.... hate and distrust the white man to the point of war. These wars resulted in hundreds of white deaths. However, the wars resulted in the destruction of several entire Indian tribes and the near extinction of Indian spirit throughout America. The tale is a sad one, one that Americans should not be proud of. After every broken treaty, the Americans blamed the Indians for existing, despite the want of the Indians to simply live on their lands peacefully. The "Trail of Tears" was a great tragedy and many thought it would be the last now that all of the Indians were out of the eastern United States. But the U.S. government became land hungry and due to th .....

Polonius the kings royal assistant has a preoccupation with appearance. He always wants to keep up the appearance of loving and caring person. Polonius appears like a man who loves and cares about his son, Laertes. Polonius speaks to his son with advice that sounds sincere but in reality it is rehearsed, hollow and without feeling. Polonius gives his advice only to appear to be the loving caring father. The reality is he only speaks to appear sincere as a politician, to look good rather then actual .....

.... As if rebelling from the previous position of practically non-existence, women changed their clothing, their fashion, and even cut their hair shorter. Once the women had the right to vote with the passing of the 19th Amendment, they did not just sit back. The women of the 1920’s strived for a position of equality for both men and women in society. Americans had a hunger for news in the Twenties. Every day they would flock to the newsstand for the latest information.

.... decided to aide South Vietnam to balance things out. The only difference is that Johnson would send troops to help South Vietnam, as opposed to Soviet Union and China. Some alternative options the president considered before making the decision he did was to simply ignore the issue, keep the present involvement with Vietnam the way it was, or he could decrease involvement with Vietnam. Well, luckily the president did in fact reach the decision of aiding South Vietnam, otherwise Vietnam would most likely become two separate nations. There were many people supporting the presidents decision, as well as opposing people. There were American citizens wh .....

.... population is that family is the most important thing in a person's life and the strength of the Latino family. The film started in a small village in Mexico in the year of 1926 when Jose Sanchez (Jacob Vargas) moved across to California to look for a better living. The only living relative Jose Sanchez had was in Los Angeles. It took him over a year to get to the other side. Finally he reached Los Angeles. The border in those days was just a line in the dirt.

.... are controlled and balanced against the needs of the community as a whole. In other words, More attempts to describe a society in which the seven deadly sins are counterbalanced by other motivations set up by the government and society as a whole. I believe that by providing the answer to the timeless question of overcoming man's inherent evils in such a way More creates a perfect society to be modeled after. Many of the ideals in More's Utopia are, as the name implies, based on ideal situations and not reality. They would work well in a civilization of automatons, but would be abolished quickly in a human situation. Nevertheless, we can apply the i .....

.... for doing wrong for love Jean had changes his life forever. Where we live the one thing everyone loves yet takes for granted must be freedom. Jean Valjean, being imprisoned twice had but one thing on his mind, regaining this virtue once again. However, in attempting to do this multiple times by escaping from jail he succeeded only in lengthening his sentence without it. You can not learn to appreciate something that you always have had until you lose it. Perhaps this is why Jean was forever thankful of the little things, which everyone had and was happy to have only those once he was out of prison, so long as he had his freedom. .....
