Explanation:
Strong blog post, about (Poverty or Prejudice) minimum 350 words
Answer:“Poverty is not a major factor in cause of crime.” For the author, crime was simply a matter of personal choice. Such logic is seductive and piggybacks on the US ideology of individual economic responsibility. Poverty becomes something one chooses to move from or not. In such a world, failure to achieve is viewed as the responsibility of the individual.
This is poverty as moral failure and justifies for many any personal prejudice against the poor, including the nonsense that poverty does not impact crime. Such ideas about poverty are often based on personal stories about people who rose up and broke out of poverty. Anecdote is not good science; it’s more like myth-making. Anthropological research into poverty highlights a diversity of experiences among people classified as poor—including great resilience by those who do not escape it.
And while there is certainly academic debate about whether poverty causes crime, it has been proven that many conditions inherent in poverty are risk factors for criminal behaviour. Anthropologists do not document poverty as an economic condition to be measured. Rather they describe poverty as a qualitative social relation of multi-dimensional deprivation. That means poverty affects the quality of a person’s life not just in terms of income but rights, opportunities, capabilities and entitlements.
Yes, poverty doesn’t affect every person in exactly the same way but poverty does impact every person’s ability to achieve his or her full human potential and the World Bank’s 2001 report on poverty said just that.
People living in poverty are more likely to live or come from broken homes, experience low levels of education, suffer high rates of mortality, lack support, possess weak social networks, endure poor health conditions, including poor nutrition that effects many different abilities. They are also likely to be excluded from market participation and services.
Calling all people who live in poverty “vagabonds” is not only prejudice and deliberately misleading, it suggests poverty is just about being hungry and needing a job, and there is no structural impediment to breaking the cycle. People can come forward with their examples of individual success stories but it doesn’t change the fact that while some individuals break the cycle, the group “poor” on the whole cannot break the cycle and capitalism is designed to function in that precise way.
Capitalism requires an underclass, a poor, an industrial reserve army of labour, to do all the low-paying, awful jobs. That is a fact. Great wealth was, and is, accumulated by dispossession and it produces/d great poverty. Capitalism is a zero-sum game. There must be winners and losers. This isn’t a fun ride for everyone; this is neoliberal 21st century capitalism and it’s not that different in its punishments to late 19th century capitalism.
In this sense, poverty is a consequence of historical relationships that include white supremacy, racial hierarchy, underdevelopment, the creation of laws, class warfare, urbanism, transnational geopolitics, and how such big processes made and make the world. Poverty is not an abstraction one can personally choose to overcome or not. Rather, poverty is about social processes and the effects those processes have on productive people.
Let’s end with a simple question. What came first: poverty or the culture of poverty? Anthropologist Phillipe Bourgois spent years living and researching drugs dealers in the ghettos of Puerto Rico. He noted that rather than guns and drug culture being the culture of the ghetto, the ghetto and its poverty should be understood in historical and social context as the reaction to particular social and economic configurations in the colonial relationship between the USA and Puerto Rico.
A similar argument can be made about T&T. Yes, a culture of poverty can lead to criminality and anti-social behaviour, but we should also understand how the historical circumstances of our colonial relationship gave us the poverty that in turn constantly produces/d the culture of poverty we now denigrate and fear.
Put bluntly, blaming the poor for living in poverty rather than fixing the society that produces/d poverty is a massive blind spot found among some who do not live in poverty. It helps them feel successful and accomplished—superior. It’s a hold over of the divide-and-conquer politics of colonialism and racist at heart.
Poverty and the many wider socio-cultural issues, like crime, that it impacts, exist (and always will) because of the type of society we’ve all built, not because of the failure of individuals to personally overcome poverty.

Violence in video games is essentially to blame for violence in our society. When children are bombarded with monstrous images, they begin to think that these types of actions are normal or acceptable. Children and teenagers are spending excessive numbers of hours playing video games, and they may begin to use them as a guideline for how to act and behave. Even if they do not perform violent actions, they may become less sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others because of what they see reflected in these games.

Answer:
1) Althea Gibson was full of energy and she was dedicated and she never gave up which shows she was determined.
2) Gibson faced some hardships such as almost going bankrupt, she suffered from a stroke which lead to her developing heart problems, and from there her health was just declining more and more, she faced the hardship of many white people not allowing her to play or her getting a hotel room because she was black.
3) Billie Jean King means that if it wasn't for Gibson then many black woman would have to work harder and they wouldn't believe that they could do it, but Gibson showed the world that you can do anything if you put your heart and dedication into it.
4) You can tell that Gibson always wanted to improve herself because she said that she wanted to be somebody "But Gibson did not let this get her down. She kept playing hard. She wanted to be the best". She kept practicing and working harder to improve herself.
5) Yes, I believe that Althea Gibson is a sport legend. I believe this because she faced so many hardships in her life but didn't give up, those hardships that she faced just shaped her more and made her more determined. Most people just give up but she was not going to because she wanted to be the best there was. I also think she is a sports legend because she had so much determination and perseverance and she was one of the people who broke the record and showed other black woman and men that they can do anything with hard work, practice, determination and they can be anyone no matter their color. "But she kept trying". "She kept playing hard". "She was named the female athlete of the year. She was the first african american to win that honor". "Her success made it easier for African Americans, and other woman, to succeed in the sport." and finally "Gibson showed it could be done".

Answer:
I would want to be friends with Mrs.Jones because she is a very generous person. I think this because one time when Roger tried to steal Mrs. Jones Purse, instead of calling the cops or doing something unpleasant to him, she gave roger a hot meal and 10 $.
Explanation:
Ye so uhm I read it a few minutes ago so here's the response I came up with-
I would like to have a friend like Mrs. Jones for many reasons. However one is because she is an understanding and forgiving person. In the text it states "She heated some lima beans and ham she had in the icebox, made the cocoa, and set the table. The woman did not ask the boy anything about where he lived, or his folks, or anything else that would embarrass him. Instead, as they ate, she told him about her job in a hotel beauty shop that stayed open late, what the work was like, and how all kinds of women came in and out, blondes, red-heads, and Spanish. Then she cut him a half of her ten-cent cake". This shows that Mrs. Jones still has compassion for the boy even though he had tried to steal her pocket watch. It also then says later in the text. "The boy wanted to say something else other that "Thank you, ma’am" to Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones, but he couldn’t do so as he turned at the barren stoop and looked back at the large woman in the door. He barely managed to say "Thank you" before she shut the door. And he never saw her again." This shows that Mrs. Jones was a kind person to Roger. To conclude this is why I would like to have a friend like Mrs. Jones.

Unbroken chapter 1 summary
Answer:
In California in the summer of 1929, Louie and his brother, Pete, wake to the sound, and then sight, of a massive aircraft passing over their house. Louie notices how the famous German dirigible airship Graf Zeppelin covers the star-filled sky with complete darkness. That night, the airship is three days from completing its objective of circumnavigating the globe. It has already passed over New York, France, Switzerland, Germany, and Japan.
Louie was born in Olean, New York to Italian immigrant parents, and suffered from pneumonia before the age of two. A daredevil from a very young age, Louie jumped off the caboose of a train at age two, when his family began a relocation journey to California. As a child, Louie had many adventures around the streets and alleys of his new hometown, Torrance, California. He often stole food and other items and ran away. At times, he was mischievous just for the sake of it. He had a gift for escaping and was not easily discouraged.
Louie’s older brother, Pete, appeared to be the opposite of Louie: polite and successful. Pete took care of Louie, which was not easy because of Louie’s obvious ways of standing out from others in his community. He was shorter than most other kids at school, and was bullied for not only this, but his Italian heritage. As Louie got older, he got in more trouble, and fought with classmates and policemen alike. It was only when his neighbor was almost a victim of government sterilization of people deemed unfit to reproduce, that Louie tried to clean up his act. Even then, he couldn’t seem to do anything right. He longed for a different life and started to dream of escape.

What role did the media play in creating myths about African American men and communities of color in general?
Jacob is writing a narrative about cooking dinner for his family. Read the following excerpt from his narrative:
I turned on the heat to warm the olive oil. The oil’s fruity fragrance began to fill the air. It was soon joined by the sharp tang of chopped onions and garlic as I tossed them in the pan. They sizzled softly as I stirred them with a spatula. They browned and softened in the heat. Next I added rich, red chunks of tomatoes. My mouth watered, waiting for the sauce, made from my grandmother’s cherished recipe, to cook.
