One of the two stories I chose was “What You Pawn I Will Redeem”. In this story‚ there are various themes illustrated but I will only talk about homelessness and heritage. Sherman Alexie shows how Native Americans have been marginalized to the lowest form of everyday life in America. They exist below the poverty line‚ homeless and without the means to live comfortably. It’s an unromantic‚ un-idealistic place‚ where the friends that Jackson has abandon him‚ and as a result of this he finds comfort

Sherman Alexie‚ in his poem “Face‚” explains that white people took over the land‚ created customs and introduced their customs to those on the reservations. He develops this idea in the first stanza by using a metaphor to compare both cultures have in common “This sonnet‚ like my reservation‚ keeps/ Its secrets hidden behind boundaries/ That are simple and legal at first read”; in the second stanza‚ he develops an image of how the speaker feels on adopting the “white masters culture” along with

Digital signal processing Digital signal processing Digital signal processing (DSP) is the mathematical manipulation of an information signal to modify or improve it in some way. It is characterized by the representation of discrete time‚ discrete frequency‚ or other discrete domain signals by a sequence of numbers or symbols and the processing of these signals. The goal of DSP is usually to measure‚ filter and/or compress continuous real-world analog signals. The first step is usually to

narrowed down as the condition of being oneself and not another. You have to know yourself well and be able to reflect upon all the things that happen in your life to know who you are or who you could strive to become. In Sherman Alexie’s movie Smoke Signals‚ he emphasizes that you will get caught in trying to find your true identity if you run away from the obstacles in your life instead of facing them. Through the movie‚ the audience gets to know the teenage Cour d’Alene Indian Victor‚ whose dad

The 1998 movie Smoke Signals follows two Native American boys‚ Victor and Thomas‚ on their journey to collect the ashes of Arnold‚ Victor’s father. I thought it was interesting to see the duo’s relationship grow‚ as they were both complete opposites of each other. The director’s choice to show the story of Arnold and help the viewers better understand the boys’ relationship through flashbacks was well done. I also enjoyed seeing both characters grow and watch their relationship slowly mend itself
