Semester II Final

1. Before doing any research, I would except to see names such as John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, and Abraham Lincoln at the top of a list of presidents sorted by popularity. I could expect to see someone like Donald Trump at the bottom of said list.  PART A (1-8) Without researching this topic, I predict the three most highly ranked presidents in US history will be John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, and Abraham Lincoln and the worst might be Donald Trump. 2. Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Theodore Roosevelt have consistently been identified as the top four presidents of the US. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman are in fifth and sixth place, meaning that they could have switched from fourth to fifth, as Theodore has consistently placed fourth in each survey. 3. I have observed that this survey is only accurate until 2017. This also made me notice that because of this time frame, Donald Trump would be excluded from this list. I noticed that Abr

Immigration Stereotypes

How Political Cartoons Influence Immigrant Stereotypes While researching the stereotypes that immigrants deal with on a daily basis, I learned that many of these stereotypes stem from political cartoons from the 19th and 20th centuries. These political cartoons from the past were used as a form of entertainment and most often portrayed immigrants from other countries in a very negative light. According to The Atlantic , the Irish were often portrayed as apes, Italians as street filth, and Chinese as parasitic locusts. At this time, these different races, cultures, and identities were not welcome to become a part of the United States' melting pot and/or mosaic. These political cartoons were originally published in humor magazines, with their sole purpose being to entertain the reader or viewer. They were originally intended to be political satire and commentary on the events at the time, but when viewed now, they seem very much like racist propaganda. Political cartoons abou

Racial Differences in Drug Usage and Incarceration

Through my research on racial disparity in drug related crimes, I have learned so much about how this affects both black and white people with a history of drug abuse. Many different websites and sources taught me different things. The problems I have learned about in my research span widely from racism, to unfair sentences, to overcrowded prisons and outdated criminal justice policies. This was very enlightening to me because I did not realize that these issues are as prevalent as they are in today’s society. I now believe that we must make changes in our community in order to have a more safe and fair nation. The first site I visited for my research on this topic was NCBI. I visited and viewed two different articles, both regarding and focusing on a different case study. The first was comparing the status of both black and white drug-related offenders. The creators of this study interviewed 243 participants, 146 of which being black, and 97 being white. They were interviewed and as
