It was a very important part of The Prophets life that purified his family by Allah as is stated in the Quran. Hazleton put these stories in a way that you could picture in your head easily. When telling the Hadith of the Pen and Paper, it’s almost as if you were there beside the Prophet Muhammad’s
The Nation of Islam advocated black nationalism and racial separatism and condemned Americans of European descent as immoral "devils." Muhammad's teachings had a strong effect on Malcolm, who entered into an intense program of self-education and took the last name "X" to symbolize his stolen African identity. After six years, Malcolm was released from prison and became a loyal and effective minister of the Nation of Islam in Harlem, New York. In contrast with civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X advocated self-defense and the liberation of African Americans "by any means necessary." A fiery orator, Malcolm was admired by the African American community in New York and around the country.

As the reader begins to see the unfairness of the actions against black people, mostly because of Atticus’ speech, the theme of discrimination is developed through the motive of ‘walking around in their shoes.’ The title, To Kill A Mockingbird is very symbolic and meaningful. The quote which corresponds with the title is also said by Atticus and is, ‘Shoot all the blue jays you want if you can’t hit ‘em, but it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.’ There are two characters in the text which are metaphorical to the mockingbird. One is the obvious one, Tom Robinson, a black man accused of the rape of a white girl, whom Atticus defends, and the other is Boo Radley. Just like a mockingbird, Tom Robinson only did good and in the end was accused of a crime he didn’t commit. He helped Mayella Ewell every time she asked, for free, and for it he was accused of raping her.

The Epistle of Paul to Philemon was a personal letter written in the spirit of forgiveness and redemption. The author of the letter was the Apostle Paul who was under house arrest in Caesarea (Acts 24-26) or Rome (Acts 28, 30). The date of this Epistle was somewhere between 60-63 CE. Paul wrote the letter not only to Philemon, but also his wife, Apphia, his son, Archippus, and the church in their house (Philem.
05/03/2012 Black Men and Public Space In his essay “Black Men and Public Space”, Brent Staples attempts to use some strategies which have really captured my mind. He starts by telling us of how her first encounter with a white woman was, even if Staples does not tell us of his race this is clear evidence that racial prejudice played a role. Based on his race (Staples 404) he ironically demonstrates he wants their guilty to stay with them thus excluding him from the white. Staples says “my first victim’’ (197), was walking down the street but she was not comfortable with the surrounding just because he saw a black man, she soon began running down the street with an intention that she will be robbed but in the real sense Staples was taking a walk just as she was. Definitely this woman figured out that if a black man walked in that neighborhood he was mostly likely up to something.
AGING 1 The Aging Connection AGING 2 After watching all four videos I found two of particular interest. I am a forty eight year old African-American women.
