Picket fence

The assassination of John Franklin Kennedy, the president of the United States of America on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. It came unexpected and shocked american citizens throughout the nation. The person who was accused to be the assassin was Lee Harvey Oswald, but there are many other theories and evidence that suggest he was not the acclaimed assassin. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill JFK because, there is a lack of evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald killed the president, there is…

different. Some families are blended because their parents got a divorce and some kids are being raised just by a single parent. Many children have a grandparent as their guardian or an older sibling taking care of them. Not everyone has the white picket fence with 2.5 children and a perfect life. America is a melting pot full of diversity, this is what makes America so great. We are all different with our talents and abilities but no one is better or higher than the other. Marriage equality is…

Entering a new foreign environment is a struggle one cannot relate to unless they are put in a similar position. Although I have experienced moving to a different American city and switching schools, but leaving your home country to find suffrage in a new territory is very different. New language, new food, new clothes, different social norms; your life in a way restarts. I have always wondered how my parents (both Ghanaian immigrants) were able to adjust to such different environments; it is…

What is the American dream really? The American dream may consist of some freedom, a white picket fence, and possibly having the privilege of an early retirement. When the Americans are at their place of employment many employees believe that money grows on trees, which sounds really great. These theories come across the American workers, because…

Similarly, Bonner and Faludi accuse our country's media of being corrupt after the attack on September 11th. Both writers state in the beginnings of their works the weakness of the media and United States citizens. This weakness is not described as a weakness that contributed to the attack, but instead a weakness of how we interpreted life in the aftermath. Bonner and Faludi both argue people are too quick to believe anything and everything the media shares publicly. “After the attacks,…

This is what many people speculate about the new American Dream: It is acquiring excessive material wealth like famous people do. Owning a small house with a picket fence is no longer the dream. Instead, many people want to own the most expensive cars, a mansion, the most stylish clothes, the last upcoming technology and the list could go on. A good healthy democratic government is that, government that can offer…

English, but also raised the question as to where Quebec stood in Canada. Due to the nature of this event, cause and consequence will be appropriate. In my first stamp of the Conscription Crisis, there is a farmer who is relaxed with a brand new picket fence, with crops and livestock further in the distance. The soldier is depicted as tense and solemn as he stands behind old barbed wire, bullets flying past him. A hospital is seen in the distance with injured soldiers entering and exiting, as…

big chocolate colored shutters, only for show of course. It had a spacious covered porch, a picturesque window seat and large leafy trees that lined the street every five feet or so. More than half the houses in the gated neighborhood had white picket fences and sprawling emerald lawns with landscaping that mirrored Thomas Kinkade’s paintings. Charming? Yes. Practical for Las Vegas? Absolutely…

“black body” is forced to create their own sense of self in a world that they do not recognize as their own. The Black body is a metaphor to describe the loss of identity. The body is no longer a physical body but a commodity. “The dream” of white picket fences and racial equality does not exist for the Blacks. The dream is merely a façade created to hide the woes of the average working class Americans. “Good intentions are a hall pass through history, a sleeping pill that ensures the…

Rocky Horror Show Review Rocky Horror Show most definitely lived up to the sense of style it should have had. There was much sexual humor present throughout the show especially from the actors that sat in the audience. They kept up the sexual humor so the actors on stage could go somewhere with their scene and create a plot. There was much audience interaction because of the prop bags (that was a great way to help the audience be involved), and with the whole play starting with Magenta in the…
