Pretty in Pink

Alicia Moore (Pink) Alicia Moore, or Pink as she is better known, has become a music sensation around the United States. My reason for choosing her as a topic is the fact that she was born and raised in Doylestown, Pennsylvania my hometown.

women’s rights have always been the main topic in all of them. In the video “Kristen Bell Has The Cheap Labor Your Company Is Looking For: Women!”, the first episode in HuffPost’s new series, “Celebs Have Issues,” Kristen Bell had introduced the company Pink Resourcing, which a U.S. business provide female cheap labor to other companies.

"And Faith . . . thrust her own pretty had into the street, letting the wind play with the pink ribbons in her cap," is a great example of how Hawthorne correlates Faith with the pink ribbons of innocence (184).
