It is evident that there are still a number of falsehoods that contribute to the adversity many people of color have to overcome in this country. Yale Law School professor, Harlon L. Dalton and Sociologists Naomi Gerstal and Natalia Sarkisian dissect two such falsehoods in their respective essays. In his essay, “Horatio Alger” Dalton takes on the rags-to-riches myth commonly portrayed in Horatio Alger’s works of fiction. Likewise, Gerstal and Sarkisian’s study on Black, White, and Latino families reveals data that debunks the widely held belief that families of color are weaker and more disorganized than their white counterparts.

Presumably a member of the French nobility, Madame de Sevigne, in her untitled letter, relates the story of an event she calls the “Brinvilliers affair.” De Sevigne’s purpose is to persuade the audience to adopt conflicting emotions about the afffair. To accomplish this, she varies her tone throughout the essay, alternatively adopting detailed, objective tone and diction intended to arouse shock and disgust in her audience, and sympathetic tone to inspire empathy and sorrow in her aristocratic audience.

The only thing that I can guess is that Burmaster, in his mind, connected the two together and said, oh that must be the reason why they sent you out here, because I know originally you were going to be assigned to the talk. In fact, Burmaster was in the room with me and Helm when I told Warrant Officer Helm, because Warrant Office Helm in fact, said that to me.

In the context of the many worries that Black American mothers must relentlessly carry for their daughters’ safety, you [Emily Bernard] claim that “hope” is what drives you to release your daughters into the world and cease the rage you experience each time you hear about a young African-American being murdered. However, in response to your article “Between the World and Me: Black American Motherhood”, I would say that not only should you continue to carry “hope”, but it is also crucial that you have a desire to incite change. Given that you are a professor of Critical Race and Ethnic Studies at the University of Vermont, you could also initiate serious discussion about race among your students that could then hopefully carry over to the rest

As I listened to her talk about companies that she believes exemplify this attitude, I wondered about the role writers should take when it comes to encouraging business owners to embrace this trifecta.

Discrimination in this nation has tainted the morals of our advanced society. Referred to as an “anchor child” for my parents, I have not escaped the wrath of hate towards my people. From self-hate in our own community to political figures such as Donald Trump, we have experienced many events which make us question our blood in our veins and the color on our face. Shaping my life, the issues that have affected me throughout the years turned this little innocent girl into an aware young woman who wants to create impact in her own family by breaking the stigma.
