There’s No Time For “Oh For Crying Out Loud!” Moments During a War
War is stupid and heartless. Such conflicts punish the wrong people. People like us. Non-combatants who are doing mundane things like picking up a few grocery items, dry-cleaning, or taking our children to the dentist.

Vladimir Is Not The Problem! Let me start by giving recognition to Vladimir. I give credit when it is due with plain honesty. Remember that recognition acknowledges a deed or involvement that an individual contributed in a given area. Vladimir, you should be ashamed of yourself, and if your mother is nothing like you, she carries greater shame and disgrace to be associated with an entity of your kind

To: Princeton Board of Admissions Entry Essay – Personal History of Racism in America Malachi Holder Speaking about my own history on a topic such as this, racism, is eating the elephant to say the least. Without a doubt it made me think, and deeper than I though I would. Being a straight, white male, I may not have have the proper insight to really dig into the topic, the learned experience, so-to-say, to really offer valuable input or analysis. Still, I do have some learned experience, and the more I think about the topic the more I realize I may have something to add. You see, the history of racism, my history, is a double edged sword. It has certainly effected and molded my life, flavored my likes, language, choices, and friends. It also imbued me with intense guilt, especially throughout childhood. It taught me many things and made me a better person, even though my own personal history with racism tells me much if it is not what is seems?

Love is a beautiful thing when nurtured and observed in ample detail. It requires sacrifice, change, adaptation. It asks a lot of people, but for those who haven't truly shared a real love, then I ask you to follow along. You see, I'm no pessimist, in fact, I'm a glass-half-full kinda gal, but the love we hope for, you know, the portrayal of unrealistic, yet incredibly admirable romance in the movies, fails to mention the lethal parts of affinity. Although love at first sight, a miraculous thing really, is a lovely image we young people fabricate in our minds, fantasizing that it could be a reality one day must be, it can be deadly.

The Curse of Child Labour
Child labour has fallen by 38% in the last decade, but 152 million youngsters are still impacted, and the COVID-19 pandemic has made matters worse. Child labour is prevalent in many parts of the world, and it occurs in a variety of industries, with negative educational, physiological, and psychological consequences for children. Poverty, armed conflict, insufficient rules and regulations, social inequality, prejudice, and deep cultural traditions are only a few of the factors that contribute to child labour.
