Misha Shamonin Misha Shamonin was the youngest person to be executed at the Butovo Firing Range, during the great purge, at only 13 years old (Haydes). He only stole two loaves of bread. The Butovo Firing Range was an old private estate by the Drozhzhino village. This was used by the Soviets’ secret police as an agricultural colony, shooting range, and as a place of execution and mass graves. The Soviets only executed people that they felt were a “danger to the people.” More than 20,000 people were shot at the Butovo Firing Range from August 1937 to October 1938. One thousand people were slaughtered by remaining beside their Orthodox faith. Misha’s death opened people’s eyes to how if a young boy could be executed for a small
Desi Arnaz was an extremely famous actor and musician who was born in Cuba, but is technically an American in terms of Nationality. Desi was born on March 2, 1917 in Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. His last stand was on December 2, 1986 when he died of cancer at the age of sixty-nine. He had been experiencing health issues and problems for years before his death as soon after he was put in the hospital for the first time during his later years in 1981. During his earlier health complications, many hoped and prayed that all would pass and he would be fortunate enough to be healthy once again, but sadly, that was not the case. When Desi was very young, his life was not as great as it was going to become even though he was born into a very wealthy family.

. According to activist Assata Shakur, “Black Americans have no genealogical blueprint from which to draw a family history or bloodline, no accurate records kept, and no way effectively to trace our roots without hitting a dead-end of red tape or a white family tree. Without these records, we have no way of knowing our true relatives in America or Africa” (Assata

When North East Ohio Medical University sponsored a student led project, BetheBeautifulU was formed. Our campaign’s goal is to expose social media’s negative effect on teenage self-esteem due to its focus on Eurocentric standards of beauty. BetheBeautifulU’s purpose was to confront Cleveland's high school issues with self-esteem hidden within high school culture. We came up with numerous topics, like body positivity, but the one that was deeply anchored in our school was colorism. Colorism in Cleveland school districts and the media perpetuates the idea that lighter skinned people are more beautiful and most accepted compared to dark skin people. During our seminar to promote BetheBeautifulU, we asked

It’s blistering hot, as the sun beats the soul out of the barren atmosphere of deserted Djibouti. The sand awakens, as barefoot boys chase a ragged ball down the terrain. Blood pouring from his shins, a boy quickly gains control of the jagged sphere and gracefully runs toward a handmade goalpost. He begins to celebrate as the majestic parabola lands perfectly in the net. Twenty-three years later, the world’s eyes would watch on as that same boy would make history running toward something far greater: the glory of not one, but two Olympic gold medals (“Mo Farah,” Gale par. 8). Mohamed Muktar Jama Farah showed the world that through hard work and diligence, dreams can be a revolutionizing reality (Gatehouse par. 2). At a age eight, he boarded
Meagan Duhamel and Eric Redford is a pair that needs to be careful while choosing characters and costumes for their programs. Especially Meagan Duhamel, she needs to be careful with proportions and decoration. Many design tricks so beloved by skaters can look ridiculous and tasteless on her. This season, she clearly wanted to re-try the lyrical image and put on a "girly" dress. And her costumiers dealt with it.
Amira Arzu, an Afghan teenager, was only 15 years old when she was forced into an arranged marriage. She was kind hearted, intelligent, elated, and humorous until one day this was all taken away. December 15th, 2016 she was on her way to school in Afghanistan not knowing that her parents were driving her to a Mosque, the Shrine of Ali, to get married to her future husband, Ahmed Akmal. A few days later she found herself on the street Taimani in Kabul, Afghanistan. Amira ran past workers ordering from street carts, women with their children, men in trucks honking at one another, and many looked at her uncertainty as she was running through the streets of Kabul. At the time, she was wearing a blue floral hijab, jeans, and a dress as in Afghanistan you cannot wear a dress without covering your legs. Many deduced that she was without her husband on the streets of Kabul, which is not normally the case, but Amira was different from the other wives and arduously wanting to figure out an escape.

I would like to take the opportunity to convey some personal thoughts and observations of my nephew, Ciaran P. Hourihan, as part of the admissions process. I have responded to many requests for recommendations and have done so in what I hope has been an unbiased way. To maintain the same level of objectivity when it comes to my nephew, is, admittedly, impossible, particularly in light of our recent visit to Alma Mater which confirmed both in his mind and in mine that Holy Cross offers a unique combination of opportunities for Ciaran in the liberal arts, and athletics not found at most other colleges.
