If Sociology is the systematic study of human society, then sociological imagination is what we perceive or think about how people work and or think in a more personal and bias matter. C.W. Mills believes that merging two different theories of social reality of the “individual” and “society”. Mills challenges readers and learners by arguing many basic terms and definitions from what “we” believe are right. Chapters one and two talks about how society portrays what we know rather then the facts. Our bias opinions and beliefs often go against what science has proven.

Which of the following groups have the highest incidence of use and abuse of alcohol?

Imagine a crowd of people with on the edge of your seat, nail-biting excitement. People were bubbling with energy and some alcohol to loosen everyone up. The lights are dim and the show is about to start. The slow melodic notes of the piano echo through the theater and out walks the singer dressed in an all lace number and a shawl showing more skin than covering. It is evident that this event is definitely for the “grown and sexy”. On Sunday March 8, 2014, I attended a Masha Ambrosius concert in which she was promoting her album friends and lovers. During the course of the show there were 4 different performances all of which had different effects on the

Ainsley Soli is a good person who does not belong here. At least, that is what she has been telling herself the last two years as she sits alone in solitary confinement in San Quentin State Prison. The only human contact she has had in the last 742 days is with the feral, monstrous guards that pay her a visit with a tray full of slop called prison food every day. She has not spoken one word since May 24, 2014. Sometimes she wishes she could speak, but there is no use talking when no one listens to what you have to say.

Upon reading the first page, I knew this would be an enjoyable read. Not only is Nomi’s family entertaining because of their quirky ways but Miriam Toews sarcastic sense of humor thrown into Nomi’s everyday activities keeps the tone of the book light even when Nomi goes through trialing times. The book is written in the first-person narrative, told from the perspective of Nomi Nickel and read similar to a memoir. The story starts off smack-dab in the middle of Nomi’s present-day teenage life and quickly moves into her childhood which is done to show why she is the way she is. Ultimately, this is effective because it helps me to step inside the main characters head to view her thoughts and helps me to understand the reason behind her

Overall, the film presented its short story exceptionally well. Throughout the movie, a thrilling mood was established, just like the text version. Although, the feeling of solitude was not presented effectively.

Everything LeAlan had a personal ability to change, he made better for himself. He took school seriously and began his career, but the one thing he couldn’t change was his environment. He did grow up in the ghetto. He knows as well as any scholar that it is an awful neighborhood to grow up in, “growing up in a poorer neighborhood has devastating effects on adolescent behavior, achievement, and mental health” (Steinberg, 2016, p. 91). LeAlan sees how the environment affects him and the people around him. Even in the eighth grade, when discussing what would happen if a ghetto kid and a suburban kid switched places, LeAlan said “the ghetto kid’s going to be hostile and gangster-like. He’ll be more angry. He’ll get more frustrated” (Jones, et al., 1997, p. 43). This shows that LeAlan understands that due to his neighborhood, the kids there have to be tougher. His knowledge of this is furthered through his interview questions, he frequently asks people if they agree this community forces people to act in a way they wouldn’t in other circumstances.

Understanding the culturally specific aspects of hikikomori, relevant in Japanese culture, begins with the gender disparities present amongst persons who have hikikomori. Several authors make the statement that the majority of persons with hikikomori are men, with cases of women with hikikomori representing a small portion of the hikikomori population (Furlong, 2008; Tamaki, 1998). To support the premise that men compose the vast majority of hikikomori cases, Koyama (2010) found that while 1.8% of male participants versus 0.4% of female participants identified as having hikikomori at some point in their lifetime. Teo (2010) estimates that for every four men who have hikikomori, there is one female, which is in line with Koyama’s data. Gender clearly plays a role in the development and etiology of hikikomori which can be examined from multiple perspectives.
