With the lack of soldiers, it would be easier to invade Rome, which could’ve led to the decline of the Empire. This proves that internal decay was one of the major causes for the end of Rome. Document 6 shows the invasions of Barbarians in 476 on the Roman Empire. This demonstrates that the government and military were becoming weaker to the point where they weren’t strong enough to protect the empire from invasions. The government could not control all these invasions, so this was another component that helped the fall of the Roman Empire.
Beatty tells Montag that with “a bigger market there is less controversy” however some of the authors were full of “evil thoughts” and they created and wrote content and compositions that were derogatory to many ethnicities and religions which caused dispute and arguments among many minorities. So the books stopped selling and books were banned- they “were dishwater”- so censoring books and tv programs was to ensure equality among people. By eliminating information and keeping people docile and passive with meaningless

The large number of abortions is one problem that caused from Chinese history. After the long time of revolution,
Something that surprised me is that both of Gawande’s article connect. For example, in “Slow Ideas” he writes that a simple solution of sugar, salt, and water could eliminate cholera in Dhaka, but the solution wasn’t popular, many didn’t use it and people still died. Then, in “Big Med” Gawande writes that doctors know a solution for migraines, but doctors don’t use it or tell their patients about it. Here are ideas that could help people have a better living yet they are slow in being
The fact that thieves or murderers are not caused by meth. There are traits of the person prior to the use of meth. The only change in a person who uses meth is in their control of anger and humor. This is due to the lack of sufficient endorphins needed to allow a normal medium. As I started to look on line and in articles for my essay, I tock a second and than thought to my self why not go and ask society what they thought about the use and the damage it has on there loved one’s.
Walker was a free black man living in Boston who had a unique view of slavery. He felt so deeply about this subject that he seemed to almost promote violence. He thought that slaves should do anything in their power, even kill, to stop the establishment of slavery. Walker accused the nation of not living up to the ideals of the Declaration of Independence. He was particularly not very fond of Thomas Jefferson, who he thought to be a racist.
Furthermore the tone creates an authentic voice which helps illustrate to the audience the African Americans anger and frustration towards the concept and from being racially prejudiced against in general. Likewise to the Aboriginals, regardless of their personal characteristic and personality, the African American would be labelled as an uneducated, unhygienic and less important to the whites due to ethnocentrism. This explicitly shows the effects of a social hierarchy, since the African Americans are at the bottom of the hierarchy, they’re treated as a race of no importance and value, which further highlights the racial prejudice that the African Americans suffer from. Alan Parker has utilized his text, Mississippi
Justice Racism has been one of the worst problems black people have endured since they came in touch with the white race. Racism is a belief that one's own race is superior and has the power to rule others. In Martin Luther King's writing “Letter From Birmingham Jail”, he answers the criticism given by his fellow clergyman that judged his actions as “unwise and untimely” (King5). King makes the reader understand that black people are tired of being treated as outcasts and as an inferior race thus, reassures the clergyman that black people's inalienable rights are being ignored. However, King proves to the clergyman, in his writing, that black people deserve equal rights by appealing to the reader's emotions, appealing to logic and
During research on reconstructive memory, Barlett found evidence that our long-term memories are not permanent, but are constantly changed and adjusted with experience. In Bartlett’s study, he recorded the detail of a reproduced Native American folk tale called “War of the Ghosts”. Participants heard the story and reproduced it after a short time and then repeatedly over a period of months or years (serial reproduction). The participants remembered the main idea of the story but they changed unfamiliar elements to make sense of the story by using terms more familiar to their cultural expectations. The story remained a coherent whole although it was changed.
But they were black.". By constantly trying to live off of hustling, Malcolm saw just how bad the situation was for his fellow African Americans. He experienced it first hand, how people can act like animals or savages, trying to take advantage of whatever they can take advantage for legally or illegally, and how people can resort to these acts due to the lack of opportunities that they should have. But Malcolm would not realize the importance of this part of his life until later
