Sam Hananel: News Article Analysis
On June 12, 2017 at 12:02 pm PBS News Hour posted “Supreme Court strikes down gender differences in citizenship law” by Sam Hananel. The news article expresses the difference between fathers and mothers who are trying to obtain U.S citizenship for a child born outside the United States. The title is self-explanatory and reveals that the Supreme Court has made an act to change the citizenship law. The law favored mothers because it is believed they are the ones who care for the child. American mothers are only required to live in the United States for a year. If the mother has lived for a year before the child is born then the child is granted U.S citizenship. It was in fact the opposite for American fathers because in order for the child to

    Do Anchor Babies have the Right to Dock on U.S. Land?

    It is well known that a person born in the United States is an automatic citizen regardless of the mother's citizenship status. However, the United States is unusual in its offer of citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil. Only a few European countries still grant automatic citizenship at birth. The United Kingdom and Australia repealed their U.S. style policy in the 1980s after witnessing abuses similar to those plaguing the U.S. today. Why does the United States continue to allow a practice subject to widespread fraud? The answer lies in how American jurisprudence has interpreted the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.…

    Knocked Up Textual Analysis

    Intended for the enjoyment of the present-day youth generation, the 2007 comedy film Knocked Up deals with more than just comedic issues. Technically introduced as a romantic comedy, this film serves more to its comedic orientation. With awkward romance and stoner mannerisms, the laughs are plentiful for the intentional audience of Knocked Up. However, as the audience is served its fill of laughter, issues are presented that rarely grace the silver screen. The director of this film, Judd Apatow, utilizes his dominion and influence over the audience to introduce the dominant ideology of Knocked Up. As seen in his previous film, The 40 Year Old Virgin, it is evident that the good guy can get the girl and in doing so may come along some unexpected complications. Apatow’s use of comedy in this media context to present such complications leads the audience to conclude that they too should adapt to his alternative approach to unplanned pregnancies in this present day.…

    Ghose argues that being able to determine the sex of the baby could potentially lead to a sex-discrimination against women in society. This article also brings up the idea that if a parent was able to choose the traits of the child, this can worsen the relationship between the parent and the child, due to the fact that this can parents could be presented with tyrannical expectations (Ghose 2014). If a parent is able to dictate the traits of the child, this could hypothetically put pressure on the child that should also have the rest of his life…

    Child Custody

    In the United States today more than one-half of all marriages end in divorce. The purpose of this paper is to examine the reason why women have typically received custody of the children far more often than the fathers. In order to better understand child custody one must first examine how fathers have often times been left out of the picture, and conversely why mothers have had such hard times raising children on their own. This paper will first examine the perspective of a father who has lost custody of his children.…

    Women's Reproductive Rights Movement Analysis

    As history has shown us, the mid twentieth century was a time for inspirational and instrumental societal change within the United States. Not only did we have the civil rights movement—a movement that peacefully and strategically fought for the rights and equality of African Americans—but we also had other social movements, such as the women’s reproductive rights movement, which was a movement that fearlessly fought for reproductive rights and overall equality for the women of the United States. Unfortunately, however, as will be discussed in the paragraphs that follow, while the reproductive rights that were acquired were originally intended to benefit all women, due to the nation’s (and white feminists’) racial and classed biases at the…

    Maternity Leave Benefits

    The United States is one of only three countries remaining that do not guarantee paid maternity leave to mothers. This becomes a problem not only for new mothers, but also creates a potentially stressful environment for both the newborn and the family. Unsubstantial and unpaid parental leave in the United States contributes to the gender pay gap, is damaging to new mothers, and contributes to the drop in birth rates amongst women in high paid positions.…

After being denied for an appeal in the lower court, James appealed his decision to the Supreme Judicial Court.

    Persuasive Essay About Immigration

    Society as a whole generally thinks of immigrants as a liability and as individuals who come to the contry to steal jobs and take resources away from citizens. For that reason, they find it easy to handcuff them at any time and send them straight back to where they came from, but we never really think about who we’re actually impacting by doing that. People who come to this country are usually looking to better their lives, and that includes having a familly, but because of this their children are considered US born citizens while the parents are still deported as illegal immigrants, leaving the children as orphans. “...two reports, which lay out 72,410 removals of immigrants who said they had one or more US-born children in 2013.”(Foley 2) By removing the parents from the children’s lives, our government leaves an immense negative impact on the child and that can cause them to resent the government in the future and that might lead to a life of crime and rebellion against the government in the future. For these reasons I believe that we need to rethink how we go about handling immigrants with an established life in this country because, by removing one person we’re not only affecting them, we’re affecting their entire familly and that kind of loss is…
