The Civil War devastated families all across the United States. Hundreds of thousands of people died and for many years after, the nation was still divided and trying to figure out how to move forward. Irene Hunt learned of stories of the Civil War from her grandfather who served in the Civil War. Hunt’s book, Across Five Aprils, relates to her childhood because this novel is nothing but a story of the war from one family. This book hit home hard and revealed concepts of realism by examining the effects the war had on everyday life.

Spike Lee’s ‘School Daze’ has certainly done good for introducing historically black colleges and black modern culture to Central America than I have seen any other movie about colleges especially black colleges at that it is through this film that I have realize that the media plays a big part in educating us but also can be the cause of not only bitterness that will be built up but also enlightening us black people of our history and also our actions against each other.

And it’s only school these confront a lot of issues that aren’t

Music is part of everyday life and serves as the center of many cultures across the world. Music brings out the best parts of a movie, a car ride, or even a special event. The purpose of music varies from artist to artist and different cultures. Every piece of music carries a unique message, but a song, in particular, carries meaning. “Runaway Love” by Ludacris, featuring Mary J. Blige, exploits the struggles of young girls by using rhetorical techniques, such as pathos, ethos, logos, tone, and visual rhetoric throughout the music video to raise national awareness about youth runaways.

In this essay, I will explain a cultural object from a scene from the movie Girls Trip, which was released on July 21, 2017. Girls Trip is about four women by the name of Ryan Pierce (Regina Hall), Sasha Franklin (Queen Latifah), Lisa Cooper (Jada Pinkett Smith), and Dina (Tiffany Radish), who have been friends for over 10 years, and are traveling to the annual Essence Festival in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Cameron in Modern Family is Mitchell's partner and adoptive father of Lily, who is a baby at the time. Cameron is portrayed as a typical, middle-aged gay man with a big, attention seeking personality. Although he is also shown as a loving, caring father with a big heart who is emotionally sensitive.

All in the Family takes an issue-per-episode approach; a cultural topic is brought up, addressed, somewhat resolved, and forgotten by the next episode. Modern Family takes a very different route while still making an impact. Rather than spending an entire episode talking about homosexuality and the many ways it is misunderstood, Modern Family makes in imporant by ignoring it. For example, in the episode “Up All Night”, Mitchell and Cameron Pritchett, the show’s gay couple, try a new method of parenting where they let their daughter Lily self-sooth and cry herself to sleep. The scene is comedic as Cam tries to soothe Lily without his husband knowing and ends up spraining his ankle in the process. While the overarching tone of the scene is humorous

What would it be like for hate and discrimination to follow someone all because of their preference on love? Same-sex couples fall in love only to realize that they are not “supposed” to be together. These couples have fought to enjoy every day activities that other couples may take for granted. Many same-sex couples are discriminated against because they are not what others consider the social norm. Modern Family explores Americas new attitude towards gay marriage. The TV series incorporates marriage equality through characters Cam and Mitch, a gay couple that lives together with an adopted daughter. They were not married when the series began because Proposition 8 at the time in California forbade them to, and they tied the knot once it was overturned. Modern family conveys that all marriages should be treated equally and anyone who is truly in love should be married to who they want to be despite their gender.
