These two dominating groups responded in anger and fear, with police saying that the rap group’s lyrics are provocative, intimidating, and belittling women. They ignore the fact that N.W.A is expressing the realities of violence and racism by police that they and others from Compton experience every day. In many occasions where they perform, police would encircle them and finish the concert with arrests while others riot around the city. As the story progressed, social structural factors are what drives N.W.A to create songs like “F the Police” and “Straight Outta Compton” because their surrounding circumstances are out of their control. Their mentality, values, and beliefs are affected by the harsh reality of life in Compton, from gang violence to racism; this way of life is set for them and opportunities such as getting a good education is far from what they see for themselves.

4.1.1 Against Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party The year 1998 was tagged with turmoil in Australia because at that time Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party exerted intensive influence on Australian politics with its populist and conservative ideology. The One Nation Part was formed in 1997 by Pauline Hanson, David Oldfield and David Ettridge.

Maria can be seen as a threat to Metropolis, as Fredersen, Freder’s father and the Master of Metropolis, is appalled of her tactics. When Maria first appeared to Freder, she has a group of ragged children along with her, showing Freder the absolute pain and suffering the working class is dealing with. Later on in the movie, Fredersen travels with Rotwang to the catacombs to see Maria preach to the workers of Metropolis. Huyssen believes that Fredersen is upset with the fact he did not know of the existence of the catacombs and shows something has escaped his control. In term, Fredersen wishes the likeness of the robot of which Rotwang constructed to look like Maria.

Rudd was defeated during that election with Labor only winning two seats in the state of Queensland. Rudd stood again in 1998, this time winning against Liberal Graeme McDougall.

The current Liberal Prime-Minster, Malcolm Turnball along with other pre-existing governments have contributed and focused on maintaining a safe Australian boarder. Independent Senator Pauline Hanson says, “Australians in general are more fearful4” when she stated, “Muslims were more prominent in organised crime. And the unemployment rate, the prison population and organised crime rates were higher amongst Muslim populations.4” perhaps if this continues to be an ongoing problem it may need to be considered that we as a nation need to decide to

Both parties use the power of speech in the wrong way, and it is hard to judge which is morally worse. People started to question the value of free speech, as it brought unfairness and hurt instead of equality and justice to people. In "Hate speech" and "There 's No Such Thing as Free Speech, and It 's a Good Thing, Too," Robin Lakoff and Stanley Fish discuss how it 's necessary to have a restriction on free speech to so that the power of speech can be beneficial to the society.

Although tension existed in the face of Bureau efforts to disrupt both groups, the FBI enacted on the power struggle that emerged between Fred Hampton of the BPP and Jeff Forte of the Blackstone Rangers. Memorandums sent between the Chicago Field Office to headquarters in Washington, DC saw the possibility of violence between the Panthers and the Rangers as “second nature” to them; showing that, if given the ‘right direction’, violence would escalate to a point where targets of the FBI would be assassinated or the groups would be destabilized by the events. The efforts by the FBI to create violence between the BPP and the Rangers was combined with a sowing of dissension within the ranks of the BPP as to destroy the effective leadership of Hampton. Together, the FBI created a sense of mistrust that contributed a decline in membership, but Hampton still grew in prominence and rank in the Black Panthers, who before his assassination, was BPP Chief of Staff.

So the government began to encourage more people from overseas to come and live in Australia, which lead to the largest European migration program that the country has ever experienced.

Australia has many and varied links to the world. These stem from the cultural ties the Australians have with other nations because of colonisation, followed by the political links Australia has gained because of the impact of settlement . The cultural ties Australians have with Great Britain biggest is definitely not the strongest in a united relationship but did leave quite an impact on those at the time.
