Ain T No Rest For The Wicked Analysis
Ain't No Rest For The Wicked - Cage The Elephant. Ain't No Rest For The Wicked is a good song choice for this book for may reasons. The song parallels the struggle people in the reservation go through to get money. I think the song message about how poverty affects people gives a nod to poverty and lack of resources in the Spokane Reservation and how Junior sees that affects people’s mindset. Also, the light situational humor of the song matches up with the humor found in Sherman’s book
Rose Golden- Kid Cudi. Rose golden by Kid Cudi is great song for our main character, Junior. Rose Golden focuses on how systems failed him and he had to find the strength in himself to continue to push for a better life. This

    Something Wicked This Way Comes Literary Analysis

    Section 7 Literary Element In the novel “Something Wicked This Way Comes” by Ray Bradbury, Will is associated with the symbols the color white and the number three. The symbol of the color white is shown through “hair as blonde-white milk thistle” (Bradbury, 6), “and he was white and much afraid” (99), and “his soul fall over cold and white-jelly”(167).Will’s hair is described in this way because the color white represents purity and Will is the only pure person between him and Jim.

    All I Want Catcher In The Rye Analysis

    The song “All I Want” by Kodaline refers to Holden’s feelings toward Phoebe near the end of the book. For example, when Holden is delusional, he thinks he is going to die of pneumonia and says, “...so finally what I figured I’d do, I figured I’d better sneak home and see her, in case I died and all” (Salinger 156). Holden’s one wish before he dies (or so he thinks) was to go see his kid sister Phoebe. Holden has a very close relationship with his sister, and they are both very fond of the other. This mindset is displayed by the members of Kodaline when they sing “‘cause if I could see your face once more/ I could die a happy man I’m sure” (Kodaline). While “All I Want” is admittedly about a romantic relationship and not one of a sibling nature,…

    Forgotten Genius Analysis

    I often say that although we, African Americans, have come a long way in America’s society, it sometimes feels like our race has not progressed but set ourselves back. Percy Julian’s story is one of many stories that depicted the struggle that blacks had to go through in his time to truly succeed in a world that viewed him as inferior. Before viewing the documentary, Forgotten Genius, I had never heard of Percy Lavon Julian. However, I feel grateful to have witnessed his inspiring story. He has impacted my life by being a part in paving the way for black excellence, his contributions to science, and by serving as an example of how to persevere.…
