How Does Investigation Lead to Discovery? Most people don’t think of exploring the moon when talking about Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery. Sure, they both are explorations, but one was on Earth, and the other was on the moon. But they are both capable of answering the question: How does investigation lead to discovery? Investigating, or searching, studying, testing, questioning, experimenting, and finding every possible answer is key to finding new things, but how? The Captain’s Dog…

Gladwell has made an interesting argument about how people become successful. In this paper, I will be talking about how Bradley Byrne, US Representative for Alabama became successful using some…

Ethel Provo was born and raised in Ramer, Alabama, a small town outside of Montgomery Alabama. Ethel wasn’t born in a hospital; she was born at home by a midwife.

stood in front of the door as federal authority tried to allow the students to enter. After winning his first term as governor in 1962, Wallace became the foil for the huge protests in which Martin Luther King Jr fought against and destroyed segregation in 1963 and secured voting rights for blacks.

The Giants Stood Upon Many people today are well aware of the amazing feats done by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. From the nonviolence in the Montgomery Bus Boycott where he picked up a following, to the historic March on Washington where he delivered his awe-inspiring “I Have a Dream” Speech (History.com 1). There is no doubt whatsoever, Doctor King was an incredibly influential person in the Civil Rights Movement whose legacy would never be forgotten. However, Isaac Newton once said “If I have…

King was not the initiating figure of the Civil Rights Movement as many people think, it was at the meeting in his church on December 5, 1955 that he was elected into the presidency of the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA) (49-50) and would soon after start to become the public face of the Movement.

muddy fields of Hayneville, Alabama, I stop to look at the sky and wonder what we blacks have been through. The day before we left for the march with Dr. King (Martin Luther King Jr.), I have done a lot of preparations and packed a very small amount of items needed before I left for the march. (I have packed a blanket and purse filled with my special needs) Ma and Pa were worried about my health but I told I’d be just fine. As I walk more into the muddy fields, my legs get very heavy and tired…

is still felt today. Rosa Park’s refusal to give her seat to a white man on a Montgomery city bus started not only a movement to end segregated busing throughout the South, but also future movements against segregation and discrimination throughout the United States.
