The Wet`suwet` en resistance Question 1 The Wet`suwet` en resistance was among the most successful resistance movements. They protected their land by building a resistance camp. It not only helped the indigenous people claim their land back but also helped resist the construction of pipelines and projects that are harmful to the environment in terms of deforestation and pollution of water catchment areas. The resistance movement was mainly successful due to solidarity, teamwork, and a common goal of reclaiming the land. We can see that power inspires nothing more than the desire to retain it. The indigenous people of the camp were under threat to give up their land but opposed the intent of authorities. They, therefore, were successfully able to take action to protect their property. These actions are similar to the Invasion movie in that the threats to the safety of people without cause inspires resistance. Question 2 We could create awareness on the issues that have been addressed by teaching the people on the problems that could negatively impact them. We could also use social media as…
Achieving a successful Movie People have different ways of spending their free time. Some people will choose to spend their time swimming, reading, hiking, or engage in any form of activity that they feel is fun for them. Similarly, when one is stressed, he/she will look for stress-relieving activity to keep his/her mind away from thinking about the stressing. One of the activity most people prefer to engage in when stressed is by watching movies either alone in a locked room or going to a movie show. That is one way that the movie has been used by people. However, in the wake of digitization and technological advancement that has been witnessed since 20th century, the movie industry has continuously grown where people are investing heavily to develop movies that meet the customers or viewers satisfaction under the connotation “Successful movie.” Ideally, a successful movie means developing a movie that meets customer’s need, receive huge acceptance from fans, meet the guideline of the film board, and maintain ethical standards to the right people. The objective of every movie director is…
THE DANGER OF A SINGLE STORY. Having started reading books at a tender age Adichie became exposed to literature.She grew up reading British and American books.She had the passion of writing and she wrote books that were based on her earlier experience of literature. She believed that books must include characters who are foreigners. . Her books had characters who were mainly the whites. Adichie at 19 years went to The United States to study in the university.

Books authoured by Chinua Achebe and other African writers motivated her .She was motivated that people like her could exist in literature.The discovery of African literature led her to produce her own African books. The purpose of writing this book was to let the world understand that Africa had greater minds than presumed. It is not just a land with a beautiful landscape that could be deceived by the whites. It is not a place filled with negativity.Adichie based her explanation from the story of…
“The Last Night of the World.” Response 1 Dear Ivan Bautista Thank you for your post on the story “The Last Night of the World.” I agree with you that the main characters in the story are the husband, the wife, and unnamed daughters. However, I beg to differ in the conflict part slightly. I believe that the major conflict in the story is demonstrated through “Denial and Acceptance.” According to their anonymous dream, both the husband and the wife come to terms with the impending end of the world. Initially, both wish the dream was not true. Their coping mechanism proves to be isolating, unsatisfying, and unproductive. We learn that even though acceptance can be scary in some instances, it leads to some sense of peace. We eventually learn that denial is an unsatisfying way to handle problems. The wife lies in denial that her dream is true, and she also denies that she had not given the end of the world thought. They later find comfort when they embrace acceptance. Response 2 Dear Dailen Fernandez Thank you…
Reply to Jose Luis Hugo Hey Jose, Thanks for sharing your post with the class. I like how you have used the correct referencing in your post, as well as reliable sources to back up your arguments. I agree that the four basic types and purpose of theories can either be categorized as descriptive, explanatory, predictive, or prescriptive theories. According to Wayne (2020), the prescriptive theory, concerning nursing, stipulates the actions that a nurse must undertake to achieve a prescribed goal. References Wayne, G. (2020). Nursing Theories and Theorists. Retrieved from: https://nurseslabs.com/nursing-theories/ Reply to Shaida Amid Hey Shaida, Thanks for sharing. In general, nursing theories are in place to provide a framework of purposes and concepts to guide nursing practice at a more specific and concrete level. Nursing theories can either be factor-isolating theories, factor-relating theories, explanatory theories, or predictive theory. According to Bond (2011), factor-isolating theory describes the dimensions and properties of phenomena while explanatory theory explains the nature of relationships between different phenomena. I agree that the testing of descriptive theories can be done…
Watching a new video Question 1 I prefer longer arms, thanks to my swimming hobby. Longer arms will cause more balance and swimming power. Longer legs, on the other hand, are likely to create drag, and hence a significant shift to the centre of gravity. Question 2 Watching a new video always has the effect of initiating a person to think about new issues and ideas critically. The scenes in the videos give a person a unique perspective of topics talked about in the films. Typically, this leads to new knowledge as one attempts to understand the plot and themes of a film. This is precisely the same effect a new reader would experience after reading the fictional novel, “Homecoming”. The novel was written by Yaa Gyasi, and published in 2016. The historical fiction novel has several chapters, and each chapter follows a descendant of a lady, named Maame. This is a striking literature skill as each new chapter has a different character and a different setting. Therefore, the author keeps the readers speculative every time they start a new…
the long and complex shift from the “secretive” sub rosa regime before the 1960s to the supra rosa system Despite the relative regularization of homosexuality themes in the contemporary age, they still rank as the most controversial topics in the social and political landscapes. This situation depicts how stigmatization that characterized sexuality and homosexuality discourses in earlier societies. In the article “Lesbian/Gay Studies in the House of Anthropology,” Kath Weston maps out the factors, critiques, and controversies, which prevent the lesbian/gay studies from raising issues in a manner that aligns with the mindsets of both anthropologists and lay audiences. The article was published in the Annual Review of Anthropology journal vol. 22 of 1993. Even though the article integrates some of the complex concepts of anthropology, it utilizes a direct structure to analyze published literature, thereby enhancing the readers’ clear and logical ordering of the ideas. The main topic of this work was to explore the long and complex shift from the “secretive” sub rosa regime before the 1960s to the supra rosa system, which “broke the silence” of sexuality…
In The Thorn, the poem talks about the power being possessed by a community to victimize and fix on the loner In The Thorn, the poem talks about the power being possessed by a community to victimize and fix on the loner. This manipulative narrator makes use of a variety of deceptive devices, including the utilization of other individuals as narrators, characterized in phrases such as “Tis said” and “Some said” (lines 137 and 216). In a poem filled with swearing, saying, and telling, this happens to ironic to some extent. The conflict, at last, holds out the probability of some explanations. However, the intense emotions and a storm get involved so that the breaking point of the narrator transforms into a panic, and the moment gets lost. Also, we are interested in knowing much about this mythic Martha, which is the reason why this moment is significant. Having been recognized with the thorn tree, she happens to be (like the thing itself) designated as “wretched” (9 and 38). Withered and dry, she makes a difference with the young mound’s…
