The NFL players kneeling for the national anthem is not that big of a deal because it does not affect my life, they are standing up for what they believe in, and everyone has the right to their own actions and opinions. Kneeling for the national anthem, in some eyes, is very disrespectful because the national anthem is honoring those who have fought for our country. Although, in other people’s eyes, they believe that it is acceptable to kneel because of the police brutality in our country. In “Why Colin Kaepernick and I Decided to Take a Knee”, Eric Reed states that him and Kaepernick sat down during the national anthem because of the police brutality and to stand up for the people who do not have a voice.…

She was one of the professionals featured in the documentary. Since she is an activist, who actually lived through historical events from the film, she deserves all credibility to serve as a primary source. The stories she spoke about in the film are her first hand encounters as a black woman who lived through the 1960s. For example, when explaining the moment she almost was locked up and imprisoned, she says, “That's why when someone asks me about violence, I just find it incredible because what it means is that the person who's asking that question has absolutely no idea what black people have gone through, what black people have experienced in this country since the time the first black person was kidnapped from the shores of Africa”.…

Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams, and T.I.’s 2013 music video for their hit single “Blurred Lines” depicts three females in little clothing performing seemingly innocent acts that have sexual connotations while dancing around and engaging with the three well dressed men who seem to only be watching the women, which sets the tone that the women are only there to serve as eye candy for the men. The first thing the 503.3 million viewers of the “Blurred Lines” music video on Vevo saw was Thicke lying in bed with a topless model while his arm assumes a dominant position over her body almost completely blocking her from the view of the camera. While this position may be perceived as simply cuddling, in the realms of this music video that reflects…
In J.Coles “She Knows” he uses a juvenile young man to demonstrate the life of a average suburban family and the struggles they go through. By looking at the the two scenes spoken about in this essay, we can see what exactly J.Cole means in his title “She Knows”, which most viewers don’t see; this is important because J.Cole changes the meaning of “She Knows” through the entire music video. The first important scene starts with the young man being dropped off by his mother and father on his way to school. This scene is significant because previously before the young man left the house he stole money from his parents and the young mans mother gazes at him in the car as if she knew what exactly he had done. The second important scene starts with…
In Beyoncé performances and lyrics on stage, she always makes a visual and speaks on how it's important to be an individual, your own independent person that is powerful. Although, if women were to be more prominent in the world, life, family and work priories will crash fiercely. As long as women are bearing the children in our species, women will not view child rearing and child care in the same way as men do, and will prioritize the responsibilities around it differently. Beyoncé sings in harmony about how women run the world, but why don't we actually run it, women are capable of so many astonishing accomplishments, but they're all hidden by the shadow of a man. Women deserve to be prominent in the world we now live if it’s what they desire for; it shouldn’t be that hard to treat women…
Analysis of Meghan Trainor’s “Dear Future Husband” “Women realized that males were not the only group in our society who supported sexist thinking and behavior that females could be sexist as well” (hooks 1). Meghan Trainor has proved that she fits in this category through her music, specifically in her song “Dear Future Husband”.

In this paper I will argue that Meghan Trainor’s song “Dear Future Husband” is antifeminist. Immediately the title, “Dear Future Husband”, is the first thing to stick out.…
