The Three Faces of Jesus
As a student of philosophy I’m always interested in how people perceive the cosmos in an organised way. A shared view of how the universe works relies on a certain amount of faith. If someone says that lightning is made by a thunder god, and they say it convincingly enough, they will be believed, and then they will be at odds with another group of people who believe in electricity and charged particles and so on. The two groups get together, sparks fly.

Netflix's You and how 'nice guys' became the real villains
cliché about villains propagated by film and TV is that they’re physically conspicuous, and so anyone with eyes can see they are a threat. That's why, from Freddy Kreuger in Nightmare on Elm Street to Rami Malek’s character Lyutsifer Safin in the new Bond film No Time To Die, villainy has been visually coded via the extremely prejudicial use of facial disfigurements.

What is the bond between Mexicans and the United States?
According to the most recent statistics from 2017, the population of Mexican descent living in the United States was about 34.6 million, or about 10.8% of the total U.S. population in that year. In other words, it is highly likely that Mexicans in the U.S. have now surpassed those of English descent and are in fourth place after Germans, Irish, and Africans (black Americans). It is important to know that they were only 500,000 people in the United States in 1900 when the United States had a total of 76 million people. After 117 years, the U.S. population has quadrupled, and the Mexican population has increased 70-fold, yet this 70-fold increase is based on several mass deportations.

What is it like to be of Irish descent, the second-largest race in the United States?
The Historical Entanglement of Ireland and Britain The view that German descent is the number one ethnic group in the United States has been questioned by some netizens. This is because some internet users believe that the number of people of British descent is number one. After all, they count Irish descent among British descent. The total number of people counted in this way would indeed exceed the number of people of German descent.

A Brief History of Black Americans from Slavery to Emancipation
The History of the African Slave Trade by Country When it comes to the history of black Americans, most people know that they were trafficked to America by European colonists hundreds of years ago. Europeans were not the first culprits in the African slave trade. Slavery has long existed among African tribes, just as it has existed among Europeans for thousands of years, and its history can be traced back to ancient Greece and Rome. As early as the 1st century in the park, the book of African history called "The Return of the Red Sea" contains accounts of slaves from the Horn of Africa (today's Somalia).
