Indian tanks roll into my capital and begin massacring my militia. As I struggle to force him out of my capital, a nuclear warhead decimates not only my city, but also the last remnants my army. I slam my keyboard and sigh in frustration as I watch him salting the earth of my empire. After a bloody eight hours of dealing with land hungry warmongers and barbarian invasions, my honor has been stripped; my morale has evaporated; my empire has finally fallen… The sun has set, but my empire will rise again
lost? When will my sorrow reach its end and the dawn of my happiness show itself? These are the questions constantly cycling in the psyche of most insecure, shameful, and broken people; even more so for a black man in the South with slaves for grandparents and a wife on her deathbed. “He”, from Henry David Thoreau’s King of the Bingo Game, represents the typical human determined to navigate the murky waters of life, and admittedly, failing in the attempt. The purpose of this analysis is to expose the
In Katherine Newman’s No Shame in My Game, she examines and analyzes the working poor in the inner city. She does so in order to draw conclusions about how to help and dispute common stereotypes. A research study may be able to have more than one resolution, in this case Newman’s research design has more than one purpose.

Critical Book Review of No Shame in My Game by Katherine Newman When someone thinks of the poor they instantly imagine a homeless man sleeping in a cardboard box or the nearest garbage can, but the working poor especially in the inner-city is commonly overlooked by society.

Article five of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights established in 1948 states, “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.” During the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, the Tutsis
studying Morten Tyldum's loosely based biopic of Alan Turing in "The Imitation Game", I have concluded that patriarchy was abundant during World War Two and it was most obvious throughout Joan Clarke's life. While analysing different critics opinions and views on Joan Clarke's role in the film, I found many supporting ideas and discovered that there was a lot of sexism during the time of the Enigma code.
