The type of court role shown during the music video was adjudication. Which means the primary goal played by the courts is to process the “defendant who have been arrested by the police and formally charged with criminal offense.” I personally believe this is true, since the music video clearly shows the defendant already in custody of the police and on trial for his crimes. Another reason why I believe adjudication explains the video is because there is a neutral third party which is the judge and jury that concluded that the defendant was found guilty. Proving that the court role shown is clearly adjudication.
The judge, in the movie, actually listened to the prosecutor’s witnesses and decided there was enough probable cause to move forward to a trial. Many judges are often too busy to examine the facts of the case before making a probable cause determination as stated in our text.
Adoff makes music with the words and space in “Street Music” by writing all the descriptive words by separating each letter of the word with spaces and the words that made a sound would be written normally, without spaces in between the letters. For example, at the beginning of the poem, the speaker describes the city and where the noise in this city is coming from. Hence, he separated his words into letters with spaces, an example from is when the speaker states that “T h i s c i t y:/ t h e / a l w a y s / n o i s e / g r i n d i n g” (1-5). Another example of this is “an o r c h e s t r a” (24). On the other hand, words that are used for the actual sounds are written normally in this poem, such as “slamming from bus tires” and “taxi horns”
During this documentary, the viewers get an inside look at how criminal proceedings work. In the courtroom, the most important players are the prosecution, defense, and judge. The judge is in the room to make sure the proceeding runs smoothly and to settle any arguments that arise. The prosecution is there to accuse the defendant for whatever crime he or she has been convicted of. The defense is there to defend the person being convicted of the crime. There is also a bailiff who is there to oversee the court and make sure everyone there is safe. The bailiff will bring evidence form the defense or prosecution to the judge, as nobody is to approach the bench without the judge calling attorneys to the
Allen’s music video introduces half-naked women committing sexual acts in a provocative scene to establish the role of women in pop culture as dehumanizing. The scene starts with Allen joining the female dancers, clothed enough to barely cover their genitals, beginning their dance routine. As Allen sings, the dancers are seen performing the twerk, and the video zooms on the dancer’s genitals as the dancers lick their hands and slap their genitals. Allen’s incendiary scene highlights women as needing to be overly sexualized in music videos and performing suggestive behaviors to be included in pop culture. This scene dehumanizes women in music videos because women are expected to behave and dress in a specific manner or not be included in the
(1) Arresting someone who appears to be intoxicated would constitute as discrimination unless the person who appears to be intoxicated does something unlawful like causing a disturbance or endanger others and themselves. However if a police officer suspects criminal activity or the suspect is acting or appear intoxicated they have the right to search and frisk. Whether or not the suspect should be arrested should depend on how they act, not how they look. Police have the right to detain people for even just acting intoxicated to protect the well being for themselves and others.
Provided with other preemptive measures to guarantee justice is achieved in the criminal trial proceedings. Additionally, the courts help facilitate an understanding of the legal process as to help the accused and their families be prepared in their defence. As well as providing an impartial and competent assessment in all stages of the trial process.
The music video “Wings” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis helps to tell the story of a hip-hop style song addressing the issue of consumerism that we have today in America. In this music video, Nike shoes are used to portray an expensive item that people desire to have. Nike shoes are an effective symbol for this as many Americans attempt to impress others by buying shoes and showing off the purchase. In many cases, because the possession of status items is more important than saving the money for basic needs, people buy luxury products (expensive shoes, for example) even though they are difficult to afford. The message of this music video is that people wrongfully believe that the possession and displaying of status items makes them superior
There are many theories abound as to why there is a necessity for regulatory oversight especially within a democratic society the most prevalent of these is the need for this type of administrative adjudication is the nature of people themselves, meaning people being as they are like nice things and like a lot of negative universal aspects tend to be motivated more by simple want than need. This is also a telling sign when those that are caught generally say that they did what they did in the commission of their crimes because they simply wanted the “American Dream” and the process in which these people arrived at committing these crimes and violations was because “ends justified the means” of course this is Machiavellian thinking or so it
In a perturbing video released from the content aggregating site World Star Hip Hop, a secret ritual for new fraternity initiates known as “pledging” displayed petrified students lined up, passing a raw egg yolk from mouth to mouth . Older students stood laughing and screaming in disgust as they watched the others reluctantly “pass the egg”. Though only sustaining 459,120 views, the societal retaliation was clear; disgusted viewers urged that colleges promote higher learning and participating in such activities is not worth the compromise of the healthy learning environment. Although this video seemed quite harmless and immature, the repercussions were seen globally; similar activities have reaped 212 lives from college hazing aloneii, while
When thinking of a country music video, what comes to mind? Most would think of an old dirt road, beer, trucks, and girls. That’s not what a country music video is about, it’s about showing what the song is trying to say, through a video. A music video shouldn’t be about how good or bad the song is; you shouldn’t even hear the song when you watch the video. It should be about helping to tell and show the story, the way the artist wants the viewer to see it. A great country music video consists of three things: a narrative, visual effects, and the camera and lightening of it. Sturgill Simpson’s music video of “Brace for Impact” is not a typical country music video, but it is a country music video. It is an extraordinary and effective video,
1. What is meant by a dual court system in the U.S.? What impact does the court system in the U.S. have on criminal law?
In general, watching this video enhanced my knowledge on how not only prosecutor can uplift individual spirit in positive way, but also how we could make a difference in our homes, social gatherings and everywhere. A help rendered by the speaker not only changed Christopher’s life, but saved community money, and enriched the speaker’s life with happiness and motivation to spread the good news. We all can do this by paying attention and rendering help to people in need of help in one way or the other. Prior to watching this video, I never knew that prosecutor have such powerful power in criminal justice
The question of which Court Justice appointment system is ideal begs the question of whether or not the most democratic system is always the best. In this essence, “the one person one vote” concept in judicial elections is not the preferable method of selecting judges. While flawed, the preferable method is the gubernatorial appointment because it avoids the pressures of the majority.
Sex has always been used to sell products, from fruit to IT services, and music is no exception to this method. Although women, in all forms, are frequently sexualized and labeled throughout the media, there appears to be a form of “hyper-sexualization” that occurs in the music industry. Female music artists are regularly urged to wear more revealing clothing and are often held to higher beauty standards. As written by Jennifer Stevens Aubrey and Cynthia M. Frisby in their article, “Sexual Objectification in Music Videos: A Content Analysis Comparing Gender and Genre,” “compared to male artists, female artists were more sexually objectified, held to stricter appearance standards, and more likely to demonstrate sexually alluring behavior” (Aubrey and Frisby). It is well known that the way women are represented among the media is not the way women are like in real life, which are causing detrimental effects to young women growing up in this day and age. Some of these negative effects include issues in self-esteem, unobtainable beauty standards, and the promotion of premature
Gender is a part of our everyday life. Of course there are two genders, a man and a woman. However, these genders seemed to get abused by media on how these genders should be defined. A man should be aggressive, tough, and strong, while a woman she be passive, soft, and sensitive. The part of media that abused these stereotypes the most were music videos. From Rock N’ Roll to Hip-Hop to Country, most of the artist within these genres abused the gender identity of a woman and a man. In the culture of Hip-Hop music videos, the men are rich and all thug like while all the women are dancing around the men with no clothes on. Lupe Fiasco’s music video,”Bitch Bad” identifies how media shows what a “bad bitch” means to a boy and a girl. The video does stereotype women by using them as sex objects and stereotypes men as thugs but it shows how a “bad bitch” is perceived by two different people.
