Parade

Fort Campbell’s Division Parade Field was a sea of blankets and lawn chairs; people adorned in red, white, and blue chirped merrily in the spirit of Independence Day. The alluring aroma of deep-fried carnival treats saturated the thick humid air; a constant reminder of the festival that served as the audience’s backdrop. The dense crowd of a thousand consisted of older veterans proudly wearing their decorated hats, parents attending to their children’s needs, and teenagers chattering around the…

Parade to War Allegory is a piece of work created in 1938 by John Steuart Curry. The dimensions of this work are 47 13/16 x 63 13/16 and the particular medium used was oil on canvas.

His parents both felt strongly that one should have a strong appreciation for art, instilling that belief in their son. Once Curry became of age he studied…

“The Parade,” by Billy Collins, is written in a first person point of view, while using the words “we” and “us” to create a uniting effect. “The Parade” is representative of life, so only using the word “I” would be selfish, and it would not create the “bonding of all humans” effect that Collins is trying to achieve. His point of view allows for him to explain the importance of uniting as a generation, but also stresses the significance of living our own life, as he states in stanza two. The…

Fliers at the Peace Parade In my understanding the Pastor Kent Brandenburg from the Bethel Baptist Church failed to developed a constructive interfaith with the Sikh community in El Sobrante, California. Interfaith allows us to understand other groups faith and views to facilitate a dialogue. Pastor Kent Brandenburg flier was a not a reach out context but a proselytization one. For instance, the flier start by saying "…God is the Eternal Truth. If we were to agree on this, even as in John…

following pages will discuss pride parade performance in the past and today. The history of where pride parades began and the impacts of performance and corporatization in North America. Pride Parades through time have changed dramatically. What once was used as a means of protest and a riot used for the protection and fight for people’s human rights, in North American culture, has turned into a celebration. The people who are present range from “visitors to pride parades line the streets to…

This was my first gay pride parade experience and I must say it was a good experience. This is one of the reasons I appreciate courses like this because it allows students to step out of the comfort zone and be a part of something wonderful. I never thought I will attend gay pride parade especially on Sunday. I took my cousin and my nephew and it was their first time attending as well. I do not like missing Church and I left bad and guilty at the same time. If members of my Church knew I was…

The Tractor Parade consisted of basically everyone who lived in the town dressing their tractors up and going on a town tour. Many of the tractors had hay wagons on the back that could fit up to thirty people. Usually, people would gather in the market square and watch each tractor go by. A lot of times people would throw candy out of the tractors into the crowds. The parade was always…

be given the privilege to perform it. I got to connect with more band members a lot more than I did last year. This band is the best band I have ever been a part of and I hope I can be apart of it these next two years. The best parade this year was the Raisin Day parade in my opinion. We were going strong and keeping the same pace without getting tired. This is what showed that this band was not going to back down from all the amazing bands that we would soon face. I was also proud and very…
