Answer preview

Families in the Puerto Rican heritage are organized in the traditional patriarchal roles. The family can either be nuclear or extended, and two families can live in the same household.   However, there is a significant transformation towards egalitarian relationships. The needs of the family supersede those of individual members, and children are raised to have respect for adults. Emphasis is on family care over self-care. The family acts as a source of identity and support for individuals in response to physical and psychological healthcare needs (Przeworski, & Piedra, 2020). The cultural beliefs which are transmitted in the families influence their access to healthcare services. For instance, their emphasis is on curative healthcare and responds less to health promotion and prevention services.

Another factor for the separation of white and black feminists is that whites were outspoken compared to blacks. According to Breines (29), white women were outspoken in that the whites amplified some issues that were considered mainly nonissues by blacks[1]. Over the years, white feminists have focused on sexism in the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), a factor that black women at the time did not consider an issue. White women perceived the role they played in SNCC as worthless since they wanted to do other things apart from typing in the office. Black women were primarily contended in what they did as Breines (35) says that the majority of women in SNCC were uninterested in pursuing gender issues[2]. Culture played a vital role in the way women perceived themselves in SNCC. Whereas black women were raised to be independent-minded and outgoing, whites’ women had not been encouraged to develop their potential.

Free association; Freud developed free association as an important tool in self-understanding.

African Americans were treated badly during the demand for slaves. Historically, African ancestors who immigrated to the United States were the ones who helped build the America we know today, and were later called African Americans. These people worked as slaves in rich white people lands, such as cotton farms. Today, this would be considered as nonhuman like conditions as to that slavery is illegal.

“yet that period is when you see the US go from being a colonial, primarily agricultural economy to being the second biggest industrial power in the world — and well on its way to becoming the largest industrial power in the world.”(Lockhart (2019))

Slavery is one major part that got The United States economy where it’s at today, leading the world. Due to the fact they didn’t have to pay high labor cost such as what’s been happening in China in recent past years.

Answer preview

The enslavement that African Americans underwent has made them vulnerable to racial prejudices. During the slavery period, enslaved African Americans were treated as inferior people. The slavery systems were designed to make the blacks entirely dependent on whites since they were prevented from learning to write and read. At the same time, their behavior and movements were restricted. The slave owners easily had their way sexually with enslaved women. Rebellious slaves were punished, and while slave marriages lacked a legal basis, slaves nevertheless married, and others managed to raise families. After Congress ended the slave trade, slave owners encouraged slave marriages to ensure a constant supply of slaves. The slave masters could sell slaves hence separating families as they wished. Even though slaves started revolts in the 19th century, a few were successful, while the majority were unsuccessful. Supporters of slavery interpreted the slavery revolts organized by African Americans as being barbaric, and this led many states in the South to strengthen the slave codes.

Additionally, Chavez’s advocacy efforts influence a citizen to make strategic choices and embracing behaviors that do not focus on personal gains. Making personal sacrifices should be a step that an engaged citizen should consider achieving the necessary change in society (Oldenquist, 1980). They become good examples to others since the positive outcomes achieved after the advocacy efforts become a motivator factor to more positive engagement in promoting morality in the community.

Like Chavez, ordinary citizens can become extraordinary moral agents of change once they realize that their loyalty to the community is the beginning of being activists of change. However, they need to be courageous to overcome hostility from influential people who do not embrace equality. Kluger et al. (2007) demonstrate that moral dilemmas arise when promoting good, but regardless, irrational thinking should not be an option. Instead, this should motivate ordinary citizens to identify more rational ways of promoting change.

Atomic bombs

In your opinion, what were the main reasons US President Harry Truman decided to use atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945? Do you agree or disagree with his decision? must be 3-4 pages double spaced

Answer preview

Truman portrayed his arrogance in failing to take the adverse effects in the aftermath seriously. As demonstrated in the 1945 Government’s Documents Stimson noted that he raised his concerns about the dangers of the weapon; however, Truman just laughed, saying that he understood (1). This was a morally repugnant deed, which raised questions regarding Truman’s leadership and misguided interests of the nation and international relations.  Moreover, the President knew that Japan did not have military prowess; therefore, excessive force was unjustified. The country had shown signs of surrendering before the 1945 bombing, which was evident in July. According to Blum the American planes could fly to Japan without experiencing barriers (2). Therefore, the lack of domestic consideration and good international relations was alarming in Truman’s actions, yet other measures such as having peace negotiations would have been implemented.

Controversial Social Problems

1. According to Sternheimer, in what ways has sex been a controversial issue in American popular culture for nearly 100 years? When did politicians first begin calling for government censorship of Hollywood, and for what reasons, including those having nothing to do with sex? Do you believe that Hollywood films still represent sexuality in distorted ways, especially when compared to films from other countries? How so?

2. Discuss the recent controversy over teen “sexting.” What are some of the key underlying fears, and what actual evidence supports or undermines these concerns? How does present teen sexual activity compare to decades past, and what demographic patterns seem to exist?

3. What arguments are presented linking popular culture to obesity, particularly advertising and television, and why does Sternheimer find this connections more complicated than they appear? What other socioeconomic factors may play a greater role?

4. What are some of the possible links between the fashion industry and eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia? What other factors does the author propose as greater indicators in girls’ lives? In your own experience, to what degree do you believe media and popular culture influence our perceptions of our bodies and beauty as a whole? Do you think that advertisers and the fashion industry bear a responsibility to promote a greater diversity of each?

Answer preview

The controversy on teen sexting has arisen because of the fear that teens are nowadays exposed to sexual content early in life. Televisions and movies are some of the media that are blamed for the sexual content that is responsible for the perceived increase in sexual activities among teenagers. Adults nowadays believe that teens are maturing faster, unlike in the past, and they are becoming sexually active before joining high school. According to Sternheimer (2013), while adults perceive teenagers are sexually maturing faster, teenagers involved in sexual activities has been decreasing over the past decades. Presently, popular culture has made sex a fashionable thing, and it is being blamed for early sexual maturity. Television programs are also accused of fueling early sexual maturity among teenagers because the shows have sexual content. However, the majority of these concerns by adults are unfounded, as many studies reject the assumptions made on the factors that catalyze early sexual maturity. In one survey that targeted teens

Julie Oliver has an extensive resume, which includes over a decade of experience working in health care finance at a hospital in Austin, Texas (Ruiz-Grossman, 2018). Unlike her opponent, Oliver came from a modest background, raised by a single mother in a town called Ovilla, just on Dallas’s outskirts. She readily owns up to her struggles and negative experiences, often indicating on her campaign adverts that she once ran away from home, a stint that resulted in her getting pregnant. Oliver feels that many voters will relate more with her, considering the share similar struggles and challenges. She managed to overcome the difficulties of her modest upbringing to attain a law degree from the University of Texas, which later propelled her to become a health care finance professional (Ruiz-Grossman, 2018). She hopes the experience she garnered from working in the health care sector makes her well placed to address Texas’s 25th

Part Two: Response on Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense”

Hi classmate, your post on Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” is very informative. I am now aware that the document intended to encourage Americans to fight for their release from Britain’s authoritarian rule. Additionally, “Common Sense” argues the importance of Americans creating a democracy. Moreover, you have accurately indicated that Thomas Paine’s writing helped convince American colonists that they deserved to self-govern in 1776. Furthermore, you have shared several direct quotations from the reading that solidly support your argument, besides providing a reader with the first-hand experience on the essentiality of Paine’s call for independence writing. Therefore, your analysis is very in-depth and provides vital facts that advance the urgent need for “Common Sense” during the colonial era. I read the document you shared as reference and noted that Paine uses convincing words to incite Americans. For instance, he refers to the British government as a punisher and necessary evil (Tom Paine, line 5 Common Sense).

Explain why Collective Security forum arrangements are a better way to manage world affairs and support your argument with source-cited historical facts.

Right now, I would say the American foreign policy is more into the balance of power than collective security because President Trump is focusing more on strengthening its local trade and borders. However, if I am to advise the United States president on the best foreign policy approach, I would recommend the collective security approach. It is because a nation stands a better chance to overcome its enemies if it has the support of other countries. Also, when nations agree to work together, international trade becomes easy because the nations can decide to set trade standards together. Moreover, in times like now, when every nation is fighting with COVID-19, collective security approach would help nations to combine efforts and overcome this pandemic.

The Gift of Magi

 

Write a 4 paragraph essay explaining how irony helps develop the theme of “The Story of an Hour” “The Necklace” and “The Gift of Magi“. Make sure to use two or more examples of from memory (NO QUOTES) from each story and at least two sentences of commentary for each example.

“The necklace” is by Guy De Maupassant

“The story of an hour” is by Kate Chopin

“The gift of magi” is by O.Henry

Also you can use situational, dramatic, cosmic irony. And the theme has to be a full statement.

Answer preview

In “The Gift of the Magi,” Henry paints a young couple Della and Jim, who are poor. Della cuts her most prized possession, long hair, and sells it for money to buy her husband a Christmas gift. Both characters valued each other. The situational Irony revealed when Jim comes home to find out that she cut her hair. He realizes the Irony first because he had bought her expensive combs for her hair as a Christmas gift. Della had been longing for the combs, but now that she had them, she didn’t have her long hair. Another ironic plot twist occurs when Jim discovers that Della had sacrificed her hair to buy him a chain for his pocket watch. The story reaches a crescendo when Jim uncovers that he sold his watch to buy Della the expensive combs. The Irony in this story depicts the great sacrifices both characters made for each other. Their love for each other makes each one of them give up what they hold dearest. The author calls them magi because of their selflessness. (Henry, 1958)
