Apathy

Antigone. He was also very arrogant and cruel throughout the events of the play. Limited power of women in the play is also a part of the theme. For example, Antigone was treated very poorly and had her rights limited by Creon. In fact, his neglect and apathy towards her caused her to commit suicide. However, these are just a few examples of the theme throughout the play. The main characters in “Antigone” were severely affected by the abuse of power and corruption throughout the play. Creon was…

Upon release of a new debate topic about racial justice and whether or not African Americans should get reparations, I was immediately terrified of what could become of the topic. A mass of racist interpretations that I feared ran in my head, “it dehumanizes them”, or “slavery happened a long time ago”, and worst of all, “there’s no obligation to pay because African Americans benefited from slavery.” I cringed. Here I thought this would be the worse topic I would ever debate, but after a few…

of people in this country that believe that voting does absolutely nothing besides putting their names in the pot to be chosen for jury duty.

Global citizenship is not something that is simply earned as visa stamps on my passport. To me, it's the mindset that my life should be more than a pursuit of conformity, or worse, comfort. Even though I was raised in a stable home, the kind of home that produces conformed, comfortable people, I've learned that ease and placidity are overrated. It all started in Puerto Peñasco, Mexico on a service trip to build a home. It wasn't the scarcity that I saw that opened my eyes, it was that people…

A fundamental aspect of the American justice system is the right of every person accused of a crime, to a trial by jury. The defendant, presumed ‘innocent until proven guilty’, has the right to be judged by a group of his or her peers based on the evidence presented, the assumption being that the defendant will be judged in a fair and impartial manner.
