Mary Fisher made a speech about HIV and AIDS because she wants to raise awareness so she can help everyone to know about it.

He told us how terrible his life was. White people thought that black people were not worth it or that they don’t belong here (the place where they are) so they threaten them badly. They were discriminating black people and that is totally wrong. All people should accept each other on who they are like religions, race, how they looks like, how people dressed and people should not make fun of

    Ken who was diagnosed with AIDS and gave it to several women including Barbie who died from the disease should be convicted of a homicide. Ken knew he had the disease and initially having unprotected sex with women he wanted to spread the deadly disease so he should be punished for it. There was a case in Georgia where a man was charged with two counts of HIV-reckless conduct because he didn’t inform his partners that he had HIV. Reckless HIV is a felony under Georgia law and punishable by up to 10 years in prison (WSBTV). I think when people are diagnosed with the disease that they go into a depression and stop caring and start infecting people to make them feel better about themselves. They know they are going to die so they don’t care they give it too and I think they celebrate when they find victims to spread it to. That’s like a serial killer who stalks his victims and goes on a killing spree, and people who have AIDS or HIV and spread it to other people are going the same things as a serial killer because they are killing their victims in the long run. AIDS is a disease that can’t be cured and if a person knows he/she has it and spreads it to others they should get the same convictions as murderers.…

    I chose this word because the tone of the first chapter seems rather dark. We hear stories of the hopes with which the Puritans arrived in the new world; however, these hopes quickly turned dark because the Puritans found that the first buildings they needed to create were a prison, which alludes to the sins they committed; and a cemetery, which contradicts the new life they hoped to create for themselves.…

    I never knew who Mary Tyler Moore was until she died this past January. As the world continued to grieve over Moore and other such celebrities who tragically passed away in the last twelve months, I found myself surreptitiously Googling her to get some context for all the accolades people gave in memoriam. I had never heard of her solo show, or how groundbreaking it was for feminism, but when my Entertainment Weekly magazine came in the mail, I got a further glimpse into television history. As Dan Snierson observes in his article “Mary Tyler Moore, 1936 – 2017”, that beyond any other role Moore played, “it was her seven-season turn (1970 – 1977) as spunky TV producer Mary Richards on CBS’ The Mary Tyler Moore Show that Moore burned brightest,…

    Mary addressed her argument by appealing to the audience that despite any belief or denial they have about AIDS is the truth is that anyone can contract HIV/AIDS. She spoke with a very un-emotional voice but used fear, and rightfully so, as the premise of her argument. She proved her claim by presenting statistics at the beginning of her speech stating 200,000 Americans have died of AIDS up to 1992. She showed the opposition of her claim by presenting the various stereotypes that medicine, society, and the media have placed on AIDS and HIV. (Fisher, 1992).…

    Beginning in the seventeen hundreds, America depended on slaves for free labor in order to make a considerable profit. These slaves were not treated as normal people though; they were sold into a life of no rights, cruel punishment, and rigorous work schedules. In his autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, freed slave Fredrick Douglass shares his personal accounts with slavery in order to reveal the harsh truth slavery hides to the public. The most successful strategy slaveholders used to maintain control of slaves was ignorance. Slaves were completely oblivious to the basic rights and privileges any person should have. Douglass uses a vivid yet detached tone to describe his disgust for the way slaves were treated through ethical appeals, emotionally grabbing anecdotes, and logic.…

    In Douglass’s Narrative of The Life of Frederick Douglass an American Slave and Ali’s Infidel both authors adopt comparable rhetorical strategies due to their similar experiences with oppression. In the Narrative of The Life of Frederick Douglass an American Slave, Douglass recounts his life as a slave and journey to freedom. Douglass’s upbringing as a second-class citizen in antebellum Maryland mirrors Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s experience as a woman in the traditional Muslim world. As both authors transition from their former oppressive environments to freedom, they both depict their experience using similar strategies. Douglass’s and Ali’s first view of New Bedford and Germany initiate the deinternalization of their oppressions enabling them to view…
