Blacksmith

Zeus and Hera who were sister and brother, Hephaestus is married to Aphrodite by Zeus to prevent a war of the gods fighting for her hand.

Hephaestus was the Greek god of blacksmiths, sculptors, metallurgy, fire and volcanoes therefore; he is represented with a hammer, an anvil and a pair of tongs. He made all kinds of weapons and armor for the gods. He created cauldrons that wanted no fire to…

Interesting given his background, W.E.B Du Bois makes an argument here that seems to favor some form of inequality.

blue-eyed, and with a Grecian profile. Your eyes dwell on a Vulcan- a real blacksmith, brown, broad-shouldered; and blind and lame into the bargain.’” (422 Brontë) Mr. Rochester’s description of St. John as a “graceful Apollo” solidifies his stance regarding his Greek descriptions. His comparison to Apollo further distances himself from Mr. Rochester, as the blemish-free God of Music is nothing like the work-hardened blacksmith that is Vulcan. Vulcan itself is a Roman exclusive name, and the…

“He is not as intellectual a Moses Cooper, but he is kinder.” When Moses dies, he becomes a surrogate father to Adam, protecting him and talking about the war. Cousin Simmons is the village blacksmith, a relative of the Coopers and the father of Ruth. “…gun is a commoner, an equalizer, believe me.” A few shreds of cloud lay across the moon, but plainly, enough we could see the treetops, the common, Cousin Simmons’ house, the Peabody house, and Buckman’s Tavern, where the road to Menotomy…

I watched the documentary episode of Chelsea Does Racism on Netflix. I thought not only was this documentary interesting, funny and enlightening, it spoke truth. Chelsea found a way to make fun of people of different cultures and, more times than not, they were so funny they didn’t even know the joke was offensive. She also brought to light questions of racism that most people do not want to talk about. This was all her way of trying to understand the importance of understanding racism and…
