Scan your environment and list all the indications you see that communicate the message that “White is Right” or that being white is normative—even superior. Explain why each item indicates “White is Right.” For example: Flesh colored bandages are whose flesh color? Try to find at least 10 different items from at least 2 different sources or places. For example, listing, Band-Aids and Ace bandages would be two items, but from the same source/place.

In a situation where a driverless car is out of control and I am faced with killing myself or five pedestrians, I would sacrifice myself. When purchasing the vehicle, drivers are aware of the risks that come with it as machines are never 100% safe. Although driverless cars were manufactured with the intention of lowering the number of accidents on the road, this does not guarantee that the machine will not malfunction. Those who purchase these vehicles agree to the possibility of the vehicle going out of control and possibly killing themselves in the process. Knowing this, in the case that the machine experiences mechanical failure, the driver who purchased the vehicle should sacrifice themselves in the situation rather than sacrificing the life of five innocent people who did not agree to the terms of trusting their life with a machine.

When society mixes driverless cars with human-driven cars, there is the consequence of humans losing the ability to make decisions. Instead of the driver making the decision of who to kill in the situation, the car makes the decision instead. Not only that, the situation then becomes black and white with only two possible options, killing the driver or the 5 pedestrians as machines are only programmed to think a certain way. Human minds on the other hand, are more flexible and able to think in a different direction. They are able to make the decision of veering in a different direction or finding an option that amounts to the least detrimental effects on everyone in the situation. Rather than relying on machines and being restricted to a selected amount of options in an emergency situation, humans should drive themselves and make their own decisions.

The debate regarding the legalization of drugs, particularly that of soft drugs like cannabis (or marijuana) is capable of being characterized as one which pits the concept of freedom of the individual against the concept of a paternalistic State. Advocates of legalization argue, amongst other things, that cannabis is not only less harmful than legal substances like alcohol and tobacco, but as a matter of fact has been proven to possess certain medicinal properties. In stark contrast, those opposed to legalization argue that the legalization of cannabis will act as a precursor to increased addiction to hard drugs, and will necessarily lead to an increase in the crime rate itself.

In 1937, the Marijuana (Marijuana) Tax Act was introduced by Henry Anslinger and passed, levying taxes on anyone who was associated with cannabis, hemp, or marijuana. These types of association include possession, use, sale, and many other acts which would be considered illegal today. In addition to the taxes provisioned by the bill, penal codes for the procedural use and possession of marijuana were also outlined - violators could face five years in prison in up to a $2,000 fine. In 1951, an act that superseded the Marijuana Tax Act was passed criminalizing the possession and use of cannabis, hemp, and/or marijuana. In 1969, in the case of Leary v. United States, the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937 was overturned on the grounds of the 5th Amendment because those seeking a tax stamp would have to incriminate themselves. In 1970, Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act listing cannabis as a Schedule I drug. Despite the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, many states and local cities began to decriminalize marijuana citing possession/use/sale/etc. as low priority offenses. Although many attempts have been made to reschedule cannabis off Schedule I, the Supreme Court ruled in a 2005 decision in the case of United States v. Raich, the federal government has jurisdiction over the legal status of marijuana.

Today, States are debating, and in some cases, bringing to their voters, the legalization of Marijuana.

Upon entering his office, your therapist asks you to sit down and be comfortable. He then tells you that you should speak freely, and not to worry about censoring any thoughts you may have during the therapy session. He sits behind you to minimize any eye contact--he does not wish to serve as an authority figure during your session. At one point he cautions you about becoming defensive and suggests that you might be unconsciously attempting to block his access into gaining insight into the inner workings of your thought processes. What type of therapy do you think this is? Explain your answer.
