“It is your reaction to adversity, not the adversity itself, that determines how you life’s story will develop” (Dieter F. Uchtdorf). Most people can deal with difficulties, but their reactions to the hardships are different. Only some people can manage their problems. We should try to manage our behaviors in tough situations. If we can deal with our situations, we can overcome difficulties easily. In the story of Farewell to Manzanar written by Jeanne Wakatsuki, the story shows how war can change humans, their life, and their ranks. Although all of the characters of her book face the same problems due to the war and the camps they had to live in, they responded to those situations differently. All of them presented
I am going to critically review a newspaper article on the death of Hamzah Khan from Bradford. I will discuss the main findings the research methodology and the way in which it may or may not be useful in the contribution to our understanding of child welfare.

The book Farewell to Manzanar by Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston and James D. Houston explores many subjects and ideas, including our universal concept of power, our theme of justice, and events happening during World War II. Throughout the book I learned many things I did not know that have really benefited towords the way I think.

In 1954, Japan debuted the world’s first radioactive “king of all monsters”, Gojira. Gojira director, Ishiro Honda, sets the first scene with a destructive power emerging from the sea that would ignite a burning panic throughout Japan and force catastrophe in its wake—much like the atomic bomb it was birthed from. Gojira had a single purpose, to rampage across Japan and decimate everything in its path. As much as they tried to stop the monster, Japan’s defenses fell victim to Gojira’s indestructibility. As Japan’s last resort, they found hope in Dr. Serizawa’s emergence of new science and technology to dismantle Gojira. In the end, the bittersweet success of defeating Gojira with Dr. Serizawa’s Oxygen Destroyer was not dared to be forgotten or thought of lightly. Because if placed in the wrong hands, nuclear weapons testing may continue and another monster might appear again.

At the beginning of Gulabi Gang (the film) Sampat Pal (the woman who founded Gulabi Gang or Pink Gang) she and some other members of the gang engage in a stick fight. This pretend stick fight was encouraged by Sampat, who wanted to see the women’s fighting abilities (Gulabi). This scene encapsulate the essence of Gulabi Gang effort to “turn the table” so to speak, to challenge gender role and women status in Indian society. Sampat Pal who has excellent leadership skills which is essential to any social movement, uses what one would call a very feminist “agenda” by fighting (literally and figuratively) for women’s rights and equality. Even though, what Sampat and the Pink Gang do seems like an extremely difficult thing to do in a “patriarchal” society (I have reservations on using this word, because really, which society isn’t?), however, Sampat seems to know how to take an advantage of the same system she is fighting. For example,
