Many teens in gangs will pressure peers into becoming part of a ga...

Second Class Citizens Small Town
1,216 wordsThroughout time the concept of gender and the corruption of power associated with it has been a very evident problem within society. Many texts have been designed to expose these issues and in particular the feature films Heathers, directed by Michael Lehman and Shame, by Steve Jodrell. Both these films have been heavily constructed in order to position us as the audience to take a very negative response towards the concepts of power and gender and further an anti-conform attitude. Techniques su...

Rhythm And Blues White And Black
1,818 wordsRap Music is not music but it is a cleverly marketed euphemism disguised to give the obnoxious noise societal legitimacy. Describing the (disenchanting) chanting of Rap Music as singing or as music is indeed (in either case) a capital misnomer. Real Music is the careful arrangement of organized sounds in the form of notes that then result in a smooth blend of rhythm, tone, and pitch that when united, is quite pleasing to the ear. Rap is not music. The unpleasant-sounding horror is chaotic disson...

Tao Te Ching People In Western
2,165 wordsThe Tao The Taoism can hardly be referred to as religion, in the classical sense of this word. This is because it is being largely based not on faith, but on philosophical rationale, which is the reason why Taoism appeals to people who have their sense of logic, as the cornerstone, upon which their mental activity is based. The book Tao Te Ching, which was allegedly written by Lao Tsu, emphasizes the principle of Wu-wei as such that should define peoples existential mode. The semantic complicati...

Bury Her Brother Antigone And Ismene
707 wordsThe Role of Ismene in Antigone In Sophocle's Antigone, the characters show a variety of traits. However, Antigone's life of aspiration, family of noble rank, and display of good mentality portray her as the tragic hero of the story. A tragic hero must include three main traits. The hero must have a tragic flaw, a family of high class or rank, and must be a fundamentally good person. Antigone fulfills all three traits painstakingly in the mythic story of Antigone. A tragic flaw plays a very imper...

Joseph Heller uses the insane situations of the setting and his characters to show a unique perspective on World War II. A small Army...
