Women As News Anchors
3553 Words - 13 Pages.... has it
been and still is difficult for women? What are the expectations of women in
the field, as opposed to the expectations of men?
I am interested in this topic because I once aspired to become a
television broadcaster. I still have inspiration in me, but not quite as much
due to the negative and discouraging aspects I have heard about in classes and
in the media. I am not sure that I could be happy in a career such as this, and
I know there are great difficulties in "making it" in this profession. I have

it seems like it takes a special kind of passion to want to keep up in the
busines ....

Racial Discrimination And Its Effect On Our Society
1599 Words - 6 Pages.... group or category. Racial discrimination has been, and still is a huge problem, with many attempts for solutions.
Imagine not knowing the time because nobody will tell you. Why won't they tell you the time, or spare you some change? Because your different skin.

You can help stop this; all you have to do is try to accept different ethnic people as you do anyone else. If you can’t, you don’t have to express it, keep it to yourself. If you hear somebody saying something about somebody else, all you have to do is listen; they are just as equal as you are. If you do it, pretty ....

1715 Words - 7 Pages.... that we need to focus on in order to wipe out drugs
from our lives.
In fact, our focus is strongly on punishing drug users, yet
applying laws against committed drug crimes has not proven to be an effective
solution. Drugs are still produced and distributed everywhere, and are taken by
many. -- despite
Obviously our focus is mid-directed. Because all types of people use
illegal substances, pinpointing one specific group to “bust” is not effective.

drugs tend to be, and seek to close them down as an effort to decrease the
overall use of drugs.
This has proved to be an ineffective tech ....

Social Acceptance Of Homosexual Marriages
321 Words - 2 Pages.... marriages are not binding, thus causing difficulty in
adopting or fostering children. Due to society it is often difficult to birth a
child, as well, without a "husband" or a "father" in a mother's life. Therefore,
those who have children, via pregnancy, foster, or adoption have conquered a
very difficult task.
So, is this family an abnormal family because there are no opposite sex parents.
Or is it a normal family because of the love its' members share? Can we say
what it is that makes a family. Perhaps, if we can answer these questions, we
will find the solutions we need to fulfill the doubts in our minds.
Should we ever condemn someone for loving? When we judg ....

Culture Awareness
1488 Words - 6 Pages.... says I'm not in an article on multicultural awareness. I
for one take pride in our nation's history in regard to minorities.
Minority groups founded this nation. The religious groups who felt the
pressure of persecution in their homelands came here to begin new lives,
and eventually a new nation. The ethnic groups that came in a great flood
of immigrants came to escape the economic oppression of their homelands.
Those groups, too, found a way to become part of the American experience.
They didn't need, nor did they demand, any laws requiring acceptance into
society. Kindness, tolerance and respect are things that can only be earned,
not handed down by legislative decr ....

Whatever he eats, drinks, or wears come from dumpsters. The unfortunate
circumstances that led to his situation occur to millions of people
throughout the country. The growing problem of homelessness is worsened by
the welfare programs that offer subsistence rather than opportunities, or
incentives (Long 23). Federal expenditures for public and private low-cost
housing have been cut from $30 billion, in 1981, to $7 billion in 1987, and
