Interracial adoption is a topic that has been controversial for a long period of time now. Many people have the notion that children should be raised by people of their own background whom of which they’d feel more comfortable. While others feel that the background of the adoptees shouldn’t matter as long as they’re a loving family and are able to provide and give the child what it needs. When going to adopting a child it is important that the racial background is taken into consideration when raising them. It is good to be able to incorporate some culture of their own into growing up in order to make it easier on them somewhat knowing their heritage later on in life. Transracial adoption has been very popular for decades and has been quite popular among celebrities as well. The most important key when going into adopting from another race is to be able to think about life from their point of view because hiding and being “color blind” to race is not an option. It’s essential to be able to have the child around people of his/her own race to be able to be more confident and develop a positive identity. It is important that children don’t lose their sense of identity and have relationships with people of their own ethnicity as well. It is recommended that when adopting a child of a different race to move into a more integrated community that allows the child to develop a positive sense of self. Although this being a touchy subject it is one that has to be talked upon sooner or later.
Many people see the up side when going to adopting a child and being able to provide a healthy home for the less fortunate. Although some people find it as a negative in general and don’t believe that transracial adoption is good for the child because it could lead to identity issues later on down the line. People especially when it comes to black children, they want them to be somewhat exposed and accustomed to what comes along with being black in a different society. The cons of adopting a child is not being able to duplicate the way of “normal” living for that child. The child can adapt slowly to the culture and language of the country it is being brought to and might not be able to grasp things as quickly. The children may sometimes feel out of place and figure out things as if they don’t belong and this
five years of service Orwell moved to London by free will where he truly absorbed the world of the unequally impoverished. Grasping these sights would soon spark something in Orwell as they helped lay the foundation for his two well-known political satires “Animal Farm”, and “Nineteen Eighty-Four”. Not only bound to books, Orwell wrote an intricate essay “Politics and the English Language” depicting how manipulation can result from vague writing as he continued to branch out from his primal ideas. At…

I believe that Fish’s statement is true yet contradictive because he assumes that irony is not a formulaic technique used and recognised by writers and readers; whether being from the 18th century or to the modern day. Furthermore, there is no such thing as an absolute text, so readers are inevitably bound to interpret ‘the produced object of attention’ as each reader brings their own personal meaning to the text. This then conveys another argument to what exactly is the value of irony itself? Is…
