In Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, Walter Lee Younger goes from being selfish to being the man his family needs. The road to becoming the man they needed was very rocky and difficult at times.

George, the father, didn’t like everyone around him changing but dep down inside, he was changing as well. His wife left him because she started to feel things that he just couldn’t give her. Although, when George saw how beautiful his wife was in the court room he himself saw change. He saw change in how he feels towards his wife, she used to be the woman that cooked and cleaned. In that court room he began to feel love, once he began to feel that he had begun to realize how much better it was to be able to feel things like that. When he began to feel love for his wife, that is one instance where George was staying true to the feelings inside of him. Not caring what everyone around him thought, he did it for himself, because he wanted to feel

The film titled, “The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter”, looks at the roles of women during and after World War II within the U.S. The film interviews five women who had experienced the World War II effects in the U.S, two who were Caucasian and three who were African American. These five women, who were among the millions of women recruited into skilled male-oriented jobs during World War II, shared insight into how women were treated, viewed and mainly controlled. Along with the interviews are clips from U.S. government propaganda films, news reports from the media, March of Time films, and newspaper stories, all depicting how women are to take "the men’s" places to keep up with industrial production, while reassured that their

1 In Zora Hurston's short story, "Sweat," [Titles] Delia Jones is married to a very dominant and powerful man. Skye [Sp] Jones is his name, and he is an abusive man who has no respect for Delia.

Using tables and statistical evidences helped Gladwell to support his claims because throughout the essay, he has been trying to convince people with different mentalities by providing studies, tables, and other statistical evidences. He also added anecdotes from the story of Marita to add emotional appeal. As mentioned in the selection “The student's name is Marita. She's an only child who lives in a single-parent home. Her mother never went to college..….”. One can vividly cite the author’s use of various modes of persuasion as Pathos and Logos.

“I don’t like it when George asks you to meet with him alone at dark!” cried Mary. My friend George told me there was something big that he thought I would be interested in. My wife Mary doesn’t like George that much because he always seems to get me in trouble.

He was given a house to live in, yet never had a true home. He was taken under the family name yet would never be treated as a part of it. Even Don Pedro sook a more “fitting” companion to spend time with. Freely gifted to his brother, Don would never receive the same money, status or respect. Now I’m sure you can come to see where the bitterness and spurn arose from, things he had no control over defined his life, fitting him with more than enough motivation to spoil the happiness of the residents of Messina. Yet being a shakespearean comedy, focused on displaying the comic and follies of misunderstandings, it can fairly said he lacks the depth and development of some of Shakespeare's darker villains from tragedies, rendering him an underdeveloped and arguably uninteresting antagonist. Melancholy and sullen by nature, he ironically believes that his brooding makes him appear strong, but it actually shows him to be a coward. Don John is too caught up in self-pity to do anything that could better his life, so he simply lives to destroy the lives of

The movie is about two teenagers, David and Jennifer who get drawn into the 1950s fictional, black-and-white television sitcom, Pleasantville.

As they play along in the perfect town of Pleasantville their presence influences drastic changes.

Finding the Love of Your Life was written by Neil Clark Warren, PH.D., and in this book he explains his ten basic principles of finding the right mate to spend your life with. He teaches people how to understand the two different types of love: passionate love and companionate love.
