Absolution is a 61.5 inch by 85.5 inch acrylic painting by Maud Gatewood. The American painter attended the University of North Carolina Greensboro to study painting in the 1950s. The absolution painting dates back from 1989 when Gatewood had returned to the US from Austria. The painting is done on a canvas using acrylic paint. Unlike most painters who depend on engraving, lithography and other painting techniques, she would create unusual but rigid pictures which most people claimed were not paintings. Absolution is made by painting a surface that would later be overlaid on a canvas to display the painting. The museum visit was accomplished the eighteenth day of February 2017. Maud Gatewood was determined

In her article “Gendered Racial Violence and Spatialized Justice,” Sherene H. Razack explores the murder of Pamela George; the way that her murderers’ sentences were lessened because of a variety of factors pertaining to Ms. George’s life; and the fact that the murderers were young, white, and middle-class men.

Veterans from the war even made groups that opposed the war. These soldiers formed an organization called Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW). This organization held a purpose, this was to form a voice for the opposition to bring home our military men and woman in the ongoing war in Vietnam, this organization had over 28,000 members across the United States as well as active military personnel in Vietnam. Through the actions of the organization, they exposed the real truth about the United States involvement in Vietnam and veterans real life experiences, which made America realize how unjust this war was. VVAW was created in retrospect to the vast majority of veterans with PTSD because of Vietnam. Agent Orange, a chemical that U.S. used during the war had effects on our veterans. The U.S. government used over 15 million gallons of herbicides during the war to destroy plants and trees, not understanding that soldiers used

Leanne Sarah Holland born 1st October 1978 was a 12-year-old girl from Goodna, Queensland, found murdered. Her body was discovered on Thursday, 26th September 1991 at 1.42 pm down a dirt track. The track was 8.9 kilometres from her Goodna home in nearby Redbank Plains.

We must do everything in our power to make the world recognize that our veterans are still paying a high price for fighting the war in Vietnam. Agent Orange is slowly taking the lives of these brave veterans. The government has recognized some diseases but the rules to compensation can be complex. It was in the 1960's that we were in the process of trying to destroy vegetation and brush in Vietnam, in doing so we proceeded to contaminate one of the largest parts of the environment, Humankind. War Veterans were exposed to Agent Orange and now live their lives with a disease not necessarily curable. The question remains did these Veterans know about the hazardous effects, and how are they being compensated now? Agent Orange was the code

During the peak of U.S involvement in the Vietnam War, between 1967 and 1969 the U.S employed a strategy that proved to be a disaster on many different levels. With over 500,000 of their troops serving in Vietnam at the time, the widespread use of herbicides, particularly Agent Orange began being sprayed over the Vietnamese jungle by planes. The aim of this was to eliminate the ‘invisibility' of the Viet Cong and offer a safe path for the American troops to follow. This was a good idea in theory, but what the American strategists didn't think of was the toxicity of the herbicides, and the fact that not only would the Viet Cong be exposed to it, but their troops and innocent South Vietnamese would be also. A widely speculated and argued repercussion of this is that many Vietnam veterans, and Vietnamese villagers began to give birth to babies with birth defects. However, a confirmed result

Many veterans suffered after the Vietnam War. Even though so many soldiers had suffered for over a century, the medical community still had not recognized their symptoms as a defined and treatable disease. There was no medical name for the set of symptoms that plagued so many veterans, and no organization to help them.

Near the end of 1964 the involvement of the American troops in the war was rising. During the 1970’s it became evident that there were serious long lasting effects because of the chemicals. Not only soldiers but children also experienced physical ailments. Veterans of war were experiencing abnormalities after conceiving children. Several veterans had come forward stating that it was Agent Orange that had affected their health or birth defects of their children. There were a lot of soldiers unable to come back home and live normally after some of the harrowing things they had experiences and their own countrymen were criticising their involvement, when a lot of them had been conscripted and had no choice in whether they joined the army or

United States involvement in Vietnam has been surrounded by controversy since the 1960s. Many felt that controversy would end with the withdrawal of US troops in the 1970s. The troops came home and were not welcomed with the fanfare that surrounded veterans of previous wars. Was the controversy surrounding Vietnam a “dead” issue now that the troops were home? The answer is no. The controversy continues to this very day. The issue of whether or not the US should have gotten involved with Vietnam is still undecided. The even larger issue, on the other hand, is that of exposure to Agent Orange.

The Agent Orange Act of 1991 is the only legislative pathway to add ailments to the presumptive list of service connected illnesses for Vietnam Veterans. It is set to expire on September 30th, 2015. If the Act is allowed to expire comprehensive research reviews will end. Without continued research reviews, some Vietnam Veterans will never be covered for the ailments caused by their exposure. If this legislation is not extended there will be no new ailments added to the service connected presumptive list for Vietnam Veterans (after the 2014 report is released this December).

Almost thirty years after the last troops were pulled out of what was then South Vietnam, its effects are still felt in today’s society. It is hard not to find someone who’s life has not been affected because of this war. One of the most controversial decisions made in the war was to use chemicals to fight the enemy. The most boradly used chemiucal was called Agent Orange. Some people agreed with the use of Agent Orange. They saw it as a very viable weapon that needed to be used in order to keep the Communist from taking control of South Vietnam and subverting their democratic government. Many others disapproved of its use. They knew, correctly, that it would severely devastate the landscape of Vietnam and would forever ruin the

The chemical weaponry that were used on the Vietnam vegetation had an adverse effect on the people in a way that even after three generations, the effects are still evident on the children. Many of them are born with malformations and severe defects in the nervous structure and immune system. The chemical also affected the American soldiers and veterans as many of them have health issues related to these weapons. Although the American government thought that they were only punishing the North Vietnamese, American veterans ended up victims of chronic and unhealthy conditions.
