Fairness in Schooling: Legacy of the Brown v. Board of Education Decision

Introduction

The issue of racial segregation was raised in many social sectors of the USA of the 20th century. In the field of education, the ban on co-education of white and black children had been in force for many decades, and one of the turning points that became the driver of repealing this inhuman law was the case called Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka (United States, Supreme Court). The decision adopted by the Supreme Court was a significant step in the fight against racial prejudices and allowed solving many problems caused by the discontent of the black population of the United States. The legacy of this case was the expansion of the rights and freedoms of those citizens who had been segregated for a long time; however, some manifestations of unfairness remained and developed due to new schooling conditions.

Case Background

In the era when the case in question took place, the problem of unfairness in schooling was a significant social gap. The endorsement of racial segregation exacerbated relations between the white and black populations. According to Turner, one of the reasons why Mr. Brown filed a class-action lawsuit to grant equal rights in schooling was seeking to draw attention to distorted values under the influence of racist policies approved by the state (217).

In the formal case, judicial precedents are mentioned, and Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka could be another pointless hearing (United States, Supreme Court). In particular, the Fourteenth Amendment mentioned in the case allowed separating students by race, provided that the conditions of schooling were equal and did not impede free education (United States, Supreme Court). However, the plaintiff was able to prove that segregation was an illegal phenomenon and contrary to human rights a priori. This was the occasion for considering the case at the highest level.

The practice of students racial separation, which existed before the final verdict in the case in question, was widespread in the overwhelming majority of the states of the country. At the same time, as Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis note, until 1954, the number of black educators was significantly larger than after, and black students academic results were higher (187). This may be due to the unique educational environment that was maintained in educational institutions of this type and helped all interested persons to focus on the learning process.

However, since the case of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, the number of black educators began to fall, which became a common trend across the country (United States, Supreme Court). The plaintiffs, who signed a collective appeal to the court, aimed to provide equal rights because, despite the governments position on the identical quality of education, the black community believed that racial segregation was associated with lower quality of education and the lack of social protection for all involved. As a result, the lawsuit was approved, and racial segregation was banned legally, although this decision provoked open disapproval in several states.

Fairness of the Decision

From a moral point of view, the fairness of the decision in the considered case was objective. Turner states that unequal schooling entailed not only social but also financial issues, which were expressed in the unfair financing of schools for black youth and the provision of insufficient funds to unlock childrens academic potential (218). Despite the fact that the authentic educational environment in such institutions facilitated productive interaction between teachers and children, the inequality promoted in society put pressure on the black community.

The principle of equal access to identical training, which was achieved after the hearing of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, became a significant stage in the development of American society and set a course to eliminate manifestations of racism in all the spheres of life (United States, Supreme Court). As a result, fundamentally new conditions for interaction among citizens advanced, and a significant social gap was overcome.

The previously existing conditions of the Fourteenth Amendment that de jure did not contradict racial segregation were revised and interpreted from an objective standpoint. According to Turner, equality promoted by black activists made it possible to remove a number of obstacles that created various challenges for both parents and children (227). The possibility of joint education, which opened after the abolition of segregation, allowed many young people to gain greater opportunities for further individual and professional growth by obtaining a better educational background.

As Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis argue, the case in question was to stimulate not only the educational community to change the mode of service provision but also policymakers in order to draw attention to numerous issues (189). Thus, the legal results of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka were associated with different aspects of social development, and a number of new freedoms were ensured due to intervention in this topic (United States, Supreme Court). Therefore, the objectivity and fairness of the decision made were reasonable and justified.

Despite the fact that the case of 1954 concerned only school education, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka gave impetus to the common struggle for equality in various social sectors (United States, Supreme Court). Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis state that more suburban areas were populated, which allowed constructing more schools (188). The Fourteenth Amendment, which was considered legitimate previously, was revised in favor of citizens equality. Thus, the case under consideration was a turning point on the road to building a democratic American society.

Unfairness of New Conditions

Since the elimination of inequality in school education was achieved, the further development of the educational industry went to a new stage. Today, according to Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis, African American students can receive qualified teaching services and rely on the understanding of their needs (188). However, as the authors state, there are persistent achievement disparities between Black students and their peers from other ethnic groups (Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis 187).

This is a consequence of different levels of education and is expressed in lower academic outcomes among African American children. Another manifestation of unfairness, as Sealey-Ruiz and Lewis argue, is minimal access to advanced learning conditions, in particular, gifted programs (188). Therefore, the new schooling regime cannot be regarded as entirely favorable for the African American community.

As an unfair legacy of the case in question, one can also note cultural changes. Turner remarks that post-segregation time was characterized by a shift in social norms, which affected the quality of school education (226). In addition, the author states that, although the law influenced other areas of life indirectly, the difficulties of interaction between the black and white populations persisted due to the dissatisfaction of many citizens with the outcomes of the decision (Turner 227). Therefore, when evaluating the results of the decision, one should take into account some negative consequences.

Conclusion

The expansion of the rights and freedoms of the segregated African American population was the legacy of the case under consideration, although some ambiguous issues and challenges manifested themselves after the change in the legislation. The fairness of the decision taken by the Supreme Court was justified by the principles of equality and democracy. As a result, the rules of schooling were changed, but the problems of interaction between black and white populations persisted, and some educational challenges were identified, including the lack of access for African American students to gifted programs, academic disparities, and a shift in social norms.

Political Legacy of the Chicano Movement

Introduction

Chicano Movement was the answer from Mexican Americans to the challenges of the entire Civil Rights era. Chicanos recognized that they were also oppressed in terms of labor opportunities, education quality, and were treated as second-class citizens. Their political fight, thus, was aimed to achieve positive upheaval in three main directions: rights of farmworkers, restoration of land, and educational reforms. Although many Chicano initiatives and protests failed, Mexican Americans gain a needed social offset and foothold to continue the movement, which is still ongoing to some extent. The goal of this paper is to find out and discuss the main achievements of the Chicano Movement, which is an essential legacy for current Mexican Americans.

Farmworkers Rights

One of the most important goals for the Chicano Movement was the development of rights for farmworkers. Bracero Program, which was an agreement between Mexico and the US, became one of the main issues which triggered the fight for farmworkers rights. This agreement enabled Mexican residents to work temporarily in the United States in the agricultural sector. The US government designed the program to temporarily increase the number of the labor force because of the manpower shortage brought by WW II. However, the Bracero Program lasted for 22 years until it was terminated in 1964. Public Law 78 was very beneficial for the growers as they could pay lower wages, but this program affected adversely working and financial conditions both for domestic and Mexican workers.

In the 1960s, Mexican Americans were fighting for unionization for agricultural workers to achieve equal rights and higher wages. Dolores Huerta, a famous labor leader of the movement, created the Agriculture Workers Association, which in 1959 was incorporated in AWOC (Montoya 42). Cesar Chavez, who was raised by impoverished farmworkers, established the National Farm Workers Association in 1962, another prominent organization (Gómez-Quiñones and Vásquez 95). He found this organization after the CSO refusal to back his initiative to organize farmworkers. Together with Huerta, he had been building the union for three years, meeting with farm laborers across California.

In 1964, Chavez, along with other community leaders, put pressure on the government what helped to end the Bracero program. Moreover, in 1965 two leading organizations united to organize a famous grape growers boycott in Delano. The aim of roving pickets of grape pickers, which targeted different fields every day, was to raise the wage for workers and make growers recognize United Farm Workers as a union (Montoya 59). The movement applied various methods of striking, such as calling upon the consumers not to buy table grapes, organizing a 25-day hunger march to Sacramento, attracting media attention, etc. Those civil rights efforts were rewarded only in 1970 when growers conducted deals with UFW, recognizing them as a union.

As a result, the movement made employers sign union contracts and reorganize the industry what put an end to the discrimination and favoritism of growers. The activists achieved better pay, housing, and working conditions for Chicano workers. The UFW actions were successful due to its dual nature of civil rights and union struggle. It seemed that this organization was the first union of farmworkers, which could last for a long time.

Restoration of Land

El Movimiento in the 1960s and 1970s, apart from civil rights, was also focused on the question of land grants restoration. The Mexican-American war of 1846-1848 finished with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgos conclusion between two warring states (Gómez-Quiñones and Vásquez 106). As a result, the US, famous for pursuing land expansion at that time, acquired part of Mexican territory that currently belongs to such Southwestern states as Utah, California, Nevada, etc.

The problem is that the treaty enclosed a provision aimed to protect the property rights of Mexicans who owned lands before the war. In other words, Hispanics were ensured to preserve their property rights in the territories that were transferred to the US. However, the American government considerably violated this part of the agreement, as it denied grants that were issued to Mexicans under Mexican and Spanish law. Many Mexicans who decided to stay on their land faced harsh racism and were treated as second-class citizens. That is why many Mexicans became victims of the war, as their original property rights were infringed.

Moreover, Chicano activists named that lost lands Aztlan, as they supposed it comprised the ancestral homeland of the Nahua, Mexican indigenous group. The Hispanic community argued that many Mexicans were full United States citizens, not immigrants, which defends their legal ownership status over ceded lands (Montoya 68). Chicano leaders, simultaneously with the development of the Afro-American civil rights movement, addressed the question of lost territories. For instance, Reies Lopez Tijerina, also known as King Tiger, was a famous Mexican radical who spearheaded the fight for confiscated lands in New Mexico from 1956 to 1976.

Tijerina encouraged hundreds of Mexican Americans to demand land restitution and popularized the property rights movement in the 1960s with the help of the newspaper column and radio program (Montoya 70). In 1963, he founded the Federal Alliance of Land Grants, which initially dealt with 800 members possessing 48 grants. In 1966, La Alianza gained national attention due to their attempt to seize the San Joaquin land, which was reclaimed as the republic.

As a result, the group was accused of assaulting government officials (Gómez-Quiñones and Vásquez 108). Still, Tijerina organized a raid of the courthouse in Tierra Amarilla as he wanted to perform a citizens arrest of the attorney for their civil rights offense and undermining the organizations efforts. The leader was eventually imprisoned in federal jail, La Alianza declined, and its efforts to start the land grants investigation failed (Montoya 77). The Crusade for Justice leader, Rodolfo Gonzales, should be mentioned as well, as he supported a separate Chicano state. He wrote an epic poem, I am Joaquín, which condemned the treaty and shed light on Mexican identity and history.

Education Reforms

The last but not least political direction of the Chicano struggle was a demand to eliminate social injustice in the educational system. According to Montoya, only twenty-five percent of Mexican Americans successfully finished high school (136). The majority of them suffered from segregation, unequal opportunities in the learning process, insufficient quality of education, and different types of racism. All that led to very pessimistic opportunities for the young Mexican students future, as they were forced to follow their parents and enter the cheap labor force market.

As a result, young Chicanos realized that their right to have proper education was violated, and they started to demand reforms from the government (Gómez-Quiñones and Vásquez 125). They were conscious of the discriminatory nature of the educational system and claimed that schools are guilty of helpless and poor generations of Mexican Americans. Another issue that intensified the movement was the Vietnam War, criticized for a higher rate of Chicano casualties in comparison to others in the army.

The Chicano youth, who had an important place in the movement due to their activism, radicalism, and energy, formed a chain of various student organizations, which they titled the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán. It consisted of such famous organizations as the Mexican American Youth Association and the United Mexican American Students (Montoya 107). In 1968-1969, the members of those groups organized school walkouts in Los Angeles and Denver, demonstrating against the exclusion of the Spanish language, high dropout rates among Mexican students, and inappropriate curriculums. Moreover, they had been putting pressure on the government to include Mexican American history in the syllabus and increase the number of Chicano teachers.

Meanwhile, other youth groups established militant organizations such as the Young Lords and Brown Berets, which were similar to Black Panthers (Montoya 109). Both groups had a comprehensive agenda consisting of fighting inferior health care, education issues, the lack of political representation, the Vietnam War, and inadequate employment opportunities. As a result, in the 1970s, the Chicano struggle was reimbursed with educational reforms. The US Supreme Court, together with the Health Department, recognized the breach of Mexican civil rights in prohibition to study in a different language. Moreover, in 1974 the Equal Opportunity Act was adopted by Congress what establish bilingual education programs.

Conclusion

To conclude, Chicano activism embraced all the main spheres of political and social life to fight for equality and a bright future. Although land restoration efforts failed and the Raza Unida Party did not achieve what the leaders planned, the movement was successful in many other areas. Youth organizations forced the government to implement bilingual education, while such activists as Chavez and Huerta achieved better work conditions and higher payment for labor workers. As a result, many unfair and discriminative laws were replaced with more progressive ones. Chicano movement was also successful in terms of Mexican American self-determination, as extensive media representation helped them to attract the US attention to their social struggle.

Elvis Presleys Legacy in Las Vegas

Introduction

Las Vegas, which translates from Spanish as «fertile valleys», is a world center of entertainment for every taste. Since the second half of the twentieth century, Las Vegas seems to be «the city of a thousand lights», and one of the greatest centers of show business development. Elvis Presley was one of the first Hollywood stars to fall in love with this city. He gave a huge variety of concerts in Las Vegas hotels, presented there his new shows and signed dozens of contracts for recording and shooting. Vegas can rightly be considered the second home of the artist, while he was the soul of the city. This paper aims to describe the Presleys path that led him to the «sin city», the Vegas era in Elvis  career, and the legacy that remained there after him.

Elvis and His Path to Fame

Musician and actor Elvis Aaron Presley was born on January 8, 1935, in Tupelo, Mississippi. At the age of 10, the boy got his first guitar, and later he won a musical competition at Humes High School in Memphis, which allowed him to feel the first taste of victory.

After graduating from high school, Presley worked in many places at the same time, trying to realize his dream to become famous in the musical field. He recorded his first demo of the song in a location that would later be called Sun Studio. Sam Phillips, the owner of the studio, decided to take the young singer under his wing. Soon Presley recorded his songs and went on tour in the hope of success. Presleys first single was Thats All Right.

Shortly, Presley began to acquire fans attracted by his unusual musical style and pleasant appearance. In the same year, he signed a contract with the RCA Records studio. In 1956, Presley became successful recording his single Heartbreak Hotel and his first album Elvis Presley; and the singer also signed a contract with Paramount Pictures as an actor (Gregory 104). Despite the gossip about the obscene movements of his hips, he became a frequent guest at numerous pop television concerts.

Soon Presley was everywhere  on radio, television, and screen, working as a musician and actor. His first film Love Me Tender, released in 1956, became an immediate hit (Gregory 115). Even military service did not interfere with the rapidly growing popularity of Elvis: his pre-recorded songs continued to be released. In subsequent years, he continued to study music and starred in films such as Blue Hawaii in 1961, Girls! Girls! Girls! in 1962 and Viva Las Vegas in 1964 (Gregory 137). According to Goggin, the Hollywood-Vegas outreach to youth culture reached a high point with the Elvis Presley vehicle Viva Las Vegas (249). The moment of the singers acquaintance with Las Vegas is considered one of the most important in his career; it has fundamentally affected the reputation of the city as well.

In the Lights of Las Vegas

On April 15, 1969, Presley signed a contract with the newly built hotel International, in 1971 renamed as Las Vegas Hilton, for the summer engagement. He received for it an unprecedented for Las Vegas amount of 500 000 dollars (Goggin 256). The program included hits from the 1950s  early 1960s, as well as several new performances and cover versions of modern songs. Right after the success of the Las Vegas shows, two live records were released: Elvis in Person and On Stage.

Soon Presley found his new image. In February 1970, he appeared on stage in a white flared jumpsuit, trimmed with macramé and fastened with a large buckle. According to King, for Elviss impersonators worldwide, the preferred image is the Las Vegas white spangled suit (174). Over time, the design of costumes became more complicated, with the addition of precious stones, rhinestones, and metal jewelry, but the style remained the same. There were so-called Elvis impersonators, who performed in his outfit on every corner in Las Vegas. According to Gregory, while Elvis was in Las Vegas, he watched headliners in no less than six of the hotels spoofing him in their acts (149). Some of the parodies were humorous, and others were an attempt to demonstrate admiration for the singer.

Touring and engagements in Las Vegas soon became the main content of Presleys career. As for the work in the studio, his interest in it almost completely disappeared. This period was captured in a new documentary film Elvis on tour, directed by Robert Abel and Pierre Edige. The next project was the concert Aloha from Hawaii, which became the first show in the world, which was broadcast via global satellite communication.

The performance fees amounted to 900,000 dollars, and the entire profit from the tickets was donated to the charity fund fighting cancer. A few weeks after the Hawaiian concert, Presley played his eighth season in Las Vegas, during which the singer had to miss several performances due to health problems. For many years, Elvis Presley was dependent on officially prescribed medicine, which became drugs for him. He was only 42 years old when he was found dead at his Graceland mansion.

Las Vegas and the Kings Legacy

Las Vegas is a place of fame, where all Hollywood stars are happy to give concerts, and young talents dream to debut. However, this was not always the case: initially it was an unremarkable provincial town; civilization and economic development reached it with difficulty. According to Rothman, Las Vegas was an insignificant part of a great government-industry matrix that defined the twentieth century (3). Everything changed when the gambling industry grew in a small town in Nevada, and when money began to appear there. But at the heart of the incredible popularity and glory of Las Vegas is a long-term relationship with the music and film industry.

With his constant presence, Elvis Presley has done more for Las Vegas than all the casinos and hotels combined. He gave the city an image, inspiring it with his style and taste. It was after Elvis that Vegas turned from a «sin city» into a city of freedom and creativity. Every street is imbued with the singers spirit, and every citizen is proud of the fact that Las Vegas is the city to which Elvis Presley was most attached and devoted most of his career.

A new exhibition dedicated to the creative path of Elvis Presley opened in Las Vegas in 2015. Hotel Westgate Resort Casino, where Presley made more than 600 performances, engaged in the organization of a permanent exhibition, which was called Graceland Presents ELVIS: the Exhibition  the Show  the Experience. According to Harrison, the exhibition covers an area of 28,000 square feet, and visitors not only see displays telling Elviss life story, but their visit concludes with the film featuring his greatest performances (82).

Hundreds of exhibits that have never left the walls of the famous Graceland mansion in Memphis, including a new showroom, are now available to all visitors. David Siegel, CEO of the Westgate resort, said that Elvis is synonymous with Las Vegas, so such an exhibition is a must (Harrison 83). The first wife of the singer Priscilla and their only daughter Lisa Marie attended the event among the guests of honor. This exhibition has become another hallmark of Las Vegas, strengthening its relationship with the great artist.

Even after the death of the singer, his music continues to connect hearts and worship love. Young people from all over the world rush to Las Vegas to get married in Graceland Wedding Chapel, where the ceremony is accompanied by the hits of Elvis Presley (Harrison 84). They invite actors dressed like Elvis, who will sing at the wedding and solemnly lead the bride to the groom. Las Vegas is considered one of the best places in the world to celebrate a wedding, mainly because of Elvis  romantic songs.

Conclusion

The influence of Elvis Presley on Las Vegas is a recognized fact, and his legacy in this city is incomparable in grandeur with any phenomenon of musical culture. Although the creativity of the singer influenced the whole world, Las Vegas remains a sacred place for every rock and roll lover. When the star faded, Vegas became the place where the «pilgrims» strive to touch the greatness of the era called Elvis Presley. The unprecedented popularity of the singer, his influence on several generations and the fact that his music radically changed the appearance of the whole city, suggests that the possibilities of art are almost limitless.

One of the highlights of Heritage Day is the preparation and sharing of traditional cuisine. Braaing (barbecuing) takes center stage as families and friends gather to enjoy delicious food, such as boerewors (sausage), sosaties (kebabs), and potjiekos (stew). The tantalizing aroma of spices fills the air, creating a sensory experience that evokes nostalgia and unity.

Cultural Dress and Attire

Heritage Day provides an opportunity for South Africans to proudly display their cultural heritage through traditional attire. People don their vibrant and intricately designed garments, reflecting the diverse cultural backgrounds of the country. From the colorful beads and intricate patterns of the Ndebele tribe to the vibrant shweshwe fabric of the Xhosa people, each traditional dress tells a unique story and represents a connection to ancestral roots.

Commemorating Heroes and Icons

Heritage Day also serves as a time to honor the heroes and icons who have contributed to South Africa’s rich cultural heritage. This includes acknowledging the struggles and achievements of individuals who played significant roles in the country’s history, such as Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, and Miriam Makeba. Through storytelling, performances, and speeches, their legacies are celebrated and passed down to future generations.

Fostering Unity and Cultural Exchange

Heritage Day plays a vital role in fostering unity and promoting cultural exchange in South Africa. It provides a platform for different communities to interact, learn from one another, and appreciate the shared values that underpin their diverse cultural expressions. By breaking down barriers and embracing cultural diversity, Heritage Day contributes to the social cohesion and nation-building efforts in South Africa.

Conclusion

Heritage Day is a vibrant celebration that showcases the cultural diversity and collective identity of South Africa. Through its cultural celebrations, traditional attire, commemoration of heroes, and emphasis on unity, this special day promotes a deeper understanding and appreciation for the rich heritage that defines the nation.

Essay on Nikola Tesla Impact on Society

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) the genius from Smiljan

Nikola Tesla was born on July 10, 1856, and was the fourth son of a priest named Milutin and his spouse named Georgina. Tesla had four siblings, three sisters, and one brother. His death was on January 7, 1943, at the New Yorker Hotel, in hotel room #3327.

Tesla’s ashes are kept in a spherical urn at the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade. All of Tesla’s belongings were gathered by Tesla’s nephew Kosanovic and moved into the Museum after Tesla’s demise.

Up until his sixth year, Tesla resided in Smiljan, where he finished his first year of elementary school. Tesla’s schooling in Rakovac was completed with the successful accomplishment of the high school finishing exam on July 24, 1873. Once he graduated from high school, Tesla came back with his parents to Gospić, where he developed cholera. Because of the disease, his dad did not direct him to study to become a priest, but instead to study technology. He escaped military authorities and accomplished to escape serving three years in the Austrian military.

In the beginning of 1880, Tesla left to study in Prague and the next year, got a job with the Puskas brothers in Budapest as a designer at the telegraph company. Later he labored as a team lead for the construction of a telephone exchange. Additionally on that team was Antal Szigety, a mechanic who later became his loyal friend. Following a brief period of illness, on foot with Antal Szigety in a park and reciting Goethe’s Faust, he had the idea of a rotating magnetic field. He illustrated diagrams in the sand with a stick and unexpectedly the belief in the operation of an electric motor powered by alternating current was very clear to him.

Tesla in the U.S.

Tesla moved to Strasbourg in 1883 and managed to manufacture his main induction electro-motor driven by alternating current. Next, he leaves for the U.S. In 1884, and found employment at Edison Machine Works in New York. Thereafter, In April 1887, the Tesla Electric Company was established. Tesla became a U.S. citizen on July 30, 1891. In late 1900, Morgan granted Tesla $ 150,000 for the manufacture of a global radio signal system and gained ownership of 51% of all radio-related charters. The next year, Tesla wished to transfer wireless power, and construction then started on a radio transmission station at Wardenclyffe in Long Island. However, since the financial shortage in 1906, progress on the wireless energy transfer development project entirely stopped. Yet, there remained an endless variety of inventions, discoveries, latest creations, and charters that Tesla made with incredible speed and quality.

Tesla’s extreme frequency currents are utilized in diathermy and personalization medication, and in chemistry to attain ozone. These currents generate luminescence-based light properties and deliver significantly more inexpensive light than a light bulb with a shiny wire. These currents have achieved the ultimate application in radio technology. Tesla demonstrated the radio-telegraphic transmitter and receiver in 1897, and the next year he built a boat, positioned in the marine near New York, and sailed it from the coastline. In the state of Colorado, he spread wireless signals from a distance of 1,000 km raised a broadcast, and obtained a tower. With this tower, Tesla switched to the father of radio technology. In Long Island, he raised a 57-meter tower and tested spreading large quantities of electrical energy for domestic and industrial necessities. Unidentified authors have demolished the tower.

Tesla’s Skills: testing the power limits

Tesla’s works were made through the use of intuition. His developments began with his visual image, which he then devoted to paper and, in a final step, practiced. He was the ruler of a magical world. His main encounter with these magical powers took place through his education in Graz and throughout his life, myths and legends about him were produced. Regarding the creation of mental images, occurrences led him to consider building a robot, alike the action of a human soul.

Tesla had a strange relationship and a huge love for animals, pigeons in particular. He nurtured and cared for pigeons, and his special relationship was with a pigeon with whom he connected extraordinarily.

In 1891, Tesla defined the universe as a kinetic system filled with energy, which can be reached from anywhere on our planet or from any other. Tesla learned the natural laws of the cosmos and came to new understanding and discoveries, but he believed that the time had not yet come to send his discoveries to the public. He suggested to a well-known artist, scientist, and writer Walter Russell to close their combined discoveries and conceal them so that no individual can find them in the following 1000 years, till humankind is mature enough to know them.

Nikola’s phobias and fears

He did not like feminine earrings, mainly pearls. The smell of camphor used to cause him to become uncomfortable. He calculated his steps while walking, and estimated the volume of food. In his lifetime, everything had to be divided by 3. Furthermore, he resided in room 3327 of the New Yorker Hotel, on the 33rd level. He didn’t desire to touch somebody else’s hair. Tesla used to say that in his need to reimburse his parents for the loss of his brother Danilo (few suspect Tesla of his death), he exposed Spartan discipline on himself. He trained his memory and his telepathy even when he was a kid. He had the capability for visual memory down to the last detail. When he was merely three years old, he learned about electricity thanks to his cat. When he pulled him by the tail, the cat’s back lit up. It was a new experience that would later cause Tesla to become a well-known inventor.

He had a theatrical attitude when he dined, he arrived at dinner in an evening suit, at exactly the right time, accompanied to his table, the butler’s service, and 12 towels to clean his hands and his dishes. He regularly drank a glass of hot milk.

Tesla achieved 15 honorary doctorates worldwide and spoke eight languages. In his honor, the magnetic induction unit is called Tesla. After building the Niagara Falls power plant, his childhood dream came true.

In addition to his other qualities, he had a sense of classiness, so he won numerous times the award for the best-dressed male on Fifth Avenue in New York. 

The Impact Of Legacy On Greek Mythology And The Daily Lives Of Citizens In Ancient Greece

There was a fear of leading an unfulfilling or pointless life, caused by the stories told about the gods becoming greedy, jealous, and showing their flaws, that motivated citizens in Ancient Greece to live generous and selfless lives. It was the legacy of heroes that showed civilians how to live their lives in order to have the most enjoyable afterlife or even gain immortality the way the gods had, with heroes as models for how to act no matter the circumstance and the wrongdoers’ fates as precaution for what will happen if one falls prey to one’s own fatal flaws. By examining the effects of legacy on the life of Greeks in ancient times, it is evident that the impact of one’s life on others will determine their afterlife, affecting one’s literal or figurative immortality, causing those with the goal of being seen with a favorable legacy to live selfless lives and those who do not heed to the warnings of the gods to lead greedy lives and end up with an infamous or even nonexistent legacy. Cronus’ paranoia and Persephone’s sacrifices are two examples that support the previously mentioned theme of legacy, the former being an example of how committing selfish crimes causes a negative legacy, and the latter proving how selfless acts in the present can create a desired legacy for the future.Zeus’s father, a titan named Cronus, swallowed all his children out of fear of being overthrown, the way he had overthrown his own father, giving Zeus the opportunity to create his legacy. Zeus, the only one of his siblings to not be taken by their father, poisoned Cronus and brought back his siblings, and he “and the other children of Cronus defeated the Titans.

There was a fear of leading an unfulfilling or pointless life, caused by the stories told about the gods becoming greedy, jealous, and showing their flaws, that motivated citizens in Ancient Greece to live generous and selfless lives. It was the legacy of heroes that showed civilians how to live their lives in order to have the most enjoyable afterlife or even gain immortality the way the gods had, with heroes as models for how to act no matter the circumstance and the wrongdoers’ fates as precaution for what will happen if one falls prey to one’s own fatal flaws.

Cronus’ paranoia and Persephone’s sacrifices are two examples that support the previously mentioned theme of legacy, the former being an example of how committing selfish crimes causes a negative legacy, and the latter proving how selfless acts in the present can create a desired legacy for the future.

Zeus’s father, a titan named Cronus, swallowed all his children out of fear of being overthrown, the way he had overthrown his own father, giving Zeus the opportunity to create his legacy. Zeus, the only one of his siblings to not be taken by their father, poisoned Cronus and brought back his siblings, and he “and the other children of Cronus defeated the Titans. Zeus then took Cronus’ place and ruled from his home on Mount Olympus” (Phillips). Zeus used his freedom to lead a successful uprising and redefined his “home on Mount Olympus”, consequently creating his legacy as the king of gods, as represented by his victory over the Titans. Zeus’ legacy was one of power and heroism, and his bravery led to him and his siblings ruling over realms, keeping order in the mortal world.

Although Zeus and his siblings control nearly every part of the world, Persephone made a legacy for herself that impacted nature itself; she created the seasons when Hades kidnapped Persephone and took her to the underworld with him, where he tricked her into eating pomegranate seeds and forcing her to stay in the underworld four months of the year. Demeter, Persephone’s mother, managed to persuade the gods to allow Persephone to come back to earth for eight months out of the year and “when Persephone left the earth, the flowers withered and the grain died, but when she returned, life blossomed anew” (Columbia University Press). The myth states that Persephone’s absence from Earth is what causes winter and when she returns, spring begins, proving that her legacy as a trapped and kidnapped girl created winter, and her legacy as a beloved member of society created warmth and prosperity in the months following winter. Because of Persephone’s legacy, we have seasons, and because she was selfless and stayed with Hades instead of disobeying him, her legacy is positive rather than demeaning.

The legacy of these gods and goddesses is what makes civilians strive to be their best selves. With an honorable and powerful legacy such as that of Zeus, or Persephone’s heartwarming legacy of staying loyal to both blood and oath, what people would look up to spark an interest in doing good and leading a life of helping others. By examining the effects of legacy on the life of Greeks in ancient times, it is evident that the impact of one’s life on others will determine their afterlife, affecting one’s literal or figurative immortality, causing those with the goal of being seen with a favorable legacy to live selfless lives and those who do not heed to the warnings of the gods to lead greedy lives and end up with an infamous or even nonexistent legacy.

Nelson Mandela’s Legacy Essay

Nelson Mandela is one of the most prolific names in the common era, but most don’t know why. Many high-profile people around the world praise him for the amazing works that he has done. The impact that he has had on his home country of South Africa and the affect that he put on other world leaders around the world. Fighting for what’s right and inspiring the world is he legacy that he will pass on. Nelson Mandela is a fighter for the world against tyranny during his life time, and for years ahead.

Nelson Mandela was a firm believer in freedom and equality for all, especially in his home country. Even after being told by the government multiple times that his plans would never work, he continued to push and fight for his cause. The apartheid was what he was fighting and that thought that he was the one to make change. “It was Mandela, even though his long and lonely incarceration, whose sheer, unwavering resolve to end the iniquities in South Africa assuaged the despair of millions of blacks who excised under the tyranny of apartheid” (Western Mail/Dec 2013). Even being in jail for years on end fighting for what he believed in. He continued to think of ways that he could fight the apartheid while in jail. He never gave up on his cause and continued to fight no matter what. Even with the government putting Nelson in jail and destroying his foundations that he created, he still refused to give up. “With the banning of the ANC, he was detained until 1961 when he went underground to lead a campaign for a new national convention. Umkhonto we Sizwe with the banning of the ANC, he was detained until 1961 when he went underground to lead a campaign for a new national convention. Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK), the military wing of the ANC, was born the same year. Under his leadership, it launched the campaign against the government and economic installations” (Western Mail/ Dec 2013). The government tried multiple times to destroy what he fought so hard to create, but it didn’t sway him in the slightest as he continued to create new organizations to push his ideals of equality. One thing that Mandela was that nothing he ever did was violent, as it would counter-act the entire ideals that he was trying to push peaceful change. “A legal and non-violent campaign for black rights were stymied by a government which was not only unresponsive but positively preferred to push the ANC into clandestine activity so that it could fragment and criminalize the movement” (4). It was a real and true struggle for the government to make him out like a terrible person as he was very peaceful.

Nelson Mandela’s story has spread beyond South Africa and even outside of the continent. Everyone from major world leaders to common people from the furthest parts of the world knew Nelson Mandela. He knew this and used it to his advantage. “Mandela Urged the graduation class of 700 to find time to examine if they have behaved well in a civilized world. He stressed “self-examination can lead to a better life”. Whether in public life or not, real leaders “identify those good men and women, Black or White, no matter their attitudes towards you, and find a way for them to contribute to society” (EBSCOhost). Mandela once he ‘retired’ continued to travel around the world talking to everyone about what he has done and how he wants everyone else to do the same as he did and fight for their rights as human beings. This furthered people’s knowledge and understanding of what he did and what he fought for. “As a student of history and a huge believer in the power of the human spirit, I know his life will continue to serve as a beacon for change, throughout South Africa and around the world” (6). Since Mandela has passed, his legacy has continued on as many people have taken the spirit that he’s presented to his country has been spread out through the world. Even high-class world leaders such as Bill Clinton have taken notice and has used Mandela as an influence in his life. “President Bill Clinton said: ‘More than any other human being, Madiba has been the great inspiration for the life I lead and the work I do’” (1). World leaders have mocked what Mandela did in South Africa in their individual nations to give everyone the best chance to give their people the best rights that they deserve.

Nelson Mandela’s death on the back end of 2013 was a tragedy for the country of South Africa and for the world, as we lost one of the most influential leaders that the world has ever seen. But he made sure to carry his legacy beyond his death by he set up multiple foundations in order for his works of justification and peace would continue. A prime example of this would be his children’s fund. “Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund, May 1995. This is for all South Africans, an unforgettable occasion. It is the realization of hopes and dreams that we have cherished over decades. The dreams of a South Africa which represents all South Africans. It is the beginning of a new era. We have moved from an era of pessimism, division, limited opportunities, turmoil and conflict” (Western Mail/ Dec 2013). Mandela even after his presidency of South Africa ended and retired. He still devoted his life too improving the lives of kids everywhere and even beyond his death. Furthermore, “Mandela’s understanding of the future was also an unequivocally multi-racial one. All would be liberated, not only blacks” (4). This shows how his plans for his foundation expand beyond continuing what he did in South Africa. Right before his death, Mandela was very active in the fight against HIV and AIDS in his home country. ‘46664’ is the campaign that Mandela launched to raise awareness for HIV/AIDS. This campaign is one of the most recent that Mandela started that was a hard fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic. And even with expanding his influence after his death in his own country, it expanded to the rest of the world. “It has life only as it is made and remade. We do not aspire to be custodians of legacy. We aspire rather to be makers of a living legacy” (5). Mandela knows that his time as a world leader is up, and he wants to inspire the next generation to be better than he was and continue to do good works around the world.

Nelson was an inspiration for his home country, and he was one of the most influential people in the world. With all of the major world leaders of the time looking at him for a guide on how to preserve basic human rights. His legacy will live on forever with his ideology of creating everyone equal in all walks of life.

Re-Evaluation of the Importance and Legacy of Oedipus Rex

Perpetuated misunderstandings of Oedipus Rex defines its importance and durability, specifically explicit in the interpretation by Sigmund Freud in his psychoanalytic book Interpretations of Dreams. The transition of authority from playwright to reader encourages projection and imposing of views and values onto the play and ultimately results in a poor analysis and understanding. These projections are derived from reader context and perspective, and thus this frequent re-evaluation of the importance and legacy of Oedipus Rex through continued analysis via different lenses is what ultimately ensures the play’s power and durability.

The continued reappraisal of Oedipus Rex has presented one major contentious argument: whether or not Oedipus Rex was centred around free-will or determinism. Sigmund Freud underlines his psychoanalysis with the presumption that it was Oedipus’ fate to fulfil the prophecy, and thus only acted (on his incestuous drive) because of a divine force. Freud finds that it is not the contrast between destiny and human will that engenders such enthrallment in the text, rather how his ignorant fulfiment of the prophecy carried out his repressed childhood compulsions to murder his father and direct his sexual impulses toward his mother.

This presentation endangers our understanding of Oedipus twofold.

First, it assumes that there is complete determinism responsible for the actions in the play. Freud argues that it is only by the encouragement through the oracle laying the curse that Oedipus fulfills his incestuous and violent childhood wishes, and the reader engagement is a result of our reflection of his wishes in our dreams. This is problematic as it does not consider the context and authority of the author to determine intent. Sophocles’ time period was categorized by Homeric heroes who have predetermined factors – such as dying on an appointed day – but this does not prevent them from being free agents, nor does it prevent their death being a result of a free action. The Messenger in the play, following Oedipus’ self-punishment clarifies this: qualifying the self-blinding as “self-chosen” and “voluntary”. A. W. Gomme in his More Essays in Greek History and Literature recognised, “the gods know the future, but they do not order it,” the results still relying on the free actions of the people involved instead of on divine order. Further, Sophocles’ text was not concerned with Oedipus’ fulfillment of the prophecy

Second, it assumes that we are entitled to derive psychological analysis from his actions. Freud has ignored a fundamental principle in critical analysis, “what is not mentioned in the play does not exist.” The playwright did not intend us to approach the psychological state and existent or non-existant repressed incestuous drives, and therefore this assertion must be discredited. Our analysis must be within the breadth of what is explicitly or inferrably stated in the play. Thus, Freud’s psychoanalytic background must not be the yardstick by which we understand Sophocles’ play.

Perspective, as it has done with Freud, distorts one’s understanding of a text and therefore is it untrustworthy to allow the reader authority over the text’s derived meaning.

But ultimately, this poor understanding and derived meaning result in the text carrying extraordinary power; no interpretation has approached consensus. This lack of consensus is paramount to the power of Oedipus Rex as a text, and ensures its durability. With every new age of philosophical thought and contextual projection, we see emerge a new and distinctive idea on the play and its hidden meaning. Because the authority of meaning ultimately lies with the author, and readers can therefore only provide conjecture, the story sustains its power and longevity.

Achievements of Margaret Thatcher: Analytical Essay

Margret Thatcher had led the Conservative government in office from the years 1979 to 1990 with many achievements and limitations. These can be seen through the way in how she led the country economically, politically and socially.

Margaret Thatcher had many economic policies. However one of her economical policies exceeded failure that which was Deregulation. Deregulation enabled hardly any interference from the Conservative government as it was removing the ‘red tape’ to make it easier for businesses to trade and grow. Therefore this approach was creating a lot of profit. This would coerce flexible labour which would make it easier to hire and fire workers. This would enable employees to spend their money on consumer goods and services which would allow businesses to receive profits. Profits would allow an expansion into the business in which the cycle of deregulation would start all over again. Financial deregulation let loose The City Of London and the financial markets from the tight grip which was held upon them by banks. Foreign banks could now serve as stockbrokers presenting that old lifestyles and traditions were out of the window to present London as a world financial mainstream. This just shows how Thatcher had made London become one of the financial capitals of the world which also became in competition with Wall Street. But although it shows that the economy had grown during Thatcher’s reign, productivity did not increase that much. Britain did not make that much as it was only a 2% increase as it can be seen here that even though Thatcher had been able to make Britain into a great financial country her policy had its limitations.

The Poll tax had one main goal and that was to ensure that councils were liable to their electors by making sure that everyone would pay their taxes. This act was introduced in order to amend the finances of the local government. The Conservative government believed that if everyone contributed to taxes it would be equal and also that the councils would think more wisely when it came to spending. This act was legislated in 1989 by the Conservative Government when it was introduced in Scotland. Nonetheless, the Poll tax had the outcome of being very unpopular. However, Thatcher had let the legislation be introduced into England and Wales the following year. The public criticised the government for this as the poll tax was unfair. Whether you were rich or whether you were living in a house feeding for six, everyone had to pay the same. So it was clear to see here that it was as though the rich were almost saving their money and those who lived there and were less financially stable had found it difficult. Students and those unemployed were taxed at 20% whereas the employed were at 100%. The unpopularity of the Poll tax led an Anti-Poll tax union to form in which they had protested that they would not pay the taxes. March 31st 1990 became the day where approximately 70,000-200,000 had protested against the Poll tax. 5000 people were injured and 340 were arrested which made it more distressingly harder for the Conservative government to persuade the people of Britain to pay. Consequently, this Poll tax showed the true colours of Margret Thatcher. Yes, she made changes to the economy as it grew greatly in finance however it was unpopular with the public. It was clear to see how she had no connection with ordinary people as when the election came upon Britain, popularity tolls began to decline for the Conservative government. This act had even brought party conflicts over the economic policy as Sir Geoffrey Howe, Thatcher’s longest-serving cabinet minister, resigned from the government. Michael Heseltine, who was Margret Thatcher’s successor had challenged her for the PM position. Thatcher had unfortunately lost the first ballot. Due to this, she resigned from government as it was her party that also made it clear to her that she would not win against him. This implied the downfall of her legacy. It is evident here that Margret Thatcher’s achievement was limited as she did not take into consideration the difficulty it would take to implement the Poll tax and how much opposition she would receive from it due to ignoring her office and the public.

Thatcher possessed the objective to turn Britain into a ‘property-owning democracy’. Accordingly, during 1980, the Housing act was introduced although council residency had always been in place it became more popular when the Conservative government reintroduced it. This enabled council renters to purchase their council residencies. In 1988, about 2 million people took the social gain to buy the homes they used to rent. This became a key policy in conservative government and also presented Thatcherism to be going well.

Analytical Essay on the Legacy of Marcus Garvey

Introduction

The late Marcus Mosiah Garvey was conceived on the excellent Caribbean island of Jamaica, in a little town of St’Ann bay to Marcus Mosiah Garvey senior who was a mason and Sarah Jane Richards a domestic worker, On August 17, 1887.

At the point when your devotees see that self-assurance, they will have confidence in you and tail you. Continuously stand up appropriate from your head and from your heart. On the off chance that your heart isn’t in it, it is a lie. On the off chance that your head isn’t in it, it is the unadulterated conclusion. Your head and heart must cooperate.

organizations at their pinnacle utilized around 1000 individuals in Harlem and frequently garvey delegated unpracticed individuals to run associations since he esteemed unwaveringness over competence.it is said that he didn’t take dissert exceptionally well and any indication of it regularly implied the presumed party was evacuated promptly. Thus, a portion of his organizations did not do, and a portion of his financial specialists was displeased including one who shot him whiles at unia workplaces.

Culture and climate

Climate portrays the common impression of the general group in a gathering or association and the conviction, qualities, and suspicions that give the person and set the benchmarks of conduct.

The outcome today is that the legend of Garvey works as a symbol of all-inclusive dark pride and attestation.
