Anne Moody's "Coming Of Age In Mississippi"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. A perfect society would reflect an attitude of equality -- rather than one of segregation -- toward the myriad ethnicities that exist in today's world; however, as much as humanity has moved away from racism, there have been just as many issues that have stalled its enlightenment. Anne Moody's "Coming of Age in Mississippi" effectively addresses this notion as it relates to racial alliance and attitudes in post World War II America. Indeed, the author's life story – both her experiences and evolving thinking on race, gender and social relations – clearly demonstrate the origins, evolution and social/political consequences of the Civil Rights movement.

Applying King's Nonviolence Theories to Peruvian Racial Bias
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing ways in which the principles of nonviolent demonstration can call attention to and require negotiation of racial injustices that have been long institutionalized. Modern Peru holds the remains of colonial racial stratification as did the US in 1963 when Martin Luther King wrote "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" defending the use of the "direct action" aspect of nonviolent demonstration, the action of last resort to force negotiation leading to real and lasting change. Many of the stratifications that now exist in Peru are similar to those existing in the early 1960s. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Being White in America in the 19th Century
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper using Michael Moore’s philosophy of fear in America as presented in his film, “Bowling for Columbine” to define what it meant to be white in the 19th century. The overall effect of the subtleties of fear in the Victorian era; murder of Native Americans in the West; virtual enslavement in Northeastern sweatshops; and the pressures of race relations in the South combined to give whites the appearance of being superior without in actuality being superior at all. Being white in America in the 19th century brought the greatest chance of achieving economic success, but translated into living a life of fear in which there was danger lurking around every corner.

Betty Friedan's "The Feminine Mystique" And Eldridge Cleaver's "Soul On Ice"
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Comparing the postwar work of Betty Friedan to that of Eldridge Cleaver is to draw a common denominator from two seemingly divergent perspectives. While Friedan's The Feminine Mystique addresses the cultural narrow-mindedness of gender, Cleaver's account in Soul On Ice focuses upon the long-standing racial inequities that have plagued man since the beginning of time. Clearly, to compare these two works encourages the student to seek out this common denominator; at the same time, however, the student will also want to discuss the individual characteristics pertinent only to each specific book.

Black Experience: Civil War to the Present
[ send me this paper ]
The black experience in the United States is one which has been affected by a mindset of superiority of those that first bound them into slavery, by the societal segregation which haunted them for years after the end of the Civil War, and by numerous legislative attempts to make up for past wrongs. These attempts centered of course around the Civil Rights movement and friction between blacks and whites which continue to exist to this day. This paper presents the events which occurred throughout history from the perspective of its impact on the life of a fictional family of blacks who lived from the time of slavery to the present.
