George C. Wolfe

George C. Wolfe’s, The Colored Museum, uses the play dynamic in order to create, celebrate, and critique the African American past and future. The African American legacy is carefully dissected in an almost carefree attitude about the impacts it had on the people. The Colored Museum explores the ideas of African American. George C. Wolfe uses clever wit to say the unthinkable about a serious topic, which leaves the audience in an uncomfortable ruin. The audience is left to navigate though each Act with an apprehensive attitude about what.t it might hold. Therefore, the book leaves the audience questioning stereotypes present. Simple comedy might be seen as you read through the pages of the text. However, the reproduction of racial stereotypes…

The Me Decade was the decade of the 1970s which was thought of as or characterized by narcissism, self-indulgence, and a lack of social concern in many, especially in young people.

The intended audience of this article is, in my opinion, the ones who lived in this generation or those who are trying to learn about it. This paper was written to inform the…

It has been almost one month since that incident with Michael and his wife. It took about three weeks for me to even fill comfortable sleeping in my own home. I became so jumpy and paranoid getting in and out my car until I just had to tell myself, enough is enough. I was no longer going to let some women make me afraid to live in my own home. It’s not like Michael had a key or anything. I stop by the health food store today and picked up some miso paste, portabella mushrooms, spring onions,…

Throughout American art, nature has played an important role in depicting a specific time and place in American history or serving as beautiful backdrops to showcase wealth and stature.

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test written by Tom Wolfe shows the effects LSD or Acid had on the development, structure, and functioning of American society in the 1960’s. Wolfe does this in a very interesting way. He portrays the story through a journalistic research, yet fictional style of writing. He also goes between plot, poetry, flashbacks, and even changes in point of view throughout the book. This is seen as a major strength in the portrayal of the story. The three major sociological…

There are different types of programming such as object-oriented programming (OOP), event-driving programming (EDP), and procedural program, (PP). Some people may agree that there are advantages of using OOP instead of only using PP. A class may have one attribute and one method, in which the class represents an event, the attributes the class stores and the purpose of the method. The class, attributes, and methods share a relationship. Visual Logic is used to learn about programming but lacks…
