    Woman all have one thing in common‚ unrealistic powers that they use for good. When a picture of a “hero” is searched‚ images of men flying with capes will be the number one result. So that must be all there is to being a hero. The French epic poem The Song of Roland portrays the ideal hero‚ or knight‚ as Roland‚ one of the twelve peers under King Charlemagne’s rule.

    phrase “protest song” I immediately thought of songs and chants that are sung during picket lines and at rallies. I first believed that protest songs must directly address an issue that the artist or group of people wish to see changed in the near future. After doing some research I found that protest songs do not explicitly state that they are wishing for change. The song “Paper Planes” by M.I.A‚ or Mathangi Arulpragasm‚ is by my definition of the phrase‚ a protest song. This song was written in

    African figures are placed in the context of their often denuded environment‚ while Yellow Houses (the first work by a black artist bought by the Johannesburg Art Gallery)‚ reduces the human presence‚ focusing instead on the environment itself. In Song of the Pick‚ naturalism gives way to severe stylisation: a rank of workers wield picks in unison‚ forming a powerful image of African labour; a white overseer’s figure is dwarfed‚ even threatened‚ by this phalanx of diggers. In 1947‚ Sekoto left for
