The Kingsmen Society: The All For Free Society

The sloth of governments abroad have led Utopians to pursue lives of group work rather than personal property. In Book I, Hythloday confronts the wealthy as "rapacious, wicked, and useless, while the poor are unassuming, modest

Also known as Pontiac’s Uprising, this describes the event in 1763 in which Pontiac, the Ottawa Chief, led a

“Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed”, writes King. This takes us back to the opening quote, that without insubordinate behavior one cannot expect change. In this quote, King explains to the clergymen that he understands that freedom is not just given but fought for. In life obeying the law is much easier than disobeying. King believed in nonviolence. He believed the just law is the law that has to be followed. A law that uplifts human personality is a just law. In Fromm’s essay, he argues the two types of consciences. The “authoritarian conscience is the internal voice of an authority whom we please. Humanistic conscience is based on intuitive knowledge of what is human/inhuman and what is conducive/destructive of life. It's the voice that calls us back to humanity.

Imagine, being given all the elements to success in your community and not having to compete with other citizens. Most would think this sounds ideal, although if you explore this idea deeper, you would find a community cannot thrive. An illustration of this thought is the community of The Giver. When all are given a job, it is not as efficient without citizens’ effort to earn it. In The Giver, the society is not as successful as it potentially could be, since it does not use competition or human drive in its citizens.

In a country known as Annelida, there were twelve kingdoms with magical rulers. During the night of the blue moon, a Royal Seeker Ozocerite foresaw a profound prophecy, foretelling the birth of a new nation united under one. Shortly after his vision, a young and impatient King Harriman was the first to campaign against the eleven kingdoms in an epic battle known as “The Battle of the Lands.” The war proceeded for over two hundred years, leaving only two royal households-King David Callaghan and King Phillip Wylie, remaining.

In the modern day society they are run very unorganized, have some leaders, and a good president. If we lead a community then we can leave it improved. What many people in the modern day society don’t understand is that in order to be a leader you have to be supportive, responsible, and you have to make an influence. In their government they have some leaders and the don’t take enough control of their society. In the society of The Giver they don’t have a government, but they do have a solid Chief Elder. In The Giver it states “ The initial speech at the Ceremony of Twelve was made by the Chief Elder, the leader of the community who was elected every ten years” (lowry 51). The Chief Elder was the one to make all of the decisions, to help the society enhance in their laws, rules, and jobs. The two societies are very divergent in many different

A few hundred years ago, monarchies were the most traditional way to run a government. Throughout Europe, rulers rose to their power with nothing but their “divine” birthright. European men and women were subjected to the whims of kings and queens and forced to obey their policies by primarily using fear tactics. Frequently, the decisions made by rulers were detrimental to the people and did not promote their freedoms or rights, and the system of government in place did not allow for political discussion and dissent. For this reason, many philosophers of the time began to explore the true role of government and what the best form of government would be if it is to protect basic human rights. This time period is defined as the

Martin Luther King said in his famous “I Have a Dream” speech that he wished “One day, sons of former slaves and sons of former slave owners [would] be able to sit down together at a table”. In this set of documents – which includes a photograph of Black Lives Matter Protestors, an excerpt from “Citizen: An American Lyric”, by poet Claudia Rankine, as well as articles from the Time and the Guardian –varying voices expose evidence on the fact that today, King’s dream has not come true. They present measures taken to resolve this issue, and shed light of the fact that even so, some persist in denying discrimination.

My name is Frank Balonis but people call me Patrick because that is my middle name. I am not a big writer or reader but your book was a good read for me and I enjoyed it. I am a sophomore at York High school. I read your book On Writing in my English class to enhance our writing skills.

The Feudal system was functioned over 800 years. The Feudal system would take over people's minds.They also would control the people's body's. They took over people and tortured others if they didn’t obeyed. Royalty has the right to give peasant's choices and take charge if they don't listen to their lord. The system gave royalty the right to torture peasants and give peasants chances to serve for them and their kingdom.

Feudalism was based on the exchange of land for military service. It had levels of status similar to modern society. In the Middle Ages, the Feudal System was a very important system to kings in order for them to control entire countries.

Martin Luther King Jr. had a substantial impact on how the United States views civil rights. During his lifetime, Martin became highly educated and used his knowledge to help others in a positive way. King was not only an influential leader of the Civil Rights Movement, but also a catalyst and a leading figure of the 1960's. His leadership and practices still live on today, and the Civil Rights Movement wouldn't have been nearly as successful without his leadership and guidance. Dr. King pushed for equality until the day he was assassinated on April 4th, 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee.

Freedmen’s social identity was constructed through their work. Where slaves quantitatively outnumbered freedmen, freedmen qualitatively outranked slaves as agents and entrepreneurs. Whereas unskilled slaves were easily replaceable, skilled freedmen were not. In crucial sectors of the economy, slavery was a passing phase necessary to produce freedmen: an investment in human resources yielding its greatest fruits after manumission (Ramsby 2013, p.88). Freedmen bore the fruits of the investments made by their former owners in both practical training and education. Freedmen were agents of the Roman slave economy, not only being products of the system, but also often owning slaves themselves at some point.

I saw The Great Society at the Dallas Theater Center on 3/17/2018. My first impression was astonishment. It was so outstanding I stayed after to listen to a lead actor answer any questions from the audience. LBJ fights a “war on poverty” at home, the war in Vietnam starts to spiral out of control. Besieged by political enemies, Johnson desperately fights to pass civil rights legislation and some of the most important social programs in American history, even as the country turns against him and descends into chaos. Filled with a cast of legendary characters—from Martin Luther King, Jr. to Bobby Kennedy and Richard Nixon—The Great Society is an exhilarating examination of power, morality and change.

It has been said that many years ago, the amount of money or power an individual and their family had defined them. People were so hungry for the utmost of power, that wars and violent outbreaks scarred the Earth. After seven world wars, three hundred and eighty seven major attacks, and hundreds of years later, the human race has transformed itself. How, you may ask. They called it “The Inauguration”. A one week running congregation was held after the end of World War 7. Each nation sent their leader, a representative from their upper class citizens, a representative from their middle class citizens and a representative from their lower class citizens. Today, these individuals are remembered as “The Benefactors”. We learn about how beneficial
