.... they couldn't get a good education. "Besides, those doors are always open to them…But most are deprived of education…This gets easier and easier until she comes up with still another child to abort or support, But none of this is 'Negro-ness'" (Griffin 92). This quote shows that the blacks were deprived of an education, and a good education is usually a symbol of middle- or higher- class citizen. "They are so close to their ancestors learned to read and write at the risk of severe punishment, that learning is almost a sacred privilege (Griffin 125)." This quote shows how the whites had deprived them of an education for many centuries. T .....

.... tries stealing things and selling them away for the money they might get caught stealing and have to go to jail. A person might become addicted to gambling from going to the casino too often. I consider going to the casino more than three times a week being addicted. Also a person might become addicted to gambling if when one of the first couple times that they go they win money. So that might lead in to them thinking that they are going to win money every time they go but the casinos are not in the business to lose money. The odds are set so that more often then not that the casino will make money after all when you are playing slots .....

.... of their race on television are White and African-American, while Latino and Asian children are much less likely to see their race represented. “In one study, it showed that white males accounted for over fifty percent of the people of the “main� characters in each program.� (Media Awareness Network). Despite the few shows shown as colored people as the central characters there is still a long way to go. There also has been a distinct increase in the number of minority and aboriginal newscasters, both as reporters, editors and producers. “Also, in 1989 study on billboard advertising in Montreal subway stations, the research .....

.... because they receive pleasure from helping that person out. You can look at it the same way towards people who help the homeless or give to charity. The main reason they help is really for the satisfaction that they receive out of helping. , however, in my opinion is too harsh of a word to use for these actions. I mean absolutely everyone seeks happiness and satisfaction in everything they do and therefore it is just human nature to act this way. is a term that can be used to describe people who do things only for themselves and do things solely for their own satisfaction unlike others who do it in part for their own satisfaction but .....

.... led to his situation occur to millions of people throughout the country. The growing problem of homelessness is worsened by the welfare programs that offer subsistence rather than opportunities, or incentives (Long 23). Federal expenditures for public and private low-cost housing have been cut from $30 billion, in 1981, to $7 billion in 1987, and only about 4 million of 10 million eligible households receive federal rental assistance of any kind (Long 29). In the essay, “A Nation of Welfare Families,� Stephanie Coontz discusses her belief that all families in American history have depended on the legislative, judicial, and soc .....

.... State I have seen discrimination quite often. White people walking by a group of black people and saying a racial slur or two towards them, but not loud enough that they would hear it. Or, I have seen the same thing vise-versa. Institutional racism plays a big role on campus. One example is at the Metropolitan Institution of Technology where a group of African Americans took over three dormitory floors and named it “chocolate city.� It is clear when an ethnic group of any kind says that their group can live there and nobody else, that is Institutional racism. One thing that is being done about racism and more specific, institutio .....

.... viewing The Road Runner cartoon, Wyle E. Coyote is repeatedly injured in what reality is considered dangerous acts but never seems to be harmed. During one episode of the show, he may fall off of a cliff, get blown up by a bomb, hit by a car and be involved in various other harmful accidents. Oddly enough, none of these accidents ever seem to hurt Wyle E. Coyote, or stop him from repeating his harmful actions. He shows no pain, never goes to the hospital, nor does he ever receive any attention or affection from those who care about him, his family. Cartoons, such as The Road Runner, that children view are misleading them, in the fact .....

.... and privileged and living in a suburb near you" (Giles, p4). In addition, Advertising Age referred to Generation X'ers as "That cynical, purple-haired blob watching TV." (Giles, p2) What makes our generation so special, is that we have proven them all wrong. Generation X consists of those between the ages 13 and 33 years of age. We as a group have become the productive, interested, and hardworking individuals that we are today. We have grown to realize that the future's undiscovered country is awaiting our arrival, and is there for the taking. It isn't at all ironic that during our short lives the world has seen so many .....

.... preferred alternative product declines or the product is currently unavailable, the consumer is expected to choose a close substitute. From the firm's strategic point of view, this means that the marketer of a secondary brand should make its brand similar to the most popular brand. Careful consideration of the preceding description of consumer choice behaviour and the firm's selection of a strategy immediately leads one to question the general applicability of these assumption / thought. Although consumers often display stable preferences, sound choice behaviour seldom remains constant. Instead, consumers frequently change their choice .....

.... very important for children to know and understand in case they, or someone they know is ever involved in an abusive situation. The small scale association is limited to children so they can feel free to express their experiences and ask questions openly to others without having to worry about adult supervision. This may interest children to comment on situations and on general conversation that they normally would be scared to ask their parents. I feel that this is relevant to children in today's society because these situations of abuse and neglect occur in many households, and children either do not know their rights or fail to take .....
