“All we do is travel to new places, and to places we’ve already been.” said the girl

Throughout the novel, Janie had multiple relationships that teach her very valuable lessons about marriage. Out of all of the three men that Janie had marriages with, each was very different, and Janie had very different types of relationships with them.

Although she hails from a seemingly completely disconnected culture, Janie experiences in her Southern life stifling, patriarchal pressures similar to those which Edna felt some thirty years earlier in Victorian-era New Orleans. While still in her teenage years, Janie is forced into a loveless marriage in the name of protecting her in ways she would not be able to independently. Like Edna who stays with Mr. Pontellier despite her hesitations about their relationship and her insincere reasons for marrying him, Janie lingers with her husband Logan for over a year trying to find the love she senses is missing. " 'You told me Ah mus gointer love him,'" Janie laments to her grandmother, "'and Ah don't'" (Hurston 23).

Saul from “Timebound” with his murdering, changing timelines, and evil plotting, he really fits the description for “monster.” I would say that Saul is considered a monster not because of appearance, but because of his actions in demeritorious ways. It states on page 130 that, “When I told him that we needed to just go to Angelo and tell him before someone else discovered the same violations that I had….And all the while, he kept hitting me. Saul never hit me before. Even when he was really angry, he would hit the wall or break something, but never” (Walker). Based on the quote, Saul is a monster because he had no control over his rage that he repeatedly hit Katherine which he had never done before hence the quote, “Saul never hit me before.”

Janie, the protagonist of Their Eyes Were Watching God, is often identified as a feminist character. While she is certainly an independent woman who believes in the equality of the sexes, Janie does not lead a typically feminist existence through the novel. Largely because of her relationships with the three key men in her life, Janie is often beaten down, ignored, silenced, and even physically abused. These episodes of disempowerment are what strengthen Janie’s feminist identity. Paradoxically, the times in her life during which she cannot be a feminist are what ultimately make Janie an exemplar of feminist strength.

This quote shows how Abigail reveals the understatement of tensions between the community.

If any American today were to be asked to describe the word “slavery”, they would probably describe to you the a time were African America people were enslaved in the south do engage in free labor and harsh conditions.

Nations like the United States have used slavery to their advantage not understanding the true immoral reality of their actions. More specifically in the Old South, black antebellum southerners were oppressed physically and emotionally every day that they were under this system.

At the end, the poor miller becomes wealthy because of the diamond inside the fish. This type of literary device is irony, or situational irony in this case, as throughout the story he ends in poverty every time he acquires money. This is the only time the author shows the good side of money, as it brings the poor miller a new lifestyle for himself and his family. The poor miller now lives happily without having to worry about any economic problem, as he now has his own business. He was able to afford a new home and a holiday home, where he encountered the two wealthy men, showed them what he has gained, and showed them that he was truly an honest men. (Anaya 30-31) At the end of the story the poor miller became wealthy and never let money

DACA (sometimes called the Dreamers law) allowed people that came to the U.S. illegally as children to stay. Some people say those immigrants should be allowed to stay because they didn’t choose to come to America illegally and have only known America as their homeland. Others say their plight is sad, but the law is the law. Although the DACA program helps a few, this program should be dramatically changed because illegal immigrants can come here and not pay taxes while they get free healthcare and financial aid.

Domestic Violence is a critical issue negatively impacting women in the world today. There has to be something done to prevent this type of abuse from happening. The results of my research revealed that there are many victims that do not know the type of help that is available and there needs to be major improvement in the way domestic violence cases are handled. Based on my findings, awareness and prevention programs should be implemented in every state in order prevent this type of abuse from happening over and over. Also, each program must be monitored to ensure they are following the proper guidelines in order to better serve the victims and their families.
