    George R. R. Martin’s short story about zombies does not focus on the zombie apocalypse as so many stories and movies do in today’s popular zombie culture. In what can only be assumed to be a far distant future, Martin’s zombies are surgically altered humans whose brains have been replaced by a synthetic alternative. This turns these formerly alive humans into form of cheap, or slave, labor that is exploited on planets where most humans are either unwilling, or unable to work (Martin, 2008). Martin’s zombies in this story harken back to the origins of the modern zombie mythos. Those being derived from the African slaves who toiled on the sugar plantations of Hatti (Estes, 2012). I do not think it is any coincidence that Martin’s zombies are…

    The story told in Slaughterhouse Five is very much unique to its setting and the time in which it occurs. The story is told by Kurt Vonnegut, who is also a minor character in the book, about the life experiences of Billy Pilgrim during World War II. The story centers on a specific event that occurs during the war, the Allied firebombing of Dresden, Germany. This specific bombing has gone virtually unnoticed by Americans throughout history since the war due to its location, being in Germany. However, certainly the scrutiny would be much greater if such a horrendous bombing was inflicted upon Britain, America, or another Allied power. In addition, the story itself would not have been told if it were not for Vonnegut’s own unique situation…

    In Michael Harrington’s The Other America, he describes how the evolution of the American welfare transformed the aspect of the federal government. Furthermore, Harrington lays and points out that poverty is an issue being hidden and disguised. In the mid 1960s, President Johnson with the assistance of an evolving U.S economy were able to gain new laws on health,education, poverty, and housing. Recent and larger programs of the Great Society were nonetheless amongst the uttermost critical and significant adjustments in the American government.

    Tom Waldron's The Wire

    • 797 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The TV series “The Wire” is a production that has been criticized for the violent language of its characters and scenes. Nevertheless, I personally like the way its producer portraits the life of one neighborhood in Baltimore, filled with crime, corruption, and a deficit of education. Between all the visible downside aspects found here, one that definitely pops out is the vicious cycle of crime. How the young follow the path of the older repeatedly because there is no other option. The so-called system that manipulates everything, the school, the shelters, the police officers makes it difficult to find an exit, an escape to a different life. Throughout the story, we see how this system obligates the characters to change their lives to be able…

    • 5 Pages

    In his novel, The Divide: American Injustice in the Age of the Wealth Gap, Matt Taibbi juxtaposes the wealthy and the poor in order to illustrate the disparity between the treatment of high-class criminals and lower-class citizens. The novel also notes the growth of the inequality and the schism between the classes. He uses illuminating narratives from both of the classes to demonstrate the huge difference between the rich and the poor in terms of how they are treated by the American justice system. Taibbi’s book opened my eyes to the extent of this injustice and from that I have learned a great deal, most which I can apply to my position as a Resident Advisor.…

    There is no way that xenophobia does not exist in the contemporary world, you can see it in political campaigns and when an epidemic threatens western civilization. However, The Walking Dead is not an example of xenophobia. The graphic novel The Walking Dead shows a civilization trying to come back after a zombie apocalypse, in which they are living in complete survival mode and never know what is coming for them next. Some people believe that The Walking Dead only has to do with humanity's deepest roots of xenophobia, in which survivors only work together due to having a common enemy, but as a matter of fact, it is really about people over coming their differences to reach the common goal of survival.…

A significant critical and commercial success, Dead Poets Society is a period piece set in the 1950s in Welton College, a private boys school, at the heart of New England’s establishment.
