Fashion as a Means of Empowerment for the Black Community in Britain
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the idea that fashion can be used and is used by the black community in Britain as a means of empowerment and self-identity. Although there has been an established black community in Britain for over 400 years, inequality still exists. Critics believe that this generation of blacks in Britain associated themselves more with their blackness than their parents’ heredity or that of Britain. The blacks in Britain have begun several forms of resistance one of which is reflected in their fashions and clothing which are similar to that of African Americans. Through the Black Fashion Collective, African Americans have established a unified black fashion industry which also does a great deal of support of African American non-profit services. Critics however do not know if establishing a black fashion industry in Britain will succeed or be considered “trendy” as was the black artists’ movement in the 1980s.

Filipino/Chinese Immigrant Experiences
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that examines Jade Snow Wong's Fifth Chinese Daughter and Carlos Bulosan's America is in the Heart. The writer argues that both texts express the author's impressions of America and the manner in which being "American" expresses itself in their lives. As a second generation Chinese-American, Wong's middle class background is very different from the abject poverty of Bulosan's Filipino background. Nevertheless, an examination of these two autobiographical accounts demonstrates how they each come to share a faith in the American Dream that offers them satisfaction and hope for the future. No additional sources cited.

Globalization has Created Two Worlds, Not One
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page
report discusses the idea that globalization at the start of the
21st century has proven itself to actually have created two
worlds rather than one. What has also shown itself as
commonplace is the fact that the “haves” have significantly more
than the “have nots” and the gap that has always existed between
the two has widened into a nearly impassable canyon. While
economic globalization has had an impact on people around the
world so has the globalization of new ways of thinking,
producing, and traveling. The end results have not always been
positive. Nonetheless, great potential still exists and
globalization is integrated will determine the future of
humanity. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Haitian Immigrants in the United States
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report
discusses the experiences of Haitians that have immigrated to the
United States. The struggles faced by immigrants has always been
one requiring a great deal of personal determination in the midst
of hardship, whether it was the Irish and Italians at the start
of the 20th century or the Central Americans and Haitians in the
last decades of the century. However, Haitians have also had to
deal with more bigotry and racial discrimination than any of the
fair-skinned immigrants of Europe. In addition, they have had to
endure political controversy threatening their ability of
remaining in the U.S. In many ways, they have had to deal with
far greater problems than virtually any other immigrant
population. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
