    The book, Honor and the American Dream: Culture and Identity in a Chicano Community, and the film, Salt of the Earth, both relay to their audience, the pursuit of happiness within the Chicano community in which they live. These works aim to show how Mexican-American immigrants fight to keep both their honor and value systems alive in the United States of America, a country which is foreign to their traditions. The Mexican-Americans encountered in these works fight for their culture of honor in order to define themselves in their new homeland, a homeland which honors the American dream of successful capitalism.…

    In today’s world, there are so many different ideas on how women should live and who we are as women. It is so easy to get caught up in the lies of this world; including the lies about who God is and also about who we are.

    The book I chose to read was “When I Say No, I Feel Guilty” by Manuel J. Smith. The first thing to stand out to me in this book was it seemed a little outdated. Even though the writing style and the examples appeared to be from a different era, I was still able to see how different points were relevant today and to me personally. This title screamed my name when I was browsing the list of choices because no matter what I am saying no to, I always feel guilty.…

    Mohandas Ghandi, the political and ideological leader of India at the Indian Independence period once said, “To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse than starving the body; it is starvation of the soul the dweller in the body.” This quote strongly demonstrates the importance of fundamental human rights. In this regard, Surrender or Starve and Dead Aid, two special books relating to the dismal situation of the postwar period in 1980s is qualified in Ghandi’s view of significance of rights. While Surrender or Starve deeply points out effects of ineffective governments and horrible civil wars on African ordinary people and the world, Dead Aid underscores the state of postwar development policy in Africa today relating to ‘aid, it is apparent by juxtaposing these two works that Africa in 1980s felt trapped in a dismal society that restricted fundamental liberty and had declined economic growth.…

    The Year of the Law

    • 1789 Words
    • 8 Pages

    If one were to hazard a summary characterisation of the year gone by, and the promise of the year to come, it would be this: India’s citizens are waking up to claim possession of that vital idea, the rule of law. India has been an anomaly: A republic without the rule of law. In a republic, the rule of law is not founded just on populism, the need for deterrence, or some vague idea of the welfare of the people. It is meant to give full expression to the idea that we are free and equal as citizens, that law protects each of us as individuals, grants us the respect and secures our dignity. But this is one experience our republic did not give us. What should have been the site of our liberation became the symbol of our subjugation; the source of our safety became a source of insecurity, and the protector of our dignity often a source of humiliation. The law, even in the best of circumstances, carries an aura of theological mystery, of the kind Kafka depicted. Or worse, it can represent the corrupt and manipulable system still so resonantly portrayed in Dickens’ Bleak House. But Indian law did not even aspire to fulfil its republican promise. Instead, it took a structure crafted by a colonial state to reproduce the very…

    While a nation is built thousands of people sacrifice and are subjected to untold suffering. Freedom is thus acquired and earned. Freedom is not something which is given away to anybody. It is rather earned and then enjoyed. If anyone is eligible for the freedom one can not be denied it for long. India our motherland was under the foreign rulers for nearly two centuries. We lost our freedom to them because we ceased to be eligible for it. The moment the Indians became qualified for freedom they could not be denied it for long. And the qualification to freedom is measured only by duties and responsibilities. This is why they say responsibility is the price for freedom.…

    Kayla Williams’, Love My Rifle More Than You, is unlike any war memoir I have ever heard of or read. Williams was part of the 15% of female soldiers in the U.S. Army. She shares her experiences in the war in Iraq in a courageous way. Everything she says in the memoir is straightforward. She does not hesitate to say anything about what it was like to be a female in the war. The memoir was not only written to inform society of what life was like being a female in the war, but it was also written to empower women everywhere. It seems as though Williams wrote this in order to address the issues that females face being in the army as a major minority to males. She is fearless in the way that she does not try to sugarcoat any of her experiences. She tells every story and aspect of the army exactly how it is without leaving out any details.…

    Beginning chapter one with citing one of the ten commandments, “Thou shall not steal,” Wayne Grudem sets the stage of what is about to come; a black and white analysis on how having business success does not necessarily make you fall short of being a “good” Christian. As a well-known, very credible Christian theologist, one may wonder why Grudem would venture out to right a book solely about business. “Business for the Glory of God,” looks at business ownership, profitability, money, competition, and borrowing and lending, just to name a few topics. This essay will take a look at a few of the controversial topics, and share insight of why they may or may not be feasible arguments for why business is, “a gift from God.”…
