When reading the article “The forgotten victim from Florence and Normandie” by Steve Lopez‚ I started to develop mixed feelings about this horrific incident. I was in disbelief that the LAPD did absolutely nothing to resolve this issue. I don’t understand how they were just able to sit and watch as innocent people were left defenseless against angry mobs. Many people were injured and robbed of their possessions. Leaving them to fend for themselves. I believe if the LAPD intervened there would have

Plato’s Cave: Still Current in Mass Media In the “Allegory of the Cave‚” Plato describes a group of stupefied people who have been trapped in a cave their entire lives. These prisoners are chained facing a wall; they cannot see anything except the shadows on that wall‚ which are being cast by men carrying unknown objects in front of a glowing fire.

In this paper‚ I argue Plato’s Allegory of the Cave justifies the need for a royal lie found in the Myth of the Metals‚ for the royal lie serves as an instrument towards achieving the ultimate polis.
