Freedom Rides During the civil rights movement, African Americans fought legal segregation through violence and nonviolence because they no longer wanted to live in an unequal world filled with segregation. Jim Crow laws took away from the freedom that African Americans had sought for, “separate but equal” formed discrimination. Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) organized freedom rides in 1961 that took the country by storm. Freedom riders fought legal racial segregations through nonviolence…

One of the more challenging aspects of being a manager is effectively reviewing the employees that report to you. If this is done incorrectly, it can hurt not only the performance of the employee, but the entire team. By nature, a majority of individuals are sensitive towards being criticized, even if it’s presented as constructive. There are many tools a manager can use when conducing employee appraisal’s which help them effectively have the “tough talk” when the time is necessary. In my…

From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life: that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise; that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily life. That is a lesson that I continue to pass along to our son, and we need to pass those lessons on to the many generation to follow. I travelled the world while working hard in the incredible arena of fashion. After living…

We live in a society where times have changed and so have the traditions of many. In this 21st century we have more people open to accepting the beliefs of others, but we still see in some cases how loyalty can fog logical reasoning. Although foggy logical reasoning could be negative their can also be a positive effect in loyal peoples actions. Looking at religion as a whole, we see certain groups of people expressing their faith by committing acts of terrorism, and subordination. In other…

Freedom of speech is a right that is granted to all American citizens, but even though it is a right in the first amendment many people take it for granted and some take it too far. The Phelps family are of those who took their right of freedom of speech and used it in a negative way. The Phelps family are the founders of the Westboro Baptist church, yet their practice of religion has nothing in relation to common Baptist churches. The Phelps family practice a rather negative form of protesting…

Fred and Rosemary West “Though serial killers only make up for one percent of murders, nearly a dozen account for one hundred murders annually” (“Serial Killers”). It is often asked what possesses someone to rape, torture , and murder other people.”To answer this question, studies have shown due to these sexual desires and the need to fulfill their arousing fantasies it often drives these individuals to murder those who are complete strangers” “Serial Killers:Nature vs Nurture”. “Rosemary and…

Today is one of the best days in my entire life. The radio station 107.1 gave out special phone calls to celebrities if they answered correctly their question. Only one lucky winner would be able to spend the entire evening with a special celebrity, so I called. Turned out my phone call was accepted; the question I got turned out to be “What radio station are we on?” of course my answer was right which made me the lucky winner. The station allowed five minutes to think of a celebrity. Donald…

It is safe to say I have read a few books on eschatology/prophecy (study of the last things). Many describe The Antichrist as a mastermind without differentiating between a mastery that stems from wisdom and understanding, and a “cunning” that proceeds from craftiness and wickedness. They are not the same. The latter is a mastery of foolishness. The Antichrist is anti-Christ. Although in appearances, he may try to imitate him, in reality, he is everything Christ is “not”. Where does wisdom come…

Today is known as the golden age of visual media, which has increased the accessibility of advertisements, and subsequently created a greater influence on society. Televised advertisements usually appear as commercials. Commercials are the quickest way to influence and effectively install a perceived necessity through an emotional appeal. A quintessential example of commercials that convey emotions is political commercials. Since the dawn of television, politicians have taken advantage of visual…

“Our Children are Watching…” The upcoming presidential election is an election unlike any other. The first candidate without any military or governmental experience, Donald J. Trump, is the Republican nominee. While the Democratic nominee is the first woman ever nominated— Hillary R. Clinton. Despite the lack of ads in this election compared to previous years, the rhetorical strategies still focus on discrediting the other opponent. Hillary Clinton’s advertisements are no exception. Hillary…
