It’s disappointing to admit that racism continues to exist everyday all over the world. Racism stems countless conflicts and creates resentment towards others. Brent Staples writes about his experience of racism and stereotyping in his essay, “Just Walk on By: Black Men and Public Space.” Late at night, Brent took a stroll around his neighbourhood. Just ahead of him, there was a woman who was white skinned. The woman took a glance back at Brent and noticed he was a tall black male. She began…

The Help, released in 2011 and directed by Tate Taylor is a film which follows the story of a southern author Skeeter as she writes a book detailing the life of African American women, as they work as maids.

and discriminative. “I want to yell so loud that baby girl can hear me that dirty ain’t a colour, disease ain’t the Negro side of town. I want to stop that moment from coming – and it came in every white child’s life – when they start to think that coloured folks are not as good as whites.” This quote shows that racism is something that is taught not something that comes naturally. It also shows that they are taught that the African-American people are inferior to white people. Davis shows how…

The eyes can lie, they may miss things that are truly there or make things appear from nothing. Despite these mistakes we trust our vision completely, depending on it to determine the truth. Race, an important ‘truth’ in the 1920’s is often determined by sight, and can be quite fickle. People look for numerous traits that a person has to determine their race; traits that can easily be hidden, or have no truth to them at all, like ones finger nails, palms, ears, teeth or obviously skin colour…

during the winters, they look for light-coloured rocks or leaves in a sunny area and bask. It is essential for these butterflies to rely on the heat absorbed from the sun, which is why they stretch out their wings in the sunlight. They bask with their wings fully spread out to efficiently soak up the sun’s heat. This allows them to raise their internal temperature higher than the temperature around them. This explains why most butterflies have dark coloured bodies as they are exposed to…

“dip” the finished microscope slides into different concentrations of alcohol, different colourings, water and a concentration called xylol. This process provides a good differentiation between the nucleus which will be blue coloured and the cell plasma which will be red coloured. The whole process including the cutting, fastening and colouring takes about 5 days. What is really interesting is that a finished slide can be held for about 30 years without losing its…

They find people who are easy-going, gentle and kind and who avoid conflict. Throughout the films double indemnity directed by Billy Wilder, nightcrawler directed by dan Gilroy, LA confidential directed by Curtis Hanson and training day directed by Antoine Fuqua, we find that these films have a strong theme of manipulation occurring. This…

During the present day scenes cool and warm colour light were used to create a sense of mood. For example, the use of amber light is shown in the hypnotist store. In this scene, while the candles were being lit they were giving off warm coloured amber light. This created a sense of rising action and grabbed the audiences attention. In addition, blue light was also used during many of the scenes. For example, this could be seen through the windows and during the lightning effects. The lightning…
