    Most of the American history serves a great deal of pride, acknowledgement, and importance to its culture. Spreading democracy and liberty all over the world yet forgetting some part of the history full of abusement, racisms, and evil. The novel, Between The World And Me, written by Ta-Nehisi Coates, who is know for expressing black culture by writing novels, talks about some of this history. In his novel, he confesses all the fears filled in black Americans’ body in a letter that he writes to his fifteen year old son. When I first learned about the history of African Americans, I was shocked and I wanted to know even more about their culture and their backgrounds since, my culture is different from theirs. I was also disguised because American history was so cruel. One of the reasons that I took this class was also to learn more about African American culture. Ta-Nehisi Coates is also African American which helps the novel show his personal feelings and opinions…

    In “the war of the wall” by Toni Cade Bambara, the painter girl keeps being called “rude” even though she didn't do much to have the kids call her that. The story shows the struggles in America while also teaching not to make assumptions about people and their motives, bambaras use of irony, and a theme that makes the message of the story interesting and exciting to say the least. The biggest theme in the story is integration, it is started at the start of the story when the narrator says “big kids have been playing handball on the wall since so called integration when the crazies cross town poured cement into our pool so we couldn't use it.” This quote shows how racism impacted the children, even after integration white people still did not…

    After having a thorough read of the novel ‘Jasper Jones’ by Craig Silvey, I have come to understand the powerful effects of using written codes and conventions in novels. Silvey’s impressive piece of literature was carefully constructed through techniques such as characterization, socio-cultural context, themes and intertexuality. By doing this, Silvey was accredited for convincing the readers, appealing to their emotions and manipulating their beliefs and values to accept or agree with his opinions on the issue covered in the novel.…

    In “The Future is Now,” Joel Achenbach exposes our inability to foresee the next big thing in science and technology. Achenbach refers to the internet as being an entity that was not foreseen. Within a relatively short period of time the internet has forever changed the way in which we live our lives. We buy, shop, learn, and enjoy entertainment differently since the inception of the internet. Achenbach uses the fact that the internet was not predicted to support his stance by explaining the origins of the word “internet” and how quickly the internet grew. As the pursuit of knowledge becomes increasingly stratified; applied science produces a series of inventions, heavily used by the masses, in which very few people fully understand how those…

    The poem Ancestors by Peter Skrzynecki is a excellent example of belonging and expresses his feeling of not belonging in his family. The poem presents a series of rhetorical questions which reflects on a dream Skrzynecki has had or is having and what he believes the meaning is. We could deduce from this poem and its use of present tense that the dream is a recurring dream about these vague images of Ancestors and how Skrzynecki is desperately trying to understand their relevance to him. In this dream, the ancestors are unfamiliar to Skrzynecki but give off a very powerful presence to him. They appear to have a message for him, but he can’t hear what it is, they are always pointing at him but never speak so there meaning becomes very mysterious. The use of rhetorical questions gives the poem a dramatic feel and makes the reader feel the same frustration that Skrzynecki feels.…

    Joyland Movie Vs Book

    A good action movie pumps you up, makes you sweat, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I would say everyone likes at least one action/thriller movie because it makes you feel different emotions throughout the movie. Some people including myself feel like a book can’t give you the quick immediate feelings that a movie gives you. When I read Joyland I was shown proof that a book can give you the same action pact feelings that a movie gives you. If you are someone that likes to be entranced by a good plot and likes a twist, then Joyland may be a book for you. Joyland is a novel written by Stephen King and was originally published in 2013.…

    When I first read this story in elementary school, I never saw the true meaning behind the words written by Henryk Sienkiewicz. This novel didn’t really mean too much to me then, mostly because I never understand the deep importance of the point hidden behind this story. Now, after many years I finally realized what Sienkiewicz was trying to tell us in his novel. And I was so surprised how such a short story, which could be read in several minutes, can be so powerful. There are so many meanings and symbols hidden behind author’s words and behind his novel. I really envy Sienkiewicz for his talent. I personally believe that there is no other writer who could take a long story and then condense it into a short novel with so many messages hidden behind his words. His images of nature are simply unbelievable. It made me feel like I was right there on the lighthouse with the main character of the story.…
