ideologies about religion, science, and the world today.

The first character introduced is the youngest student from the team, 14 year old, James Farmer Jr. He is an ambitious young man who strives to live up to his father’s expectations. James struggles with fear throughout the movie. He is sheltered and does not understand the severity of the racial conflict of the time. This trait is evident in the film in two key scenes

Luckily for me, “Employment of physicians and surgeons is projected to grow 14 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations” (Bureau of Labor Statistics). After graduating from high school next May, I plan to major in Engineering, and then go on to Medical School in order to become a Neurosurgeon.

The debate team erupted in a great debate. The team captain argued and fussed, while the team members scrambled to find a solution. The team captain started to push of the members when the lead singer stepped in to interrupt. "You guys stop !" Callie said " showing your anger in a fuss, you must be disgusted!". "I'll tell a story about how wrath can be deadly, it's a must." One upon a time there lived a young man by the name of Jimmy. He was an average sized fellow and very bright. Although he

In 2017 alone, there have been multiple riots born of originally peaceful protests. Students in Middlebury College in Vermont revolted at a peaceful debate with far-right Charles Murray. While Murray tried to reach his building, a mob formed, forcing him and his debate-partner, Allison Stanger, to move to another building (Beinhart np). When Murray and Stanger tried
