How is it fair that the group’s graffiti was being admired by the public in a completely different city? Whilst they were locked up in a cold, gloomy cell? In Britain, whilst Italian tourists fly over to the UK with their flashy cameras to get a street art tour in exchange of £20, the artists who took the time to plan out their next graffiti work & pay for all the resources will be arrested. If you didn’t think an act of vandalism has a serious punishment for a…

describe what they are seeing. What people see is graffiti and street art, and while most of our society would label it as vandalism and destructive. Being a graffiti artist myself, I believe that graffiti and street art as a whole gets an undeservingly bad reputation. This is because throughout our history there has been a general misunderstanding of graffiti as a whole.

Jane Addams Brought Change to America Without a Corporation Behind Her. In today’s modern society, where money controls most of the things one does, it’s hard to imagine a way to change a large group of people’s life without having a substantial amount of money to start off with.

Due to this struggling economy, a normal person with a stable job and a monthly income could be at risk of ending up homeless. The word homeless is usually used to define those people who have lost everything, including their property, and have no monetary income to sustain themselves or family. A person could be homeless for different reasons. One of the most common reasons to end up homeless is because…

Congress resolved a program which was established on the following beliefs that children who were reported as homeless had no ability to support themselves, the only legitimate method of improving their situation was to remove them from the streets, the inherence in a temporary shelter would help them to recognize the wrongfulness of their actions, and law enforcement should be involved if there was no other solution to approach a juvenile: “We have developed very few programs to help our young…

In my English Composition class, I was told that we were to write an ‘exploratory essay’. At first thought, I strongly believed that my professor was trying to say ‘expository’, but he meant what he said. My first time hearing of such a form of writing, I accepted the challenge. After seeing the topics: abortion, capital punishment and legalization of marijuana on the ‘MAY NOT USE’ list, I thought long and hard on a topic of interest. Then Eureka!
