The case of Hae Min Lee was originally only prominent within Baltimore County of Maryland. It has the trappings of a typical high school murder; a teen is angry at their ex-boyfriend/girlfriend for breaking up with them and as a result, would murder them. However, the case has gained international attention largely due to the investigations from Serial, which revealed an abnormal number of inconsistencies within the case against Adnan Syed. Eventually, this attention culminated into the granting of a new trial for Adnan. Adnan is most likely guilty because of circumstantial evidence that demonstrate Adnan’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. After all, the use of circumstantial evidence is valid if a reasonable argument can be created. Although,

Shi Huangdi was the first emperor of China and can be considered on the best rulers of China or even more so of all time. Shi Huangdi united all of China, he took all of the conflicts in the warring states of China and resolved those conflicts and put them under one rule.

Throughout the history, immigration and the United States are inextricably linked. The United States has promulgated many immigration legislations in the past either to restrict or support the immigration. Immigration is still going on and it is a debatable issue even today. In the interview, Chang-rae Lee says, “I’m interested in people who find themselves in places, either of their choosing or not, and who are forced to decide how best to live there. That feeling of both citizenship and exile, of always being an expatriate-with all the attendant problems and complications and delight”(Garner 2). Chang-rae Lee exposes the inner and outer conflicts the immigrants go through in the United States with

One of the most important characteristics of a survivor is patience. Whenever Hyeonseo Lee was attempting to help her family escape from North Korea, she said “I did everything to get my family to freedom, and we came so close, but my family was thrown in jail. . . I went back and forth between the immigration office and the police station, desperately trying to get my family out. . . I didn’t have enough money to bribe or fine anymore. I lost all hope.” (Hyeonseo Lee, Ted Talks). Hyeonseo Lee had the patience to wait for things to get better, and if she wasn’t patient and had given up on her family they most likely wouldn’t have been successful with their escape. Lee continuously went back and forth between places that were holding her family to try to get them out, and she never gave up for
