    Langston Hughes, a well known American poet, was born and raised in mild poverty and faced many struggles during his childhood and early adulthood. Due to the circumstances surrounding his life, Hughes developed a strong emotional connection to anyone facing struggles, particularly youth growing up in poor areas of American cities, such as New York City's Harlem area. After realizing these connections, Hughes was able to successfully address the difficulties of life and the struggles of the people, through the piece "Harlem”. The use of a distinct voice, beginning with such a strong title, compels the audience to continue through the poem, where we are exposed to strong use of voice, tone, symbolism, word choice, and poetic structure.…

    The r-word is one of the most repulsive words in the English language; it humiliates people and is used colloquially without second thought. The word “retard” causes nothing but anguish. The r-word was first used in a medical discipline (e.g. “mental retardation”). The pejorative forms of the word “retard” and “retarded,” however, are used in society to deride people with intellectual disabilities. I find this social injustice unacceptable, especially because the r-word is often used to call people without intellectual disabilities “stupid.” When the r-word is used incorrectly, it reinforces the painful stereotypes of people with intellectual disabilities as…

    Advertising is a way of producing commercials for products or services. In a fast paced world that we live in today, all types of information is thrown at us at an uncomfortable rate. On tablets, smartphones, computers, newspapers, radio and TV, we encounter ads for all kinds of products from a vast variety of large corporate companies almost every single day. In places like Manhattan, more specifically Times Square, there are a plethora of advertisements on grand billboards and on beautiful immersive screens that rest beside buildings. Ad’s have drastically increased since the turn of the twenty first century. Companies use clever tactics, such as weasel words and psychological tactics to differentiate them from other companies. Words like better, improved, new, fast and so forth play a deciding factor when buying a product, and it is up to the consumer to analyze the truth behind these words. In the article “With These Words I Can Sell You Anything” by William Luts, he states that “Advertisers use weasel words to appear to be making a claim for a product when in fact they are making no claim at all” (62). Companies want the consumer to feel the need to buy their products, as if it were drastically changing the person's life. Advertising is an effective method used by companies to promote their ideas through their…
