Indignation

When there is information, there is enlightenment. When there is debate, there are solutions. When there is no sharing of power, no rule of law, no accountability, there is abuse, corruption, subjugation, and indignation.” This is a quote by Atifete Jahjaga. This quote, in a way, represents another one of Piggy’s philosophies in life. In Chapter 2, Piggy continuously repeats the fact that he has the conch so he has the right to speak because it was a rule that they

self-assured. Angelou’s memoir, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, is a bildungsroman created by a progressive process of affirming identity and resisting racism. Angelou uses a sequence of lessons about identity and racism from helpless rage and indignation to forms of subtle resistance and finally outright protest to illustrate Angelou’s coming of age. At the beginning of the book, Angelou’s fantasy that she is “really white” with “light blue eyes” and “long blond hair” (Angelou 2) suggests racial

The Weimar Republic and Germany’s response which followed it are both stages of Germany’s intricate history that cannot be understood on their own. Both periods of Germany’s history have a commonality in their being brought on by the rippling effects of the Treaty of Versailles. This treaty was imposed on the German Empire at the final stages of the first World War. In an irregular way, considering the weight of the treaty, the Treaty of Versailles was signed among a group of national leaders which

“Oh, propriety...We’re always so concerned with propriety. Even in total madness, we will stick to our hierarchies and chains of command.” This concept--human concern with fitting societal standards and hierarchies--is a clear theme in Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness. Even as ivory transporter Charles Marlow journeys into Central Africa, a land described as “mad” and “savage”, those around him remain primarily interested in maintaining a set image and social standards, a strange concept amidst

In this paper I will discuss virtue ethics. I will start by describing and sharing what virtue ethics is, and move on to my thoughts on two critiques of virtue ethics. Virtue ethics is one out of the three main ideas in normative ethics. This form of ethics has a huge emphasize on the relationship between moral characters (virtues) and rules plus the possible consequences. There are different lists of virtues, but according to Socrates “virtue is knowledge” making knowledge the main or only true

narrative of Frederick’s plights for recognition as an intelligent human being—surprising for a former slave of that time period (1818-1895), the focus shifts ever-so slightly from the predicament the Africans of that time were enduring to his own indignation of the white man's epithet of black people as feral, as he tries to achieve acceptance pass the nearly insurmountable wall of ignorance and racial hate. When writing about his time as a slave there is an obvious shift from the subject of his people's

Gender Stereotyping in Elinor Burkett’s “What Makes a Woman?” In “What Makes a Woman”, Elinor Burkett provides her perspective on the trans movement and its marginalizing rhetoric about women. Identifying ‘women” as a product of social construction, Burkett establishes a sharp gender binary from the outset that differentiates trans women as ill-informed advocates of women. Transwomen fail to recognize that to be a woman consists of much more than mere recognition of physical characteristics consistent

Rochester’s unaccompanied bravery, Jane confronts Grace in order to get an honest explanation. In thought, Jane suggests calling Grace Poole a “Fiend,” who may have more plans of evildoing, but she realizes the thought proves “Indignation again prevailed over prudence,” (118). The “indignation,” or anger, being caused by her desire for Rochester’s safety. Jane is conscious of Grace’s suspicion, and takes caution in her words because of her fear of possibly getting herself into trouble or losing the trust of

The reason for savagery can be faulted for an assortment of things, for example, medications, groups, and the temperamental mindset of teenagers. A blend of these three things prompts savagery in the schools. Understudies have communicated their indignation and dissatisfaction on their associates in the most vicious and deadly way that could be available. They have open let go or put explosives which have slaughtered and harmed other kids and educators. It has been important to place cops inside and

Remember, I told you the Rapture is a type of ark. The first time God used an ark was to save people that believed in Him from the destruction of water. The second time will be to save the faithful from the destruction of fire with the ark of rapture by a Bridegroom. It has never been God’s method in the past to pour wrath out on believers! Noah and his family went inside of the ark seven days before the flood. The ark was a covering like a “huppa,” which is symbolic of heaven. The church will be
