    The Sunflower By Simon Wiesenthal Quotes

    Being raised in a Roman Catholic household, I can tell you when it comes to forgiveness I was taught to do the Christian thing. As hard is it might be, I should find it in my heart to forgive those who have hurt me, whether they ask for forgiveness or not. What I had never pondered is the chance that someone might ask me forgiveness for something wrong they have done to someone else. Do I have the right to put them at ease or offer forgiveness? In the book The Sunflower, Simon Wiesenthal, a man who had watched countless of innocent Jews like himself be murdered because of sheer hate, shares his unique story. One that has made me think about the way I view, and use forgiveness.…

    Fahrenheit 451 Happiness Quotes

    “Are you happy?” This quote was deeply focused on in the book Fahrenheit 451. When Guy Montag was asked this by Clarisse, his world changed. Isn’t it ironic how, “Are you happy?”, can make a person so unhappy? Here’s another question to ponder about. What is happiness? Is there a true definition of a happy person? Based on Fahrenheit 451, happiness can be represented by 3 things: materialistic objects, current situations, and happiness over hardship.…

    Woodstock Research Paper

    Every memory of the summer of 1969 is connected to, in one way or another, the historical event, Woodstock. The festival could not have left more of an impact on the “hippie” generation anymore than it did those three days of music and peace. The generation of the time wanted nothing more than what they got out of Woodstock. Today, people still look back on the festival and think of how well it made history without the expectance of doing so. Woodstock, one of the most important cultural events of the 20th century, combined iconic musical acts with interesting social behavior.…

    1967 Detroit Riots

    For my 2016 history paper I decided to write about the catastrophic events of the 1967 Detroit Riots. Taking place in the blistering July, where it was very unlikely to have an air conditioner, after police raided a blind pig on the infamous 12th Street. That Small act gradually generated the largest riot in American history. After the raid, a crowd of about 200 gathered around the bar. People were spreading rumors about the police using excessive force, later resulting in an empty bottle being thrown at a rear window of a police car. All of this then escalated into the event we all know today; the Detroit Riots.…

    The Baltimore Riots

    On April 27, 2015 in Baltimore, Maryland, riots erupted. It all started when Freddie Gray was arrested on April 12, 2015, and was severely injured in police custody. Gray later died of the injuries. This was the latest case of police brutality in a long string of incidents. Tensions boiled over after about a week of peaceful protest, and protesters turned to violent actions. Joined by gangs and others seeking to take part in violence, stores were looted, rocks were thrown at police, and property was vandalized by the mob. As the police were not able to control the violent mob, anarchy ensued.…

    Voting Rights Dbq

    As I sit down and analyze the events that had significance in the time period that was covered in our class, I continue to be amazed at the authorization of The Voting Rights Act in 1965. Its substance not only had such a tremendous impact on many citizens during that time, but it has continued to be a critical component in our government still till this day. For almost fifty years it has been amended and restructured to improve voting rights. The years after the Voting Rights Act has caused a lot of debate and much development to citizens voting rights in America, but many people don’t know what ultimately led to our country achieving this great…
