The Goddess of Democracy was built by the students and citizens of China to try and promote a more democratic environment around the country, and trying to lessen communism. The Statue of Liberty reminds me of the history of it why it was built for. It is obvious that both of them are statues but the reason why it was built for is quite similar. You see Liberty Lady was a gift from France to celebrate a hundred years of history of America and to promote everlasting peace between the Americans and the French, while the Goddess of Democracy
Wood also analyzes Obama’s use of references in his election night speech. He discusses how “Behind his speech were the ghosts of Lincoln’s First Inaugural” (610) as well as “the explicit reference to King’s famous phrase about how ‘the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice’” (611). Both discussions of Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. are included to show how Obama believed his election to be a turning point in history as Lincoln and King’s speeches were a turning point in their time period as well. It was imperative for Safire and Wood to discuss the allusions to others’ speeches in both of their analysis as without the references to others’ speeches both Lincoln and Obama’s speeches would not have had the impact and power that they did.

• Consider Rose's song at the outset of 1.2 • Gabriel's trip to Heaven (1.2) got him the horn to open the Pearly Gates • A fence is also necessary for a penitentiary (1.4) 2. As Troy dominates the play, it seems appropriate to begin with a character description of him. Contrast the description of him offered in the initial stage directions with your first impressions of him in his conversation with Bono. • What qualities or values does Troy seem to hold? o loyalty (see p. 1507 & the A&P; compare p. 1511 -- Pope's story) o hard work (Cory at the A&P @ 1507; learning a trade @ 1516) o
Alexie’s story is a post 9/11 American view of “…little brown guys…” (Flight Patterns 40) from the view of a Native American of the Spokane Indian Tribe. Sherman Alexie, the author of “Flight Patterns”, fills his story with remarks expressing the emotional climate of the American view of people with a medium dark complexion in the aftermath of 9/11. Using a character that resembles his own character in real life, Alexie brings together the contrast of two worlds. He uses William, the main character of “Flight Patterns”, to demonstrate the American view of people who looked even remotely like terrorists. Then, he uses Fekadu, William’s taxi driver, to demonstrate the view of a foreigner with a very different life to let us see the irony in William’s emotional response, as an American, to flying post 9/11.

"What kind of car?" I was suspicious of the way he said "good car for you" as opposed to just "good car." "Well, it's a truck actually, a Chevy." "Where did you find it?" "Do you remember Billy Black down at La Push?"
