The Short StoryWhat Of This Goldfish Would You Wish?

The scene in this story that supports that you should not accept those different from you is when Yoni is killed. Sergei hit Yoni with a burner because Yoni forced his way into Sergei's home and was recording Sergei's magic gold fish. The reason this supports that you should not accept those different from you is that Yoni could have been a criminal and he just barging into Sergei's home . If Sergei just accepted Yoni he could have been killed. Sergei is different from most because he just walks up to random people houses and starts recording them like its normal but how many people just go around recording people and forcing them selves into people's

In the Texas v. Majority court case, the theme is tolerance is the driving force of the short read. The Supreme Court argued that we must be tolerant of Gregory Lee Johnson for his desecration of the American Flag as it is freedom of speech and would be unconstitutional to imprison him for exercising his first amendment freedoms. Another argument states that Johnson should have been tolerant of the United

In the court opinion “Texas v. Johnson” by William J. Brennan there are examples that portray that knowing someone's rights are important in acceptance. “We submit that nobody can suppose that this one gesture of an unknown man will change our nation's attitude towards its flag.” (Brennan 2). This quote is saying that just because one person does something wrong we can’t judge other people for someone else’s wrongs. This quote goes along with Barbara Jordan’s quote because even though someone has done something wrong and they are different from ourselves we have to be willing to accept someone.” (Brennan 2). The way to preserve the flag’s special role is not to punish those who feel differently about these matters.” This quote also portrays that we have to accept those who feel differently about the things that we feel towards. This quote goes along with Barbara Jordan’s quote because it is saying that we have to accept those who feel differently from our

“It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences,”- Unknown. William Kent Krueger uses this theme in his book Ordinary Grace. Acceptance is seen in Ordinary Grace more times than it is not. Ordinary Grace is a tremendous book with many ups downs and surprises.

Allen, shows a great way of learning how to accept people who are different. Allen does show acceptance. On lines 2-4, Allen states, “...held that a person has a right to express disagreement with governmental policies by burning the American Flag.” Allen is saying that anyone is allowed to express their own feelings and opinions. On lines 75-76 Allen also states that “After all, it is in robust debate that we are most true to ourselves.” No matter what everyone is always going to have their own opinions and feelings. Everyone has the right to show discrimination and

Have you ever discriminated against someone or been discriminated against because you were different? Frankenstein is a book that explores society and human behavior when someone different is introduced. It says that humans are not always willing to introduce someone new to their society and that sometimes they tend to discriminate against the different one. To show this, the writer used a monster which was introduced to a human society. This monster is rejected everywhere he goes because of his difference. He is rejected by his creator, and then he is rejected by the villagers, by the farmers who the monster had so long admired and in the end by the reader himself.

Do you think that it is important to learn about and accept other people? I believe that it can benefit us all if we did. I have a quote that I believe is a foundation for my views. “We as human beings, must be willing to accept people who are different from ourselves”, written by Barbara Jordan, is a quote that means people should be able to put aside their beliefs of one another. Two texts that I will be discussing: “American Flag Stands for Tolerance” and “Universal Declaration of Independence”, along with contents from the documentary “My So-Called Enemy” will be used to show you why it is important to accept others that our different from ourselves. We people need to try to understand that everybody has somethings that contrasts from the next person. No one always agrees with someone else, nor do we share same opinions, ideas, or likings, however those things that make us different are actually what makes us same.

Some humans can’t accept difference. Most humans are locked up in a world where everyone has to be just like them. The novel Downsiders by Neal Shusterman is an example of this. The novel has the theme that when people separate into groups and cultures, they have a hard time understanding the opposite and tend to judge. But those who accept, benefit greatly.

If someone is different than others it doesn't mean they're not equal. Many people treat others by first impressions, by what they're told, how they, and or even how they dress. It's sad, people never get to know another person before judging them, but in the story “Raymond’s Run,” by Toni Cade Bambara, Hazel learns that everyone should be treated equally and with respect.

Ray Bradbury shows us that people with a difference are ostracised and hated with the example of how the children treat Margot differently for being different to them. He explains by using contrasting sensory imagery just how much just the way that a person acts can make them look different to everyone else and how much they stand out in a crowd. He is also implying to us that just because someone is different it doesn’t mean we have to exclude them just because that’s what normally happens because you might just cost them the joy for the next seven years to

In the stories "The Interlopers" and "What of this Goldfish, Would you wish?", they show that it is important to accept others that are different from yourself by proving that you need to know someone before you judge them and comprehend someone's culture and background and who they are in order to accept them. In each story, it is shown that it is very important to get all the information before you can accept someone, even when they're from another country or even right down the street from you. Collectively, both stories show sacrifice of ignorance and the gain of knowledge is a huge part of acceptance. In the story "The Interlopers", we find two men, Ulrich von Gradwitz and Georg Znaeym, who have held a grudge against one another over a plot of land and hated each other for years because the other intevened with the land they wanted.

If you are different, you’ll likely be treated as a stranger, someone who doesn’t fit in. Humans are social being, we require human interaction from time to time. Left isolated for too long often leads to loneliness, low self-esteem, depression, or possibly death. Something that can fill the void of someone’s heart is another person. It is through acceptance

The allegory that the author is using is even though some people reject you for being different there is always a person who will

It is important to tolerate others because it will help you become a more progressive person. Meaning that you learn all the new “trends” faster than most people. For example, Abraham Lincoln set the “trend” for civil rights in the 1860’s to abolish slavery. Abraham Lincoln didn’t care what you looked like he just wanted everyone to be equal. This is important because it showed that his tolerance made him progressive.

When individuals don’t understand differences, they tend to interpret them in a distorted form. Sometimes we do this purposely, declaring to see others dimly as if looking through a glass that will not shine (Angelou). It is simply easier to see what one wants to see and believe what one wants to hear. As a society we struggle to look beyond what we think we know and find our minds polluted with assumption. These assumptions cloud our perspective and so “When we are not knowledgeable about others we often become close minded and can only see them as one thing” (Adichie). These singular ideas define the entire person creating unfair stereotypes, “... and the
