The original thought that photos were far superior to other visual aids have been re-evaluated in consideration of graphic artwork. The invention of photography initially provided the belief that a photo was simply a reproduction of the original. The progression of improved photographic equipment supplied the photographer with the choice of what to include or exclude from a picture. As an example, Jacob Riis transferred his belief of a sturdy, upstanding family with high morals into his photos by taking pictures of families in their apartments. However, his photo labeled “Five Cents A Spot” reflect an alternate picture of men and women packed in one apartment supported his viewpoint of the people’s poverty. Considering the subject matter of his reports it is a small wonder that his photos were not connected with a direct bias for both article and

The copyrightable element of the 1963 image should be covered under American copyright law, but the content of the image, including originality and use that need to be defined. Elements that should be protected include the photograph itself. This includes “selecting and arranging the costume, draperies, and other carious accessories in said photograph, arranging the subject so as to present graceful outlines (Burrow-Giles Lithographic Co. v. Sarony, 45, 48 (4 S.Ct. 1884)).” In the 19th century, this declaration was the first time the question of a photograph’s inherent copyright was explained, and is now a standard in the Copyright Act of 1976, where all “two-dimensional and three-dimensional works of fine, graphic, and applied art, photographs, and prints…that can identify separately from the utilitarian aspects.” (17 U.S.C. § 101) are considered pictorial works and protected under copyright.

“The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start to the top”- O.J. Simpson. June 12, 1994 was the day O.J Simpson got away with murder. Nicole Brown was murdered with her companion, Ron Goldman, on June 12, 1994.

On June 7th, 1997 a man by the name of James Byrd Jr. was wrongfully murdered in Jasper, Texas. The three murderers acted out of their negative racial bias toward James Byrd Jr., two of the three murderers were sentenced to death and the third to life in prison. Their names were Shawn Allen Barry, Lawrence Russell Brewer, and John William King. Brewer and King were well known white supremacists in the area with tattoos depicting their beliefs and belonging to their hate groups. Barry was sentenced to life in prison for his involvement that he did not play as big of a role in the death, however he was the one who was driving so he too, should have been charged equally with the others.

In every small town there is a police district we depend on. We depend on them to protect us , and serve in the most positive way for the people. The importance of this topic in my eyes is that the Police get-away with things that they shouldn’t. What inspired me the most is the Trayvon Martin case, and the Eric Garner case that really opened my eyes to see that the black community is so broken and we as a unit cannot seem to fix it.

The Case of Emmett Till Discrimination has been a problem in America since before we were a country. The murder of Emmett Till one of the first racial hate murders that took the nation and had helped them open their eyes to see what was truly happening around them. Emmett Till was just a young boy visiting some family who had suffered from an act of racism. Due to the large amount of publicity about the horrific death of young Emmett Till it caused a spark in the Civil Rights Movement. The murder of a young African American boy caused by an act of racism caused the black community to rise together and demand justice for Emmett and to be treated equally.

In the film “Obey-Giant”, Shepard Fairey, a contemporary artist, tells us the story of his work. Formally, Shepard was working in a print shop when one of his buddies wanted to try to make a print, so they ended up making his well-known “Andre the giant has a Posse” stickers and posted them anywhere they could. As a result, people began to wonder what they meant. Henceforth, Shepard started making street art like the Andre the giant poster and then going into a more political nature to lead people to ask questions. Simultaneously, he started taking his art and turning it into T-shirts and other gear for him to sell. At this time most of Shepard's political work was him going against something. However, he ended up deciding to create something

In 1995, O.J. Simpson, one of the most acclaimed National Football League players, was tried on two counts of murder. This is a case that would stay inclusive forever in the eyes of most Americans; and that would change the way America’s legal system operated. During the trial racism evolved around Simpson and multiple inferences led to an especially controversial definitive, later known as the “trial of the century.”

Shepard Fairey, the artist behind the Barack Obama presidential election “Hope” poster, chose a photograph as an aid to achieving an ideal pose, that was taken by an Associated Press, AP, photographer, Mannie Garcia.

This leads to the question of whether illustrators and artists should be allowed to use photographs under the copyright “Fair Use” clause without having to ask permission or pay royalties to the original artist or copyright holder.

The events that occurred between the Aztecs and Spanish Conquistadors have many sides and opportunities for debate. One of the most debated topics being; Who was more savage and who was more Civil?

Though it may seem that the Spanish were more advanced than the Aztecs, the Aztecs and Spanish were actually quite close to being equal in technological advancements.
