Sugar Mama Case Study
Oscar,

I agree that the word "sugar mama" is a derogatory term that I shouldn't of used and normally don't, but found somewhat fitting in the "playful" context of this situation. If you look at the previous post, I was clearly trying to be helpful. The difference in the second post was the slight change in tone. I posed the question (in a somewhat snarky and playful way) asking you if you were looking for a "sugar mamma." I never stated this was the case. My reasons for doing this was for you to reanalyze what you had written and clarify. Honestly, when you used the term women who "run in my circles" and wanting women to "treat" you, I found these statements somewhat close-minded and snobby, which bothered me frankly. On one hand, I

    The Sugar Act, also known as The American Revenue Act, was passed by Great Britain’s Parliament on April 5, 1764. The Sugar Act involved taxing imported items like sugar, molasse, wine, coffee, etc. that were delivered to the colonies. The Sugar Act basically replaced the Molasse Act (1763), which was just having to pay taxes when buying molasse, but just added more items to the “taxed list”. Parliament used the tax money to help pay the debt of the French and Indian War. The act caused many financial problems with the lower class colonists and even led some to protest the act. About 50 merchants decided to join up to boycotted certain taxed items and grow/make the items themselves. The following year it was eventually repealed due to the colonist’s…

    Since they entered the snack food market in 1919, Hostess introduced their classic Hostess CupCake and their famous Twinkies, which were invented in 1930 and became their best-selling snack cake. Less than a century later, Hostess filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2004. Hostess managed to fend off the temptation to sell and emerged from bankruptcy in 2007. However, in an article detailing Hostess’s recent past Steven Bertoni explains, “After over a decade of failing health that saw two bankruptcies and five different CEOs, Hostess finally died on Nov. 16, 2012” (Bertoni, 2015).

    • 4 Pages

    As depicted from the case study, sugarcane was a major commodity, which facilitated slave trade during the colonial time. Sugarcane was used to manufacture a drink called the Kill-devil, which was better compared to the expensive bear and wine. This drink evolved during the colonial time and kept on changing names from Kill devil to Rumbullion based on the ingredients added to the canned sugar. The name Rumbullion was later shortened to Rum. During this colonial time, sugarcane planting was an important activity since sugar had several important uses. Sugarcane planting was a major factor that facilitated slave trade since the increase in demand of the rum meant that there was the need to plant more sugar. Therefore, this called for more slaves…

The two documentaries, "Good Meat" and "Bad Sugar" talk about how diabetes has become common amongst the Native American tribes.

    The paucity of power is one struggle which many marginalised groups experience. Repeatedly, the "inferior" individuals are forced to collude with the dominant culture's practices and beliefs. Jack Davis' play, No Sugar, relates the various ways in which different characters react to the pressure to conform to contemporary Australian society, and the effect this has on their survival. The initial behaviour of characters such as Sam, Jimmy, Billy, David and Cissy sometimes foreshadows their ultimate fate of survival or demise. The power dominant white males in authority exhibit over other characters in the text, particularly and specifically the Aboriginal community, plays a key role in conveying the unequal power relations of society, and the way in which this behaviour forces minority groups to assimilate into society's expectations by losing their own cultural identity.…

    Mama Archetype Essay

    Furthermore, her characteristics align with that of the ‘Mammy’ archetype, and she is portrayed as an elderly, loving motherly figure, providing to her family’s needs. However, she is also depicted as somewhat uneducated and bound by the traditions of her past, which reinforces the ‘Mammy’ archetype, of a women who despite being a caring motherly figure, does not know much outside of her household duties due to a lack of opportunity to further educate herself. This ‘uneducated’ attitude can be particularly seen through Mama’s interactions with Beneatha, a more educated and modern young female characters, in their discussions regarding heritage and education. Mama is unable to understand Beneatha’s refusal to assimilate and need to express herself as an African-American women who is proud of her heritage, asking her continuously ‘what is it you want to express?’ This creates a sense of irony around the situation by displaying Mama’s lack of understanding towards Beneatha’s desire to destroy societies black stereotypes, whilst allowing Hansberry to simultaneously reinforce the concept that Mama is a stereotypical character stuck in the ‘Mammy’ archetype and unable to break out of it.…

    lord sugar

    Lord Sugar is obviously in control of the entire boardroom, he shows this through his choice of spoken language and body language; by saying “can I clarify one thing”. This reminds the candidates of Lord Sugar’s powerful position and where the future employee will stand with him; this also provides a challenge to the eager entrepreneurs which they will enjoy. By him saying this, Lord Sugar is reasserting his authority and dominating the whole room. Lord Sugar appears as a dictator because he sets all the boundaries of the tasks, the timing, the teams, the rewards and humiliating the team that fails to win the task. By humiliating them, it makes them look like puppets in his game, as it is his TV show. However he is not completely in control as it seems, he doesn’t attend the tasks and he also gets assistance from colleagues in interview week and most of the editing is done by actual editors not himself. Lord Sugar also uses long utterances, showing his control over the candidates, as Lord Sugar is the one who is the least interrupted, also indicating that the contestants respect him. The word “clarify” to make clearer or to understand; he uses this as a word that will give him power and control over the contestants. Again this undermines them as Lord Sugar is showing them up by having to explain things to the candidates. By using “can” it suggests that Lord Sugar is trying to be softer on the candidates by suggesting that he knows what his role is, putting them back in their place doing so in firm…
