Henry Ford Model T
902 words
Henry Ford was initially stubborn about car sales
on his first car the Model T, not to mention
resentful. His theory was that dealers, not his
car, were to blame for the decline in sales.
However, the invincible man finally came to terms
with reality. As well as the rearrangement of the
Ford plants where it would be produced. Production
of the Model T ceased at the end of May 1927, a
few days after the 15 millionth car had come off
the assembly line. The most interesting thing of
Ford's plunge i...

African Americans Called Black
441 words
The denotative meaning of the word black means the
absence of light and the darkest of all colors. By
mixing all the colors in the rainbow you also can
get the color black. Researching the word black
made me think about the connotations of the word
and its many meanings that differ from the
definition of color in the dictionary. When black
is added onto a noun it turns from a color to a
negative adjective. I am beginning to understand
why many African Americans do not want to be
labeled as " Bla...

Form Of Racism Vicious Circle
1,150 words
From the beginning of recorded history, possibly
before then, humans have found a necessity for
classifying and categorizing every aspect of life.
This need for order has been used to efficiently
organize and clarify the endless details on Earth.
This arrangement of objects in groups has also
created a very sinister and volatile mindset that
some people live by. This associative manner of
classification has lead to the formation of
beliefs in race identities, stereotypes, and
superiority in the ...

Norton Anthology Of English Literature English Language

In this report, I have attempted to display a
general understanding of how the word court
arrived in the English language and suggest
reasons for its evolution. Much of the challenge
has been determining what of the information I
could present. Length restrictions and the
condition set out, to use The Norton Anthology of
English Literature as the only source to show the
synchronic use of the word, have forced me to take
a more narrow approach. Since court is a polemic
word I decided that rather ...

Young People Drug Free
1,765 words
Weve all seen them before. Maybe at a bus stop, in
our schools, or at the coffee shop. They look odd
enough to frighten a circus clown, but for some
reason, they always smile when you look their way.
Perhaps its that their hair is the color of the
sunset or that their pants look like they could
house a small family. It could be that their
headphones seem permanently glued to their ears
and that theyre never afraid to groove on the
sidewalk. Whatever the reason, you know that they
are not quite n...

Poem Beowulf Anglo Saxon
608 words
There are many traits that are possessed by those
who seek heroism. Whether it is in real life or in
fiction, every hero desires these character traits
in the past, present, and future. IN my opinion,
the two traits that are most prominent in the poem
Beowulf are bravery and goodness. In this poem,
Beowulf exhibits the trait of bravery by defeating
the monster, Grendel. This monster was a very
powerful monster that plagued the town of Here. He

Andy Warhol Pop Art

When considering the life and works of Andy
Warhol, one thing is agreed upon: for good or bad,
he changed the visual construction of the world we
live in. By the time of his death in 1987 he was
ranked on the same level with Pablo Picasso and
Jackson Pollock as one of the three most important
artists of this century. He was a working man, a
social climber, a person who liked to build
things, an acquirer of goods, and a known
homosexual. These attributes all contributed to

Good Vs Evil Good And Evil
410 words
Good vs. evil is an important concept. It is a
life long struggle inside of you. In life, you are
in a constant limbo between good and evil. One
day, you might be in a good mood and the other day
you might be in an evil, or bad mood. Before
history and even in history, good vs. evil has
always been a historic struggle. Now, good is
represented by the color white and the color black
represents evil. This is probably true because
white represents peace and tranquility, which is
what the current st...

Cultural Of The Ojibway Native Americans

I sat in awe when a Native American, dressed in
traditional regalia, walked forward and began
speaking to us about his life and culture. Never
in my nineteen years of life had I actually seen a
Native American aside from television. Prior to
that point I never had any first hand experiences
with their culture, so therefore all of my
opinions and thoughts were based on stereotypes I
had come to absorb over the years. Therefore, he
looked how I had imagined he would, but I had no

Critical Analysis Of Richard Billingham Photography

... trophic and disorienting; still, one might
notice that Billingham chose to photograph the old
man and then publish the photograph, rather than
immediately picking him up and cleaning him off
(Lewis). Billingham's behavior can be regarded as
one of callousness and distance, or perhaps one of
simple routine. As stated by Gordon Burn, every
night [Billingham] came in from college and Ray
would be lying passed-out on the bed; checking his
breathing was always the first thing he did. So

rapid change that pushed women into a more
prominent position during the 1920 s. Women began
to get wilder, more rebellious and were dubbed
Flappers by Scott Fitzgerald, coincidentally, the
writer of The Great Gatsby. Womens hemlines went
daringly lower and lower, from ankle length to

skirts or dresses above the knee were considered

Valley Of Ashes Great Gatsby

Could the color of her clothing tell me about the
type of personality that she has? At first, one
may think that this is a stereotype, however at
times it can be true. A person wearing a neon
green shirt and purple preacher pants is probably
more likely to be outgoing than someone wearing
jeans and a white polo. In literature, colors are
often purposefully chosen for different characters
to represent the character s personalities. In The
Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the colors

I was equipped with a greater degree of
