This outburst is fueled by the kind of rage that bell hooks describes in Killing Rage. hooks asserts that for white people, black rage “must always remain repressed, contained, trapped in the realm of the unspeakable” (Killing Rage 12). She critiques black psychiatrists William Grier and Price Cobbs, who wrote the book Black Rage and described such as a sign of powerlessness. hooks argues: “they did not urge the larger culture to see black rage as something other than sickness, to see it as a potentially healthy, potentially healing response to oppression and exploitation” (Killing Rage 12). Because black rage was seen as something that could get black bodies murdered, it was supposed to be contained and hidden. hooks’ view of rage as something vital for the well-being of black individuals is important in the context of Assata’s autobiography. At one point, Assata states that white people could never understand someone becoming a Black revolutionary because “they had so little to revolt against” (119).

Writing, then, serves as a form of exorcism, a way to cleanse out the anger from the spirit by channeling it into a creative outlet. The book itself encompasses black rage from

This Boy’s Life by Tobias Wolff, a memoir about the life a young boy growing up in a broken family, is an extremely enjoyable book. I was assigned to read this book during my American Literature class, but it was so entertaining, that I would like to read it again on my own time.

I very much enjoyed this book because it included real-life situations of social and financial statuses, broken families, abuse, and negative influences. Throughout all the negative influences that occurred to him in his life, he still made an effort to become the sophisticated boy he has always looked at himself

I have to make an attempt to escape. At night, I was thinking of various plans that could be executed to escape successfully.

Third, Aj doesn’t deserve being in jail. This is why you should let him out. T-T-Thank you!” That was no help!

Human beings were settled on Earth to cultivate its contents and thrive off of nature. As humans began to reproduce, a form of communication needed to be established; it started with drawings and moved toward hand gestures. Gradually, our skills were honed and grew more elaborate using syllables and vocals to develop voice, with the murmurs being turned into collective phrases infused with emotion. This granted people the rights to express their opinion. They were able to comment on the weather or warn others of eminent danger. Occasionally, a few individuals used these words--as given to humanity as a responsibility--to invest their time degrading another individual. As this behavior continued, it became repetitive harassment, either
