For April 13th

            In the article “Cultural Resistance Reader”, it claims that Philosophy does not often include facts. This, however, will be very likely to result in prejudice. Because if everyone is a philosopher, everyone will become very judgmental and have his/ or her own personal judgement into statements. Philosophy differs from religion, in which Philosophy involves criticism and religion is filled with common sense. In the article, “Orientalism”, after eighteenth century film helps the transparency of knowledge exchange amongst cultures.  Truth, while often consisting with facts, are often used by politics and economies. Somehow powers are determined not just by truths, but also the politic and economic factors as well. Truth should be considered as regulatory orders, powers, and regime, according to the article.
