The problems with having massive population of pigeons are being described by the writer as his second argument. He creates a very negative view of pigeons in his readers as he describe these ‘pests’ presence as a ‘plague’. By telling his readers about how the pigeons attract ticks, cockroaches and rats, he attempts to build an undesirable idea of the pigeon in the readers’ minds. Bonella also implies the inconvenience and harm that the citizens have faced. He explains this using the strongly negative terms such as ‘clogging’, ‘stumbling’ and slithering’ to put a clear image in the readers of the great impacts they have on people.
The color points to his guilt and his own corruption. Dark blues and bright reds set the stage for murder and corruption. Billy Flynn describes the level of corruption in his song “Razzle Dazzle”, wearing a burgundy jacket, describing the law and the courtroom as a three-ringed circus in Chicago. His repeated phrase is "that's Chicago." The world that Marshall paints is dark.
Ralph Ellison uses motifs and symbolism to show the struggle for independence that the narrator faces due to segregation between blacks and whites. First, Ellison uses motifs to show the reader the complexity of the segregation between the two races throughout the story. One of the motifs used throughout Invisible Man is the use of the colors black and white. Anything that was white throughout the story was considered to be pure and superior, while the color black was used to describe filth and people who were to be looked down upon. After the narrator arrives in New York he is recommended a job at the paint factory where he notices severe amounts of segregation.
In 1877 Riis became a police reporter for the New York Tribune. Knowing the struggle of life in urban poverty, Riis was fixated on utilizing this opportunity to employ his writing abilities to communicate and raise awareness of this inhumane treatment that was present in a “civilized society” to the public. He ceaselessly claimed that the "poor were the victims rather than the makers of their fate.”
Ferguson & Baltimore, Segregation to Separation: Prophecy Coming To Pass It is unfortunate that, the violent racial riots in Ferguson and Baltimore, that occurred after the death of clearly innocent Black youth, has diverted the public debate to ‘need for better policing’. The casualty has been obfuscation more fundamental issues like; century-old public policy of systematic social segregation, increasing economic inequality, and wholesale abdication by the state of social welfare obligations Century-Old Systematic Segregation According to The University of Chicago’s sociologist, Douglas S. Massey, “Housing segregation is both a consequence and a cause of Black poverty. Housing markets distribute not only a place to live, but they
racism perpetuates the fear of people who are different it focuses on the differences between cultures. Alan jones was a master in directing the audience towards the differences between the two culture. Again jones uses a variety of techniques to capture and engage his audience he highlights how middle eastern cultures are weak and feeble ‘’my suggestion is to invite one of the biikie gangs to be present in numbers at cronulla railway station when these Lebanese thugs arrive it would be worth the price of admission to watch these cowards scurry back into the train to the run to their
Kazan’s decision to make the film black and white also aids in portraying these elements. He allows for Edie’s highly-lit face and hair to clearly juxtapose Terry’s often half-lit face and darker figure (especially in the scene where Joey is pushed off the roof), showcasing Edie’s struggle to reveal Joey’s killer in an outspoken way; “I want to know who killed my brother!” as well as Terry’s issues that are dealt with internally - in the ‘dark.’ In this case, Kazan indicates to the viewer how Terry and Edie are affected by
He is using the language of that period in time and using it to focus in on the corruption of that period. He ultimately criticizing the white society for the cruelty they show towards blacks. No one can doubt that there is a lot of racism in the novel, but when the reader digs deeper into it, Twain is using the theme of racism to point out how ugly and corrupt white society was in that time. Huck Finn is a classic, but ultimately is there to remind us what is at stake when we passively accept social injustice, opening the door for all of the ugliest aspects of humanity. Children need to learn how society used to be and how it has changed.
Firstly, Swarup conveys that the social Caste System still has a great influence on the Indian society today because it has created a dividing line which still separates the rich from the poor. In the “Prologue” of Q and A, the readers are confronted with the effects of poverty, where “your whole existence is illegal” and “arrest has a certain inevitably about it”. By using second person to describe the scenario, Swarup drops the reader into the action with horrifying clarity that being arrested by the police has become a natural, necessary part of living in the slum. The uneventfulness of Ram’s arrest also suggests the idea that his existence is not valued because of his caste. Through this Swarup is able to highlight the stagnant nature of social hierarchy in India today.
Secondly, I want to talk about the adventure scenes. During the adventure scenes the music tends to be energetic with a hint of a surprise in the music. What I mean by a surprise is this, they could be on their way to their destination when they were attacked and from there the music would become darker. Another particular adventure scene was when all the other main characters were together to help Frodo destroy the ring. The music then was not as energetic but it seemed strong because it had a full orchestra which told me that Frodo along with everyone else were ready for whatever was to come.
