Black Kids

The Karate Kid is a drama produced by Columbia Pictures in 1984. The movie begins with Daniel Larusso and his mother moving from New Jersey to Southern California.

Yet it all gets crushed when Daniel catches the interest of a group of bullies that are skilled at karate, and are led by a character named Johnny. Daniel is…

was seen everywhere , where children’s future did not exist , only for a few which were considered ‘the rich kids”. The rich kids tend to be successful because of their wealth , they had the money to pay for school and the security to stay safe. I was in the lower class group where school wasn’t taken seriously and it wasn’t important to children and some parents. It wasn’t rare to see kids out of school because of lack of money and some had to work to help their family out. Mostly would join…

lesser known cover artist, Lissie, performed a ground-breaking interpretation of an original single by a rap super star known as Kid Cudi. Although, Kid Cudi and Lissie have unique musical styles that ponder the lines of production size, instrumentals, quality and tone in their rendition of “Pursuit of Happiness”, it is clear Lissie most effectively recorded the piece. Kid Cudi’s album Man on the Moon, produced many singles,…

1. Design and Composition - Denote in your Design Analysis the Design Principles seen in the work (unity, contrast, balance, movement, direction, emphasis, rhythm, repetition, center of interest, etc. Thank you for sharing your wonderful earthwork to the class Ms. Thi. The stones that you choose are very distinct, I like how they differ in shapes and yet they connect to each other. The flat stone in the middle is just the right size and shape to hold the two small stones on top. I also admire…

“Rich people plan for three generations Poor people plan for Saturday night”(Leigh Taylor). The “Greasers” or also known as poor kids have more struggles than the “Socs” which are the rich kids.

The “Greasers” struggle because they are exposed to things they have never seen and the “Socs” have an lot to expect from. Because of the sacrifices they made and the violence they…

I thought that pretty much everyone knew who Billy the Kid was, but as I have told people what I was doing my essay on, I have gotten many confused looks. This was surprising to me. I thought that everyone at least would recognize the name, but boy was I wrong. Since no one knows who this western outlaw legend is, I guess I will just start off with the basic boring information. Billy the Kid was said to be a very handsome man. He had a slim physique, sandy blond hair, and blue eyes. He wore a…

Kid Cudi, the Man on the Moon, or even Mr. Rager are a few of the nicknames artist Scott Mescudi is known by. His influence and talent has been appreciated by many since he first emerged as a rapper from Cleveland in 2008. Since then, he's produced countless classics for our generation and has experimented with different sounds for our hearing pleasure. Last week I got the chance to see him perform for the second time at Revention Music Center and he had me leaving the venue an even bigger fan…

Between Gene Marks’ “If I Were a Poor Black Kid” and Danielle N. Lee’s “If I Were a Wealthy White Suburbanite,” both authors argue contradicting opinions on the topic of poverty. For instance, Marks proclaims “I’d become expert at Google Scholar. I’d visit study sites like SparkNotes and CliffsNotes to help me understand books. I’d watch relevant teachings on Academic Earth, TED and the Khan Academy” (259). To clarify, Marks is explaining how poor black kids could use online resources to help…

society, and if he or she should receive that best in life. If one is Black, Latino, Asian, or Hispanic, he or she has to be twice as good in order to be accepted by those on top of the food chain. This is also true with one’s class. If one is poor working class or middle working class, he or she has to strive and fight his or her way to the top in any possible way he or she knows how.
