This tension between Christians and Jews lead to increasing hatred for one another. Not too long ago, anti-Semitism was common. Anti-Semitism led to the death of an entire population during the Holocaust. Luckily, the church has taken measures to rectify this anti-semitism with the publication of Nostra Aetate. In 1965, the Vatican II Council completely transformed the church’s policies and theology with this document. Nostra Aetate signifies “In Our Time.” Indeed, in our time, the ill sentiments towards Jews have changed tremendously. Nostra

It all began in and around the year 1919. Sula Peace, the daughter of Rekus who died when she was 3years old and Hannah, was a young and lonely girl of wild dreams. Sula was born in the same year as Nel, 1910. Sula was a heavy brown color and had large eyes with a birthmark that resembled a stemmed rose to some and many varied things to others.

There is not a great deal of context that is crucial to understanding the essential themes of the Meno, largely because the dialogue sits nearly at the beginning of western philosophy. Socrates and Plato are working not so much in the context of previous philosophies as in the context of the lack of them. Further, this is very probably one of Plato's earliest surviving dialogues, set in about 402 BCE (by extension, we might presume that it represents Socrates at a relatively early stage in his own thought). Nonetheless, in order to understand the aims and achievements of the dialogue, it helps to keep in mind some details about this lack of previous philosophies.

Rivera remained a dominant force in the development of a National Art in Mexico throughout his life and left an impact on America’s concept of public art. He painted spectacular murals of Mexican history throughout the cities, towns, and villages (Fuentes, 1995). Rivera is also well known to the public for his stormy and turbulent romance with his wife Frieda Kahlo, who was also in the eyes of the public for her paintings and a sad and tragic life story. Rivera was twenty years older than Kahlo. They married when Kahlo was 22 and Rivera was 42. They met 1928 at the Office of the Secretariat of Public Education where Rivera was painting a mural and Frida Kahlo attended school. This is where Frida made him climb down his scaffold to give her his opinion and advice on one of her paintings. She told him she needed to be sure her work would be marketable because that was the only way she could support herself (Tibol, 1983, p. 3). Rivera never placed Frida among the surrealists (Tibol, 1983, p. 7). The Encarta Dictionary defines this as an artist that tries to represent the subconscious mind by creating imagery and ideas that seem to contradict each other. However some critics believe she definitely fell in this category.
