Rhythm And Blues White And Black
1,818 words
Rap 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...

Karl Marx Communist Regime
1,870 words
Animal Farm by George Orwell was written in an
importune time where communist ideologies were
spreading across the globe. As a socialist
himself, he despised the idea, as it was not a
pure socialist form of government, instead it was
a deception of leaders in mansions whilst others
suffered outside of their palace walls. Animal
Farm is a struggle between the old regime and an
ever-changing world that leads to the beginnings
of revolutions. It is a reflection of the
communist ideologies that prop...

British Prime Minister Republic Of Ireland

by an Irish martyr, Michael Collins, whos
unyielding determination as a Nationalist and a
Catholic served as inspiration to continue in the
struggle that the province of Northern Ireland is

all originate, what steps have been taken towards
peace and why is N...

Analysis Of The October Crisis In Quebec

believed in democratic methods to solve the
problem. The y wanted separation right away and

Russian Revolution Printing Press Began

minds were encouraged in Europe between the 1300 s
and 1600 s; this time of drastic change was called
the Renaissance. After years of oppression the
Church could no longer keep the lid on peoples
minds. They began to ask questions and search for

20 Th Century Lear And Cordelia
1,243 words
Many scholars consider King Lear one of
Shakespeare's greatest plays. This is because of
its power; it tackles all issues and is still
relevant today to the extent that it has been
called Shakespeare's play for the 20 th century.
King Lear is cathartic and a discouragingly
accurate portrayal of human nature. It shows us
altruism, selfishness, love, hate, stupidity and
understanding. It questions fate, the gods, our
purpose and how, why and what human nature is. It
is this, the sheer amount, and ...

Differences Between New England And Chesapeake Settlers
764 words
When first English settlers began arriving in
America in the 1700 's they mainly settled in two
regions - New England and the Chesapeake. Even
though both groups of people were English by
origin, they had developed two very different
societies. Each group had it's own beliefs and
expectations of what they will find in this new
world, and the results of their settlement were
very different as well. When the ship headed for
Virginia left England in 1635, it was filled
mostly with men in their twen...

Rock 'n' Roll Jim Morrison

Madonna wrote a book about it. Did Marilyn Manson
alter his? Just about every other musician flaunts
theirs. What is it? Sex. For some time now, sex
and sexuality have been as much a part of rock 'n'
roll as the music itself. These days just about
everyone acknowledges sex's place in music, from
sexy dancers in videos, to the skimpy clothes of
the performers, to the sexually explicit lyrics
found in every music genre from country to metal.
Sexuality in music wasn't always so blatant, and

Tragic Hero Tragic Flaw

things that might happen and lost sight of what
needed to happen. The tragic end that Hamlet saw
was only due to the character flaws that he had.
Hamlet was a tragic hero, because of the tragic

One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest by Ken Kesey For
this quarters book report I choose to read a book
that was not on the lists given to me. I picked
One Flew Over the Cuckoos nest because I thought
that it would be an interesting book with lots of
relative themes to what I have gone through, and
what I will go through. Not literally as much
figuratively. As I first started to read the book
I thought it would be just another story about
lunatics in a Mental Institution with no help for
