ExperimentationExperimentationThere are many types of experimentation such as human, and animal experimentation. People experiment on animals because they can’t say anything. I say this is animal abuse but there are debates that say otherwise.

GenocideGenocide

HealthHealthWar and infrastructure can threaten ones’ health. The people who live in that location where war occurs will have problems with their health because of the destruction of the environment. There is basically no where else to go because it is a war zone. Diseases start occurring because people are forced to drink bad water in such an environment.

Justice is all about fairness and equality. We have wars, issues with race and gender, and mainly conflict with one another. There is always a right and a wrong.

UnderlingUnderling

You realize you are an underling when you are inferior to someone by following their lead. As such, I am an underling to my teacher because she teaches this course and I absorb the knowledge she brings forth for her students.

ViolenceViolence

WomenWomenI chose wonder woman as an example of women because women are portrayed in many categories and not every women are the same. Women come from many different race/ethnicities. Many people think about the stereotypes of women as weak, and emotional but that isn’t entirely true.

X-MenX-Men

X-men was one of the science fiction novels out there broadcasted on television when I was a kid. It was interesting to watch.

Youth FictionYouth Fiction

Holes was the first youth fiction novel I read when I was young. It was a book that got me into reading more other youth fictions.
