The problem that the United States faces when it comes to the imprisonment of people is an enormous one, and one that can be understood from many different angles. This problem touches on topics such as the number of people in prison, the excessive sentences given to most criminals, the fact that such an institution is run like a business or the many cases of unjust imprisonment.
Many people have contributed to this, and I believe that an apology is not enough in this case. It is necessary for these people to be proactive when it comes to changing legislation. Laws need to be reviewed, as well as individual cases. When instances of injustice are found, these need to be made public and the person who suffered through them deserves to be compensated. This is the only way in which we could improve the current situation of this system.

in an occurrence at owl creek bridge why did the stars appear in a different order?
Answer and explanation:
"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" is a short story by author Ambrose Bierce. The main character, Peyton Farquhar, is tricked into trying to burn a bridge that would allow Union soldiers to cross. Farquhar is a Confederacy supporter. He ends up hanged.
However, the author fools readers for a moment, leading us to believe Farquhar escaped when the noose broke and he fell in the river. Farquhar begins a painful journey back home. He feels tired, sore, and famished. When he finds a road that leads to his house, everything tells him there is something ominous about it. It looks like no one has ever set foot there. The trees form walls on both sides, and there isn't a sound to be heard. Even the stars, when he looks up at the sky, look strange:
Overhead, as he looked up through this rift in the wood, shone great golden stars looking unfamiliar and grouped in strange constellations. He was sure they were arranged in some order which had a secret and malign significance.
All these signs mean he is dying. Farquhar never escaped. He is merely hallucinating in the brief moments it takes to die from strangulation. The stars appear in a different order as a sign of that: maybe to show what he sees is not real; maybe because he is seeing them from the Afterlife.

the point at which the narrator begins to keep a journal, hiding it from her husband
the point at which the narrator introduces the yellow wallpaper to the reader
seen only from the outside
The correct answer is A. The point at which the narrator completely identifies herself with the woman trapped in the wallpaper

"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story that describes the experience of a woman as she is isolated by her husband at an old house as her husband considers she is suffering from depression or a hysterical tendency. During this process, the woman becomes obsessed with the yellow wallpaper in her room.
Indeed, as days pass the woman begins to believe there is a woman behind the wallpaper and at the end of the story when her internal conflict reaches the peak she believes this woman in the wallpaper is herself. This causes the woman to destroy the wallpaper and finally lost her mind completely. This means in this story, the crisis/ climax or higher point in the story is "The point at which the narrator completely identifies herself with the woman trapped in the wallpaper" as this causes the main character to lost her mind.

Which pair of lines in Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” is an example of personification?
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
Answer:
"He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake."
The author is personifying the horses thoughts.
Answer: "He gives his harness bells a shakeTo ask if there is some mistake."

arguments?
A) Vaccinations provides the topic for both authors.
B)

vaccinated, and the second author argues that many
children do not need to be vaccinated.
Answer:
D)

vaccinated, and the second author argues that many
children do not need to be vaccinated.
Explanation: D is the correct formulated option, since both of the authors goals are to persuade parents into whether their child is to be vaccinated or not. Thus cutting to the chase.

What does the speaker mean by ""And ignorance is / A lost paradise"" in lines 20–21?
Answer:
The line '...and ignorance is/ a lost paradise' means that as she has gained knowledge by reading, she is no more ignorant to knowledge and to her ignorance is a like a lost paradise.
Explanation:
"Blind" is a poem written by Fatima Naoot. The poem speaks about the blindness of the speaker and the surgery which she underwent. The speaker is saying that when she was blind she used to listen to people reading her books.
The speaker in the poem is also trying to speak not only about her physical blindness but blindness in terms of ignorance of knowledge or the things she learned by listening to the books.
The speaker says that she was illiterate in terms of many things and ignorant in terms of spirituality as well. By using the reference of 'Lama' in her poetry, the speaker is hinting about her spiritual blindness and ignorance of spiritual things.
So, the speaker is refering to this spiritual ignorance a paradise that is lost. That now she is no more ignorant and has gained knowledge.
