Globalization is related to connectedness and how connected places are to another. For instance if geographers didn’t study globalization, we wouldn’t understand how or why two countries are connected to each other. You could see this concept in the movie “Hotel Rwanda”. When all the “whites” and the people who didn’t live in Rwanda were being transported out of the country, this left all the Tutsis and Hutus to fend for themselves. If Rwanda was more connected and important to the United States, then they would have sent more soldiers to help defend the refugees.
North Korea has been a hereditary dictatorship since 1948 starting with Kim Jong- il (Inside). North Korea is the most obvious “Big Brother” in our world today, because of how its hereditary dictatorship works. The people are brainwashed from the day they're born that all life and everything that they own is thanks to their “Glorious Leader” Kim jong- il. In the documentary “Inside North Korea” Lisa Ling showed us how the north korean people are so brainwashed by their government or as it could also be called “Big Brother” that when they have there cataracts repaired they thank their leader and not the doctor who actually fixed them. This brainwashing leads them to believe that anything and everything that happens to them is because of the great leader.

This is dystopia for the following reasons; they worship their leader as if he were a god, propaganda controls the minds of their people and the government installs fear of the western (outside) world into the minds of the North Korean people. In North Korea their form of government would go under Communist state one-man dictatorship. Kim Jong Ill was proclaimed “eternal president” of the country. After his death his inexperienced son has taken power. Father and son have achieved a God-like status in North Korea.
The were killed in their homes, in the streets, and as familes. All the other foreign countries like the United States did shameful acts like ignoring what was going on in Rwanda. Even Hutu people themselves were killed because they didn’t support the killing campgin. According to the article "Genocide In Rwanda", the civil war only ended when a Tutsi-dominated group, the RPF(Rwanda Patrirotic Front), defeated the Hutu extremist and Paul Kagame took control as president. There are many comparisions between the Jewish and Rwanda genocides.

It will not magically go away, no matter if we keep or do away with legal gun ownership. The problem I see with the gun community and the anti-gun community is each has its own perception of people’s actions. When we see a horrific gun crime unfold before our eyes everyone is left with feelings of remorse, shock and anger, leading the anti-gun community to see all criminals with the scary AR-15 and feeling the need to ban all guns; the gun community on the other hand, fights to preserve their inherent need to maintain the ability to protect themselves with in the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. We have a disconnection that is facilitating feelings of anger and frustration pertaining to both sides of the gun debate precipitated by the gun laws in the State of Arizona. We face a problem of full accountability, many owners purchase weapons without thought of receiving training for or how to secure the weapon.
Instead of admitting to their heinous actions, the three men sought help from their willing ‘brothers’ to bully and persuade black and white people alike into submission and essentially cover-up the whole incident. I understand that in the face of punishment, people will do anything to ‘get away with murder’, but how can so many people feel no remorse in essentially erasing one man’s existence? It is sickening to realize that the KKK could be so effective in brainwashing an entire town. Meanwhile, the African American community likewise gave into emotion and engaged in a poorly thought out and executed plan of retaliation. Instead of fighting for Marrow’s justice and their own rights in a civil manner, the African Americans in Oxford choose to cause more damage by creating chaos and classifying
