In Paying for the Party, the authors discuss the “isolates” found within college dorms and greek housing alike. For female isolates, a friend was someone who “willingly socialized with another woman and regularly included her in activities like going out for meals, doing laundry, watching TV, and partying (if so inclined).” Social isolates willingly align themselves with others who share their interests and motives in life. However, there are limitations and exceptions to this rule. Isolation is

Due to how many countries in Africa were used in Cold War proxy wars, an important question is, "Which of the superpowers had a larger influence on Africa?"

To imperial Europeans, Africa was a resource in itself. It was stuffed with diamonds, precious metals, oil, and even luxury goods such as the lucrative ivory. It was a land of potential profit, and every monarch wanted a share of the land. This land was home to thousands of tribes that existed independently of one another. In these tribes, there were unique cultures that had existed for centuries, and those living in these tribes were just as absorbed in their culture as the Europeans were in their

The Black Arts Movement (or BAM) is a Black Power Movement started in 1960, lasting up to 1975 by a group of African American poets, writers, playwrights and many more. Artists in the Black Arts Movement focus their attention on societal problems and makes point about said problem through their works. They expose issues African Americans face such as segregation/desegregation, prejudice, racial consciousness, identity, protest, and violence. Adrienne Kennedy's 1964 play, Funnyhouse of a Negro is

world's imperialism in the Congo. Europe and America are the image of racism and greed that corrupts the Congos way of life. The United States and Europe insert themselves into the Congolese formation of a government system and assassinate Patrice Lumumba then replacing him with Mobutu, a leader loyal to the United States, that receives the riches extorted from his country. Kingsolver uses Nathan Price and Brother Fowles polar opposite standpoints to show how missionaries deal with the Congos moralistic
