Evan Cafiero Professor Mohammed MGT 110 Dec 2nd, 2015 Dan Savage Throughout the years, the LGBT community has made numerous strides in equality, recognition, and respect. Every rights movement has its origins, and the push for the LGBT community is no different. Beginning with the Stonewall Riots in New York 40-something years ago, to the protests against Proposition 8 on the west coast, leaders have emerged; countless Americans

What is the Rooney Rule? The Rooney Rule was established to encourage diversity in coaching or any top management position in the National Football League. It required teams to interview a minority candidate before making a head coach or head management hire. Do NFL officials still need the Rooney Rule? Yes, the Rooney Rule has helped force owners to cast a wide net, going from who you know system to who’s the best system. What should be done about the lack of minority coaches and general managers

Media has left an indelible mark on the lives of many generations before me, which is something I already knew. I’ve seen black-and-white clips of CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite as he heartbreakingly informed America on the assassinations of prominent figures like John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as breaking the Watergate scandal. I’ve seen syndicated Sanford and Son reruns, and I’ve listened to music from 70s and 80s artists like Blondie, The Mamas and Jim Croce. However, despite

The book I choose for this marking period was ”Angels and Demons” by Dan Brown. Dan Brown’s father was a math teacher and his mother was a church organist. This background paved the path where he developed a fascination with science and religion. These are themes seen in all of his books, especially this one, where he uses the idea that science and religion are intertwined. I felt that this story, driven by the theme of science and religion being the same thing, was a refreshing story that stood

The movie Rudy is about the life of Daniel E. “Rudy” Ruettiger, the protagonist or hero (page 59) and his journey (page 60) to pursue his dream of attending the University of Notre Dame and playing football for the Fighting Irish. Act I begins in the late 1960’s in a small town south of Chicago, Illinois, where Rudy grew up (ordinary world page 61). The antagonists or villains (page 59) of the story are his father, brothers, girlfriend and teachers. Throughout his life, they (the antagonists)

The battle for the state of Indiana is usually quite set. Indiana has long been considered to be a staunch Republican-supporting state, especially in Presidential races. The Hoosier state has only supported a Democratic candidate for president five times since 1900. These include Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt in two elections, Lyndon Johnson, and, by a mere 1% margin, Barak Obama. But, it is also interesting to note that eleven Democrats have been elected Indiana’s governor during that same

In his story “The way of the peaceful Warrior”, Dan Millman tells us about his experience with a white bearded man known as Socrates who takes him on many adventures and gives him knowledge on life. Although

Josh Brolin, the actor who played White, embodied the character in a way that the audience could understand. During the film, the audience can see that Harvey Milk and George Moscone developed a political relationship. Shortly after Dan White resigned his seat from the Board of Supervisors, Milk convinced Mayor Moscone that he would have a greater chance at being reelected mayor without White on the Board. Mayor George Moscone trusted Milk in this political judgment call. When the

Tupac Shakur Tupac was a leading American icon because he crossed cultural, racial, and economic barriers. From the child in the suburb to the former vice president of the United States, everyone recognized Tupac's iconic status. He had many traits that would make him stand out above the rest, and that is what made him the best. His traits are routed in his name because he was named after an Inca Indian revolutionary Tupac Amaru, which means "shining serpent", and Shakur is Arabic for "thankful

One Tree Hill “There are always stereotypes in high school. People are placed into groups. You’re a jock, you’re a cheerleader, you’re a freak, you’re into the drama department. I had a lot of trouble fitting into those groups when I was in high school because I wanted to be a part of all of them. One Tree Hill represents people who are multidimensional and who like more than one thing.” Hilarie Burton, who plays Peyton Sawyer, says it perfectly herself. One Tree Hill shows diversity among all.
