like this life is not my life. It’s a second life. People have prayed to God to spare me and I was spared for a reason -- to use my life for helping people.” After Malala was shot by the Taliban since then she has been helping girls all around the world. Many girls have a right to education because of Malala. Malala co-founded Malala Fund with her

On the other hand, some people argue that negativity is the best response to conflict. People say this because they may want to use violence or yell. They also might want to look intimidating. Many people think that the best and only response to conflict is negative words and actions. People who are pessimistic may tend to make the conflict bigger, start another conflict, or not solve the original conflict. Although negativity may seem the easiest way to solve the conflict, it is not because of these

I AM MALALA is the exceptional journey of a family torn apart by terrorism, who vows to the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of remarkable parents who have a relentless love for their daughter in a society where sons are more significant. I remember Malala, as a very talented young woman with a great deal of virtue, when she has her mind set on something there is no stopping her, for example when the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, where she lived with her family, their was one girl and the only girl who repudiated against them and refused to keep quiet on her rights and the rights of all people to acquire an education. Malala Yousafzai, She tries to bring new light to an old world country.

You should try to handle conflict situations by remaining calm, ending the conflict before it escalates and remaining respectful of others. You should try to demonstrate active listening and discuss the situation in a calm and rational manner to try and resolve the conflict.

hen a conflict arises persevere and come upon the perspective as for where positivity can liquidate any obstacle in your way.

How can people best respond to conflicts is a question commonly asked by people going through a difficult situation without any knowledge of how to respond properly to a certain conflict. The reality is: there is no solid answer to this question. It all depends on what your conflict is, and of course in what position you are. According to the Cambridge Dictionary, a conflict is an active disagreement, as between opposing opinions or needs[1], and according to the Merriam Webster Dictionary the definition of conflict is: a struggle for power[2] , so without a doubt, what people want as a result in a conflict is to have power over the problem, to have control.

For many children in the camp, their parents come home to the lifeless barracks every night from low paying jobs, and look at their children with ashamed faces. Before the Japanese Americans were forced to live in this relocation center, most of them have never committed a single crime in their lives, and now they are forced to live in a wasteland, everything changed when they stepped foot on the boiling dirt of Manzanar, away from their peaceful neighborhoods, away from equality, away from freedom. In the camp the Japanese Americans felt as if they have spent years within the barbed fences. Now it was the young boys turn, he picked up the dust covered bat, and swept the dirt off the home plate with his

One approach to respond to conflict is shown in the thoughts and actions of Anne Frank. In the story, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, Anne’s solution to make the better of her situation was demonstrated. For instance, her diary entry, dated Saturday, July 11, 1942, describing her living space at the Secret Annex, noticed, “Up to now our bedroom, with its blank walls, was very bare [...] I was able to plaster the wall with pictures. It looks much more cheerful” (Frank 19). This represents a particular action in which Anne made to

The internment camps these Japanese Americans had been taken into treated them very poorly. The living conditions they were experiencing at the time were detrimental to their health. In chapter four, page twenty two, the book states “Food would spoil from being left out

Conflict has been solved in a variety of ways in many many different situations,but do we as humans really know what the best way is? Though there is not and will never be a definitive answer to this question,studies have shown that positivity is one of the best ways to handle conflict. The conflict can be as big as things like making it through the holocaust or as small as what TV show to watch,but positivity will almost always improve your situation in some way or another.

Conflict need not be catastrophic or personal conflicts are simply part of being human. Deal with issues as they arise, avoiding conflict makes situations worse. Time does not resolve matters instead it decreases the chance of a positive outcome. Attempt to understand the other person's point of view because dismissing the other's views, assigning blame, and exclusive focus on your own perspective are all counterproductive. Do not judge emotions, no one's feelings are more or less “right” than the other. Emotions reflect a valid perspective of an individual even if you don't understand it; acknowledge the other person's reaction as important. Focus on the behavior, situation or problem area without attacking the person involved. Do not assume your values or beliefs are “right”, they reflect a view of the world from your unique perspective. Respecting another's viewpoint as equally valuable opens an opportunity for learning and growth (Lifetips moving up in life, 2000).

The conditions that the Japanese were kept in were horrible. “Beginning in 1942, most Japanese American evacuees were confined in assembly centers-hastily converted racetracks, stadiums, and fairgrounds. Guarded by military police, the centers were crowded, uncomfortable, and often unsanitary” (Wax 14). A girl who is sixteen years told some of what she experienced at the camp. She “said that one of her friends had a nervous breakdown because there were no medical facilities, ‘they tied her down to a mess hall table and I heard her screaming all through the night. . . . We were crowded together like flies. I remember thinking 'I can't stand it’” (Wax 14). However, the “most distressing to the evacuees was the

The first people we truly know are our families. At the beginning of our lives, we are completely reliant on them for the most basic needs. As one gets older, they gain independence and families provide less for physical needs; however, mental needs, such as support and encouragement, Families also have the biggest influence over their children’s political opinions and how politically involved they are. Families also determine what types of culture their children are exposed to. Looking at the books I am Malala and A Long Way Gone, we are able to see that Malala and Ishmael experience much different experiences in making social change. Malala, from I am Malala, had the support of her family and made enormous strides in fighting for education for women; whereas, Ishmael, from A Long Way Gone, did not have a family to support him, but still managed to give child soldiers a voice. With this being said, Malala and Ishmael are similar in that they were both exposed to Western culture. The extent a family supports their child and the child’s exposure to Western culture greatly affects the magnitude of social change the child could achieve. We will start by looking at Western culture and then we will further examine family encouragement.
