[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The Tuskegee Airmen represented a very special collection of soldiers during World War II; determined to volunteer as the first black airmen in United States military history, this unique assemblage was comprised of men from all over the country. One might readily surmise that the pride and dedication they put forth was at least twice that of their white counterparts, inasmuch as they knew the expectations placed upon them would be scrutinized every step of the way, since many others believed the black men were deficit in intelligence, skill, courage and patriotism.

Huck Finn is Not a Racist Book
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that argues that Huck Finn is not a racist book. It has become a perennial issue that books, even classics, that contain “’racially offensive’” words should be banned from high school curricula and Mark Twain’s classic Huckleberry Finn is always a target of such campaigns (Bertin 18). The irony in this situation is the idea that Mark Twain’s novel could be viewed as anything other than a humanistic classic that stands up for the rights of individuals, particularly blacks, in the face of a societal context that legitimized and tolerated gross racial injustice. Examination of Twain’s classic shows that it is most definitively not racist, but is rather a manifesto against racism, injustice and the glorification of the past. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

I May Not Get There with You: The True Martin Luther King Jr.
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page review of the book by Michael Eric Dyson. Discusses Dyson's portrayal of Martin Luther King Jr's life and accomplishments. Delineates the theme and purpose of the book, its significant findings, conclusions, and the importance of Dyson's sources. Concludes that the author sometimes goes overboard in excusing the more reprehensible of King's actions such as the plagiarizing of much of his academic writing, cheating on his wife, and succumbing to sexism. While it is easy enough to accept Dyson's premise that King's accomplishments outweigh his indiscretions, Dyson takes the stance that King's more reprehensible actions are not his fault but a circumstance of his time, a fault of government and white society. Never-the-less, "I May Not Get There with You: The True Martin Luther King Jr." is certainly worth reading to get an alternate view of a man we all thought we knew but whose true complexities far outweigh our memories of him.
