Also it is very one sided as most protesters weren't like that the put themselves across has been clean and passionate about what they are protesting for show that people believe them. For example the last person in the cartoon is port across as being stupid because there is no point trying to sort out the war when America and Vietnam didn't. Another thing it has a tone which means it can't be objective as it is humorous and biased. Representation 3 is comprehensive because it is from a text book, this means that it would have to be comprehensive so that it could teach people or expand people's knowledge about it. I know that it is reliable because is also gives facts and figures.
Also the fact that this book was written post 9/11 places a huge spotlight on Ray Singh, this makes the reader think that Ray Singh is used as a Symbol of all the immigrants and travellers in America. This highlights Ray as an outsider because it shows how he is trying to fit in, and if you are trying to fit into something, then you are clearly not a part of it. Sebold does this to demonstrate to the reader the feelings Ray has about his foreign roots and how he is trying to do something about them. However he is fighting a losing battle because he cannot change the colour of his skin. This makes Ray resent the majority of his school associates but out of respect and because he is a well-mannered, nice boy Ray puts these feelings of resentment to one side and doesn't make an issue of them.
An example of this is when he informs the President that Arab and Muslim countries are also against them along with 28 countries providing military support against Iraq. This makes the audience realize that perhaps Iraq is the culprit as majority of the countries and religious groups are against it. Yet, the letter does not present with the cause of this unity, this agreement, regardless of how many agree to the
I was arguing with people I didn't even know saying, that it wasn't the author's problem if people got offended. I felt it was Belknap's writing and he could do whatever he wanted. But they weren't having any of it. They kept bringing up that the writing was offensive to a lot of people because it insulted religion. The same thing happened in my lunch period.
In Salinger's novel, The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caufield makes it very clear that he does not like fake or phony people. Throughout the story Holden at times makes the reader feel like he or she should feel bad for him because of the hardships he's been through and how he has to deal with the "phonies" when he is actually one himself. As the story goes on Holden proves himself to be the real phony of the book because he never goes through with what he intends to do, he is overly concerned about sex but thinks its overrated, and he's very critical about other peoples lives. Holden Caulfield is the true phony and even more so a huge hypocrite throughout the novel. To start, All he wants to do is connect with someone but the boy has high standards.
The author wrote this novel in a satirical tone that is present throughout the entire book and “Twain Knew well what he was doing” (Powell). Huck Finn appears to, on a very basic level, attack religion and African Americans heavily but in actuality the author uses a great amount of satire to fight for the rights of blacks and he is in no way attacking any religion. Religion seems to be a constant target for criticism in the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Those who are religious are often seen as too trusting, and many of them are manipulated because of that. It is apparent that Twain pits religion against racism and in the book Huck feels like he has to give up all religion in order to save his new found friend, Jim.
He realized that over there in the motherland how real Muslims were, and soon came to the realization that Elijah Muhammad wasn’t correct in his morals and teachings of the Islam nation. When he returned he began speaking out on the TRUE Muslim ways and what they really believe. He realized that in fact the white man wasn’t the devil and that he was just brainwashed up until this point. Elijah Muhammad excommunicated Malcolm X from the nation of Islam. Malcolm started his own nation called the Muslim Mosque Inc. Malcolm X was a great man because he stood up for what he believed as well as black people in general.
Lemon continues by saying that “building a mosque at Park 51 is an extraordinary circumstance” and this is a very heated issue because many people lost their loved ones on 9/11. Patel mentioned that Muslim Americans were also amongst those who lost their loved ones but many Americans only seem to forget this and focus on the other religions victims. Incorporating what Lemon has said, it seem like he doesn’t want the mosque to be built next to ground zero because Muslim were apart of the 9/11 attack. Just because a small group of Muslims blew up the twin towers doesn’t mean that all Muslims are evil and heartless and they should be punished by refusal of constructing a mosque near ground
As a child, it opened my eyes. I saw the world for what it really was: callous and brutal. As I grew older, I grew more cautious. When it was discovered that al-Qaeda was behind the inexorable acts of terrorism, I unfairly discriminated against Muslims, automatically associating them with terrorism. This, to me, surprises me considering I have Islamic cousins (I definitely have no negative feelings towards anybody because of their race or religion now).
Here lies Tolerance (July 4, 1776-September 11, 2001)… Ever since the attacks on our nation, America has been on a downward spiral of predictable fear and hate. The problem with America today is the fact that, although we were a nation built upon religious tolerance, its people do not express this acceptance simply through ignorance; and people fear what they don’t understand. If we are to stop this decent into madness, we must stop and learn about each other. America is not unlike an average teenager in present society. Although parents would like to shelter their children from the evils of the world (which is unlikely to happen), terrible experiences often manage to find their way through the cracks and into the hearts and minds of our
