The song that I chose for this project was “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. The 1966 song is a wonderful representation of the combination of R&B/Soul that created the division of Motown. This song has been reprised over the years but none could come close to the original sound‚ it truly commands respect for the complexity hidden behind simplicity. On that note I wanted to create an experience that was visually simple but extremely elegant and smooth to pay homage

the section of Ain’t No Makin’ It titled The Hallway Hangers: Teacher’s Nightmare‚ we learn that all of the Hallway Hangers had truancy issues‚ skipping school regularly in favor of getting high and hanging out with their friend’s. What most struck me is that Boo-Boo once skipped school for four months and there was no effort by the school to contact him or his parents during that time (MacLeod‚ 2008). While I appreciate the fact that these children were obviously not easy to deal with‚ the school

Equality should be the foundation of peace in the world. Sojourner Truth‚ an ex-slave and women’s rights muckraker presented a speech at a women’s rights convention titled “Ain’t I a Woman” (1851).

In her “Ain’t I A Woman?” speech‚ Sojourner Truth uses definitions of women and descriptions of their strength in order to create an argument advocating for their equality. Instead of using explicit definitions‚ Truth presents implied definitions of what makes a woman. First‚ she explains the societal definition of a woman as someone who “needs to be helped into carriages‚ and lifted over ditches‚ and to have the best place everywhere‚” implying that women are the weaker‚ and therefore inferior

injustices from reading and studying “Ain’t I a Woman” by Sojourner Truth. “That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages and lifted over ditches‚ and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages‚ or over mud-puddles‚ or gives me any best place! And ain’t I a woman?” Truth recognizes that white women are not treated the same as men‚ she then realizes that no one is campaigning for her or women of color. She lived in a time where in most cases she wasn’t

The “Nude Descending a Staircase” is a complicated and difficult piece of art to understand‚ yet it is fascinating to me. The artist chose to express his feelings through his paint‚ instead of following any art tendency. The artist uses mostly straight lines and you barley can see three or four circular lines in the whole paint. By doing this‚ it is captivating how
