Our mother expected so much from us it was hard to differentiate our roles from what a woman should do and what a man should…

To do this, we collectively did research about the history of the content of the ads, the brand and the creator of it, and the models used. Lastly, we analyzed the aesthetics of the ad to pull it all…
The crack of the rifles shooting into the air could only send me back. The volley of shots making me remember that day. I could only think if I made the right call that night.

In the book called “The Conservative Heart,” Arthur C. Brooks talks about the image problem facing today’s conservatives and offers his solution. The audience that he is speaking to in this book seems to be the politicians, in this case that are either running or considering to run, for the republican nomination for presidency. The image problem that he talks about is that conservatives too often resemble Ebenezer Scrooge. This is because of them opposing increases in the minimum wage,…
