1- Part 1 Language in a Cultural Context I chose to use Bayard Rustin’s “Montgomery to Stonewall” essay as my text source, due to its metaphors that help compare the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s and other notable social movements to the Gay Liberation Movement of the 1970s. I will be writing in a speech text type using my text source as inspiration. The speaker in my poem is a young African American female who is inspired by Rustin’s message to continue fighting for racial equality and equality

how diverse groups pursued women’s liberation. The emphasis for particular issues could vary between women due to differences in class. For instance, a middle-class woman may put more focus on the dissatisfaction of being a housewife than working class woman who has to take on jobs to support their family may.

Almost all animal research is conducted for better understanding of human diseases and illnesses, rarely are animals used for the benefits of animals. Is the pain felt by animals worth the advances in human understandings? I will discuss what animals are used for, why they are used, the ethical dilemma of animal research, laws relevant to the study of animal experimentation and my personal stance on the matter.

Adrianna Steele Dr. Beutel ENG 101 November 18, 2014 Animal Rights: Where Are The Limits? Do animals deserve the natural rights humans have?

Many animal right activists go as far as breaking the law as an attempt to get the point across about the wellbeing of animals in science labs instead of being civil about the

From Erasistratus of Alexandria to Galen, who is known as the creator of experimental physiology, animals have been test subjects in experiments for more than two thousand years (Day 35). Every year in the world as many as twenty-two million animals are used for scientific or medical purposes (Day 10). A variety of animals are experimented on, including rats, mice, rabbits, dogs, cats, and primates (Day 10). Those against animal research believe the tests are pointless (Day 10). They presume

Another quote once said was by Martin Luther King Jr stating “Never, never
