Lee Harvey Oswald John F Kennedy
880 words
The cheers and cries of the crowd were roaring and
still escalating as he approached. The 1961
Lincoln Continental peered over the corner. The
flap of hands in the air blocked the lens
momentarily. Two security motorcycles made the
turn on Elm Street and I felt excitement circulate
my entire body as I knew any second the 35 th
President of the United States, John F. Kennedy,
would appear. My legs trembled as I felt the
breeze of the motorcade approach me. I was perched

Public Spirited Gentleman Lees Suspicions Franklin
1,981 words
Benjamin Franklin, a Path beyond the Thought Like
many of the colonists of his generation, Benjamin
Franklins character was shaped by pragmatism,
rather than by religion or ideology. He was most
comfortable pursuing practical, achievable, goals.
Indeed, if Morgan is right, Franklins chief goal
was to be useful to his contemporaries. In
Franklin, Morgan has a truly great subject. A
self-educated polymath endowed with formidable
charm and genius, Franklin became the leading
figure in colonial poli...

The Ice Storm and Scene and Sensibility Ang Lee
Merritt McMullen Ang Lee directed both Ice Storm
and Scene and Sensibility; these are stories of
dysfunction families that have to deal with the
variety of problems that occur. Even with the
known fact that one story takes place in modern
day while the other occurs in Elizabethan times;
there are a number of similarities. As characters
search for stability, long for lust or love, and
keep their feelings locked inside; their downfall
soon follows, b...

Caribbean Islands African American
1,904 words
A major source of concern affecting many African
Americans today is the loss of their heritage.
Gloria Naylor has written a novel about a timeless
society where African roots and heritage are
celebrated, even in a modern world that smothers
cultural identity rather than encouraging or
celebrating diversity. Mama Day, a 1988 novel
written by Gloria Naylor details the lives and
customs of a colony of former slaves who are far
closer to their African roots and cultural
traditions than any blacks li...

Cruel And Unusual Punishment Abolished The Death Penalty
2,340 words
Today, in modern law, the death penalty is
corporal punishment. It is irreversible. It ends
the lives of those punished, instead of
temporarily imprisoning them. Although capital
punishment is not intended to inflict physical
pain, execution is the only corporal punishment
still applied to adults. The usual alternative to
the death penalty is life-long imprisonment. The
media commonly report that the American public
overwhelmingly supports the death penalty. More
careful analysis of public attit...

11 / 27 / 98 To Kill A Mockingbird By, Harper Lee
Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old
town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the
streets turned to red slop; grass grew on the
sidewalks, the courthouse sagged in the square.

accurately describes, is not conducive to young
children, loud noises, and games. But, the Finch
children and Dill must occupy themselves in order
to avoid boredom. Their surroundings are their
boundaries, but in their...

Although Tom Stoppard established his reputation
with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead when it
was first produced in 1966, the playwright often
appears reluctant to talk about his second play.

private person, repeatedly offers his interviewers
only cryptic responses to their questions about
the meaning of the piece. When asked whether or
not Rosencrantz and Guildenstern embodies any
particular philosophy, Stoppard replied that the
play does not...
