... feet tall." Wallace responded, "Yes, I've heard. He kills men by the hundreds, and if he were here he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse. I am William Wallace, and I see a whole army of my countrymen here in defiance of tyranny. You have come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?" In some ways he is a god to his people. He unites them to fight against insurmountable odds in the English, something no other Scottish lord could do. His contrast in savagery and nobility is astounding. In battle he has no equal, yet in his willingness to die for freedom he is m ...

(The World Book Encyclopedia; Pettigrew, Thomas F., 62) For these reasons, many racists think they deserve special rights or privileges.

To people in Europe, Asia, and on other continents, America is a wonderful place to live. It has been said t ...
... that slavery was a flawed system that made the south ineffective and because the North's free labor system was superior it must be guarded from southerners. When the Republican candidate, Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860, the South felt threatened, and because expansion was vital to the survival of slavery they also felt their way of life was being threatened. Because slavery was such an important part of Southern society, the South felt that they could not survive without it. That's why they were not willing to compromise with the north. To own slaves was a sign of wealth and social prestige and poor farmers who could not afford slaves had a goal to work ...
... conflict. In the summer of 1998, the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) decided to launch a guerilla warfare attack on Serbia in attempts to liberate themselves and gain their cultural rites.

... and the rubber tappers get the 60% of all the land. Then they can’t complain. They still have plenty of trees and resources. The government and ranchers don’t cut down all the tree’s anyways. I believe that the groups will not be happy and excited but its a fair deal on my behalf. I think this is fair because the government had a chance to make urbanization and it didn’t work out to good. I just don’t want them to ruin the rainforest We need it for air. With this as the new land reserve, I know that the Rubber Tappers, Enviromentalist’s, and especially the Native Amazonians. But they will still be very angry to see the ...

... by Perry Miller. In the preface of his book Tompkins found that Miller didn’t even recognize the Indian’s existence in America, calling it "vacant." The fact is that there were Indians here, Miller just didn’t see history in that light. Secondly, Tompkins went to the book, New England Frontier Puritans and Indians, 1620-1675 authored by Alden Vuaghan in 1965. This Vuaghan’s angle toward American history was antipodal to Miller, even though the writers spoke of the same effects.
