Minorities are almost always judged based on stereotypes, that are given to them based on what people see on the outside, and they don't always see the best in the minority's.

The salesman says, “you name them he's on them. Parole boards, draft boards, school boards, taco quality control boards, surf boards, two by fours” (Valdez 109).

Prisoner without a Name, Cell without a number is a melancholy novel that expresses Argentina’s terrorist state. Jacob Timerman, a well respected man of Argentina, an editor of a well know Argentinian paper, La Opinion, tells the audience his story of the terrorist state of Argentina from 1967-1978. His gripping novel both describes his personal experience being kidnapped by terrorist, while he tells us about the condition of the terrorist state of Argentina. His book is important because it tells a first hand account of the fear, the distrust, and the mere insanity of conditions in the country of Argentina during its darkest time.

What I hope to do in this paper is to show that many of the philosophies Enrique Dussel writes about in his book Twenty Theses on Politics, have a direct correlation to what has become to be known as Argentina’s ‘Dirty War,’ with a particular interest on the struggle of the people, the ignorance towards them and the idea that they did not exist to their capturers’ except as ‘things at the disposal of the powerful.’ (TTP pg. 79). Their reaction to this type of oppression, after years of detention, torture and death, touches upon Dussel’s idea of the irruption of the collective conscious of a community that breaks the hold of the oppressor and ignites into a collective dissent.

In society, things are not as they seem at times. The criminal justice system was created to help deter crime and to punish those who break the law. Laws are put in place to be fair to all citizens. Your economic situation, gender, race should not become a factor for you to be given “due process”. Years have come and gone and the crime rates increases and decreases with the years. There have been many senseless killings and everyone has their point of view as to the causes. The focal point of this report will be the findings from the readings of, “The rich get richer and the poor get prison by Jeffery Reimer and Paul Livingston”. I will discuss the causes of the rise and fall of the many different types of crimes ; why the rise and fall of crime rates; what contribution has the criminal justice and or police system has contributed whether positive or negative; and lastly discuss which economic group ends up in prison and why.

Contreras then moves onto explain the way those who torture justify their actions. He presents four ways that “violence workers” justify their actions based off of Brazilian police tortures. Contreras says that men Like Gus cannot blame the victim for wrong

The acts of legal corruption detailed in this novel vary widely in character and severity. On the ground level of the legal system, the police force is described as an immoral hoard that is often more concerned with taking

During the movie No, the general environment in Chile was both repressive and free. This can be seen through multiple examples throughout the movie, however, for the purpose of this report, I will focus on two examples. The first example I will consider is the raid on the rally for No in which Renee’s wife was arrested. The second example I will consider that illustrates the freedom within Chile was the ability for the No campaign to even occur. I will then conclude with how this parallels to the democratization of Chile in being both free and repressive.

I decided to write this research paper because we were assigned to find an issue or subject within Latin America to write about. One of the most widely known and influential revolutionary figure in the history of Latin America is Ché Guevara. Ché knew how to use his intelligence and judgment in all the circumstances he encountered taking advantage of each moment as if it was a highly intensive chess game he was sincerely

I started my internship at Cook Children Healthcare System in January 2016. I selected mental health as an area of focus on which I wanted to work. Initially the learning goal was to study Community-wide Children 's Health Assessment & Planning Survey (CCHAPS) data well and look for factors causing mental health problems in six North Texas Counties. Initial task was to study as much literature as possible to get an idea what factors are causing mental health problems in children. After studying literature and CCHAPS survey data I discussed the goals and objectives of my research with supervisor Dr Jackie Meeks. I decided to work on the relation between not breastfeeding during early infancy and the development of mental health problems. I included known covariates like gender, bullying, age of the child, marital status of the parent, alcohol exposure during pregnancy, tobacco exposure during pregnancy and annual household income which are known to cause mental health problems in children. I was introduced to Mackenzie and Sheryl who are data analysts and know CCHAPS survey thoroughly. Entire Cook Children staff was very helpful and friendly. Experience at Cook Children was great in terms of learning and getting real world experience. I could not have asked for a better internship site than Cook Children. It is rated among top job in the DFW because everyone is so positive and helpful. I was hesitant initially to perform data

Approximately two centuries after the death of Jesus Christ religious iconography began. During the Medieval period art iconography related to the texts found in the Bible. This paper will analyze two arts containing Christian iconography that illustrate the return of naturalism. This paper will analyze the iconography of two medieval works from the early medieval period (500-1200) and one from the late medieval period (1200-1400). Both works of art depict the crucifixion of Jesus Christ (John 19:17-37). According to the Bible, Jesus was loathed by the Jewish leaders because he preached of God and people listened, believed, and followed him. For this reason the Jewish leaders ordered him to be killed. Jesus was taken to Pilate and placed

Drug cartels have grown and expanded throughout the interior and exterior of states for many years. The way drugs started to be introduced to Mexico, Colombia, and other places around the world was believed to be a myth. It was a tale that was known by many through storytelling, which over the years turned into an actual realistic issue. One of the most known cartels that existed for a long time was The Medellin Cartel. It became a subculture of its own, creating a world full of violence, women, money, firearms, death but most importantly power and fear. Located in Colombia this brutal subculture will show how they become one of the wealthiest subculture in the world surpassing even its own country’s riches.

On September 18, 2017, I attended both a local court and district court. The cases I saw on this day differed in multiple approaches when allowing one to go about their court hearing. After witnessing two different courts and cases, I executed the differences between the process of justice being managed and the ideal of justice being done. I believe the local court relates to the idea of the sociological theory of criminology due to the idea of the society having an impact on one’s actions. Both courts also coincide with the symbolic image of the “Lady of Justice” and how a court sentence can be balanced, fair, impartial, and has the power to induce a punishment on the guilty. The district court differed demonstrating the criminological theory by allowing the offender the chance to explain and justify their criminal behavior.
