Integration and Animal Farm by Orwell
Integration of Education in the United States
Throughout history, education is recognized as one of the key components of any civilized society. It is a natural instinct for man to learn, and feel the need to pass on that knowledge to their young and to all those who come behind them. People have a passion for education, and will fight for the opportunity to gain the valuable knowledge that education provides. The importance of education in a society is illustrated in two aspects. The first being the actual events in American history regarding the desegregation of schools, and the second being the action of the animals in George Orwell's Animal Farm upon receiving their liberation on Manor Farm.
In recent times we have witnessed a struggle in American society for the opportunity of minorities to realize the education that their white counterparts received. It began with slavery, when blacks were prohibited from obtaining even the basic skills to read and write. When blacks were finally allowed this liberty, we began our own makeshift schools, and were content with this opportunity. As time progressed, and more formal schools were established, minorities realized that they were not receiving the same quality education as those of the majority. This sparked a legal battle that lasted over fifty years. The first landmark was the case of Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896. It established the doctrine of "separate but equal." This concept stated that separate public facilities of equal quality do not violate the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution. This amendment says that no state may "abridge" the privileges of any citizen, nor may any state deprive any citizen of life, liberty, or property without due process of the law. In 1954, fifty-eight years later, the Case of Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka finally settled the debate of whether or not blacks and whites can receive an education integrated with or separate from each other. This time the Supreme Court unanimously ruled to overturn the Plessy v. Ferguson decision. In his opinion, the Chief Justice wrote, "We conclude that, in the field of public education, the doctrine of "separate but equal" has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal." The Brown case signaled the end of segregation of public places mandated by law.
Throughout, 1900- 1950 there were a number of changes and continuities in China. From the fall of the dynasties to the rise of the Communist Party, these changes shaped China’s government and society. Although, many political changes were made multiple continuities were held constant such as, consistent rebellions and the lack of democracy.
Today, many teenagers work hard to obtain their license starting at age 15 by getting their permit. Many parents encourage their children to get their license and gain these privileges, however some encourage their kids to wait and many states agree. Driving age is commonly set at sixteen, but because of safety concerns, the idea of raising the driving age to eighteen is currently posed by state legislation. Increasing the driving age to eighteen is a smart decision because teenagers are seen as irresponsible, they are more likely to get into accidents, and teens can become easily distracted.
...year, raising the minimum driving age to 16 seems hopeful in making safer roads for society. In doing so we all should strongly encourage our teenage drivers to be more mature, to pay more attention, to be more confident in their driving, and to not think that they are so invincible to accidents.
George Orwell used an English language so simply and accurately to express what he mean, and at the same time with great meaning. He was telling the story about of a revolution by farm animals against their cruel and dissolute master, and about their subsequent fortunes. This was the book that Orwell most prepared for. In 1943, Orwell felt people's admiration for Russian war effort. He was very conscious, so he felt how English communists used their position as unofficial representatives of the USSR to prevent the truth from coming out. Also Orwell was an anti-communist, throughout the book he is on the side of the animals. Also one of the Orwell's goals in writing "Animal Farm" was the portray the Russian Revolution (Bolshevik) on 1917.
5. Setting is a working farm. The setting allows the microcosm of the Animal Farm to be basically undisturbed. Had it been close to a big city or other small towns, then there would have been more interruptions and challenges to Napoleon’s take
“Nice try.” Rojo said as he pulled his gun out and shot the man in the head.
In the 1954 court ruling of Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court ruled that segregation of schools was unconstitutional and violated the Fourteenth Amendment (Justia, n.d.). During the discussion, the separate but equal ruling in 1896 from Plessy v. Ferguson was found to cause black students to feel inferior because white schools were the superior of the two. Furthermore, the ruling states that black students missed out on opportunities that could be provided under a system of desegregation (Justia, n.d.). So the process of classification and how to balance schools according to race began to take place.
The leading cause of death for teens is vehicular crashes. If the driving age were to be raised at eighteen then parents and educators will have more time to prepare these future drivers on safe driving practices. It is inevitable to avoid the risk of getting into an accident on the road and the chances of being one will always be present. But for young minors and adults who aren’t yet involved in the adult world and still have many things to do and accomplish by that time should not be put in this kind of the danger yet. Asking to increase the driving age will give teenagers and young adults more time on their hands to do more, learn more, and mature enough to prepare for what’s out there.
I think the driving age should still be 16, but a lot of people disagree and think that it should be 18. I Think the average person should be able to drive at the age of 16, because that way, they can take themselves to destinations without having to ask their parents. They are also able to get jobs and earn money to get gasoline.
In George Orwell's novel Animal Farm, Orwell introduces a society where the population values intellect and education, giving special status to people who are considered well-educated. In this society, those who are regarded as intelligent attempt to prevent the masses from questioning them by silencing the masses and withdrawing their governance from society; however, those who control the intellectually inferior often leave the masses susceptible to manipulation, forming a world in which the educated and powerful classes obtain absolute power, and true equality can never be achieved. Thus, according to Orwell, given a world where intellect and education are valued, a person who is intelligent and well-educated will often use their superior intelligence to manipulate society to their own benefit.
The issue of sexism in video games have been going on for a long time. Similarly, Fox talks about how “Research has indicated that many video games and virtual worlds are populated by hypersexualized and unrealistic representation of women.” This shows how women have been sexualized in media which represent women as self-objectified. Jess explain in his research that, “as a result of hypersexualization of women in videogames it would lead to increase in rape myth acceptance.” In one of jess experiment he focus on the effects of avatar features on women’s experience of self-objectification. He finds out that college women who are exposed to over sexualized avatar in videogames experienced higher level of self-objectification than those who are exposed to non-sexualized avatar. In addition, Jess explains how “self-objectification mediated the relationship between controlling a sexualizes avatar and subsequent level of RMA.”
The author of the novel “Animal Farm” George Orwell once wrote “every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been against totalitarianism”. Similarly “Animal Farm” also highlight about the totalitarianism. As all other revolutions, the revolution of animal farm also arises with the dream for a better and more perfect society which transfers in to a totalitarian night mare with the urge for the power in the minds of animals, who symbolizes the people who live in society. “Animal Farm is a satirical allegory of Soviet totalitarianism during the Stalin era. In the novel Orwell uses pigs to represent the ruling class and throughout the story he represent how the ruling class people spread and improve their power employing pigs as the characters.
This essay has critically analysed and examined the effect of Communism on the Chinese Society during the period of 1946-1964. The overall conclusion that can be drawn is that the Chinese Communist Party managed to defeat the Kuomintang (Nationalist) Party and achieve victory in the Civil War, in spite of alienation by the Soviet Union and opposition from the U.S. This was primarily because of the superior military strategy employed by the Communists and the economic and political reforms introduced by this party which brought more equality to the peasants in the form of land ownership and better public services. This increased China’s production and manufacturing which not only boosted the country’s economy but also provided a more sustainable supply of food, goods and services for the Chinese people.

I am sure that we all know that having a driver license is a big compromise to drive safe. Then why make the roads more hazardous by raising the driving age to 18? If the driving age is raised there will be more drunk drivers, unemployed New Zealanders and Kiwi’s that don’t have an interest in getting their license anymore. Is this what New Zealand wants?
