The Symbolization Of The Fearless Girl And The Raging Bull

The Original 1991 Beauty and the Beast movie has many symbols. One of them is Lumière the candle holder. In about half way through the movie Belle goes to the west-wing when it is forbidden. When she enters the beast’s room she sees a flower but right when she was about to touch it the beast comes in and gives a big roar to frighten her off. It is then when she wants to escape and go back home with her father. When she was grabbing her coat to exit you hear her share a small piece of dialogue with the Lumière and Cogsworth. In this dialogue they asked Belle where she is going and she says she can’t be there another minute. With the cold wind coming in from the outside Lumière’s candles extinguish. Showing that the hope to turn back into their

Everyone needs hope in their lives for the good times and the bad. Hope is an essential part of human life, which is sometimes symbolized into objects. Legend by Marie Lu is a dystopian story about Day, a slum sector teen criminal, and June, a wealthy military prodigy. Marie Lu uses Day’s pendant to symbolize the hope and freedom Day and June yearn for.

Sitting bull was born in the 1830s on the plains of North America that we know as South Dakota. His actual name is Hunkeshnee which means “slow”. The Sioux tribe moved from place to place for hunting buffalo.

Sitting Bull was born in Dakota Territory. He was named Jumping Badger at birth, when he was fourteen years old he accompanied a group of Lakota warriors (which included his father and his uncle Four Horns) in a raiding party to take horses from a camp of Crow warriors. Jumping Badger displayed bravery by riding forward and counting coup on one of the surprised Crow, which was witnessed by the other mounted Lakota. Upon returning to camp his father gave a celebratory feast at which he conferred his own name upon his son.

Sitting Bull was a Lakota Sioux chief known for opposing the expansion of the American colonies onto Native American land. In 1874, the discovery of gold in the Black Hills of South Dakota had led to an increased interest in the Sioux territories, which Lakota people were reluctant to sell or otherwise depart with. During this time Sitting Bull led numerous attacks against federal troops that seeked to remove the Native Americans from their land, resulting in the Great Sioux Wars. In showing bravery and resistance towards an oppressive force, Sitting Bull took a stand that is remembered to this day.

On April 11, 2003 Cheryl Crazy Bull was inaugurated as the new president of Northwest Indian College. The inauguration was attended by local community leaders as well as college leaders from schools such as Western Washington University. Not only was Crazy Bull inaugurated to her leadership position, she was also adopted by the Lummi people in a tribal ceremony led by James and Lutie Hillaire, who robed her in a traditional Coast Salish blanket and sang songs to bless the upcoming role Crazy Bull would play. From the beginning, Crazy Bull hoped to focus on incorporating school and community life stating, “As president of Northwest Indian College, I believe my responsibility is to ensure that there is a strong link between the college experiences of

Sitting Bull was great leader and a great warrior. He was recognized for many things including the Battle of Little Big Horn and the leader of Strong Hearts, He was the Sash Wearer. He spent much of his life taking care of his tribe and all Native Americans. Sitting Bull is the greatest Sioux chief and one of the greatest Native American chiefs ever.

In 1831 an indian child was born, of the Sioux Nation and the Hunkpapa Tribe. His father, Sitting Bull, and mother, Her-holy-door, did not name him Sitting Bull, he was named Jumping Badger. He was never called Jumping Badger, he was called Slow because of his willful and deliberate ways.

To demonstrate how this show has managed to weave positive feminist ideals into every aspect of the show, it is not hard to find examples in almost every episode. Truly one of the strongest example of this takes place is the episode “The Pawnee Ranger,” where Leslie fights the discriminating policies of the “males only” Pawnee Rangers, which is led by her boss Ron Swanson. They proceed to fight over their rivaling youth camp organizations, with Ron's spartan Pawnee Rangers, who learn to appreciate fishing, camping, and complete silence, up against Leslie's supportive and indulgent Pawnee Goddesses, who practice arts and crafts and self confidence building exercises. This episode, while still remaining to be very funny, also shows the importance of gender equality, depicting the value in teaching young girls to be self confident, independent thinkers who understand and appreciate working together with boys.

In many ways today's society, even though women have come a long way, we still live in a patriarchal world. There are many examples of this in everyday life, whether it be that there aren't very many women CEO's or the mere fact that we've yet to have a woman president. No matter where you live, there is the presence of a male dominated world. It especially extends into the working fields. There are professions that are categorically ‘women's' jobs like nursing, school teacher, or secretarial jobs. The rest of the professional world is mainly male dominated, i.e. engineering, CEO's of major companies, and Law Firms. Which brings us to the movie I picked to watch, Legally Blonde?

In a society dominated by male superheroes, it is not that often that a female character is able to step forward and defend the world. There have been quite a few female superheroes throughout the ages of popular culture, including the Canadian Marvel super-heroine, Aurora ("Marvel"), and DC Comic's character, Black Canary (Kanigher, and Infantino). Yet for every one female superhero that is encountered, there are at least a dozen more male superheroes to stand around—and often in front of—her. Even more frustratingly, the female superheroes are often merely there to be the gendered counterpart to the much more powerful, dominant male superheroes. There have been few women who have stood out as being independent, admirable sources of

     “Raging Bull” (1980) is not a so much a film about boxing but more of a story about a psychotically jealous, sexually insecure borderline homosexual, caged animal of a man, who encourages pain and suffering in his life as almost a form of reparation. Martin Scorsese’s masterpiece of a film drags you down into the seedy filth stenched world of former middleweight boxing champion Jake “The Bronx Bull” LaMotta. Masterfully he paints the picture of a beast whose sole drive is not boxing but an insatiable obsessive jealously over his wife and his fear of his own underling sexuality. The movie broke new ground with its brutal unadulterated no-holds-bard look at the vicious sport of boxing by bringing the camera

It doesn’t look like the ‘bull-pen’ mentality is about to change any time soon but that does not mean women should take the abuse lightly. Remember Muriel Siebert, widely known as the ‘first lady of Wall Street’? Siebert was the first woman to buy a seat on the New York Stock Exchange and was the first woman to head one of the exchange’s member firms, and she barrelled through this male-dominated domain with grit and grace.
