A good speech can leave a positive impact on the listener. This is true for many great speeches such as the Gettysburg Address, President Reagan's Challenger Speech, and John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address. All three of these speeches come at a time of despair in America. Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address during the Civil War. Reagan gave his State of the Union Address the same day the U.S. Space Shuttle, the Challenger, exploded. President Kennedy’s inauguration speech came at a time…

“Rock the Casbah” came out in June 11, 1982 by the English punk rock band The Clash. “Rock the Casbah” is the third single on The Clash's fifth album Combat Rock and reached number 8 on the Billboard hot 100 in the U.S. It also reached number 8 on the dance chart. I think that the lyrics, by Joe Strummer, were inspired by a news report of Iranians being flogged for the crime of owning a disco album and create an amusing fantasy where a disco-hating sharif is defied by everyone from the citizens…

At the age of nine years old we moved from…

Policies associated with immigration laws stem back in history, as early as 1790. Beginning with the Naturalization Act of 1790, as the first statute that imposed regulations on citizenship. The Act included criteria, such as two years of residency, good behavior and allegiance to the United States. Notwithstanding, those excluded from citizenship included blacks and children of fathers not born in the U.S. Inevitably, this representation of segregation took part in the restructuring of…

On May 9, 1982, Ronald Regan, the fortieth president of the United States, gave a commencement speech to the graduating class from Eureka College. Eureka College is where Ronald Regan went to college. This is interesting because previous presidents like John F. Kennedy, Barak Obama, or Bill Clinton all went to ivy league colleges like Harvard or Yale. It is very inspiring that Regan was able to accomplish so much without a degree from a prestigious university. This commencement speech very…
