Richard Rodriguez
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. Richard Rodriguez did not always aspire to hold English degrees and a doctorate in English Renaissance literature; in fact, until late in his childhood, he vocabulary barely reflected fifty words of English. His remarkable assimilation into the American patchwork sheds light on just how difficult it is for minorities to adapt to an entirely disparate culture – that is, unless, one is strong of mind and determination like Rodriguez. Because of his own socially limited background, the accomplished essayist stands as an icon for those whose own lives reflect his early struggles with cultural identity in America. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

School Violence Prevention Program
[ send me this paper ]
16 pages in length. Easy access to guns within the family unit is a primary instigator of juvenile violence against other juveniles, say some experts. Coupled with the surge of gang activity in recent years, these factors have greatly attributed to the degradation of childhood morals. Gang mentality is that of looking out for number one by whatever means necessary in order to carry out that pledge. Such groups, formed mostly of undisciplined, morally-deprived and angry young people, actually provide the wayward child with a sense of power and belonging, something they do not receive from within their own family structures. Yet this type of extended family does not nurture goodness or benevolence; rather, it encourages violence and mayhem upon the general public. Enter the notion of peer mediation. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
