As a curator at the National Palace Museum I would put very detailed descriptions next to all of the artifacts in the Museum. When I visited the museum, I realized that not all artifacts had clear descriptions…

with all that emotion pouring through the speakers just made me want to recreate that same feeling in my own way. It felt like being apart of a special moment to me. My point in telling this story is to show that hip-hop shaped me to write raps and songs to share my story for the world to hear.…

With moving lyrics and a unique style of singing, the song was a worldwide hit, bringing attention to the Ireland-England conflict. Its impact may have possibly aided in the peace that they sought…

Families When you're family supports you, don't you feel like you can do anything? I know I do. In the short story song of the trees by mildred D.
