I am so sorry that you have to go through all this. As I was reading your letter I saw that you did not want to show any of your “pain” and or shout to Margot, Van Daan, Dussel and dad, I do not think that is the best of your ideas I feel that they should know how you feel. And tell them everything that they caused for you. Even if they do scream all the more. You shouldn't just go by how they feel about you when your quiet or when you talk. Honestly, I think they are just jealous of you. But there's something I have never told anyone but since I feel all of your pain.I haven't told anyone Ever. I feel that I can finally tell you what happened when I “disappeared” last year. Well, I never disappeared I was on a trip to California, well I had just gotten a job at a

“Hell You Talmbout”, a new protest song from Janelle Monáe’s Wondaland collective, is striking in its simplicity. Monáe (along with fellow Wondaland member Jidenna) made headlines yesterday for marching in Philadelphia against police brutality, and this song sounds like an extension of that march. Drums dominate the scene; they are at once tribal but organized, like a powerfully primal marching band. The lyrics are simple as well, but there’s nothing more to say - “Walter Scott - say his name! Jerame Reid - say his name! Philip White - say his name!” Three men who died at the hands of police, all in the last year; all three are widely considered to have been unfairly killed. These are not the only three, either. Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, Sean Bell, Freddie Gray, Aiyana Jones, Sandra Bland, Kimani Grey, John Crawford, Michael Brown, Miriam Carey, Sharonda Singleton, Emmett Till, Tommy Yancy, Jordan Baker, and Amadou Diallo make up the rest of the verses. Their deaths range from days gone by, where racism

Every record put out by the world-class jazz bassist Christian McBride is well worth checking out. After digging Live at the Village Vanguard with his trio, the bassist returns to the big band format with Bringin’ It, an honorable follow-up to the 2011 Grammy Award winner The Good Feeling.

I am writing you this letter because my father won’t stand up for me. I just want you to know you were correct your mother did die in 1993. Because my Grandmother wouldn’t have raised a daughter to be like you are. You are a conniving BITCH!!! She told me years ago that I was to get her wedding band and that you and her went and bought Olivia and Michelle a ring a piece also. You know all of this but you haven’t told anyone the truth about it. I don’t even know why you want any of her stuff because you never come around until my grandfather passed away who you treated like shit also. Instead of being hateful and spiteful you need to do the right thing but I know that will not happen. I also want you to know you are the reason she

i’m not offended. i’m just a little bit uncomfortable when someone orders me: what to write, what not to write, and what kind of words should i put, or even accused me of doing something wrong. it's the mindset of "if you're not with me, you're dead wrong".

In 1852, a young woman named Caroline Richardson travels out into the vast wild of the American west. She and her fellow pioneers, holding fast to their strength, bear through the trials of the overland pass searching for the wealth of gold in the far-off promised land of California. Despite warnings of a cholera epidemic, they barrel forth with the promise of riches and adventure. One night in Salt Lake City, she and the other emigrants set up camp for the night in a local potato patch. Richardson wrote that she and her companions were “as high as we shall be in the world.” Feeling particularly gleeful, they found a musician--a fiddler--and gathered the company. Together they danced

“The end justifies the means,” is a saying that almost everyone stumbles across at least once in their lives, but does anybody really stop to think about the actual meaning of it? Well, its technical definition would be that the end result excuses whatever was done to achieve it. So the next question would be, is that all this statement means? No. This saying is a simple way of stating that if there is a reason for what you do, a fight to achieve something, the treachery and torture that you endure and enforce is balanced by meeting the goal. A perfect example of the truth in this sentence is the movie Lean On Me, in which a hot-headed principal desperately struggles to regain control of Eastwood High School, and return it to it’s former state

The movie Stand By Me is a great portrayal of a group of four young friends who set out to find a dead body.

Select several works of art that reflect cultural evolution and progress, and cultural regression and degeneration? It has been said that many forms of art, from poetry to music, contribute to the way we feel, think and see, and helps us to discover the hidden beauty of art. Oftentimes, art provides a historical connection to social and secular ideas. The messages in these ideas serve many purposes, whether it is rhetorically, visually or politically saying something about the way a particular artist feels or the issues the artist is trying to address. The focus of this brief paper is on the works of performance artists, theatrical artists and blackface minstrels and how their art helped draw attention to the inequities in America during their time period. Music- Considered Gaye's most unusual, yet successful album by critics, Gaye's album is generally thought of as his "rebellion"

Stand for something. So, can I tell you a real quick story about that, because the creative director who came up with that line, we were on the phone together. He was like, you know, it’s so refreshing to see a company where the values translate into the work in such a way and it all comes back to serving these customers. He was like, this is a chance to stand for something. That is where he got into that and I’m glad that you like that line as well, because –

I cannot say enough about how thankful I am for you showing me how to be a musher and everything else you do for me. From the payment of the food for the dogs to fixing the sleds we broke to bringing us on our fun and exciting adventures, you were always there at my side. Whenever I thought I was a piece of junk you would always find a way for me not to think like that and find something I was good at. I don’t know what my life would be without you in it because you play a major role in it and I’m glad for that. I was looking for inspiration from some quotes and I found one by someone of the name of Ibn Batutta. It said “Traveling- It leaves you speechless, then turn you into a storyteller.” and I thought that is so true and that all the

Ruthless and scheming opportunist Curtis Taylor Jr. (Jamie Foxx) is understandably considered the villain in this story, but in actuality, all of the characters are truly awful people, haha. Birds of a selfish feather flock together. Let's start with Ms. Jones: Deena pretended to resist being lead of The Dreams and in Curtis' bed, but early-on during "Love You I Do," she's too elated to catch his eye while trying on a gown. Guess she made up her mind in that moment to sleep her way to the top, 'round and around. Like the poltroon she was, she continued to play coy when Effie called her out for "stealing her dream and her man." I was like "Bish, whatchu' still lying for?! Might as well own it!" Later, Deena watches her bio-reel and has this disgusting look of pride on her face when her wedding to Curtis is covered. I wanted to slap her so hard. She only tries to right her wrongs with Effie when she's had enough of Curtis' controlling ways. Though it's saying the least that Effie was slighted, she was no bag of sugar herself beforehand. She constantly bossed around and belittled her group-mates, Deena and Lorrell, and was only concerned with what was best for her. Not to mention, she had a horrible attitude: even after falling completely down on her luck, she still needed to be scolded by Marty (Danny Glover) to shape up. C.C. (Keith Robinson; what does C.C. stand for, anyway?) was a gullible,

When and why did Ravel compose “Ma mère l’Oye" (Mother Goose Suites)? How does each movement of the piece convey the story line of the fairytales? Compare and contrast the piano version vs. the orchestrated version of the piece.
