That the author develops in this story. Their actions and responses throughout the story are worth thinking about. I also identify a theme the theme of the book is hard work Can achieve greatness and how this helps the reader apply this message in the real world. This companion book will make you think more deeply about this, just like the how the author uses deep thinking to make me feel that the book is deeper and how the author uses right describing details. Also the effective story-writing of Walter Dean Myers. Character Theory Chapter “The Greatest, Muhammad Ali” by Walter Dean Myers, the book is about Muhammad Ali and his life what he did. I think the character theory is not just Ali boxing throughout the book, it's also about him standing up to segregation and the Vietnam War. One peice evidence that supports my theory. Is because of his religion he shouldn’t have to go to the Vietnam War. Being Islamic means not fighting. The U.S was going to fine him and put him in jail but he still didn't go to the Vietnam War. He won the court case later on. Quote from page (61) “Freedom means being able to follow your religion,but It also means carrying the responsibility to choose between right and wrong”. Another piece of evidence that supports my point is Muhammad Ali joining the nation of Islam in 1959 Muhammad Ali was 17 when this was produced. The two people who create it one was a newscaster mike wallace and louis lomax.“Mike
Why should such an understated figure, someone who describes himself as a “nobody”, speak as if he’s in a witness protection programme? The answer is that six years ago he decided to declare that he no longer accepted the fundamental tenets of Islam. He stopped being a believing Muslim and became
This quote really explains the topic in this story because as you read, you notice his entire life situation and how he came about of his careers and his life after. Everything that motivated him and pushed him, the people who believed in him all had part of the topic.
The importance of hard work and earning your way instills a sense of independence within the young generation who was reading the McGuffey textbooks. In the stories “Henry, the Boot-Black” (128) and “Poor Davy” (130) both boys, living in poverty, are praised for their work to support their mother. Working hard to earn a living, even at a young age, is commended and the value of family is reiterated. There is a belief that hard work prepares and enables one to lead a prosperous life. In “Charlie and Rob” (133) and “Advantages of Industry” (97), hard work pays off and is portrayed as the only way to become successful. This core value of work ethic for the American will be important in the changing world of industrialization and effect the attitude of the working class American toward those of wealth, as well as immigrants.
Furthermore, the theme of the story is that persistence pays off. Doris was persistent and it payed off. Doris was persistent because because she did not give up on feeding the dog. The main character also did not give up on asking her parents to keep the gentle stray. Doris’s persistence payed off because
Eventually, Malcolm Little was caught and sentenced to prison for 10 years on robbery charges in 1946. While in prison, he heard about the African American religious group known as the Nation of Islam. The Nation of Islam was a controversial organization founded by Wallace Fard Muhammad. The organization was classified as a cult by many Americans and was known for its extremist philosophies. The main reason it attracted Malcolm Little though was because it was a large, powerful black organization. Malcolm Little was interested and decided to start making contact with the organization through letters. He eventually contacted the group’s leader Elijah Muhammad. Elijah wrote to Malcolm Little saying that blacks should not be ashamed of their skin color and that blacks were not inferior to whites; whites were the ones who put blacks down. For the first time in his life, Malcolm Little began to feel he could be a part of something. He thought he could actually be accepted and become a Muslim. While Malcolm Little was raised a Baptist, he never paid much attention in church and did not understand how singing and praying would make anything better. Now that Malcolm Little had been introduced to a religion and organization that pertained more to him, he was eager. When Malcolm Little was finally let out on parole after 8 years, he instantly became a member of the Nation of Islam and cleansed his
This concept makes the biography more about the Followers of Muhammad than Islam. There are very few instances in the book where they quote the Quran. It creates the question how is the book about a young Muslim yet he relies on the work of others as opposed to the teachings of the holly book. It would have been more helpful if Malcom and Haley had given a little more attention about his life.
Will Smith Ali: Persistent Man Will Smith Ali was director and written both by Michael Mann. I saw this movie over the weekend at home. This movie talk about a man Ali, this man is a boxer. He is a Islam same with Malcolm X. When Vietnam War he should went to join the army. However, he did not think that because Vietnam people never call him nigger.

The theme of this book is that the human capacity to adapt to and find happiness in the most difficult circumstances. Each character in the novel shows this in their way. For instance, their family is randomly taken from their home and forced to
Where he by saying “We didn’t go to bars, we didn’t date; we didn’t hit strip clubs; we didn’t do weed; we didn’t go to parties. We all upheld the Islamic rules that our parents had had such a difficult time enforcing against us when we were younger” accepts the fact that the teachings he had received when little actually influenced him (pg.
Sexton initially presents examples of success stories in which people, with lives of hardship, receive everlasting happiness due to superficial commodities. Sexton creates emphasis for the multiple stories
Social Forces are the “Forces of the environment that include the demographic characteristics of the population and its values.” (Richard J. Ch.3) The social forces can affect the conceptual framework of marriage, education, social class, and politics. In the Nineteenth Century, many authors addressed those social forces in forms of novels. Among those authors were William Makepeace Thackeray and Thomas Hardy. This essay will compare and contrast the nature and function of society and social forces on Thackeray’s Vanity Fair and Hardy’s Tess D’Urberville.
Every country has its story and literature reflects the most important events that happened during a determinate period, and also, how people, politics, religion and the society in general developed during those periods. As I see it, literature, just as all forms of art, is a giant chronological picture that shows all the shades of a society in all its aspects. In this case, English literature, from 1660 to 1830 specifically, shows a great transformation from the beginning of the Restoration to the end of the Romanticism.
The motif behind a literature changes over time. It is affected by numerous factors like politics, religion to name a few. The term feminism has influenced literature in a profound way, and still there are a lot of feminist writers sharing their beliefs. Feminism can be defined as an ideology that believes in equal rights and opportunities for women. So, there were number of writers during the wave of feminism that supported the feminist ideology. Writers like Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath fall on the second wave which happened sometime around the 50s and 60s. Their poetries were very dark themed and talked about their troubled life and how they were wounded emotionally and mentally. Both writers ended their life at their own will. Their literature
