As the national anthem, the Star-Spangled Banner is more than familiar to Americans. Most of the time, we feel a sense of patriotism when the tune rises. Usually, our society confirms that the lyrics of the national anthem promote a sense of praise for our nation. This makes people rarely examine what other messages our national anthem wants to pass to us. However, Jimi Hendrix, the renowned rock guitarist from the late 1960s, interpreted our national anthem in a very different perspective. He…

A life in New York City is a vastly personal experience that is famous for being unlike a life in any other metropolis. “City Limits” by Colson Whitehead explores the idea that everyone who goes to and lives in New York has their own, unique version of the city. From the moment an individual steps foot in the city, she is “building [her] private New York,” (Whitehead 1). My personal New York —the food stands, pharmacies, and avenues I would come to call home—formed when I moved to Manhattan to…

feet to add the pretext of movement, to the hustle and bustle of trying to move along in a group in a strange new place (assuming I was amongst mostly tourists), nothing ever changes when it comes to human behaviour regardless of the geographical location. That is my very first observation during my very first vacation to somewhere I did not grow up in. It’s overwhelming how everything is so new yet so familiar.

Native Americans who were living in America would have to move repeatedly to make way for those who were going to make the west their home. The Indian Removal Act forced Native Americans to move because their land in the west was valuable to the United States. Over 15,000 Native Americans were forced to move further west. Over 4,000 died on this journey. Again they had to move because of the slaughtering of the buffalo. The buffalo was important to the Native Americans not only for food but for…

Carol Berkin is a professor of History at Baruch College, and she teaches early American and women’s history. A BRILLIANT SOLUTION: Inventing the American Constitution is a book that involves the independence of United States of America. The years after the Rebellion were the greatest years and the most terrible periods.

Street Bombing was the most bad fear in the United States until the Oklahoma City assault in 1995 and the 9/11 assaults on the World Trade Center. The bomb's objective was to be the House of Morgan, which was a block over the road from where the explosive had been left out.

It was the effect of the War on the United States which made political, financial and…
