Jane And Finch

I’ve lived in Chicago almost all my life. There’s a lot of neighborhoods in Chicago; Good and bad. Living on the south side of Chicago most of my life would make you think there’s nothing but violence in the city. Even though Its bad, I enjoy the neighborhood I live in now. The neighborhood I live in is Roseland, but I grew up in Englewood. Both neighborhoods are similar, but they have their differences.

We first encounter this relationship between Jane and Rochester during their first dramatic meeting. She encounters him when he falls off his horse and she is required to give him assistance. Jane’s first impression of his face is that ‘He had a dark face, with stern features and a heavy brow’. This may portray the dimness in his face awaiting to be enlightened by a woman which, in this case Jane. Further on in this chapter, unaware of who he is, on her return home, Jane is amazed to discover that the gentleman she assisted in the road was her employer, Mr. Edward Rochester. Jane’s future relationship with Rochester is most clearly set out in their first meeting. Although without any money, reserved and socially dependent, Jane is not

It is time, at last, to speak the truth about my community. As an 18 year old living in Ottawa, the Nation’s Capital, I have had many feelings regarding the homeless and the poor living within my community. The homeless and the poor require much needed assistance, as their situation is miserable. Being given the power to make changes, I think this issue would be the first priority. As a member of my community, Ottawa, I must aim for a positive change. The change could be in housing, food services, and health.

The media is biased towards public incidents, but one community is in the media’s eye. For the past decade, the media pressed Jane and Finch on numerous occasions that has left a bad image of it. Jane and Finch is "known" for its extreme violence which has led the public to believe it is a dangerous community. Furthermore, the community's view differs from the media's negative perspective. This community has drastically improved throughout the years and has turned into a better community and to this day, the media and the public contradict it. Jane and Finch is the most positive community in Toronto because support is available to youth, it has a low crime rate and the graduation rate is high.

Interviewee 3, Mrs. Homemaker, another native of Guyana, is a mother of four, and has happily relocated to South Ozone Park three years ago. Now that she’s been living there she says she doesn’t have any major complaints. She loves the neighborhood and so does her family. All of the neighbors look out for one another, and that’s one of the things she says she looks for in a neighborhood. Mrs. Homemaker tells me she sees no change in the crime in the area. The most she sees are fights and arguments among teenagers and young adults. She says this is only likely to occur when the weather’s nice, because that’s when everyone heads to the park so there’s a lot of people walking to and from passing by in front of her house. She has never seen any gangs or any type of criminal related activity in the neighborhood neither. There was another news story

For the past 17 years, Elk Mound has been my home. When most people drive through the village on highway 12, they glance ahead, not noticing the community around them. The people living, working, or attending school here are not only my friends, but in a way, my family. I have grown up with people who have more in common with my rather than just where we live. There are 66 young adults in my class today, and I have known everyone’s name since first grade. Attending a small high school has given me multiple opportunities to join a variety of clubs. If I am playing a basketball game, running in a meet, or participating at the State Academic Decathlon meet, I see familiar faces from my community. The support of a small community is personal. Since

Just as Atticus Finch and James Donovan defend a minority when no one else would, both of the lawyer’s defendants were highly discriminated at the time. “It couldn’t be worse, Jack. The only thing we’ve got is a black man’s word against the Ewells’,” Atticus admitted. Atticus already knows that he will loose the trial, but he knows that if he doesn't defend Tom Robinson, no one will. In the same manner, Atticus also wants to break the constant code of society which is discriminating African Americans. Just as Atticus defends the minority of his time, James Donovan also defends the minority of his time. “I would be serving my country and my profession… We agree; all the guilty should be tried,” acknowledged Donovan. In a way Donovan looks at

The main message Jeff Nixa is sending to the reader is that we can judge a book by its cover. People who judge other people, or in this case judging a neighborhood by its appearance and crime statistics never know the people who live there. There are good hearted people how just happen to live in a neighborhood that is considered by most people outside the neighborhood as being an undesirable place to live.

One of these factors could be lack of awareness and understanding. According to Monsebraaten, there is a thoughtful level of lack of commitment in the community (2015). Society is not looking closer to what has been happening in the community about the violence there are experiencing; this is normalized in the community. “Many residents said they were unhappy with the services that they are receiving from cops at 31 Division and would not report a crime if they witnessed one or were victims of one” (Share News, 2009). Therefore, youths refuse to seek help, and then deal with problems the way they understand since they cannot find good role models to follow they path. According to Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services says lack of understanding is affecting everybody in the neighbourhood, which increases violence from many backgrounds that includes poverty and discrimination. “Good local programming often is not available or sustainable, and role models and mentors can be hard to find” (2015). It is important to understand that the government are the people. Base on the facts, the root of Jane and Finch is not a fault of government, but the fault of the society where people of Jane and Finch cannot govern themselves. “Women work in plain sight of the residents

In this town, you know the name of every person you pass in the halls and the family you see when you are out to dinner you are either related to or you have known since you were born. Due to the involvement in the arts and the family-like quality of Elizabeth City, I try and stay as involved as possible. From being an exceedingly dedicated performer and leader at the local, award-winning, children's theatre company, The Center Players, working my summer away at the beloved, quaint, soft-serve ice-cream shop, staying involved in my school's clubs, to volunteering at almost every event my town has to offer, I consider myself to be very involved in my community. Living here is an adventure that everyone around you is on with you- what a bittersweet reality- and while the adventure has been one I will cherish forever and that I believe has truly shaped who I am as a person, I believe it is time to flip the page and start

My life in Maycomb, is anything but ordinary, I’ve had to endure so many hardships with family and fellow town members. I’ve been described by Jem Finch as a six-and-a-half foot tall man, with a long jagged scar on my face, my teeth are yellow and rotten, with popped out eyes and I drool most of the time. Sadly, this is what the whole town believes, as well as the stories that they heard from my childhood. When I was 33, I was sitting in the living room cutting up newspapers, when my father walked by and I decided to stab him in the leg with a pair of scissors. Many don’t know my side of this story because I’m protective and shy, I don’t leave the house, mostly because I’m not allowed to.

In the beginning of the novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” written by Harper Lee, the most interesting character as of thus far is Jem Finch. Jem is the elder brother of the narrator of the story, Scout Finch. The brother and sister duo spend most of their time outside of school together. Although they are roughly four years apart, they enjoy spending a lot of time together and they are almost always together during the first part of the novel. Throughout the book, Jem exhibits bravery, curiosity, and brotherly actions, all of which provide a very entertaining character for this novel.

Older brothers are typically the ones who annoy and bully the younger siblings with love. They are the ones who the parents rely on to help around the house. Jem Finch is a little bit different than the typical older brother to a little girl, but then again his little sister isn’t that ordinary either. Jem Finch displays many character traits. In the first few chapters he displays a little kid who gets in trouble along side of his friends and younger sister, but further into the novel Jem demonstrates more responsible behaviors by accepting his wrongs and the consequences. He also shows how he will stand up for Scout and take care of her, even though he doesn’t like to be seen with her while they are at school, and he is hard on her when

The meaning behind the title is emphasized in various fashions throughout the novel. Violet and Finch are paired together for a geography project the same day that they met, and nearly died.

Finch feels a sense of responsibility towards Violet and her suicidal tendencies; however, Violet Markey is popular and insists that she was saving Finch and not the other way around.The project consists of exploring Indiana, and embracing the unique aspects that are hidden within the state.
