1. This informative speech on “The Cause of Homelessness “is very Inform able and worth listening to, because in today’s economy it could be you or me. Some seem to think homelessness is choice. I find this speech relevant to the world I live in today, due to the high unemployment rate, declining job market, and the economic hardships that families are enduring. This topic is not a broad one, but yet can be spoke of in depth due to the fact I see many homeless people but never thought it would be me until I seen a family friend who has lost everything, this is what made me more aware that it is not just a choice and any day it could be me. So when you see

Six months ago, corporate daycare facilities were cleaning out my bank account. I was losing the ability to pay for gas, rent and my utilities because all my money was going towards my son’s weekly daycare tuition. My parents could help me scrap on by here and there but that wasn’t there responsibly. It was then that my mother suggested that I should look into putting my son into a local licensed in home daycare facility opposed to a major corporate daycare facility. I was a little skeptical at first, but I

In modern day America, it is common to see people with facial piercings and body modifications; of these piercings, one of the most common and striking is the lip piercing. This can consist of a barbell, hoop, spiral, or other types of rings. They are placed in the sides or center of both the upper and lower lips; multiple piercings side-by-side can even be connected with the spiral rings. But in Africa, these lip rings are nothing in comparison to the lip plates found in many of the women of various tribes. While I had heard of lip plating before, I had never seen what they looked like, let alone saw the process. A four minute, thirty two second long video changed my opinion of the words “lip plating” by showing how the plates are placed, the pain they cause, and what happens when a girl chooses to refuse the plate in the Mursi tribe.

Many years ago the sign of feminine beauty was small feet. To accomplish this goal many women would bind their feet. Foot binding is an extremely excruciating custom from Asia and went from 970 AD to the 1950’s. For 1,000 years foot binding was considered the standard of feminine beauty.
From 2005 to 2015, a British photographer Jo Farrell documented the last footbinding survivors through a photo project titled Living History: Bound Feet Women of China, which was aiming to have the public learn about the footbinding custom and Chinese culture,
The origins of footbinding date back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279), and since then, many historians have debated the motivation for this seemingly strange tradition. Some view footbinding as “an expression of male dominance” or as a “demonstration that families did not need their women’s labor” (Modern China 348). Others interpret footbinding as vital towards understanding standards of “sexuality, fashion, prestige, and beauty” (Modern China 348).
