Politics and Culture - American Profiles In Radical Independence

 
“I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be stuffed. I want the cultures of all the lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

Politics and Culture - July 2011

Defense of Marriage

July 31st 2011 12:42
The more the world changes and appears to evolve with advancements in technology; there is still very little that can be said about the way human beings have grown as a species.

It may be heartwarming to look upon the way modern society has progressed from the dark periods of the not so distant past but there is still a lot of work to be done

From Left Field: War of Contradictions

July 27th 2011 13:41
For American Citizens who have had the privilege of living in a nation built on the dreams of men and women that came from every corner of the globe to build better lives for themselves and their families; it’s hard to believe there can be so many problems detrimental to the individual freedoms protected in the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Freedoms that are thrown on the back burner in mysterious codes by politicians that claim they are fighting to get America back to the prestigious places of yesteryear and are blatantly left naked and vulnerable by politicians on the other side of the fence with the implementation of radical initiatives that are leading us down an even darker path

A History of Violence

July 24th 2011 12:59
To truly understand the history of the human race is to understand the role violence has played throughout the history of our existence as a race of people.

Violence that has never been limited to any religion, race, nationality, revolution or social uprising but has been rooted in the most basic instincts of human beings as a race of people

From Left Field: “What will it take?”

July 20th 2011 12:55
With the rise of events happening around the globe beyond the control of any one individual or groups of individuals a sense of panic has swept over the world populous.

Panic that has eroded the once popular notion that certain parts of the world would never feel the pain that comes with fear, economic uncertainty, hunger and helplessness

Media’s Role in a Society of Extremes

July 17th 2011 12:48
Over the past few weeks the role of media has been forced into the spotlight.

A spotlight that has been brightly glaring on an obvious problem the world public has been willing to ignore until it hit far too close to home

From Left Field: Problems of the 21st Century

July 13th 2011 10:40
Over the course of human history each and every landmark achieved by the human race has lead us this point.

A point where information is no longer a commodity controlled by the powers that be, a point where freedom is no longer a concept reserved for the wealthy and the idea of equality among every race, socio-economic class, gender, religious or non religious belief and sexual orientation is closer to becoming a reality than in any generation that came before

“The Radical Thing about the Truth”

July 10th 2011 11:36
In every society that claims to adhere to the principles of Democracy there is always one underlying theme that connects everything that keeps a free society truly free.

While some people may be quick to point out that it is only with individual sacrifice that these freedoms are able to be maintained; others may turn to the fact that it is truth that binds together the elements of every free society

From Left Field: The Search for Closure

July 6th 2011 10:53
A day after the most emotional trial in the history of the United States of America to be tried in the arena of public opinion; people around the world are now forced to face the harsh realities a public spectacle helped them escape from.

Its public spectacles like the Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson trials that tug at the heart strings of the world public because of the reminders that they bring. Reminders of the world not being a perfect place to bring justice to the men, women and children that become victims and never find peace in our minds because of a lack of closure

"Fourth of July Tribute 2011"

July 3rd 2011 10:50
On this extended weekend when Americans from sea to shining sea pay tribute to everything that is the United States of America; I felt it was important to take this year’s Inependence Day Tribute tribute back to the fundamentals behind the word’s freedom, bravery, honor and patriotism that have sometimes become hollow in modern conversation.

For all the time spent talking about whether or not the forefathers of the United States of America would be proud of the state this country is in; there has been an equal amount of time spent by the majority of Americans missing the point
