Lines 349-359 why might this part of Kings speech be considered controversial

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The excerpt that you are mentioning, between lines 349 and 359 belongs to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr´s speech "Beyond Vietnam", which he delivered to the world in 1967. This entire speech came to people in America almost like a bucketfull of cold water at the height of heat due to the Vietnam War, mostly because it portrayed the rising feelings of rejection towards the war on the side of the American people, but also because it brought people to realize why America had been wrong in pursuing this war.

Essentially, while Dr. King expounds on the need for America, and the world at large, to oppose Communism, and rather fight to expand, and improve, democracy, Dr. King also exposes Americans to a truly harsh reality. The first, that America has forgotten what it is like to fight for what its right: for justice and liberty, for love, rather than a simple desire to defeat the Communist threat. But between lines 349 and 359, particularly, Dr. King starts calling America out on its forgetfullness of what is right, of doing things for the right reasons and expounds that, due to success, America has forgotten a lot of the ideals that made her such an important nation, and a front against Communism. In fact, it seems that Dr. King almost reminds people that while America grew comfortable in her own good times, and initiated the Vietnam War simply to repel a system that questioned their desire for money, comfort, and welfare, it seemed as if Communism had turned out to be the system that fought for the welfare of the poor, the oppressed. He states that in his speech, almost like a slap, given that up to that point, the whole reason for America fighting in Vietnam had been to repel, and protect, other nations from the evil spread of Communism. Dr. King shows America another reality, and almost places Communism as an example, in those lines only, of what America should be doing.

This is why these particular lines might have caused a lot of controversy, even amongst Dr. King´s own followers.

allen says people who support burners might note an irony in my argument explain what allen means using details from the editori

Alex73 [517]

The dissenters in the flag-burning case and their supporters might at this juncture note an irony in my argument. My point is that freedom of conscience and expression is at the core of our self-conception and that commitment to it requires the rejection of official dogma. But how is that admittedly dogmatic belief different from any other dogma, such as the one inferring that freedom of expression stops at the border of the flag?

The crucial distinction is that the commitment to freedom of conscience and expression states the simplest and least self-contradictory principle that seems to capture our aspirations. Any other principle is hopelessly at odds with our commitment to freedom of conscience. The controversy surrounding the flag-burning case makes the case well.

The controversy will rage precisely because burning the flag is such a powerful form of communication. Were it not, who would care? Thus were we to embrace a prohibiton on such communication, we would be saying that the 1st Amendment protects expression only when no one is offended. That would mean that this aspect of the 1st Amendment would be of virtually no consequence. It would protect a person only when no protection was needed. Thus, we do have one official dogma-each American may think and express anything he wants. The exception is expression that involves the risk of injury to others and the destruction of someone else`s property. Neither was present in this case.

Read an excerpt from an analysis of Act III of Hamlet.

mylen [45]

Answer:

Things are not always what they seem.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet" tells the revenge story of how a murdered king's son avenged the death of his father at the hands of his own uncle. King Claudius had not only murdered of his brother for the throne, but also took his wife as his own.

The characters of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were the two childhood friends of prince Hamlet. At first, they were loyal to him and acted for him, but in later scenes, we see them shift their loyalty to King Claudius. They began to be employed as spies by Claudius, for when he suspects Hamlet of doing things to hurt him.

In Act III scene iii, we find a disturbed Claudius after seeing the 'performance play' arranged by Hamlet. The obedience of Rosencrantz and Guilderstern in following Claudius' orders to send Hamlet away from him is a reflection of their seeming ignorance about what the real situation is. They are blindly following orders. Through these two characters, Shakespeare develops the theme of ignorance on their part, that things are not always what they seem to be shown.

How do we know cash facilitates crime ?

Ann [662]

Answer:

Explanation:

Despite the continuously changing face of crime and the development of cybercrime, the majority of money laundering techniques discovered by law enforcement are still conventional. While cash is steadily losing favor with consumers, it is still one of the primary ways used to launder the profits of crime, according to Europol's newest strategic analysis, 'Why is cash still king?'

Almost all sorts of crime utilize cash to aid money laundering at some point, not only classic crimes that create cash gains, but also dangers posed by emerging technologies such as virtual currencies, where currency is employed as a tool to conceal the unlawful origin of revenues.

In the EU, the use of cash is the most common cause for suspicious transaction reports in the financial system, accounting for almost 30% of all reports. Around a third of all inputs to Europol in the area of money laundering are reports on questionable physical currency transactions.

Despite a small drop in the usage of cash for payments in the EU, demand for large denomination notes not typically used for payments, such as the EUR 500 note, has remained stable. Over 30% of the value of all banknotes in circulation is represented by the EUR 500 note alone (1). This raises issues about why they're being used and if they're tied to illegal activities, both of which should be investigated further.

Linking funds to criminal activity continues to be a difficult task for law enforcement. "Criminals' use of cash continues to be one of the most important impediments to effective investigations and conviction," says Europol Director Rob Wainwright. "It's a danger that hasn't gotten enough international attention or legislative responses." Criminals frequently exploit a fragmented enforcement strategy at national and international levels, as well as varied regulatory regimes throughout EU Member States, by adapting their techniques and routes to take advantage of these gaps. If we are to combat these illegal activities, we must boost our efforts to improve international collaboration and information sharing, as well as build a more harmonised policy among EU Member States regarding cash flows inside the EU."
