In the 1970s, domestic violence came into view when feminist groups revealed the complicity in women to be compliant, even with men lifting their hand against them. Women who were maltreated were given refuge under the women’s movement, while health and social workers were being trained on how to handle women who were maltreated. By the 1980s, international organizations had declarations defining violence against women and children as “an unacceptable violation of human rights [and] a source of tragic consequences” (Romito, 2008, p.1). This, however, may have proven to be fragile, especially in certain parts of Europe wherein ...

After hearing such negative sexist talk directed towards a colleague, I would take several measures aimed at ensuring that the perpetrators of the act know that their actions are wrong and should not be repeated. I would also put effort in supporting Jim, who in this case is the victim, encouraging him and urging him to stay strong in a bid to make sure that he comes out a much stronger individual. The best means of communicating would be face-to-face communication as it is a rich channel that enables instant feedback and suitable for personal conversations (Cameron, p.68).

[I was sitting alone on that bench along the streetside café..staring at the setting sun and thinking about my recent failure of giving up on the most desired jobit seemed like the end of my world.]

Dejected and crestfallen I was sitting alone on the bench,

It really seemed like the end of my world, with no aspiration left. I had no hopes of sustaining in this world, I had no dream to fight for,

Maybe I lost it all, My destiny deprived me of it all by staging the perfect theft.

A loud thud behind me dragged me back to the real world, Saw people running, They all ran to a spot where a girl was lying bathed in blood, most of her parts ...

Everybody, in one way or the other, has got this internal urge to be powerful; to be able to exercise some levels of authority. Let us take an example of a student going to school.

Perhaps this is because of the human need to always be at a safety zone, where nothing can be harmful for the person, regardless if these are physical dangers, psychological and mental, or even emotional in nature. As such, this human tendency to escape from emotional and psychological burden is very apparent in the 1980 film, Ordinary People, which was directed by Robert Redford and starred Donald Sutherland, Mary Tyler Moore, and ...
