Between the years of 1914 to 1918, approaching 1 million British soldiers gave up their lives fighting for King and country (greatwar.co.uk). Wilfred Owens, one of the greater known first world war poets, was one of these. He died at the age of twenty-five, only a week away from armistice, leaving behind approaching 100 poems.

Laudat (2005) examined the connection between being a “mixed race” woman and experiencing depression. One…

For my discussion post, I chose to talk about the industry of athletic development. Originally, the intentions of organized youth sports were generally good. As stated in the book, “postwar prosperity put discretionary income in the hands of parents who wanted to provide their children with opportunities that they had been denied growing up in a time of depression and war” (Davies, p. 361). In today’s society, this concept of organized youth sports has become somewhat corrupted in my opinion.…

past. Ahmeya' memories had faded with the years and when she spoke of her life as a pioneer girl she felt as if she were talking of someone else. Tamataunee was not bothered by her past at all, or the fact that she was white. He had lived by the lake all his life, and had not been affected as much by the settlers taking over the Indian Territory as Ahmeya had. They shared their secrets and laughed at foolish things they had done. Both of them had great respect for the nature around them and were…
