George Washington Williams, an African American legislator, and Kande Kamara, an African colonial subject, both experienced some of the most brutal products of European Imperialism. Williams, in the late nineteenth century, toured the Belgian controlled Congo and witnessed the harsh measures King Leopold implemented to maintain absolute control and bleed the country of its resources. Kamara, on the other hand, bore witness to the end result of overzealous imperial ambitions when he was forced to fight for the allies in the trenches of WWI. These two men’s experiences, although considerably different, both shed light on Europe’s colonial philosophy of racism and ethnic superiority and its position of immense power during this period.

Henry Drummond: A Devil in the Courtroom In Inherit the Wind by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee, the defending attorney Henry Drummond clearly impacts the society of Hillsboro more than any other character in the play because of his ability to manipulate the citizens of the society and his decision to question the prosecuting attorney as a witness.

My character was a 22 year Tutsi named Frederick. In a perfect world, my character (Frederick) would get all of the land that is rightfully his given back to him and he would be able to graze his cows and farm wherever he pleases.

Throughout the story, Dick shows several similar characteristics between him and a tiger, one of which is being passionate. A tiger is eager about catching his prey, which is similar to Dick being enthusiastic about his religion. Dick would attend church three times a week and the narrator states "his eyes would be red, as if he had been weeping. We would know, then, that he had been reading his Bible" (Wolfe 726). Dick is seemingly devoted to his religion, however this did not stop him from committing the grave sin of murder.

Between these two, they discuss how each of them take books seriously, but Gordy describes each book as a mystery, saying to Junior that “[he] should approach each book… with the real possibility that [he] might get a metaphorical boner at any point.” (Alexie 97). From this statement, Gordy means that one should have joy in one’s reading while taking a book seriously.

The textbook says, “The Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) sought to raise crop prices by lowering production, which the government achieved by paying farmers to leave a certain amount of every acre of land unseeded.” This is important because there was a great demand for crops in European countries during World War II. After the war, the demand for crops plummeted and farmers continued to increase their production of crops in hopes of earning more money, which caused prices to drop 40%. This caused farmers to lose their lands when they could not pay their mortgages and loans. By creating the AAA, the farm prices increased and farmers earned more money.

There is no question that women have struggled over many years to be seen as equals by their male counterparts. Years of struggle and oppression continued throughout time, but the oppression took different forms over the course of history. Susan Glaspell wrote, “Trifles” which explores a woman’s status in society during the 1920s and the political leanings that perverted society at the time. The play demonstrates how women were subjected to mental abuse and viewed as intellectually inferior as dictated by American society and politics. “Trifles” exposes how political leanings in the government favored and enabled a patriarchal society as well as displaying how the Women’s Rights movement was beginning to combat these prejudices.

Living Somewhere in Between Good and evil are present within every person one will encounter in his/her life. Is it better for to just solely focus on the good and live life blissfully ignorant, or to focus on just the bad and live life aware and depressed? Is it easier to focus on the bad in others and ignore its presence in oneself? Nathaniel Hawthorne portrays both of these situations in his stories “Young Goodman Brown” and “The Minister’s Black Veil,” showing the reader that the world is not simply black and white. There is a grey, blended area for one to live in that allows him/her to live peaceful but not ignorant.

Both John Smith and William Bradford were Englishmen who came to America and helped to found the earliest colonies in New England. They came at different times and for different reasons. Both tell of events during these travels in their written accounts, but these accounts show that the two men, as well as their goals, were drastically different. Captain John Smith, considered to be the first American writer, came to America in the spring of 1607. He had many adventures prior to the voyage to New England, and thought quite highly of himself, as is clear in his writings.
