Essay 1 05/FEB/2018

Audience: Lebanese people that harm Syrian refugees. In other words, the audience is all of Lebanon and its people, because at the end of the day they almost all participated in this inequitable movement.

Purpose: The purpose is to deliver a message of awareness concerning the situation Syrians are put in. Keeping them woke, creating lights in the Lebanese minds, are definitely the other purposes of this essay, all in order to change this misery.

Persona: A Syrian adult that has already spent 5+ years in Lebanon ever since war hit Syria, his native country.

Title: The repugnant greeting of Syrian refugees in Lebanon

To say the least, facing a period where war is invading your country, is something no human being would want to witness. Emigration is more likely to take place during these tough times. Back in the 90s, Lebanon was going through a war and Syria warmly welcomed Lebanese people with open arms. Since 2012, it was Syria’s turn; war took over Syria. Forced to move permanently abroad to Lebanon, Syrians didn’t actually receive the same welcome they gave back in the day. Syrians were criticized, awfully mistreated, and had to face hard obstacles during years and years. This horrible greeting was mainly highlighted by a social superiority towards Syrians, a cruel discrimination, as well as the different feelings and reactions of the Syrian population.

First, as Syrians started to settle in, Lebanese people took a stand and wanted to feel appreciation for the fact that they’re welcoming people on their land.
This is basically when the Lebanese began acting socially superior towards Syrians. They felt so dominant, so much better than Syrians. Lebanese kids at school would ask young Syrians how they eat. They would literally ask them if they use forks. Somehow, they consider themselves the most superior, like a controlling force. Another example is how Syrians are asked if they know how to speak a language other than Arabic, as if they come from a petty yet uneducated area. Furthermore, if some Syrian kid excels at school, it’s a total surprise. Teachers get shocked and starts questioning him about his life. As a kid, he would feel really embarrassed as he is obviously being seen inferior to his comrades. The dominant Lebanese population have the habit of using an insult; they use the word “Syrians” as an insult. In other words, the poor workers you could see on the streets are all labelled “Syrians”. Using it as a way to feel superior, all they want is to belittle the innocent Syrians. They somehow feel better, probably not belonging in the same class. This social superiority didn’t stop here, it actually leads and reaches other inequalities.

To demonstrate their superiority, Lebanon is applying different levels of dominance on Syrians.
Hating on them excessively, Lebanese people mercilessly discriminate Syrians. With every family leaving its native country, fathers lose their once stable job. They now have the responsibility to build businesses in Lebanon to keep their families happy. But unfortunately, the Lebanese government simply doesn’t allow them; it is forbidden for them to own something on Lebanese territories. This is where racism and discrimination take place. Being Syrian from origin is considered an insult for Lebanese people. This malice went further. Any Syrian searching for a small part-time job is banned. Not to mention that the Lebanese government doesn’t even offer help for the seriously poor Syrian families. Moreover, parents tell their kids to stay away from Syrian kids. They’re being thought that Syrians simply aren’t on their level; they’re people that you shouldn’t hang out with as all they will have on you is a bad influence. Some parents even forbid their young girls to date a Syrian guy! To add up to this crazy discrimination, every single time a Syrian person is about to get an award, he would be replaced by a Lebanese person just because of his race, straight up! Syrians are sometimes used to Lebanon’s advantage. In other words, Syrians are charged more when it comes to renting a place for example. Such examples shed the light on how deliberately cruel this discrimination is and it actually created miserable, down moments in Syrians’ hearts.

Allowed to get in, the needy Syrian population are nonetheless drowned in a violent entourage.
They are badly affected and this sometimes results in a mandatory change. To be left out and just be completely rejected by their fellow Lebanese, Syrian kids now have their feelings hurt, literally. They experience deep loneliness at a very young age. As a matter of fact, to also be seen as a security threat, or as disgusting inferior people, is too much to handle for the Syrian adults that some of them really get sick and deal with anxiety. Furthermore, extracting harshly their value as humans gets them depressed to a level that they really can’t take it anymore. Things are getting out of hands, as in torture and death are taking place, and that’s exactly when some Syrians think of a change. Syrians are moving again, to get settled in another part of this world, yet another time. Some of them are even forced to go back to Syrian cities where war is seemingly still peaking. Syrians obviously are hurt, and for some moving away is definitely a solution to be considered.

In conclusion, it has come to a point where saying that Lebanon doesn’t want to welcome Syrians is nothing but a straight fact. Syrians deal with a dominant Lebanon as they’re being treated completely inferior to them just to make it crystal clear that they don’t belong in the same class. The unlimited racial critique of them is off limits. Syrians were banned from a lot of things such as job opportunities; there was no such thing as freedom in their lives. This misery intensely affected Syrians and made them go through anxiety, depression, but ultimately led to them moving away. The innocent Syrians can’t live in such a toxic environment forever, and this needs to change. Moving away to a better place will give them freedom, more opportunities and most importantly happiness in these hard times. However, if they don’t, they’ll be stuck in this controlling Lebanon, that did nothing but badly greet Syrians for the past 6 years or so.

Essay 02 Instructions

Your second essay is due by noon on Thursday, April 5th – by email only!

This essay must be an expository or informative essay. You have to explain something, give the pertinent information about it,
maybe describe the situation, maybe describe some process involved – the specifics depend on your topic. It might help to
know what an expository essay is not: it is not opinion nor argument. It might include any of the strategies, such as
description, comparison, contrast, and even narration, but the main purpose is to expound upon your topic. The possibilities are
endless.

Consider some possibilities if you were writing about guitars: You could explain what to look for in a guitar, how to record
guitar, part of the history of guitars (you couldn’t do the whole history), categorize the types of guitars, explain the different
types of pick-ups available, and on and on. As another example, you could write something about current issues – explaining
the issue, the sides, the actions taken, the proposed solutions . . . whatever you decide to focus on. Those are just two
examples. The main criteria is that your essay is expository or informative, not an opinion or an argument.

You still have to write an introduction and a conclusion, of course. You do not have a required number of points or paragraphs.
Instead, you have a word limit: 750 word minimum, 1000 word maximum.

1) No cover page.
2) No headers. No footers.
