Through the movie, “Slumdog Millionaire” directed by Danny Boyle I learned about discrimination relating to social class. Additionally, in the song, “Small Town Boy” by Bronski Beat, I learned about how gay individuals may be judged by society. Through further analyzing and exploring these texts, I could seek real-life examples of how human rights can be violated. These texts prove that we must move away from the deep-rooted

I have always been a fan of Michael Jackson, and the reason why I picked this song is because it presents a strong message.

world whizzed past me in the comfort of the car, the cold blanket of air unable to reach my pale skin through closed windows and blasting heaters. The radio was quiet, the music providing ambience on top of the rumbling of the car’s engine. The last beat of the current song ended, filling the car with silence. After a few heartbeats, on came the next song, and I turned my head to look at the radio, hand outstretching to turn the dial up. As the strong, pulsing notes of the electric guitar filled my

John but within seconds ran upto him and said, “Poor boys ain’t allowed in our hangout.” Without anytime to respond the group of kids started to tease and harass John. Eric Hunter said, “ Poor boys in this town need a beat down.” Josh Doors replied, “ Not just any beat down, a beat down with our hard, bone, knuckles.” “Just leave me alone, I just come to this school because I have

My palms were sweaty as I began the process of gearing up for what was ahead of me. The many ideas of what I could possibly accomplish today were whirling around in my head. One beat up shin guard after another, I covered them with a crystal clear white sock to match the dark colored jersey. I took a deep breath lacing up my new cleats I’ve been longing to wear out. The talk from around me was not my focus at the moment, so I stood quietly and put in my ear buds. Soon enough my nerves got

Every musical composition is divided into measures, units of a set number of beats, and certain beats naturally carry more emphasis than others. The most important is the downbeat, the first beat of a measure. The downbeat is always naturally accented, so there is no need to provide an accent mark over it.

Clayton always wanted to acquire Cool Papa’s identity, but after overcoming challenges he was able to discover his own self-identity. Clayton had to compromise his values to join the Beat Boys because he didn’t want to be a “cute kid”, but that experience helped him find his individual voice that was different from Cool Papa’s. The underground subway symbolizes Clayton’s passage from one phase of life to another. In contrast to the

Noah had snuck out plenty of times, but never with a camera in his hand. By now, he had the process down to a science, how to slip away and return unnoticed, how to convince his mother he really was sick and not nursing a hangover, and how to bribe Angela when she came close to the truth and threatened to bring his operations to an end. All of them were so distracted anyway, caught up in their own thunderstorm, whisked away on their own adventures and not noticing the saga they could be participating
