Pricks And Chimcks A Plea For Woman Analysis

Tim Arango, reporter for The New York Times, wrote a very informative piece entitled, Disappointed with Europe, thousands of Iraqi migrants return home. The article address the issue of migrants from of the Middle East, after having risk their lives, in search of a safe heaven and greater opportunities that was perceived to be found in Europe, Arango refers to it as, ‘the great migrant wave’. To add further detail, the article introduced two men, Mr. Jabiry, 23 and Abdulatif, 48, from Iraq who give a 1st hand account of their experience in a foreign country. Both men where under the impression that Europe would be their promise land but quickly realize life in Europe

The article by Meetoo and Miraz define extreme forms of domestic violence, which often lead to the death of a woman at the hands of her loved ones or community. Interestingly, "honour" only arises as a motivation for murder when religion or ethnic communities are involved. In the article, the author asserts that ethicized women (women of colour and other minorities) who are victims of honour killings are unrecognized in both multicultural discussion and domestic violence discussion. Since 9/11, these women have become much more visible, but unfortunately this increased recognition is due to a heightened sense of fear and danger associated with the idea of a "Muslim alien 'other'". By employing an approach focused more on human rights, people

As the wars in the Middle East continue to rage on, the European Union is beginning to face an immigrant problem. The article “Austria Finds Up to 50 Bodies Thought to Be of Migrants in a Truck” by Alison Smale from the New York Times discusses the death of 50 supposed migrants left to die by human traffickers in a truck parked on the shoulder of a highway. This event directly coincides with a conference about this immigration problem and reopens a conversation about migrants safety coming from the Middle East and the effects wars in the Middle East are having on a global scale.

The western world was brought to its knees by a three year old. The three year old boy, Alan Kurdi, body was found washed up on the shores of Syria, after the refugee ship he was on with his parents capsized. A beach should be a fun place, filled with toddlers splashing in the water, not where the bodies of innocent children wash up to. An image taken showing a paramilitary police officer carrying little Alan Kurdi’s body off the beach hit the news and social media by storm. Canadians were horrified about the situation in Syria and demanded their government to take action. Half of those million refugees’ where teens and children. With an estimated over two thousand and five hundred people have drowned this summer, as more that 300 000 Syrians

Earlier this week The New York Times issued an account in their Sunday paper discussing the critical topic in regards to America accepting Refugees from the Middle East. The Times honed in on this topic in the column “ U.S Will Accept More Refugees as Crisis Grows”, written by Michael R. Gordon, Alison Smale, and Rick Lyman. The feature begins to discuss the problems that are being raised in the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands of men, women, and families in countries like Syria, Iraq, Somalia, and Bhutan are in danger due to the fact that their countries are facing war. This leads to the people of these countries being forced to leave in order to escape the war and oppression. These people are called Refugees. The problem cultivates as wealthier neighboring countries become reluctant in helping these refugees because of their anti-refuge politics. Refugees are then forced to travel as far away as they can, paying until they can no longer go any further. They are then forced into labor, later leading them to escape in an unsafe and deathly manner across the Mediterranean sea to Europe. This being the cause of the many deaths of men, women, and children across the Middle East as they had hopes of a better life elsewhere.The Washington Post also reflects on this subject in their column, “Refugees in America: Syrian family rebuilds life in the U.S” by Deepti Hajela. Hajela interviews a Syrian family, the Roustom. The father Hassan Al Roustom exclaims,

For example, a major issue, and humanitarian crisis is the Syrian Refugee Crisis. This partly arose as their government was concerned with spending a disproportionate amount on military and public-sector wages while they disregarding the economically disadvantage in a war-torn environment. Consequently, over 4.7 million people are seeking safety and fleeing from violence. Many of these individuals are seeking ways of immigrations as they have been displaced (2016). Moreover, this illustrates a vulnerable situation where individuals may turn to illegals methods of immigrations including, but limited to, smuggling. To further illustrate this point, the now infamous picture of a young boy who was deceased on a beach illustrates the negative implication that can transpire when individuals feel that hiring a smuggler is their best course of

raigs article "Men's Men and Women's Women" and Murphy's "How Advertising Practitioners View Ethics: Moral Muteness, Moral Myopia, and Moral Imagination" both speak at length regarding the bussiness of advertising. Both articles explore the inner workings of the bussiness and help readers try to understand the advertisors objectives in their work. However, these articles take separate tones when it comes to the ethics of the world of advertsing.

The TV sitcoms of Scrubs, Friends, and Love all evolve around single young adults. By comparing the three, one can come to understand how love is shown through TV in the United States. Throughout the episodes, it becomes apparent on why the couples are together. In Scrubs, it is easy to see that Carla and Turk make each other happy.

What happens when an individual’s freedom to make life choices conflicts with the lives of others in society? While anti-vaxxers have questioned the safety, effectiveness and necessity of vaccinations since the 19th Century, the anti-vaxxer movement has become more prevalent in the 21st Century. This was clearly depicted in the Law and Order SVU episode, selfish. In this essay, I will argue that the defendant’s (i.e., Monica’s) choice not to vaccinate her child was morally impermissible at the time. In doing so, I will integrate this week’s readings into the discussion and comment on how my response to the moral impermissibility of Monica’s act, informs my view about mandatory vaccination laws and the legal consequences for non-compliant individuals.

Working at a job full-time serving tables while enrolled in school with a full load is difficult enough, but when students decide their scholastic achievements lack the certain luster that may provide a means to support themselves and their family, it becomes useful to try one’s hand in the athletic dogma that is college sports. According to Show Them The Money, written by Donald H. Yee, his most important statement is, “we all know that the sole focus for many star college players is getting ready for pro ball, that coaches are looking for financial security on the backs of teenagers and that boosters enjoy the ego stroke that comes with virtually owning a piece of the team. There isn’t anything inherently wrong about these goals, but there

On September of 2015, the image of 3-year-old Aylan Kurdi went viral. “The toddler’s lifeless body on a Turkish beach had reverberated across the globe” (Parkinson & George-Cosh, 2015). Aylan’s family had “fled the brutal civil war in their native Syria and only attempted the boat crossing after Canada denied their application of admission as refugees. The image led to an astonishing outpouring of support for Syrian refugees” (Hein & Niazi, 2016).

Guilt that derives from the fact our country is not doing more to aide in the refugee crisis. Likewise, this article provokes me to ask the question: why are these images not shown more often in western media? I feel that currently our media is cluttered with useless information regarding inherently trivial stories, none of which compare to the struggles of not only children, but also millions of people. The refugee problem is currently one that I feel is ignored by many for various reasons. However, this article brings to light the horrors that are currently occurring and I feel it should be seen by more people, as the lives of refugees are no less than our own. Even though politicians make out refugees, and even immigrants, to be murderous extremists, the reality is most are nonviolent, normal families seeking a home, something often taken for granted by those in western cultures. The Syrian refugee crisis is, in my opinion, the most overlooked problem in recent history, and demonstrates in inherent issue in our society- we as a culture view these lives as less than our own. Overall, I feel this article does a thorough job of emotionally evoking readers and impacting their views on Syrian refugees and the lives they are forced to

The United States is continuing to play a cautious role in this refugee crisis, by providing lots resources, but in turn, are accepting very little refugees. Currently, many aid groups and at least 14 senators have called on the United States government to take in more refugees. These decisions were based on after viewing gruesome images of what Amanda Holpuch of The Guardian calls “...a three-year old boy’s body lying face down in the surf of Turkey.” This boy, along with his older brother (5) and his mother died while reaching Europe. The Journeys taken on by these refugees is very dangerous and treacherous. In a 2014 report by the International Organization for Migration, which is an intergovernmental group, stated that the Mediterranean Sea is one of the most dangerous ways to cross a border. It's rough waters has caused hundreds of refugees to be making a risky journey in suffocating ship holds and

Gender and language initiate an approach to the study of language use and looks into relations between the meaning and gender. Christie provides a systematic introduction to pragmatic approaches explaining the rules of social language and how pragmatics can be realized be feminist analyses of language’s nature

The name of honor may be concealed through the combined power of family and community working in concert, providing alibis for one another and representing a murder as an accidental death or suicide (4). This shows the many lives of the girls who are being murdered by their own family members are not valued. In certain countries, women and girls may not be registered at birth or attend school, so their lives, and their deaths occur outside official figures (4). It is like women would not be missed and so officially women do not even have to be registered. If a woman decides to press charges it would be difficult for her to do so. Also her death would not be recorded just because it was like she never existed. It would almost be like the perfect
