Biking through the blizzard in a flatland forest with my face red and frozen I’m listening to the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack when all of a sudden I find someone biking beside me, I take off my headphones to say hi, as he hears the song “to be human again” belting out of my headphones he laughs and proceeds, making me feel if I had said something wrong, once I get to school I realize he has told my entire class about me listening to disney and they all proceed to call me childish and gay, listening to whatever I wanted was something of which I believed wasn’t something to be ashamed of but living in a dutch village with a population of 10,000 most of which who are farmers can change that very quickly.

    Rap Gender Stereotypes

    The article “Daughters of the Blues: Women, Race, and Class Representation in Rap Music Performance,” sheds light on how women in rap have been disproportionately represented. Dating back to the 1920s, black women have successfully been “contest[ing], protest[ing], and affirm[ing] working-class ideologies of black womanhood (187)” through the blues. Notable blues singers, such as Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Ida Cox, paved the way for women MCs today to speak out about their experiences of being a black working-class woman. The four categories of women rappers that have emerged are: “Queen Mother,” “Fly Girl,” “Sista with Attitude,” and “The Lesbian.”…

    Public Speaking Stereotypes

    I’m most proud of my three years in debate for three reasons: I became a better public speaker, it allowed me to expand my diction, and it taught me how to formulate better essays and speeches. Public speaking is the greatest skill that one can possess; it can be the difference between being respected or viewed as a coward. In order to be a great public speaker one must be able to utilize powerful language, so that he/she can persuade others to follow him/her. Finally, the last but not least important skill that I mastered was that I was able to formulate essays and speeches more effectively, and by possessing this skill I will be able to succeed in writing reports for both school and later in…
