But do those in power follow them? Why do they sooner or later...

Most people have probably been victims of a “divide and conquer” strategy at some point, in some theatre of life. Often, we do not realize it because we are too close to the emotion and postured wrangling of charges and countercharges, of arguments and personal attacks.

Some names live in infamy. The memory and names of those individuals have been seared into the historical fabric of the countries and cultures in which they did treacherous deeds.

She said this to make us think, Why am I about to do this thing everyone else is doing? But how much of society still follows the c...

There was a large crowd gathered at the funeral home, including politically prominent men and women, professionals, and working-class folks, to pay their respects.
