The Denzel Washington Experience Everyone has a favorite actor/actress that they like for whatever reason. For as long as I can remember my favorite actor has been Denzel Washington.

In many of Denzel Washington’s movies he portrays an honest everyman bravely confronting social injustice. Remember the Titans

Washington Irving is a man who is questioned for being misogynistic or not. I believe Washington Irving wasn’t to be blamed for how the main characters are treated in his stories.

The March on Washington was when people peacefully protested about black rights in the United States. In 1963 African-Americans in

The Washington and Adams presidencies could easily seem like a set rocky years for a young America strung together by events and acts of these great men‚ such as treaties‚ international and domestic affairs‚ and advice to try and establish a safe and effective national government.
