What Would You Do Analysis

Many are rich many are poor many have money many don’t. Have you ever had a moment where you did something selfish for desperation of money and karma hit you right back with a right hook?. And felt regret towards yourself. In the short story “Why, You Reckon” the author uses irony and dialogue, to show the audience that money can't buy happiness.

For my conceptual artifact, I decided to go with a film that I watched in High School called No One Would Tell. This film is a great example of dating violence and covers a lot of the phases of being in an abusive relationship. The film is centered around two main characters, Stacy Collins who is the girlfriend being abuse and Bobby Tennison who is the abusive boyfriend. This film goes to show how a relationship that looks happy to many people, may actually have darker secrets. Through the film we see the level of abuse rising, but at the same time we see Stacy falling prey to all of Bobby's pleas of forgiveness. Like in many real lifes cases of domestic abuse, it’s not as easy to get out as many people would think. Unfortunately, Stacy was

Since this essay was written, people have become more educated and understanding that all people, despite skin color, deserve to be treated humanely and equally with others. There are not as many extreme cases of racism, where people of white skin and black skin cannot go to the same movie theater, ride the same bus, or drink from the same water fountain. Unfortunately, the unconscious automatic responses of fear and threat of danger when perceiving a black man are still evident in society today. People are very hazardous and they are quick to assume danger because of the events that happen in society, especially with media covering street violence, “over-representing young black males as the perpetrators of that violence.” Therefore, people still grab their purses tighter, walk to the other side of the road, or

Being a man of color, Brent Staples realized he had inherited “the ability to alter public space in ugly ways.” Whether it came as a result from walking at night, going into a jewelry store and getting a doberman pinscher pulled out on him, to seeing people, especially women’s facial expressions change once they caught sight of his thuggish appearance. Although having a completely different perspective, internet blogger, JDOWSETT, possessed a similar ability. Not as a result of his skin color, but from riding a bicycle in a predominantly automobile environment located in Lansing, MI. Instead of people reacting to him like they would with Staples (downright terrified), drivers and pedestrians on the sidewalk would berate him for riding his bicycle although he followed all the necessary guidelines of riding his bicycle. Though they share completely different experiences, both of their respective events have one thing in common. In both of their experiences being an outlier has a negative effect on those who are privileged to drive an automobile or don’t have to be looked at differently due to their skin color. People like JDOWSETT and Brent Staples are those individuals who aren’t keeping up to the guidelines of the status quo. As a result they are negatively reacted to. Because there is just that one black guy in a street of white people or that one bicyclist in a road filled with automobiles, people will often gang up on them because they somebody that isn’t necessarily like

In my opinion, nothing can be done. I state that, because even in Biblical times the wealthy which were the Romans could do and get away with just about everything then as we are now. I once thought that knowledge was the key, but that only works individually and not collectively. As I have always stated lady Justice is not wearing a blind fold for no reason, she where it so that she does not have to see all the injustice that is going on in our society. Maybe if they took her blinders off then she could see her scale is not balanced at all. You see, we all want change, but talk is not good enough, because once everyone talks they go home and do nothing. Just as we all have a brain, we all can make a difference, but one person

Journalism and Politics are influential for people to be informed about and what is going on within the United States or internationally. Journalism is a great significant impact to politics, with the all the information from the Presidential Debate or what is going on with the war in Iraq. The audience can also visually see what they are being informed by the photojournalist who are taking photos to tell a story. In the novel, “It’s What I Do”, by Lynsey Addario talks about her personal experience about how being a photojournalist was tough when she traveled around some Latin American countries and the Middle East. In addition, to her being in the Middle East when there was a protest, she got captured along with some male journalists. For

I completed Try For Yourself 15.1. It covers the characteristic of mindfulness. I received a score of 5.06. The average score of 313 University of Rochester students was 3.72. The scale was from one to six, with higher numbers being associated with higher mindfulness.

You talk to yourself all the time, it is estimated that we have an internal dialogue of between 150 and 300 words a minute. And the way that you talk to yourself will have a significant impact upon both your state of mind and the likely outcome of your actions. This inner self talk will determine how you view yourself.

Learned how to strategize before writing a routine request up front is by making sure to pay attention to the tone in which you are writing, assume that the audience will comply with what I am writing or requesting of the audience, and to be specific in what I am writing. I learned about the three common types of routine request which consists of asking for information and action, asking for a recommendation, and lastly making claims and requesting adjustments. These components are crucial in the business world and any profession in that matter. In this section I was introduced on how to properly outline a strategy which will help to effectively write routine replies and positive messages. The final important

Noone likes to change. I believe that changing is one of the hardest things in the world. In order for me to get out of this situation, I need to help my parents. Instead of learing English alone, I decided to study English with my parents. We listened to American music, watched movies even cartoon together. Some people recommended me that watching cartoon is the fastest way to learn English so I listened to them. Actually, they were correct. My communication skills started improving. My parents could understand English little bit more and started having short conversation with other people. I took and passed driving exam before my parents so I usually sat next to either my mom or dad in the car while they were driving in order to give them more encouragement and confidence. They started feeling more comfortable and relax in

The second portion of the “Immunity to Change” course book is comprised of four chapters filled with examples of what group wide immunity issues look like, and how to go about unearthing valuable adaptive change from investigative and learning techniques. In one of the first chapters in Part II called: “Overcoming The Group Wide Immunity To change” quite often team, groups and big leadership sometimes insulate or protect themselves from the very change they need. In addition, its sometime the same immunities that can be use among teams to collectively empower themselves as they learn, thus saving the group from unspoken dangers that would otherwise become lethal if left unaddressed. I think these ties in great with the work we do in

I meant to say “when I said I am really lucky for you are mine,”

Robbie Lawler has slowly climbed the hill back to a title rematch with welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, but former lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos plans to send him tumbling down the welterweight rankings on Saturday in Winnipeg. The fight between Lawler and Dos Anjos headlines a loaded UFC Fight Night card in Canada.

A picture archiving and communications system (PACS) is defined as a means of computerizing radiological images. Conventional images are acquired, stored, transmitted, and displayed digitally using a PACS system. (Strickland, 2000)

As you are taking a stroll in your local park, you notice two men, one black and one white, forcefully trying to remove the locks off of two bikes. Both men are the same height, age, and are wearing similar clothing. You watch as people walk up to the white man asking if the bike belongs to him. He admits that it does not. The park goers do not take action against the white man. Conversely, when park goers approach the black man, they threaten to call the police, ask further questions, and characterize this man as a likely criminal. If you were watching the two men, one white and one black, breaking the locks of different bikes, whom would you label as a thief? What would you think? ABC News conducted this experiment to test the differences in our attitudes towards each race. Although Caucasians and African Americans were in the park together seemingly integrated, which was illegal a century ago, attitudes toward one another make integration appear unresolved. Despite government intervention to resolve racial inequality, racism, as a mentality, continues to exist in many segments of American society and preventing complete integration.
