The selection of Strange Fruit is an important sign towards the goal of the song as a whole. The song references to “black bodies swinging in the summer breeze,” offering a chilling beginning to an emotionally packed song. West’s vocals layer over Simone’s with a slightly distressed tone that transitions the reader…

His feet hurt. Questions rushed through his head. How long have we been walking? Where are we even going? The soft pounding of boots somewhere to his front have nearly driven him past typical measures of insanity. He was tired, so he closed his eyes and focused on the rhythmic pit-pat in an attempt to gain at least a measurable amount of rest. To a certain extent, his plan worked--he felt really refreshed when he landed face-first on the damp, stony floor of the cave. The pounding didn’t stop,…

Donald Trump took office on Jan 20, 2017 in Washington D.C.. He won the presidential race against Hillary Clinton. Trump got 304 electoral votes compared to Clinton's 227. Many look at these numbers and think how does a nonpolitical businessman, beat a lifelong politician in a presidential race.

Ha Noi is my native town: I have been living here since I was born 16 years ago. If I had to choose the most beautiful time in Hanoi, I would say autumn without hesitance. ‘Describe fall in Hanoi’ is the essay title that I have written more than 10 times since I started going to Primary School; however, each time I wrote the essay, my emotions are different. Autumn is everywhere, but the Autumn in Hanoi still distinct and beautiful. Blue sky, sunlight spread lightly on the streets, on the trees…

his father makes one think he was. “The hand that held my wrist” (9) references abuse because it seems too aggressive to be playful. On the other hand, without clarification of the age of the speaker, the drunken father could have been playfully swinging the child by the wrists. The author uses words like “beat” which give the feeling of abuse. “You beat time on my head” (13) could literally mean beating the child, or could mean that the father rests his hand on the child’s head as they…

to be the strong hero, and females are supposed to be weak and the damsel in distress. However, in Sleepy Hollow, the main character Ichabod Crane is described as a masculine man that also has a feminine side to him. For example, Ichabod is seen swinging an ax at a tree to mimic the headless horseman’s distraught murders, which shows his masculine side, and shows how men are envisioned to be strong, heroic, and courageous (Bernardo). However, Ichabod’s feminine side comes out when he is brought…

I remember my legs swinging back and forth over the side of the hospital bed and the smell of rubbing alcohol. I had just been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, but I still thought there might be a chance I could go to a New Year’s Eve party that night. My parents didn’t know how to balance their feelings of horror with being strong for me, so neither said much. We watched old VCR tape movies in silence as doctors ushered in and out, checking on me. My diagnosis wasn’t completely unfathomable,…

help these kids? They have emotional, social, mental, and physical disabilities – I don’t even have a sibling!” “See you at five!” said my mom as she pulled out of the driveway of the entrance to the farm. I walked past the gates which were swinging mightily in the wind, and entered the farm. It appeared rather desolate upon first impression, but I was early. And anxious. And wondering how on earth I could help little kids with all these issues! Soon I walked into the nearest building,…
