    I picked this documentary because I am a huge football fan and sports fan in general. I am also really interested in injuries and the health of an individual and, more specifically, I have always been interested in the way the mind works in so many ways that we still don’t understand today. I’m actually majoring in Athletic Training which perfectly explains why I picked this documentary. The other fact is that this documentary points to the three biggest things I am interested in which made this an obvious pick for me.…

    In this video is about Nyalat Biliew coming from a Sudan at a young age , and balancing her life in America with the customs that she has grown up around that come from her family tibial backgrounds that was brought to the United States called the Nure tibe. In the short film that is narrated by Nyalat she is self aware of the differences between the two cultures and has said in the video that she feels that she is losing a part of her culture, because she does not relate to them on a deeper level that people like her mother and the Elder Nour can.I found it interesting that in the film that Rebecca Wal talks about how different american kids are from their own and how they can “do whatever they want” because we are taught we have freedom to do this.

    Imagine that one day - any random day of the week- everything is fine. You seem to have some difficulty in remembering simple things. Where are the car keys? What were you supposed to do that day? The next day, you and your family receive the terrifying news. You have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Slowly, over the course of the next few years, you will begin to forget everything about yourself. It is a terrifying thought, yet it is happening to nearly five million and four thousand people in America today (White, “The Genius of Caring: an interactive documentary”). Now, think about what it would be like to be the caregiver of those people. They are husbands and wives, sons and daughters, or close friends and…

    If the Martian Chronicles had been written in the 1999's instead of fifty years ago, many issues and problems would change. Ray Bradbury wrote his book in 1946. In it he wrote about problems such as censorship, man's cruelty to man, and loneliness. Each issue shows up in one or two of his chronicles. All of his issues affect every one of his characters in many different ways.…

    Based on the actions in The Martian Chronicles, Bradbury’s opinion is that humans are greedy, arrogant, disrespectful, and insecure. In the novel humans were portrayed in a negative way. Bradbury created humans as a society to crumble in the future because of their own insecurities. Humans’ self-righteousness is their biggest flaw as a society and individuals.…

    My opinion on the End Black History Month documentary is that we should end Black History month because black history is a part of American History and it should not be limited to just a month. Black History is a lot of history that African American people and children should know about. It’s so much important history for it to be just narrowed down to the three basic people all the time which are Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, and Harriet Tubman. While these are legends definitely worthy of study they are not the only icons students and people should admire. By our teen years, we’ve heard it all before, and are interested in approaching Black History in a different way. While those studying Black History Month are grilled on the names of African American pioneers, they receive little background on the historical context these heroes lived and prospered in despite deep-seated racism.…
