    The beginning of black militancy in the United States is said to have begun with the chants “Black Power” demanded by Stokely Carmichael and Willie Ricks during the 1966 March against Fear. While Carmichael and Ricks may have coined the phrase “black power”, the roots of the movement had been planted long before by Mr. Robert F. Williams. In Timothy Tyson’s book: Radio Free Dixie: Robert F. Williams and the Roots of Black Power, Tyson details the life of a remarkable man who had the audacity not only to challenge racial injustice in America but also to contest the rarely disputed strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Establishment.…

    Consumer products aim to appeal to popular psychology by creating strong associations in the mind of the consumers; these associations create a link between what consumers desire and the product itself. They often have links to current affairs happening across the globe. The “Air-King Midget” Radio, from 1933, was made of cheap plastic, but the Egyptian illustration on the front brings the piece back to ancient times. This blast from the past is juxtaposed by the design of the radio itself, which looks like an imposing skyscraper. It was in the 1930’s that the radio became the dominant form of mass media in most industrialized nations, including America. During this period, the Empire State building was constructed and it would remain the tallest building in the world for the next 35 years. The “Air-King Midget” Radio encompassed the booming skyline of American cities, while also being affordable to the average consumer. The materialism and the luxurious lifestyle, but at a price and made from material that the common consumer can afford. The lines also resemble the radio waves from which sound emanates.…

    Broadcast media has been around for many, many years and the grandfather of them all is the radio. The radio has been around for so long and has become such a prominent fixture in our society that we take it for granted. Every day many of us are exposed to some form of radio without realizing it. From the beginning of its technology, other forms of media have evolved also; television, wireless internet, and cellular phones, which most of us use daily. Something we do not think of is, where did it all start, whose idea was this to begin with, and what will the radio of tomorrow be like or will there even be radio in the future. I guess we will see.…

    The short story "The Enormous Radio" written by John Cheever tells about a family, Jim and Irene Westcotts, who buys a new radio that permits them to eavesdrop on conversations and quarrels of other tenants of their apartment building. At first Westcotts appears like the perfect American family who seems to strike that satisfactory average of income, endeavor and respectability. They like listening to classical music and they went to a great many concerts. But they try not to show it off because these activities were not something members of their community did. Westcotts wanted to conform to their society. Yet they are far from being the perfect family.…
