Though being serious topic you wouldn’t think that satire would create a standing argument but Fridman proves us wrong by making his point and opinion pop right out of the passage. This helps support the writing by attracting more readers though his unrealistic writing for the subject. Fridman connects to his readers through pathos, as many can relate this passage to their unpopular but successful experience in high school or even middle school. This association between the readers and the writing generates more feedback and interest of his work. As he says, “it is a high time to face the persecutors who haunt the bright kid with thick glasses from kindergarten to the grave.” The bullying, the teasing, and the harassing for their abilities and their “disgusting taste” must be stopped, as stated in his writing.
Rarely was that world projected as full of anger at racism, struggles for justice, or revolutions of the body and spirit. It's better to be cute than political, individual than collective-minded, and you should pray to be compared with Like Water for Chocolate. Now come the new books by Julia Alvarez and Demetria Martinez, both with radical themes that include criticism of U.S. policy and Anglo values. They have had flattering reviews, but profound political or social questions raised in each book go ignored: most critics seem happier with the romancing. Julia Alvarez's book is a fictionalized biography that moves its characters forward in the shadow of impending doom, yet never victimizes, never negates human complexity.
Power Essay Due to the ignorance of modern cultures, indigenous tribes are disappearing faster than society can learn from them. It is shown in Power that even though western ways and ideas aren't similar to those of other cultures, it doesn't make indigenous people any less important. Ama and Omishto, two main characters, display this in the novel with the many ways they are influenced and interact with modern, western culture. Overall, through the use of myths and stories, Linda Hogan reveals the slow diminishment of the indigenous culture due to western civilization. There are many times that even the simple belief in myths and stories explain this idea and support what Hogan is showing about this issue.
“Repaired and Modern” The author of the article “Broken and Obsolete,” Fareed Zakaria, believes that due to the divide in the beliefs of Republicans and Democrats coupled with the poor immigration laws currently in the US, the present immigration status will remain as it is, as he states “broken.” The author gives a few reasons for this belief coupled with examples, like the idea that other countries have been transforming themselves into immigrant societies, adopting many of America's best ideas and even improving on them, and as a result the U.S. is not as exceptional as it once was, and its immigration advantage is lessening. However, overall his claims are wrong because the supporting evidence behind the comparisons that he makes are

Over the years though, the revulsion dies away everywhere and people show love for one another. I believe that, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, should be taught in school. Many people are against Mark Twain’s famous book. People say that the use of the N-word offends them and that it makes them feel inferior to others.

The short stories “That Room” by Tobias Wolff and “Battle Royal” by Ralph Ellison, are ideal samples that demonstrate that humans don’t have as much control as they would like to think. When the protagonist of both the stories take action to improve their way of life, the only thing they are both able to find is the realization that even though it is their life, they do not have much control over it. The difference between them is that one discovers this is because of his race and the other one because of his choice of work. The narrator in the story “That Room” decided to make a change in his life right after his first year of high-school. He started hitchhiking up to farms and down the valley trying to find some day work to make some money so that he could gain independence from his parents and take control of his life.
