As shown in the film the Vincini family was able to profit largely from the sugarcane business and was able to invest the money into other endeavors to generate more money which allowed his family to have hierarchy and political ranking within the country. The sugar cane business recruited people from Haiti which made other people migrate from Haiti to Dominican Republic for better opportunity but instead they were forced to conform to their law and rules and turn over there right and keep working for a low cost to not be imprisoned, the sugar cane business was nothing more than a slave plantation that was disgusted and sold as a dream for a better quality living and turns out the housing and and the plantation was no better than what they migrated from. Haitian migrated  for only temporary purposes to help their families back in Haiti but, Haitian people become stuck within the confinements of a political structure that is also regulated to the way in which a government is run which comes down to power over people. Most organizations encompass a power structure over people to keep them suppressed without the ability to regain their own powers as has before.  A power structure in a community is the  key leaders acting together to affect what gets done and how it gets done. However, the nature of the individual determines how the communities are affected and how resources are distributed; some people will benefit and others won't, but this statement goes back to the initial stance of how global equality affects us all.  

Bourdieu's theory of cultural capital. Well most wouldn’t probably associate Instagram with Culture capital but it's a new wave of Culture Capital and how society operates. The more follower you have makes it seem like that more valuable you are to and how much ranking you’ll have in society. Influencers are directly associated with high classism.Their way of living and being is what the norm is and how others should follow suit. They directly influence people way of interacting for capital gain.    

Weber’s theory of power. This article explains how the medical industry rather gains power over the profit of  healthcare instead of people's actual health. This has created fear based control in people that keeps them away from the doctors in fear they are gonna be charged an Arm and a Leg just to see if they are not well. People are stricken with anxiety of not knowing their health status because the health industry takes advantage of people in vulnerable stages. The power the healthcare system makes it hard for people to obtain medicine and proper care due to the control of how much people want to profit of it, which limits proper patient care.        

Marx’s theory of exploitation of labor. This article shows how the chocolate industry exploits children for labor well into their adulthoods. Most of the children are found to be overworked and under paid which goes against child labor laws. Most of the children do not go to school or receive any type of education, the children also so have proper housing while working in this industry. The chocolate industry is a 60 billion dollar industry and not even 10% goes back into any of their expensive for their labor

After watching multiple commercials on how society has programed gender rolls into kids at an early age it makes it hard to break a way from. The most  commercials were geared toward the girls. The commercials were on how girls are meant to clean and take care of the family, the commercials are not showing any girls that they came become more then use a house wife or mother which it very limiting in there development in todays society. The girl commercial display the need that they also must look put together and wear make up and spend money on dressing up, for attention to be liked or accepted in society. These commercial are centered around how girls look at a young at and it already setting a standard of beauty with developing insecurities at a very young age. The boys commercials are all about play play play and more play. They boy commercial are offend shown that how they need to be a superhero and display a need to be strong or distractive. The boy commercials also display the need to build and and have ownership over land and others very early one. The boys must also drive and play with the nicest cars, I also noticed the boys also get into trading and earning early before girls. With that being said it geared towards girls more then boy which makes sense because women are more of consumer in material then some boys are.

The Dove commercial shows the depiction of whiteness and how white people white wash the media! It also depicts that blacks are dirty and how a black person could potentially want to turn into someone white.  

We men in bloom, so get in tune.Can't fit my shoes--I'm a God .Probably could use my brain to bend a spoon” Letting people know that came from the same circumstances, he wasn't about to sell himself short my being a smart crook and become a religious fool because that how society exploits people into believing that the circumstances that you are born into are the end all be all, but he chose to see himself in a different light and which makes him a GOD which is powerful.
