In a SHORT expository essay, tell what you already know and what your opinion is about contemporary immigration and migration in the 21st century. For instance you might want to write about what’s happening the Mexican American border, the desperate need to immigrate from Afghanistan or Syria, or what’s going on in Ukraine right now, or some other immigration and migration situation.

Interview and Compare your own thoughts with someone you know who might have strong feelings about immigration.  This person doesn’t necessarily need to be someone who supports immigrants or has a lot of information about immigration.  They might be someone who agrees with your own ideas about immigration, or someone who has very different ideas. What did you learn by interviewing this person?  

I’m working on a literature discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Step One

1. Read all of the assigned tales from Day Nine.

2. Please respond to the following prompt with a minimum of 150 words:

“Though no theme is chosen by Emilia, the Queen of the Ninth Day, what patterns do you yourself discern in the tales themselves? Do you notice a trope (defined as a “figurative or metaphorical use of a word or expression”) in more than one tale? Or is there a character or city that reappears in more than one tale?

Using textual examples from at least two of the assigned tales, write two paragraphs in which you attempt to understand the reason for a particular pattern you’ve observed.”

Opponents of affirmative action cite several reasons for opposing it. Affirmative action, they say, is reverse discrimination and, as such, is both illegal and immoral. The people benefiting from affirmative action are less qualified than many of the whites with whom they compete for employment and college admissions. In addition, opponents say, affirmative action implies that the people benefiting from it need extra help and thus are indeed less qualified. This implication stigmatizes the groups benefiting from affirmative action.

Please answer the following questions given the above introduction and what we have learned about affirmative action:
