In the book "The Other Wes Moore", there are two Wes Moores that are discussed, along with their families. These two Wes' are alike in they share the name Wes Moore, but their lives are very different in many ways. Although similar in some characteristics, the two were raised different, with different circumstances. Both of the Wes Moore's are born and raised in the same neighborhood in Baltimore, Maryland.

July 4th, 1776, the United States is born. After many years of hardship, the United States is now one of the most advanced countries in the world. It took many years for them to build the world power that the country is today. Following an expedition by Lewis and Clark, numerous compromises, slavery, many wars, including a civil war and two world wars, the stock market crashing, and much more, the United States is now a highly successful country. Like gravity though, everything that goes up must come down. Many other old-world powers such as Rome, the Chinese Dynasties, and the Abbasid Dynasty have fallen as well. Empires have fallen for a number of reasons such as disease, destroying the environment, a decline in morals and values, lack of

Wes’s mother sent him off to military school at a very young age, after repeatedly failing in the regular school systems. Military school formed Wes into a citizen leader, made him more self-sufficient, and his personal responsibility intensified. Wes grew more self-sufficient as the years passed and was soon responsible for numerous younger cadets. His citizen leadership expanded and he became the highest-ranking cadet on campus, with over eight hundred cadets under his command. Military school shaped Wes as a man, and prepared him for the hardship of college

For staging hunger strikes, Paul and several other suffragists were forcibly fed in a tortuous manner. Prison officials relocated Paul to a sanitarium in hopes of getting her declared insane; during this time, while Paul was separated from the others, they had her evaluated to see if she was mentally ill. One of the psychologist, so eloquently, suggested that “insanity can be mistaken for courage.” Most of the doctors did not believe Paul to be insane, only depressed and hungry. When news of the prison conditions and hunger strikes became publicized, Americans began demanding the release of these women. This sympathy for the imprisoned women brought an enormous amount of support to the cause of women’s suffrage.

An ascribed status is the social status that a person is assigned at birth. Thus, the position is neither earned nor chosen. Rodriguez and Guzman argue that race in the U.S. is understood as an ascribed status because a person is assigned a race at birth -- you cannot choose or earn your race. Additionally, race in the United States is unchangeable. This is even true for when a person goes to different countries. For example, even though a person might be considered white in one country, if he or she is considered black in America, to America, they will always be black. Furthermore, Rodriguez and Guzman wrote that the way race is understood in America "disallows or ignores more contextual definitions" of race. The ascribed status race has in America means that what is believed to be in your blood when you are born is what you will be for the rest of your life.

The switch from a small place such as Odair County to Baltimore in such a fast pace leaves much room for trouble. The eagerness for Lynnea to: “disappear” (OLP) single outs her loneliness and her maturity levels as she just wants to get out of the slow, pedestrian, Kentucky. Her positioning from the move has her off put as she struggles to rise up to fame amongst the school. Her: “crabwise “, (OLP) walk ambles her secretive and wary motions as the city Baltimore is something much more bigly to her. Unlike the small comfortable Kentucky, it: “stretched black and row-house brown”, (OLP) creating this empowerment over her which soon causes destruction for Lynnea while trying to adjust. She was often scrutinized as: “an ant, foolish enough to believe that if she kept ambling along, the giant foot above wouldn't come smashing down.” (OLP). This pit her at a vulnerable state for the darkness of Baltimore to really succumb her, losing herself until she just gave in and: “Her foot slammed the accelerator [……] wailing somewhere near the front of the car’s grille.”(OLP) Baltimore changed her and made her into a different person, destroying her identity as she creates

Poliomyelitis (polio) is an infectious disease caused by the polio virus and is spread from person to person through faecal-oral transmission which means; stool entering the mouth or consumption of food containing stool from an infection person. The poliovirus resides in the intestinal tract and mucus in the nose and throat. Contact with infected respiratory secretions or even saliva can cause poliovirus transmission. This mode of transmission is known as oral-oral transmission. Polio became prevalent in the United States of America (U.S) in the 1940s and 1950s.this was followed by outbreaks of the disease that crippled tens of thousands in North America. Polio eradication is aimed at reducing the global incidence of polio to zero through deliberate efforts to a point that it requires no further control. Polio eradication is to be achieved through interruption of endemic transmission of poliovirus through vaccination. This saw the wide use of the inactivated polio virus (IPV) that was administered orally (OPV); oral polio vaccine.

It’s exactly eight o’clock when I hear the door open like it does every single day of my dreadful life it seems. I also hear a quiet voice counting along with their steps, and this has become so routine for me I even count along in my head, dreading every single step. Maybe today he’ll turn around and leave, maybe today of all days. This is what I think to myself as I lean over the spotless espresso machine pretending to see a smudge I scrub vigorously trying to shake the sensation of him behind me. I can do this, I only have to deal with this until the end of the week and then I’ll be able to move a few towns over and forget all about this nightmare. When I hear the bell ring to that annoying tune I don’t have to resist the urge to

And with an uncertain voice he told me to follow him into the work area. I frowned when I saw how crowded and dark the area was. There were only about 30 people there and it still looked cramped. There were only 4 windows around that didn’t bring in much light. I had never realized the poor conditions my husband had to work with, and it made me appreciate him more. I learned how to operate the machines which made guns and ammunition and other things of that sort. The day seemed to go by slower than usual because I was working from 7 in the morning until 7 in the evening. I walked home with my exhausted legs from standing all day, and when I arrived home immediately slumped down on our worn out brown couch. I dreaded even thinking about cooking, but I knew I had to get started now if I wanted it to be ready by 8.
