    Donald L. Niewyk’s fifth and sixth chapters both deal more with outside perspectives and outside reactions than it does with those who were persecuted. The fifth chapter, “Bystander Reactions,” offers four different arguments as to why bystanders acted they way they did during the Holocaust. The sixth chapter, “Possibilities of Rescue,” discusses three different viewpoints on what foreign governments could have done to prevent the Holocaust. These two chapters conclude Niewyk’s book The Holocaust and wrap up the final sequence of events surrounding the Holocaust and the camps.…

    Texas history, as we learned about it in text books, has only told half of the story of Texas Independence. Every school child learns the story of the Alamo and how the brave souls paid with their lives for our freedom. What the historians failed to mention was all of the patriots who were involved, leading up to the Alamo and those who fought after. One of these patriots was Juan Sequin, who ended up paying for his patriotism with banishment, and being marked a traitor. It would be many years after his death before the full story of what this man, and others, actually achieved.…

    On December 7, 1941, America entered the Second World War, when Japan attacked US ships at Pearl Harbor. Even though the Nazis were defeated in May of 1945, the Japanese were relentless in their imperialistic pursuit to show their power.

    As the United States population grew and whites continued to seize land from the American Indians, these Indians had to either adapt to these whites’ way of life or be isolated from all their traditional ways of living and be left to fend for themselves. In the nineteenth century, many commentators believed that these American Indians would find difficulty with modernization and adaptation. While this belief proved to be false, there are many sources that could possibly argue in favor of these commentators’ arguments. As more immigrants infiltrated the United States from Europe, there came an increased support for education in an attempt to establish cultural values that were shared by the majority of citizens. Americanization policies stated…

    As we have discussed before, both violence and oppression manifest in various forms, however the idea of language-based violence is still novel to mainstream society. As the readings this week illustrated, language based violence and physical violence occasionally share a common root in gender-based oppression. Both Solnit and Anzaldúa write specifically about how "language is a male discourse" (Anzaldúa: 78) and how this discourse creates a knowledge among women that "this is not their world" (Solnit 2008). hooks states that the oppression created by structured languages and spaces as intertwined. She argues that activist must make the margin a site of resistance instead of a space of disadvantage, just as we must learn to accept the oppressor’s language as a tool for creating internal revolutions (hooks: 2009, 2004). Finally, Wright connects all three, space, language and gender in her analysis of the Nercopolitics and Femicide in Ciudad Juárez. Wright demonstrates how patriarchal language, such as the term "public women" when coupled with…

    According to Peter Railton we should feel uneasy when fact/value distinction is similar to objectivity/subjectivity and reason/emotion. If we stop viewing fact and value as distinct the facts may be softened while the values may be hardened. Railton is concerned with generic/non-moral goodness or intrinsic value. The philosophical defense of fact/value distinction consists of the arguments from rational determinability, internalism, and the argument from “queer-ness.” Rational determinability are factual disputes that can be resolved by appealing to reason and experience, but facts are hard. Internalism and instrumentalism supports the fact and value distinction. Thinking of goodness can be similarly relative to “nutritiveness,” that all organisms require nutrition but do not utilize the same nutrients. There is no absolute nutrient, meaning that there is no such thing as something being nutritious for all organisms, there is only relational nutritiveness. Railton also believes that someone being good involves what he or she would want for themselves while being free of “cognitive error or lapses of instrumental rationality.” The argument from queerness (which concerns the nature of reality), provides that human motivational system and situations support counterfactuals to characterize intrinsic goodness. Determinates are factors that influence desires we form and how such desires will evolve In response to many changes including one’s own belief, however an actual individual’s beliefs will fall short of expressing full information. Naturalness consists facts about a given person’s “psychology, physiology, and circumstances that are reduction basis” of his or her dispositions to desire. One’s own good can play a role in evolution in their own behavior even without forming an accurate idea of…
