Read the passage from “The Beginnings of the Maasai.” Our relationship with Enkai is essential to the tribe. Enkai is neither ma

le nor female. The sky god is powerful, but can change from nurturing to vengeful depending on our behavior. Sometimes Enkai is Enkai Narok, the Black God, happy with us and blanketing the sky with dark clouds that pour out rain to nourish the plains. When angry, though, Enkai becomes Enkai Nonyokie—the Red God. In these times, the sun grows incredibly hot until the earth dries up and becomes barren. Because of this, we work to keep Enkai happy. Which information from this passage about Enkai is most important to include in a summary of the overall story?

Answer:

The Maasai's relationship with Enkai is crucial and important to them.

Explanation:

The passage from “The Beginnings of the Maasai” details how important the Enkai is to the tribe. His happiness is the what the tribe works for, hoping never to make him angry. For his mood changes dictate how the weather and climates change, for the better or worse of the people. Ever the powerful god, his mood dictates his attitude to the people. And when he is angry, he makes the sun so "<em>hot until the earth dries up and becomes barren</em>", but when he is happy, he "<em>blanket(s) the sky with dark clouds that pour out rain to nourish the plains</em>". Therefore, when writing a summary of the story, it will be essential to include the significance of the Maasai tribe's relationship with Enkai, which is essential to the tribe's existence.

Do you personally believe that schools kill creativity?
Mrrafil [7]

I believe that it does uniform-wise. Using uniforms does help with the school to limit out who is supposed to be there or not, but the thing is, everyone is the same. Schools are setting us up for being factory workers, making us sit in straight rows and stand in lines. Making us do this and that, when in reality none of us want to be some silly factory worker. We want to be artists, scientists, actors, etc. There are clubs for that but it is limited to how good people are or how well they do in something. Back to the clothing, what about people who want to be designers one day? Aren't they going to want to practice what they love? They can't even show what they want to show because of school! Oh well, that's just how it is.

Summarize FDR's press release. Then, answer the following questions:
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are several factors involved in the answer to this. It is mind blowing to say the least.

1. Imagine yourself listening to the news. Would you be interested in this one press release. If you say yes, then you have to consider Vietnam very carefully. Vietnam was on the news night after night. People were glued to their TVs to see what atrocities were being dug up. Not only that, but American body bags arrive in every state in the Union. Still there was a massive split in the country for the war and against it. Young people refused to go to there because they knew their chances of being unscathed was small. Now here's the question. Yes FDR made his position very clear, but who read it? Why would they care, when mother's wept openly about their sons dying in the Pacific and in Europe. That's what people were concerned about. And avenging Pearl Harbor was upmost in their mind.

2. I only have time for one more point. Think about anti Semitism. Do you think America and any part of Europe was free of it? I propose not. Sir Martin Gilbert was the master historian of the Holocaust. He wrote a book entirely about those who helped the Jewish people. He knew of 10000 different cases including 2 dogs one of whom was shot because he would not attack Jewish refugees. Many of the 10000 refused to talk about their experiences during the war because they said openly that they would be attacked for helping helping Jews. Many books have been written about the Holocaust and its aftermath and even into this century we have people that have denied it ever happened. I don't know what to tell you to read. If you are a college student, prowl around in your library or search for the Holocaust on the internet. It's a very depressing subject. You'll likely come across other Holocausts. It's hard to believe sometimes, that we are human, and not beasts.
