We have police officers killing black people just because their black. The excuses that are being used is that “Oh, I thought he had a gun!” or “He resisted his arrest!” or anything of that nature. That is quite unfair. As of July, we’ve had had 558 black people killed by police. Terrence Crutcher for one has been shot by police. The reason stated that the reason they shot him to death is because he did not follow instructions to put his hands in the air when the advised him to. As we might’ve…

conference in Cleveland, police began responding to an alleged incident of public intoxication, using pepper spray and handcuffs. The protesters then began chanting the refrain from Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp A Butterfly. They were chanting “We gon’ be alright! We gon’ be alright!” (Billet). The well-known online magazine The Rolling Stone touted Lamar’s Alright as the anthem of the Black Lives Matter Movement (Tate). In conclusion, hip-hop and R&B have had very large impacts on the Black Lives…

issues; secondly, another component of film is the focus of character. Characters are known as the “individuals who populate narrative or non-narrative films” (westga.edu/~bjames/componentsoffilm), they are the people we put the focus on at the beginning and end of the film, the ones we all analyze and try to relate to in some sense. Now setting and point of view kind of go hand in hand in terms of film as they both establish the film itself, bringing a foundation to this work. While setting can…

never trust your friends, you’ll never understand women, and the only truth is found through illusion. The complexity of action is a reoccurring theme throughout the story, as we often see Hamlet holding himself next to the brash Norwegian prince Fortinbras, and his quick actions. In Shakespeare’s greatest revenge drama, we see how Hamlet is inspired by Fortinbras, how Fortinbras was a literary tool used to foil prince Hamlet, and how Hamlet’s thoughtfulness came both at an advantage and…

An African American man named Reginald Bell stood and stared from a distance at the pump-action shotgun that was aimed at him from a white man. Reginald Bell was an Algiers resident and was told by the white man that his race was not welcomed (Craven, Julia). This was one of the many menacing situations that numerous innocent African Americans experienced during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. However, stories like these were almost never covered by journalists and therefore the world would…

of the Proposed Plan Using the information we gathered from our surveys, we have come up with some ideas for the employees of Carmike to be better engaged in their work. Our first idea was to retrain the employees every 3 months. By doing this the employees can be refreshed on how to do their jobs properly. The employees will have a better knowledge of the workplace, so that when new employees come they will be able to train those employees even better. We also had the idea to get an employee…

choreographer. Because of this course, I have a better understanding of conflict resolution and influence tactics. In addition to this, I will discuss the material I was originally looking forward to and my opinions on those chapters. The Case of Emily Craven in Organizational Behavior, Revisited When I started my junior year as a marketing major, I was extremely nervous. This…

Death. It is one of the greatest mysteries that humans have ever encountered. There is no way of knowing what it feels like to die or what happens afterwards; no one has lived to tell the tale. As frightening or mysterious as death may seem, it welcomes all with open arms at one point in time or another. No one is immune to death. It is unavoidable. “The Masque of the Red Death” by Edgar Allen Poe demonstrates this concept about death with great precision. This short story is about a selfish…

shall grow more truly simple; more expressive with fewer lines, fewer forms; more articulate with less labor; more plastic; more fluent, although more coherent; more organic.” As we stride into a new millennium, and grapple with architecture’s responsibility to embrace the tools and embody the values of our time and place, we must acknowledge that in all of this, Wright walked before us (“The Frank Lloyd”, 1).” In relation to the preceding quote, it is indisputable that Wright was altering that…

"That it should come to this!" (I. i. 137). This well-known quote from Shakespeare’s Hamlet, expresses Hamlets conundrum, in which Hamlet’s world starts to fall apart. It’s also the beginning seeds for Hamlet’s hatred of King Claudius (his uncle). Hamlet’s deep seeded hatred towards King Claudius derives from Claudius marrying his mother. The hatred also comes from the fact that he was the one who murdered his father. The quote is the start to one of the most important themes of the play;…
