...How many people can say they know what its like to be a young black woman? We all face obstacles as a individual but there is a common struggle that are faced among black women. Watching the protest and riots breakout in neighborhoods where people looked like me caused me pay attention to the black community in America. The first thing I noticed is the difference between a black woman and a black man in America. Most of the cases of injustice that I've seen has been centered around black men. It is too often that I see a black man gunned down or arrested on the news. This lead me to wonder, are black women equally effected in the injustices of America? I dug deeper and realized that black woman may be the ones that hurt the most. I though...

...throughout this semester. Issues have ranged from social injustices, colonialism, and women’s rights. Some included personal tragedies concerning women of Aboriginal descent living in British Columbia. It has been quite emotional at times to actually read about the struggles that have taken place right here in British Columbia regarding immigrants and Aboriginal people. We even got to meet the author of Mercenary English, Mercedes Eng, in person to make the words of her story really come to life. However, not all of the books we have studied convey negative outlooks of certain problems being faced. There have been positive social changes, personal victories and many moments that make the reader believe things can be made right if an effort is put into it. This research essay will focus on the positive view portrayed in three books studied this semester which include: Mercenary English, Active Geographies-Women and Struggles on the Left Coast and the Unnatural and Accidental Women. The positive themes discussed will display triumphs on a personal level, meaningful change on a social stage and a look at how social activism deeply connects people together. Firstly, Mercenary English has a very unique way of showing social injustice, believed to be carried out in the eyes of its author Mercedes Eng. She writes about personal problems she faced, the negative issues surrounding aboriginal people in Canada and historical injustice against minorities. Her writing is powerful, emotional...

The reservation box located on top left corner will have to be moved towards the right side of the page the color for the box will have to be different. The actual color does not look good with the blue background, so it will have to be changed to light blue and the letters in black wish is a relaxing color, because the people that are looking for this web page is looking for a place to relax and have a nice and peaceful time.

...purple pens Prior to adding red and purple pens to its lineup, Classic Pen’s Return on Sales was approximately 22%. However, producing the new colors has caused many time consuming changeovers, increasing production costs and decreasing the Profit Margin. Comprehensive Return on Sales has fallen from 22% to 13.5% (Exhibit 1). Blue and black pens are still generating a 21.6% and 22.6% return, while red and purple pens are operating at a loss, reducing both Net Income and Return on Sales. Classic Pen Company could easily restore its Profit Margin to 22% if it stopped making red and purple pens. Currently, red and purple pens are causing Classic Pen Company to lose money. If the company wants to continue to produce red and purple pens, it should increase the selling price of these colors, so the Return on Sales is equal to, if not greater than, that of the blue and black pens. However, Classic Pen Company should not continue to produce these additional colors at a loss, decreasing its Net Income and comprehensive Return on Sales. Classic Pen Company should immediately cease production on red and purple pens. It should continue to produce blue and black pens, but should not introduce any new colors to its lineup until it has calculated and analyzed the activity based cost for each proposed product and worked out a pricing structure that will allow it to maintain or increase its original 22% Profit Margin. Conclusion: My recommendation would be to invest in new technology to lower...

...Which is the better colour, black or white? Colour is known as the ‘fill’ of objects, environment and even the skin of some people around us. It is defined as a visual sensation differing with wavelengths which results from the light that they may emit or transmit. My question is; ‘which is the better colour out of black or white?’ Black may not be considered a colour while white might and vice versa; however the attractiveness and appeal of these two ‘colours’ to those who perceive it is my main focus. Regardless of which colour is more suitable to a person’s standards; I am answering this question by thoroughly comparing the two different colours and will attempt to reach a conclusion of which is the dominant colour. First off I will start with the colour black. Black is normally affiliated with feelings of depression which can be reflected through various things such as accessories or clothing. Black can cause powerful feelings of isolation and imply an inconspicuous nature of somebody who is wearing all black so they are not recognised. Black is a pure colour; the opposite of colours filled with vibrancy and passion and contains a much more direct approach. When black is worn, it can be perceived as sophisticated e.g. a person in an all-black suit for work or rebellious e.g. the common teenage punk rock attire. The colour black is known to stimulate an atmosphere of mysteriousness due to the secretive nature of the colour. Black is the most common colour in sophisticated...

...something strange. He appeared to confront the plaintiff, Samantha, in a very peculiar way. Mr. Smith stared, with a piercing gaze, into the woman’s gorgeous light blue eyes. After a few moments, the woman’s eyes appeared to become red as if they were bleeding. The woman stood, fearing for her life, and attempted to run out of the court room. While the woman was running, the defendant, Mr. Smith, seemed to reach into his suit pocket and grab what appeared to be a black remote control. It appeared to be covered in odd, glowing buttons, witnesses said. Mr. Smith pushed a series of buttons on the remote as he aimed it toward Samantha. The woman became petrified and fell to her knees grasping her head. She watched the room spin and then blacked out on the courtroom floor. As witnesses were tending to the woman, the defendant somehow managed to disappear into a large beam of light. A nationwide manhunt is in progress looking for Mr. Smith. He is described as being 6’2,” 145 pounds, and pale grey in color. He was last seen wearing a black Armani Suite. The “Terror,” as he is now being called, is still on the loose. He is believed to be unarmed but, very dangerous at this time. The women remains in critical condition at the St. Joseph Foundation Hospital in Denver,...

Her handiwork was almost done, Her ebony face beaming with pride, And Walking Wendy, once black, was now yellow. Baby, what are you doing to your dolly? Mommy, I’m making Wendy yellow ‘cause I don’t like her colour. And Mommy, Please buy me some paint So I can colour me yellow too. Something crackled in my head Like a damp firecracker struggling to go off. I sunk in slow motion into the nearest sofa, Comprehension creeping likes molasses. My whole body limp. What have they done to my child? Where did she learn to hate herself? She is only three. Could it be at her Gra’ma’s house – Stories told of white part of my mother’s blood? Perhaps she sensed the subtle tones of admiration, Veiled pride in the voice of whoever was telling Once more How Grampa mumma eye mi blue blue, Her puppa being from Scotland, you see. Did my daughter hear such things, Or did she inherit them in her genes Like intelligence of features? Or maybe I was the one to blame Years of cultivated pride in my skin color, What some call red In my baby’s language, yellow. How could I teach her to love herself? With me looking like this? So I started a small revolution: Black love Black pride Pointing out Black beauty everywhere. Come, Sweetie, let’s watch Channel...
