    Wax Museum Experience

    As I walked through the Blacks in Wax Museum I was both upset and happy by what I saw. Going into the slave ship and seeing the slaves being branded like livestock and shackled one on top of the other really brought to life the struggle that the slaves had to endure. I don’t understand how the white people can think of the slaves as less than human‚ and at the same time want to rape the women. The Lynching Exhibit opened my eyes to how cruel people can really be. What hit home was the story of pregnant

    What made you chose this particular piece? This piece was appealing to me because of the horse’s dark body and its light accents. This piece was different from the others that surrounded it. Most of the other artifacts contained brighter colors. This piece was also different because it did not have sharp lines and some of the colors were combined. How does this piece connect to a broader understanding of the following (do all that are appropriate for your piece): anthropology‚ sociology‚ political

    This was my second visit to the Holocaust museum‚ and I truly appreciated it much more than my first visit. Instead of reading every single word written upon the wall at the museum‚ it was the visual parts of the museum that really moved me and made me ask more questions about the Holocaust. When I walked through the box car I got the chills knowing that during the Holocaust it would be filled with more than 100 people and there was no bathroom for people to use. When I saw hundreds of dirty shoes

    The Metropolitan Museum of Art‚ known to be a sanctuary for a great collection of art‚ was brimming with tourists and locals when I decided to visit with my friend and my mother. However‚ looking back on my experience‚ visiting such a place is something you should do alone because it allows you to appreciate all of the pieces of art without the limitations of bringing someone along with you. I titled this “A Vacation in the Metropolitan Museum of Art” because although we only stayed for a few hours

    Ella Sharp Museum Jackson Exhibit Overall Ella Sharp is an art and history museum. The exhibit I went to was the one on Jackson history. It is one of three permanent exhibits in the museum. The Jackson Exhibit was about the history of Jackson Michigan area from “pre-history to now (circa. 1980’s). It took me a good bit of searching to find the exhibit label. Partially because I thought the label should be near the main entrance to the exhibit and larger than a 9x11 piece of paper. But once I did
