An individual can’t be influenced by their own selves but also the people that are surrounding him/her. It is due to the pressure that others put on the individual which impacts against him/her greatly as they are forced to accept it and go with it. Going with something that is not completely accepted by the individuals will ultimately cause them to feel rejection. A poet, Peter Skrzynecki, speaks of his personal experience which is strongly connected to belonging. An example is St Patrick’s college where he went to a school and felt like he didn’t learn anything from there even though he spent quite a long time there. Feliks Skrzynecki, another poem written by Peter, its where the persona talks about his father who is not Australian living

“When I was a little girl my family moved to Tallahassee, Florida. We were the only Jewish family in the neighborhood. So as most kids do when they move to a new neighborhood, they tend to try and make new friends. I remember going over to one of my new friend’s house and her mother felt my scalp for horns” Julianne Jacques MCC-Penn Valley Counselor. Jewish Americans learn from a young age about the importance of knowing their history. Knowing the history is for the sake of the future of their past. Jewish Americans represent a group of people rather than a race or ethnicity, with strong family values and beliefs. They are simply claiming five thousand years of their history.

What made this assignment difficult for me is that I do not know any Jewish people. I was not aware there was a Jewish synagogue found in Beaumont, Texas, twenty miles from my home. Additionally, I was not aware that Houston had a museum dedicated to the Holocaust either. Furthermore, I am ashamed to admit I was not aware that Jewish

Herschel Schmoeckel Pinchas Yerucham Krustofsky is the cynical, burnt out, addiction-riddled smoking clown host of Bart and Lisa's favorite TV show, The Krusty the Clown Show.

Margaret Newkirk, a regular contributor to the Bloomberg periodicals, discusses the tension between the acute need for labor to clean Houston after Hurricane Harvey and the debilitating stance that the immigration policy of the American government has taken. She observes that while the nation has been witnessing dire shortages of construction workers, the immigration crackdown heightened by Trump’s tough policies has worsened the situation. Newkirk’s article rails against the draconian law that threatens local officials with jail terms and sacking if they fail to enforce it. The article also takes note of the rising wage rates after the hurricane hit the region, and estimates that it they may increase faster than ever. Newkirk’s fundamental

Urszula Kozak was born in Brenna, Poland, a former communist town near the Czech border, in 1976. Surrounded by farms, animals and familial love, Kozak’s childhood was an extraordinary one.

Christopher Kleinwachter, patriot and a devoted son, was on a military operation with the National Guard in the Afghan War when he was killed on November 29, 2006. His mother, Carmen, numb with grief over the death of her close son, began a journey that she never expected to have to make in life: a road that passed through anger, sadness, terrible depression and then forgiveness and peace. Her small volume of poetry, essays and prayers tell the story of Christopher, the military family who came to support her in her time of need, her forgiveness of a person contributory to the accident which killed her son, and the patriotism and service of her son and all who fight for our liberty in the armed forces. This volume is a praise of those who serve

Also, men are rewarded for being competitive, and activities like sports are applauded. In Katz's view, "boys are rewarded for throwing hard, and activities, such reading, and befriending girls are considered to be weird." Basically, Katz is saying that activities like sports are more acceptable for guys than being a nerd who likes learning. For example, as a kid, my brother has always been good at math. However, many boys hated math at his school, and people who were good at math or enjoyed it were despised and bullied. If you wanted to be considered cool and be part of a particular group, you had hate math and be more athletic. To prove himself to his friends, my brother would fake being bad at math or purposely do badly on his tests. Furthermore, it was cooler to do sports, and my brother played soccer for years despite hating it.

Throughout Simon Sinek’s speech regarding the topic of millennials within the workplace, he makes his claim very clear that Millennials disadvantages can be directly correlated to the failed parenting strategies, the advancement of technology, and lastly the environment created by big corporations which hire millennials. Sinek states that these negative factors cannot be blamed on Millennials, but rather the older generations. I wholeheartedly agree with Simon Sinek on his position over this argument because I myself am a millennial who has observed and experienced the claims which he makes. I have felt the failure of parenting systems which gave me a sense of entitlement, I have observed the powerful impact technology has taken over my generation

The article “Andrei Chikatilo” is a biography about the notorious Ukrainian serial killer Andrei Chikatilo, known for killing and eating the body parts of fifty people between 1978 and 1990. It covered information about Chikatilo’s terrifying childhood along with his murders and cannibalistic tendencies. The article also gave strange but interesting facts about Chikatilo’s brother who had been kidnapped and eaten by neighbours. This seems to be the reason why Chikatilo ate his victims as well, as revenge to the person/people who killed and ate his brother. This source was highly informative and provided strong factual information about Andrei Chikatilo’s childhood, killings, and his prison sentence. The article also stated that he had

In Mr. Skonecki we had the option to use the computers for class and homework, or books. I don't know one person who would chose to use books instead of a computer. With a computer you have evreything in one place, and you get to type. If you use books you have to carry them home, and use a pen and paper. And with computers you do other things when your

While they are both well written, one is considered delightful and humerus, while the other is serious and heartwarming. Because it's about a soldier coming home from war.

The Brazilian artist Vik Muniz rooted in New York decides to make difference in the society and travels to Jardi Gramacho, the largest landfill of the world in the outskirt of Rio de Janeiro, with the meaning to help the pickers to improve their lives using art. The “catadores are the ultimately marginalized population they resort to picking valuable recyclable materials from the garbage. The magnitude of this people's job is breathe taking. This film is a very good example of how fame and talent can be use for a greater good and bring light to something that is incredible. Vik Muniz is a very remarkable man because how was able to involve the workers during the entire process, from the beginning and instead of making it about him, the art.

Kasumovic’s and Kunekoff’s article provided a good amount of information on why men are hostile to women and almost feel more dominant to them. They argue that sexist behavior is able to be gained throughout the evolution of their perspective, which considers the evolving differences in intra-sexual competition. They came up with a hypothesis that when females disrupt the men’s hierarchy, is when hostile behavior starts to initiate towards women due to losing status. With their hypothesis, they made up an experiment through an “online first shooter video game”. In this video game, they were able to collect data on the player’s gender, individual performance, and skill.
