The “N-word” is defined as “a contemptuous term used to refer to a member of any dark-skinned people.” The word first started appearing in the 1800’s used as an offensive term to slaves. But over recent decades the word has evolved from being a racial slur to being used when talking to friends, or acquaintances.

Today’s visit to the museum was quite exciting! Having the opportunity to see John Simpsons vision for the museum in its current state, and knowing we could influence the design is a golden opportunity from my perspective. What this signaled for me was the dialogue I had in Amsterdam talking about the flow and the influence of language and historical content in exhibits. I knew when I first saw the Seuss advertisement, I had my eye on a few of them. However, as a dyslexic person writing, and…

Kanye West is an artist whose works can never be replicated. If you start with his first studio album, The College Dropout, West brings an entire new style of rap to the genre of hip hop. This album focused on topics such as consumerism, religion, and family instead of ordinary rap subjects like drugs or crimes. In his song “All Falls Down,” West scrutinizes the problems with college using lyrics like this: “She has no idea what she doin' in college/That major that she majored in don't make no…

Kanye West is definitely a role model for me. Sure West might seem like an egotistical prick to the general population, but he is much more than that. Kanye West is a creative genius, and has a work ethic unparalleled in the genre he makes music for. He has won 21 grammys and that should somewhat display the work ethic and talent that he has. His lyrics are not the reason he has reached the top level of Hip-Hop. He started off as a producer for Def Jam entertainment, and production would…

In the 1970’s, in the suburbs of New York, people began experimenting with a new form of music. At block parties, DJ’s would loop the catchiest parts of the latest disco and funk songs, and MC’s began talking over the music, matching their words to the beat. Popular hits like “Rapper’s Delight” using this style of music soon hit the top charts, and before long, that unique style, rap, had hit the mainstream. Born in America’s tumulous cities, rap was, and always has been, a form of escape from…

Every worker knows the woes of all the varieties of customers that pass through their job. These customers’ that pass through restaurants and fast food places can be classified into five groups; these groups have been named the “Understanding”, the “Perfectionist”, the “Can I Speak to your manager”, the “Grandma/Grandpa”, and the “Trash”.
