Peggy Hebard Abnormal Analysis

Decent Essays
Of all the videos that I watched, I decided to choose Abnormal by Peggy Hebard because the title sounds attractive for me; the story that she created with her memories and the artworks in the museum sound really fantastic; finally, the form of how she expressed showing feelings in a neutral voice. Likewise, I really enjoy the form of how she explains her ethnicity, childhood, the social problems few years ago, and how hard is for a person from another country, with other religion, and so forth lives in a place where everyone show indifference to you. Another point that I really enjoy was the artwork that she

    Throughout the Harlem Renaissance, Nella Larson wrote intermittent narratives that emulated portions of her life, such as Passing; these narratives emulate her desire for access to wealth, middle-class comfort, and white privileges. Larsen herself, scuffles with identity after her Negro father from the Virgin Islands dies at her age of two, and her Danish mother marries a man of her race and nationality. At the age of five, Larsen attends a small private school whose pupils were mostly German and Scandinavian. Labeling herself as a mulatto¬¬, a daughter of an interracial family she does not identify a specific connection with her West Indian relatives. Passing protagonists, Irene Redfield, and Clare Kendry also struggle with racial and sexual…

    In the beginning of any case, it is the judges responsibility to determine if the circumstantial evidence presented is enough to allow the Prosecution to take this matter to trial. It is then the duty of the judge to inform the Defendant of their rights and to offer a plea or take it to trial if it is a reasonable case. In the case of Peggy Hettrick, the circumstantial evidence included the defendant seeing, but not reporting Ms. Hettrick’s body on his way to school (Joshua Yager, 2011). Masters footprints were located at the scene of the crime, indicating that he was at the scene of the crime. Upon police investigation, drawings of weapons, female genitalia that had been mutilated in the same manner as Hettrick, and another of a person being…

    The video that I chose is from this year’s Primetime Emmy Awards, which celebrates works of excellence in the television industry. It’s Viola Davis’ acceptance speech after she won the Emmy Award for Best Actress in a drama series. She became the first African-American women in the ceremony’s 67-year history to win in that category. She used this large platform as an opportunity to address the lack of diversity in the entertainment industry and what essentially stands in the way of women of color to be successful.…

    Both books, “Create Dangerously” by Edwidge Danticat and “The Atlas of Global Inequalities” by Ben Crow and Suresh K. Lodha, are very different books, but also both very big eye openers. Both of these interesting books despite their differences could complement each other to get similar information across in different ways. “Create Dangerously” by Danticat was obviously far more personal. For me its way more interesting and impactful when I hear/read real stories of people. So reading these stories of the Haitian people and the hell that the go through just for sharing their experiences was just so eye opening and made these problems not seem more relatable because I have obviously never gone through these things, but more real and in front…

    Susan McClary believed, that as film and media continue the discourse on gender identities today, early-modern opera was a pioneer in the construction of gender identities to the public sphere. The construction of gender became necessary when presented portrayals of the world had to differentiate between male or female characters, as one sex could play the other. These constructions were shaped by the time and place in which the work was presented. The issue on how to represent women was controversial during Monteverdi’s time as perspectives on the female rhetoric were divided. McClary analyses Monteverdi’s L'Orfeo and believes that men had a more provocative stage presence while women had to have an innocent portrayal to remain attractive…

    Linda Belleville Analysis

    My personal response to the Egalitarian views of Linda Belleville and Craig Keener is varied. When reading and learning from Belleville I would go from understanding and personally align in thought, to feeling her view was somewhat stretching for me especially when other references were used outside of scripture. I was able to follow Keener closer, but this could be based on my up bringing in the evangelical church. It was very helpful to learn from Belleville the difference between egalitarianism and feminism and that they are not the same view. That feminism minimalizes sexual distinction and egalitarians affirm sexual distinction and that they are equal yet complementary.…

    When the video talked about how children were sent away to boarding school because their parents did not know how to handle them or communicate with them, it broke my heart. These children did not have regular communication with their families so they seemed to rely on the other children for love and support. Hearing the interviewees talk about their schooling adventure was pretty cool because they all had similar experiences. However, their experiences were not the best. Many of the people interviewed said that their deafness was treated as a handicap that…

She was always in everyone else’s business and invading their space. When she first entered the scene for the first time, the girls in the ward were happy to see her. Her body language also gave off that she has been there before.…
