According to Plato, the chained people represent the uneducated and uninformed men in the society (Warmington 119). Behind them and directly in front of the fire, people walk on a raised platform, thus projecting the shadows and echoes on the blank wall. These are the leaders in the today society and those other people in positions of influence who want the masses to believe in their point of view. The shadows projected include religion and political rule in the society. The philosopher escapes from the cave and is able to see the reality of the universe (Adeloitte 32). One could equate Bernard Madoff's Ponzi scheme with this as he projected unrealistic profits to investors…

The emotions that arise from the video are angst, dread, compassion and rebellion. The emotions angst and dread were aroused by the graphics and sound effect of the video in example throughout the video the sound effects where very eerie and fitting to the subtopic discussed at the moment. The whole video is illustrated with graphics that were hand drawn; they were colored in mostly in different shades of black and white to portray a grim and clandestine environment in exception to red which was used to portray blood. An example that the illustrations were used to portray dread and compassion are a drawing the illustrator did of a small child working at a sweat shop and then a drawing of another child scavenging through waste. The emotions compassion and rebellion where influenced by the videos graphics but they were mainly affected by the words chosen to describe offshoring. The choice of vocabulary for the video was calamitous, it made corporations be viewed as destructive entities that the audience needs to stand up against. It chose phrases such as “the vast lawless oceans” (morph,2013) and “the powerful hide options to avoid responsibilities” (morph,2013) to express the corruption corporations seek to better benefit themselves. The…
This is a victory track to Peter. The lyrics deconstruct the idea of the typical gangster or hustler and redefines it. The song then applies these negative stereotypes of a gangster to those in power of America. It is quite literally a satire that illustrates how those in power of this capitalist work force are the real destructive gangsters. It coalesces with the montage perfectly in that it establishes a new way of being a “gangster” that does not involve all of the negative attributes; it is an alteration of the work environment and the institution of work altogether, at least in the context of the film. Another iconic scene uses Ice Cube’s “Down For Whatever” in which the three main characters exchange the virus-filled computer disc that will finally enact their plan to drain money from their company’s account. Much like the song, this scene, while comical implies that the three characters have established a bond in making a revolutionary move against the system. In this action, they have more or less sealed that they too are “down for whatever” as it regards actualizing some…

The video shows armed struggles between Black men and police in riot gear. The final shot of the music video calls to mind images of the Black Panther Party staring down police decades before, with Sister Souljah shown staring unintimidated at the police who have their guns pointed at her. It also echoes Public Enemy’s logo of a person’s silhouette in the scope of a rifle with a defiant posture. (Decker…
The songwriter, Neru, tries to express several things by using symbolism, imagery, conflict, and metaphor in his song, "Jailbreak." His use of imagery helps listeners envision how horrible the town is and may help them empathize with the narrator who wants to escape. He shows lots of symbolism like the plane and metaphors like how the town is compared to a cage to further emphasize the narrator's desire to escape and obtain freedom. The conflict, the narrator versus the police, may also have a different meaning besides its literal one. Neru may have included this conflict to tell listeners that it’s alright to run away from being oppressed by society. In the music video, the narrator manages to take flight but the plane explodes, leaving his…

"Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against The Machine is a social commentary on the state of the federal government. The song criticizes the government's excessive use of force in dealing with foreign and domestic issues. Unlike the pro-peace songs of the 60's and 70's, "Bulls on Parade" takes a more confrontational and controversial approach, directly accusing the government of unnecessarily aggressive actions and chicken hawk policies, even going so far as to accuse them of criminality.…

entral to the understanding of the theme of this short story is the point of view selected by the author. This masterful dystopian short story is used a lot in English teaching to give an excellent example of 1st person narration, where a character is telling you the story directly, and you can only see the action through their eyes, contrasted with an omniscient narrator who is god-like and all-seeing and can tell the reader what every character is thinking and feeling. This form of limited narration is used to great effect by the author as we literally go on the journey with John, seeing and feeling what he sees and feels, and we gradually piece together like a jigsaw puzzle what is going on, where we are and what has happened.…

The article of Teaching Real Analysis in the Land of Make Believe is a very nice article. It had made learning Calculus simple because it is stated in a child friendly way. Instead of using long and difficult equations and definitions, it is stated through a form of a tale. The author used the different symbols in calculus as its characters. This made the students more interested in the field of calculus. They can easily remember the equations during examinations because of the excellent story that their professor had made. It can be easily remembered rather than memorizing and understanding all the equations in calculus. Because for students, reading tales and stories is more fun than memorizing all the equations in calculus. In reading tales, the students can make imaginations out of the story they have read. While in studying equations and definitions, you will have much more time in understanding and memorizing it. So the idea of their professor was a great one. It had made the students passed the examinations on calculus. During examinations on calculus, they can easily answer the problems. They can easily remember the equations by just recalling the story of King Epsilon: A tale of convergence on the Real Line. This story is really a great help on students that is having a difficult time in studying calculus. Thanks to Julie Barnes for making the tale a wonderful and informative…
