Intro: Tear down the walls! Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down This Wall" and Robert Frost's "Mending Wall" both talk about how walls separate people from each other, but they talk about different walls and different ideas. Those walls create a physical, as well as a mental barrier for the narrator and neighbor in Robert Frost's "Mending Walls" and Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down This Wall" that hinders the characters from relating to each other in a certain way. Although the style and tone of these two authors

young girl, I cherished the moments my family and I had while we were outside during the summer. Usually going outside consisted of me riding my newly bought, white and pink bike that I still wobbled on because it was too big for me or climbing the apple tree in the front yard, but this time, my parents wanted my brother and I to help garden.

Ever since the first day of class, one theme remained constant throughout the semester- “the dangers of a single story.” Standing tall at the top of the syllabus, I knew that this phrase would become something more than words. That night we all watched a video where we were introduced and barely scratched the surface of a different way to perceive the world. Looking back, through this class, I gained a new sense of global awareness from the myriad of texts; each of which built upon previous texts

Snow White’s favorite thing to do with her real mother was to spend time on the top of the hill near their castle where an apple tree stood. They would pick apples and eat them until they were full and then happily returned home. After her mother passed, her father was fancied by the Queen and not long after they ended up getting married.
