Vivian Apple At The End of The World by Katie Coyle is about the end of the world. They say it’s going to end fast. And that the only survivors will be the ones who truly believe in the Church of America. Katie writes, “What harper doesn't understand is that I like my parents...I know if I leave, I’ll miss them.” (4) meaning that Vivian, the main character who lost her parents in the story, views her parents as friends and she obviously doesn't want to loose them, and can’t wait to see them again. This relates to the song called “See You Again” by Wiz Khalifa ft. Charlie Puth, at the start of the song it says, “Its been a long day, without you my friend”, relating to Vivan and how she feels towards her parents absence. Her emotions are depicted

    In 2010, Laura Hillenbrand released a brilliant tribute to a resilient national hero, Louis “Louie” Zamperini, whose story was not widely known at the time. Fast forward four years and this tribute, Unbroken, has been made into a major motion picture and the remarkable story of the Olympian-turned-soldier has reached the masses. In the book Unbroken, which I read shortly after it was released, Hillenbrand chronicles Zamperini’s epic and, at times, terrifying odyssey. Raised in California, he was the son of Italian immigrants.…

    [1] Mohawk writer Beth Brant is on a mission, a mission to redeem the reputations of Powhatan princess Pocahontas and Cherokee Beloved Woman Nancy Ward. Touted as "good friends" of the whiteman in white legend because of actions complicit with white welfare, these two famous Native American women are simultaneously scorned as "traitors" to their race. In "Grandmothers of a New World" (1988, 1994), Brant joins with such other redeemers as Hanay Geiogamah and Monique Mojica in combating white "history" about and white "adoption" of such influential Native American women. For mixed-race lesbian Brant -- whose missionary writing career literally began at the late age of forty with a dramatic highway meeting with and call by Eagle -- Pocahontas…

    Disruption of attachment is where an attachment has been formed between an infant and their primary care giver, but some kind of physical or emotional separation has occurred to disrupt its development during the sensitive period. Research investigating the effects of disruption to attachment has showed psychologists that infants forming attachments with a primary caregiver is essential for healthy social, physical and cognitive development. Such disruption could occur as a result of the infant being separated from their primary caregiver, mental illness in the family, stress, hospitalisation, adoption, the arrival of another sibling, divorce work, day-care and death. In many cases, disruption of attachment is unavoidable as infants must spend time in hospital, in day-care or with a babysitter.…

    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.

    The instinctive need for humanity to belong is through acceptance of one through relationships and their social status in society. When an individual seeks acceptance in the wider world in order to belong, it is up to them as to whether or not they are accepting of others. This idea is challenged as society is the boundary preventing an individual from trying to belong. This notion is expressed throughout the play Rainbows End by Jane Harrison and the film The Sapphires directed by Wayne Blair. Whereby both composers use various techniques to explore the belief that one seeks to belong through relationships and culture. An individual may feel that to truly belong they must discard all differing thoughts. In a way finding a way to be accepted is the focal point of belonging. This idea is demonstrated in the play Rainbows End, in the “Waters rising” scene whereby the audience is under the impression that an individual seeks to belong through acceptance within a relationship. Further In the scene, we see Errol asking Dolly to move into the city with him, through the exchange of dialogue between Errol and Dolly. Errol says “I want you to come away with me” with dolly responding “Away?” and Errol “Yes to the city”. Through the use of a demanding tone in Errol’s voice “I want you” indicates Errol is able to offer a better life for dolly. Symbolising the idea that acceptance in a relationship can make one feel as though they belong, to the point where they can live together as one. As a result, the viewers can understand that both Errol and Dolly are accepting of each other and the different worlds they come from. In a similar way, Wayne Blair explores the idea that a sense of belonging can emerge where there is a perception of acceptance without limitations. This is illustrated in the film The Sapphires whereby Dave is accepted into Gail’s family and asks her parents for her hand in marriage, the humorous…
