Japan

It was graduation day, and the school auditorium was filled with mothers in kimonos dabbing away tears, their husbands snoozing beside them. Keiko Yoshida was on stage accepting a pile of high school diplomas from the principal on behalf of herself and the 41 other girls of Koto Girls High School’s 3-1 class, who stood watching from the floor.

Keiko carefully descended the stage stairs, put the diplomas on a table, and found her seat. All 42 students then sat in unison. They had just graduated.
As I watched one representative from each of the four graduating classes go up to the stage and accept her classmates’ diplomas, I grew increasingly disillusioned at the lack of individual recognition. In some respects, Japan and America are like jungle and ocean; there are different rules of existence in each environment.

“Many Westerners see Japanese group dependency as weak and conformist,” said my friend and fellow English teacher. Mr. Shibuya, when I took up the issue with him later. “And many Japanese see Western individualism as weak and egotistical.”

He was right. I had been taught that independence equals strength and that dependency equals weakness. Shibuya had learned that individuality equals weakness and strength is found in modesty&

Keiko had not even wanted to be on that stage. She was elected to accept the diplomas by a class vote.

When I asked one of Keiko’s classmates why she and her classmates were so unwilling to serve as class representative, she said that 3-1 was the strongest class at school and that she was happy graduating as part of it, without the onus of being the one seen on stage.

When I told Shibuya that at my high school graduation, each student accepted a diploma individually, he smiled and said, “Maybe many parents will sleep. Why does every student need to stick out?”

Korea

Korean interpersonal relationships operate on the principle of harmony. Maintaining a peaceful, comfortable atmosphere is more important that attaining immediate goals or telling the absolute truth. Koreans believe that to accomplish something while causing unhappiness or discomfort to individuals, is to accomplish nothing at all. If relationships are not kept harmonious, it is difficult, if not impossible to work toward any goal. All cultures value how its members feel emotionally, but few cultures value as much as Koreans do. To Koreans, to put greater emphasis on efficiency, honesty, or some other form of moral integrity is to be cold and unfeeling.

China

In China, once you began to “see” a person, you were locked in, to the exclusion of all others of the opposite sex. There were no degrees of involvement. Everyone knew that you were a couple, and that was a clear signal to all others. As a woman tied to a man in Shanghai, I was safe from the advances of others. Most women married the first person they dated, just as my mother had done, and as all my siblings eventually would. A female considered paired would be viewed as a loose woman if she developed friendships with other men. Even those who broke up with their boyfriends were looked down upon by friends and family if they dated again right away. It was a holdover from feudal society, when a woman whose husband died was expected to remain single all her life, regardless her age.
France

A friendly American is not necessarily an American friend. Though an American may be willing to have long, intimate conversations with a stranger, that doesn’t mean a dinner invitation is forthcoming.

India

Remember asking a twenty-year-old student in economics at Delhi University& if she loved the childhood friend her parents had decide she should marry. “That’s a very difficult question,” she answered. “I don’t know. This whole concept of love is very alien to us. We’re more practical. I don’t see stars, I don’t hear little bells. But he’s a very nice guy, and I think I’m going to enjoy spending my life with him. Is that love?” she shrugged.

In this particular scene, as is tradition, the defeated general (who is disgraced due to his defeat) is to take his own life.

Thudosius was born in Spain and claimed to be a native Spanish descendant of Trajan, thus mimicking the Trajan community had this additional ideological characteristic. Work on this forum probably began shortly after the victory over Goths in 386 , which appears to be the issue of relief in the Memorial Hall in conversation.

“Case of the Bad Boyfriend” 4th amendment paper

/in /by

Read the following case scenario:

Linda Rhodes and her boyfriend, Joe Marshall, were arrested as a result of a drug raid. Linda was making dinner for her children, who were with her in the kitchen, and Joe, who was in the living room, when the police, led by Sgt. Rick Rodgers, broke down her door. Linda owns the house. Joe has no ownership interest in the house but has been living there for the last year. The police found several ounces of cocaine, packaging material, scales, and a large amount of currency in small denominations in Linda and Joe’s bedroom. The cocaine was found in a dresser drawer, but the rest of the items were on the bed in plain view. Both Linda and Joe were charged with possession of cocaine with the intent to distribute it.

Joe Marshall has been arrested twice before for drug offenses. The first arrest was three years ago when he was charged with intent to sell, to which he pled guilty to possession and received five years’ probation. The second arrest was six months ago; however, the case was dropped for lack of evidence when the police evidence room lost the drugs.

Joe was also arrested three times for domestic violence: five years ago and three years ago against his former wife, and three months ago for beating Linda. All the cases were dropped when the victims refused to testify.

Linda has been arrested twice, eight and five years ago, for possession of marijuana. The first case was dropped when she identified her dealer. She pled guilty to the second charge and received one year of probation.

Linda works for a maid service, cleaning private homes. Joe has no known employment and claims to be a musician. Linda’s income from the maid service is the only known source of income for the household.

On the day in question, the police broke down the door without knocking or announcement. There was no other damage to the house, but the house was turned “upside down.” The police properly collected and tagged all of the evidence and immediately transferred it to the police evidence room. Both Joe and Linda claim to have no knowledge of the cocaine.

The police questioned Linda’s daughters, Sally (age 3) and Sara (age 9). Sally was crying and had no coherent statement about the incident. Sara told the police that she saw Joe with the “white powder” and that he said it was for a bubble bath and a surprise for mommy and that Sara should “keep it secret.”

An informant told Sgt. Rodgers about the cocaine. The informant’s name was not revealed, but he has provided reliable information in the past. The police were watching the house while waiting for a warrant. They claim they heard screams and decided to enter the house due to the knowledge that young children were in the house. The warrant was delivered one hour later.

Research Fourth Amendment cases involving searches, warrants, and exigent circumstances.

In your paper,

  • Define probable cause and its relationship to determining the legality of a search.
  • Explain the purpose and application of the exclusionary rule.
  • Identify whether Joe had legal standing to object to the search.
  • Describe whether the cash, packaging material, and scales admissible at trial if the police rely on exigent circumstances.
  • Explain whether the evidence of the cocaine is admissible at trial.
  • Identify whether the police had the right to go into the bedroom when relying on exigent circumstances.

4th Amendment Application, the “Case of the Bad Boyfriend” paper

  • Must be 750 to 1,000 words in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style 
  • Must include an introduction and conclusion paragraph. Your introduction paragraph needs to end with a clear thesis statement that indicates the purpose of your paper.

They should be about two pages typed minimum for each question. Make sure you answer each of the questions you have chosen fulling, using examples from the texts, Creating Black Americans and Major Problems in African American History. 

1. Discuss the change in African American society created by the Great Migration.  How did black people’s lives change socially, politically, economically and artistically (including the Harlem Renaissance)? Explain the difference between life in the North and the South for African Americans and the difficulties each group faced. What did each group do to improve their situation?

2. During the 20th century, two of the major strains of civil rights for African Americans included black separatism (Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, Black Panther Party) and racial integration (WEB DuBois, NAACP, Martin Luther King Jr., SCLC, SNCC).  Describe these two strains, including the major arguments for each.  Which do you feel has been more successful?  Were both ideas necessary in order to accomplish the goal of equal rights for African Americans?

3. How have African Americans used art, music and literature to express themselves in the 20th and 21st centuries?  Using examples from our texts what periods have spawned the most artistic creativity?  Why?  What periods do not seem to be as represented by artistic movements and why? Does art and music inspire political action or reflect it?
