Answer and Explanation:
After reading the essay "Names nombres" written by J. Alvarez, we can learn how difficult it is for a family of Spanish origin to maintain their names and traditions within a totally different culture like that of the USA, especially when that family comes from a country considered to be "third world", seen as inferior and often shameful and devalued. This affected the way Alvarez saw her own identity, associated with her and her family names. These names were pronounced so differently by the Americans, it seemed that they were erasing the Latin origin of it and imposing an Americanized and more "normal" version.
In this essay, Alvarez approaches her youth as a Latin immigrant in the USA. It shows how difficult it is to live between two cultures and how it affects various elements in people's lives.

Destroying food resources can threaten entire populations as they may starve to death while weapons cannot regularly do so. For instance, Germany could have implemented food destruction policies in WWII that would have killed 20 million Russians and the starvation of Biafra by the Nigerian government during the Biafran war killed many times more Biafrans by the armed conflict did.
