293 Words2 Pages

Individual Book Report The title of my book is called Incarceron The author of this book is Catherine Fisher The name of my main character is Finn the Starseer. The author didn’t really but a description of Finn, only that he has really dirty hair and doesn’t take care of himself as well as his oathbrother Keiro, who has a thirst for blood.

  • Summary Of The Book 'Felon' By Michelle Alexander

    342 Words  | 2 Pages

    After learning about the privileges felons lose and reading this section in Michelle Alexander’s book, I cannot imagine what I would do if I were to be convicted and labelled a felon. Once being released, I would basically have to start all over and possibly, never get back to where I was at when I was first found guilty.

Being that I am now a felon, I know I would not be able to return to my apartment, so I would have no choice but to rely on my parents for a place to live. I know, without a doubt, they would help me in any situation.

They examined the amount of time women are willing/can work, education, and having children, all factors that can change employment rates for these racial/ethnic groups.

The authors recognize intersectionality by stating that often employment offers benefits that sometimes cannot be obtainable any other way and the benefits go to women who are already

    The spirit of abstraction is the practice of conceiving of people as functions rather than human beings.

It reflects a system that has diverged widely from the ideals of seeking justice propounded centuries ago in a far more innocent era. Now, it appears, justice goes to the highest bidder and the innocent can perhaps be marked for life as guilty. It's about two regular people who successfully con an entire courtroom out of random justice.
