Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed to live under their own laws and in freedom, there

are three courses for those who wish to hold them: the first is to ruin them, the next is to reside there in person, the third is to permit them to live under their own laws, drawing a tribute, and establishing within it an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you. Because such a government, being created by the prince, knows that it cannot stand without his friendship and interest, and does its utmost to support him; and therefore he who would keep a city accustomed to freedom will hold it more easily by the means of its own citizens than in any other way.

Identify a social institution in the movie. Select a Disney movie. Use one of the three major sociological frameworks such as th
azamat

a) The Disney movie selected for analysis is Cinderella.

b) The social institution in such movie is marriage.

c) Sociological perspective: Feminism.

Here is the analysis:

  • In Disney's Cinderella, feminism, that is, the thought of equality between sexes, is not apparent. This approach takes roots in the movie's idea of a poor girl with a miserable life who dreams about a prince who marries her and takes her to his kingdom for "salvation" and, on the other hand, the prince falls in love with her only because she is pretty. But nowadays, feminism would ask: why does she need a prince to thrive in life when she is plenty and has plenty to make the effort to achieve her own progress?
  • Another point for discussion is how do they fall in love in the first place: they barely know each other but, yeah, they are in love. So, the movie shows a "superficial love", since if Cinderella wasn't pretty, he would never love her back.
  • Thus, the movie encourages little girls to aspire to find the other significant one and get married with a "him", instead of showing girls how to overcome themselves and afterwards, falling in love, because only if you fall in love with yourself, you can fall for someone else.

Question: How does Dr.King show awareness of and respect for his intended audience of clergymen?
Rama09 [41]

1. Answer:

Dr. King shows respect and optimistic approach towards the Church. He does not resolve to arguments limiting his moral virtues. He tires to explain his narrative to different religious organizations by reminding them of their responsibility. He specially talks about Christian Church.

<em>He also rebukes over the behavior of clergy men and reminds them how they are compromising their Christian mission. He makes several arguments by explaining to them how early Christians risked their lives and made the world a better place to live in. </em>

He also warns the Church that one day they will be held accountable for not taking any actions against such brutality.

2. Answer:

Martin Luther King is Dr King in Birmingham Jail. He was in Birmingham to protest against the cruel practices and behaviors adopted towards the black people.

The court of that time had asked Martin Luther King along with other people not to protest.

<u>Birmingham was a tough place for black people to live in hence they protested against it and were sent to jail for not obeying the orders of the court.</u>

3. Answer:

This revolutionary letter was written by Martin Luther King. He wrote this letter to generate awareness about the crimes committed by white people in regards to the black people of the society.  

He wanted to show support to non-violent resistance exhibited by his fellow black men.

He wanted to consolidate with them and remind others of the repercussion of such injustices.

He also explained how at times it is necessary to break unjust laws for the betterment of society.

4. Answer:

He used <em>emancipation and proclamation</em> in his letter. Due to Martin Luther King's efforts, he was highly appreciated by the audience hence this gave him a slight edge to convey his message, without any hindrance to the general public.  

<u>He defines justice and morality in his letter. He also mentions how strong black people are and with or without the help of white people they can succeed. He clarifies that black people are working in the light of ideals set by the secular state of America and Divine power.</u>
