How the World shapes our views

The main focus of these articles is to take simple concepts such as photographs or the effect of natural disasters and put it in the perspective of each class of people who have an opinion. The most basic yet influential perspective is the view from an young child, which personifies the idea of innocence and challenges us to realize that the effect of these natural disasters is what these children start out their life experiencing. As children are seen in these pictures holding signs that read "Bake sale for Haiti" and others, a simple change of emotion can completely alter our take on the image. If a child seems unhappy and distressed, then we can assume that the child has been directly affected and is feeling a sense of lose. On the other hand, if the child is smiling then we can see there is hope yet for the future, and that hopefully the damage can be salvaged and renewed. Journalists and photographers use rhetorical appeals for two main reasons in these photos: that first is to use a haunting or sympathy-provoking picture to gain support so that the situation will never happen again, this can be done by having people donate money or in some cases join the military. The next is to provoke feelings of heart-warmth and reassure people that we are in a good situation.  Finally, the last section that was covered is the effect of photos across different cultures, such as the issue of immigration and its impact on Americans and the takeover of corporate America. Some of these images challenge us to take into account the fact that many of the illegal immigrants that our nation is currently dealing have no other option but to flee their respected nation so that they may have better opportunity. If we just stepped back from the main issue we see with it, which is why should we suffer because other nations are not providing the best possible means of living, then we can see the innocence and desperateness of the situation that many of the illegal immigrants are thrown into.
