Expectations were met with severe disappointment for most blacks in America following the Civil War. Rather than gifting African-Americans with the freedom they dreamt about and fought hard for, the Emancipation led to an achievement of an ambiguous status in society, which created a larger problem of race that W.E.B Du Bois discusses in The Souls of Black Folk. In order to introduce this problem, Du Bois employs the use of a metaphor that compares the post-war life of Blacks in America to being stuck within a Veil as most held distorted images of self and self-worth. His use of the Veil metaphor emphasizes the severity of the “Negro Problem” in an attempt to convince white Americans that, in order for real progress of American industry and culture to take place, the problem must be solved.

Last night, I was sitting cross legged on my bed holding Chinese take out in my hand while watching the new episode of Orange Is The New Black, which premiered on Friday at 12 am, long past my bedtime. I was behind everyone else in the game, only on the second episode on the third day of its release. The second episode dealt with a lot of issues, aside from Piper being convinced she’s Litchfield’s new “gangsta”, that I related to on a personal level. I’ll try not to reveal too much, if you’re like me and still on the second episode, but the audience finally got an inside look on Maria, one of the girls from “Spanish Harlem’s”, back story. The audience learned that she struggled with her identity as the daughter of a Dominican drug dealer. I, for one, am nowhere near

As Jill Soloway’s TV show Transparent begins, the opening credits offer a glimpse into the ideas of gender. From the lighting of a candle, symbolizing light into the darkness of life, to a shimmering blue dress—that worn by a female impersonator—the opening credits reveal the process of becoming a transgender. Transitioning from a male to a female, or vice-versa, is a feat that only a few come to do. However, in the show Transparent, Mort Pfefferman transitions into Maura Pfefferman, a masculine figure who blossoms in femininity and bravery. While it is already a difficult task to come out as transgender, Maura has to deal with the drama revolving with her family.

As an example of (halo effect) in my life, being that I was a hair technique for 25 years and taught at a highly credited College University of Cosmetology, as well as attended many conventions plus operated and owned my own business. That being said, my family and friends assumed that working all those hours every day, including the weekends AS IF I WAS DOING IT FOR ENJOYMENT! When I was invited anywhere with them or just over for a meal, they expected me to bring all my equipment, including chemical products, and not only fix their hair, but do it for free! Which brings me to the (horn effect), I could see in the hair products I used on clients. Some clients would hear of a certain name brand product they would rather have, verses what was

"A Darker Shade of Magic", written by V.E. Schwab, tells the story of a Kell, an "antari" - someone who is able to cast magic using blood. In Kell's world, there are multiple Londons - grey, red, white, and black. Kell uses his magic to travel between these worlds, which have relatively the same structure but are wildly different, especially in the amount of magic and the way it is handled. One day, when Kell is out and about doing work for the royal family of Red London (the London he belongs to), he falls into possession of a powerful and dangerous talisman from the elusive Black London. After returning to Red London, unwittingly in possession of such a dangerous thing, Kell meets a pirate girl named Lila, who steals the talisman from him.

The church bell rings, ding, dong, ding. Hearing the bells ring takes me to a place where I can feel and see myself sitting in a church pew; waiting for the minister. Now, picture the minister appearing before the congregation with a black veil from his face. Mr. Hooper, the town minister, is wearing the veil which in turn stands for the burden of the people.

In my opinion, the movie Lorenzo’s Oil takes the viewers through the life of a family with a member that has adrenoleukodystrophy, or ALD. I feel like Lorenzo’s parents were correct in doing their own research and trying to create a treatment of some kind. If parents do not get involved with their children’s diagnosis and try to do more than just settle for what the doctors say, then we would not have a lot of advanced medicine that we do not. My initial opinion of the Odones is that they do not want people to tell them what to do or how to do it like when Lorenzo originally acted out in class. In the beginning, I felt that Lorenzo was just going through a phase and his school teachers were over reacting to such simple actions. After Lorenzo’s parents went to the doctors, I feel like the doctors did not want to try to figure out what's wrong, therefore the family’s initial reaction was shocked when the diagnosis was something as extreme as ALD. I felt it was justified, yet the parents should have acted a bit more. This comes from the mom only crying a little bit. If I was the parent in this situation I would be more proactive and find out how to help my child rather than to be sad about the medical diagnosis. I didn’t appreciate the parents, in general, at the ALD support group due to the fact that they cared more about themselves then their children. This was very rude in my eyes, when you are a parent you live for your child, not for yourself. I feel like if I was

"Lift not the painted veil", an 1818 sonnet by the British Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, depicts a world covered by a "painted veil". Even though this veil presents "unreal shapes", everybody accepts it as it is, except for one individual lifting it to seek love. However, this act plunges him into a state of disorientation and forlornity, since it has not lead him to discover truth or love. Therefore the sonnet's admonitory first line strongly discourages us from lifting the veil. By focussing on the connotatively contrasting use of metaphors, this essay aims at demonstrating how Percy Bysshe Shelley's sonnet "Lift not the painted veil", despite its deceptive, seemingly admonitory first line, actually encourages the individual to defy religion and to adopt atheism.

As human beings, we are predisposed to mostly fabricate instant judgements about one another. Our ability to attempt to make distinctions between friend or foe of another human being may possibly be traced back to our early days walking this Earth. Moreover, our superior than thou minds are almost naturally wired to deduce certain attributions that may be utilized to label others of our species. It can almost be inferred that our intricate brains are constantly in motion to perceive others based on our own biases. In the field of Psychological Science, most researchers identified this manifestation as the What is Beautiful is Good Effect. To be more precise, most researchers try to engage and analysis an element of this they listed

What you know and believe in can change at any moment. We see a first hand account of this in the book Night. Everyday we see the jews face the horrors of the Buna work camp, as a result of this we see most people change their ethics. As fight or flight instincts kick in, people abandon their family and friends to survive. Elie fights an internal battle to keep his father alive and strong during these tragedies. As others around him give in to the cruel punishment, Elie himself wants to drift towards the darkness. When people are faced with such cruel punishment everyone changes to some extent. For some the change is instant but for most the process of breaking their will is extensive.
