Hatred seemingly defined in many ways; some use the word hate to explain their distaste for food or something happening in the world while others, merely unable to control their inner emotions act out in heinous fashion. Ultimately arising from fear or misunderstanding hatred left unchecked, unfortunately, becomes a crippling emotion. Often paralyzed by their fear, people find it necessary to rally others to take up their cause of hate. Consequently, our world is laden with discrimination, like a cancer spreading working to consume every inch of our being, each day hatred, works towards destroying our souls. On Saturday, August 12th, 2017, we as Americans were witness to undeniable “Domestic Terrorism” in the town of Charlottesville, Virginia.
In the face of injustice, humanity often finds itself sitting idle in fear as the injustice unfolds. It is in moving from this circumstance to one of bravery and confidence that a person may realize their full potential and make a difference in this world. In the outstanding novel, The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, Starr, a young, black athlete, struggles to speak up about the injustice of experiencing the shooting of her innocent best friend, Khalil. Starr’s worry about the consequences holds her back from being able to be open about this painful experience. Starr’s coming-of-age moment is when she acknowledges how she needed to speak out about the injustice she witnessed, which reveals how maturing means striving for the truth to pursue justice
In The Hate U Give, Angie Thomas creates a compelling story that explores the complex issues of racism, identity, and social injustice. The tale, which is both touching and relevant, centers on Starr Carter, who is dealing with the fallout from seeing her friend killed wrongfully by the police. This made a massive impact, not just on Starr, but the black community as a whole. It impacts them because there is a lot of attention on them during this time period, especially with all the protests and violence that is going on. Within the narrative of The Hate U Give, Angie Thomas portrays a spectrum of emotions through the topic of how a young, regular girl, who was just an ordinary high school student’s life can get turned upside down due to racism.
Hatred is an efficacious word that is often shown through violence. When people do not know how to express their thought, they use their body language to show their loathsome feelings.
If one hates someone or something that means they have an intense dislike towards them. Sometimes this hate can be so large it can be an influence for mass destruction. We have learned, or even have seen examples of hate turning into something bigger throughout our history. These examples include the multiple wars, terrorist’s attacks, and genocides. Many of these incidents were drove by hate, and did not end well. What drives this hate? How can people turn on one another with just feeling hate towards them? The Holocaust being one of the many genocides in our history was indeed influenced by an intense dislike. That intense dislike was towards certain types of people it ended up taking multiple lives.
I fucking hate humans. I'm so tired of people and school. I hate teachers and students. If you could kill people and not go to prison i swear to god on my momma i would kill a lot of people. But you can't so i gotta deal with people.
Hate and prejudice among people has been there all along human history. In the United States, it continued with those who hold the majority of resources and power and control the social institutions, government, education and business. But we can say that the United States has taken a leap toward changes that can be view as optimistic of acceptance of everybody despite everyone’s differences. The vast majority of citizens have a progressive positive interaction with people of different cultures and ethnicities. But there are small extremist groups that have the means and know how to manipulate information to induce fear in people’s minds about someone who is different. The people in power in the nation who fear of losing that power create
Hate plays a role in the life of many people today leading the argument whether hate is acceptable in everyday life. Hate allows nothing but pain and suffering to continue on and feuds to continue through time. Hate is a lifestyle, lived by the people of today's society that don't have the courage to stand up for what is right. Hate allows for people to persecute and discriminate without much reason or cause allowing for these people to not change their ideas and adapt to the world ahead. Hate is not acceptable and should not be tolerated, but in today's world this is a diminishing view as ideas of segregation of people by religion, race, ethnicity, culture and many other factors is very common. The argument should
Hate is commonly known as a strong word. For someone to use it to describe his or her feelings toward another is dire. When I think of the word, I imagine how much destruction it has brought upon people, relationships, and even the world. I see it as an awful thing; if it did not exist, so much better could come from our lives. To me, hate is not warm, kind, or tender; hate is, albeit a simple word, an ugly emotion that can turn something very beautiful into something very repellent.
In the society today, there is an increase in the number of violence cases, especially among the minority group. Many people including some government agencies consider them irrelevant. The law protects all the people, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. The Bill of Rights explains that people have the freedom of relating with whoever the individual wants, freedom to reside in any place one feel like, freedom of worship and other types of freedoms. However, people limit the freedom of these group members, as they do not consider them equal to them. The issue of violence against the minority group has caught the attention of
There is so much hate in this world. To add onto that hate, there are many hate groups. The hate group that I am writing about is the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Another name for this group is Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (ISIL). ISIS and ISIL are the same group. This group is made up of Islamic extremists who believe the world should be under Sharia Law. Sharia Law means, “One political and religious leader over all.” ISIS has many other beliefs, the qualifications to belong to this group can be brutal, and the present day hate is awful.
Domestic terrorism is an extraordinarily real and frightening thing Americans today have to manage. While many protest at the idea of allowing refugees from the Middle East into the country, others realize that domestic terrorism may be the real problem we should be focusing on. Domestic terrorism, is terrorist activity against one's own country to initiate fear and push an ideology about a particular religion or group. In the US since Sept. 11, 2001, "nearly twice as many people have been killed by white supremacists, anti government fanatics and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims" (Scott). The statistic is certainly alarming because the media and today's society views the typical terrorist as an Allah praising, bearded, suicide bomber when in fact, in over half the cases it was an American citizen causing the terror.
The fact of the matter is that people have become a lot better over time, and more accepting. I feel that in due time the hatred will kill itself out because let’s be honest being hateful for even just an hour feels terrible imagine what people who are always filled with hatred feel like, probably down right awful. You feel even worst when you are around a person who wants to hate rather than relate. When a person devotes their time to hating someone because of their beliefs or skin color they must really have absolutely nothing else to
“No one is born No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” Nelson Mandela- 1994. Children are taught to hate someone that are different. The differences can include the race of another, religion, financial background, or one’s beliefs. An adult or teen can be taught to hate as well. They can learn by the company they keep. The definition of a hate crime is, “a crime motivated by racial, sexual, or other prejudice, typically one involving violence.” Some factors that can lead to a hate crime are people you live around, a clashing
On September 11, 2011, the United States was rocked with a terrorist attack unlike any other to its date or since. As a nation we grieved and mourned the loss of those that died that day and in the following days from the event. While terrorism was nothing new on this date, terrorism has been around in some form or another since the time man began inhabiting the earth. Terrorism has never been something that the US has been free from, but it is something that the US viewed very differently from that date on.
Why so much hate in the world? Why can’t people just understand that the world is not just a bad place? Why are video games such an addiction? Well, maybe I can just simply tell you the answers. Hate is in the world because of violent video games. They tend to pay attention on the screen and the screen only and apparently, they tend to not blink. Well, in order to not get their eyes messed up, they mentally have to remind themselves to blink every twenty minutes. However, when they blink, they have to blink for exactly twenty seconds while not having their eyes on the screen. Did you know that when gamers are playing, that their blink rate is fifty percent when they are concentrating on their games. But the question is why are the gamers addicted to the video games? The answer is
