Candidates Who Can Help Take Back the House : Democrats in six races in New York and New Jersey can see their party restore good sense in Congress. The New York Times Editorial Board. Oct. 20, 2018

The editorial piece was written by the editorial board of the New York Times on October 20th, 2018.

It deals with the upcoming mid-term elections in America. The editors take a very strong position against the Trump Administration as the very title of the editorial makes clear, implying that good sense has been lost in congress and, therefore, must be restored.

Their criticism about the Trump government is strong and shared by many Americans, but in they refrain from using data or some specific facts and support their position on a generic feeling based platform that may be effective only to those that agree with them.

However, the specific point of the article - about the possibilities of gaining important seats in congress - is well substantiated with strategic voting discussions and statistics.

The editor appeal to readers' emotion by implying things can be changed if they can get some of the seats and rally for democrats to vote in mass.

That subject is widely discussed in the media having different perspectives taken into account. for CNN and MSNBC mainly, the articles touches on a very critical point and their commentators strongly agree with the content. Fox news take a different approach, having some of their specialist panels classifying such editorial piece as wishful thinking without any chance to occur.

The interviews with the public shows a strong polarisation, with masses of people rallying in favour of their party, each TV channel chooses to emphasise their own perspective by painting their supporters as representatives of the democratic system whereas those that disagree with them are seen like potential threats to democracy.

It is possible to say that on discussing politics in America an unbiased position is almost impossible to be found. It is like pundits, reporters and the media in general have decided to let emotions run high in detrimental of a reasonable discussion about the facts.

Both sides make strong and baseless generalisations, adopting a Manichean perspective of "them against us".

Can someone give me a summary over the book “Rebels Like is” by Liz Reinhardt.

tatiyna

Answer:“It’s not like I never thought about being mixed race. I guess it was just that, in Brooklyn, everyone was competing to be exotic or surprising. By comparison, I was boring, seriously. Really boring.”

Culture shock knocks city girl Agnes “Nes” Murphy-Pujols off-kilter when she’s transplanted mid–senior year from Brooklyn to a small Southern town after her mother’s relationship with a coworker self-destructs. On top of the move, Nes is nursing a broken heart and severe homesickness, so her plan is simple: keep her head down, graduate and get out. Too bad that flies out the window on day one, when she opens her smart mouth and pits herself against the school’s reigning belle and the principal.

Her rebellious streak attracts the attention of local golden boy Doyle Rahn, who teaches Nes the ropes at Ebenezer. As her friendship with Doyle sizzles into something more, Nes discovers the town she’s learning to like has an insidious undercurrent of racism. The color of her skin was never something she thought about in Brooklyn, but after a frightening traffic stop on an isolated road, Nes starts to see signs everywhere—including at her own high school where, she learns, they hold proms. Two of them. One black, one white.

Nes and Doyle band together with a ragtag team of classmates to plan an alternate prom. But when a lit cross is left burning in Nes’s yard, the alterna-prommers realize that bucking tradition comes at a price. Maybe, though, that makes taking a stand more important than anything.

In ACT I SCENE I Of ROMEO & JULIET, what instance best shows Benvolio as a peacekeeper who doesn't like fighting?

pantera1 [17]

Answer: A. His response to the servants fighting in the beginning of the play

Explanation:

<em>Servants of the Capulet family start a fight with Montague family servants. Benvolio, a Montague, draws his sword and attempts to break up the fight. Tybalt, a Capulet, sees the drawn sword of Benvolio. Tybalt draws his sword and, after Benvolio tries to avoid conflict, Tybalt attacks. The fight escalates. Montague and Capulet enter the scene. The Prince enters and commands the fight to end. Frustrated with the family feud, the Prince declares a death sentence on anybody who starts more trouble.</em>

<em><u></u></em>

<em><u>BENVOLIO</u></em>

<em>Part, fools! Put up your swords; you know not what you do.</em>

Enter TYBALT

<em><u>TYBALT</u></em>

<em>What, art thou drawn among these heartless hinds°?</em>

<em>Turn thee, Benvolio, look upon thy death.</em>

<em></em>

<em><u>BENVOLIO</u></em>

<em>I do but keep the peace. Put up thy sword</em>

<em>Or manage it to part these men with me.</em>

...

Benvolio then discusses the quarrel with Tybalt with his uncle (Romeo's father):

<em><u>MONTAGUE</u></em>

<em>Who set this ancient quarrel new abroach?[11]</em>

<em>Speak, nephew. Were you here when it began?</em>

<em />

<em><u>BENVOLIO</u></em>

<em>Here were the servants of your adversary</em>

<em>And yours, close fighting ere° I did approach.</em>

<em>I drew to part them; in the instant came</em>

<em>The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepared,</em>

<em>Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears,</em>

<em>He swung about its head and cut the winds,</em>

<em>Which, nothing hurt at all, hissed it in scorn.</em>

<em>While we were interchanging thrusts and blows</em>

<em>Came more and more who fought on part and part,</em>

<em>Til the prince came, who parted either part.</em>
