Her short, albeit rich, poetry is riddled with accounts of inner turmoil and a wide-range of dark subjects, such as depression and death. Historically, Dickinson comes across as a morbid recluse, clad in white and obsessed with mortality (“Emily Dickinson” 481). Though it was not unusual, for someone of her time, to be so conscious of death. In fact, in the 1850s, most of life was spent in mournful preparation of…

When all the officers involved in the savage beating of Rodney King at a traffic stop a year before were acquitted of all charges, the black community exploded. For six days, Los Angeles, California became a war zone like no other.
