One of the most memorable days I have ever experienced was my mum and stepdad’s wedding. They were married in Zante, a beautiful Greek island. We had to fly over there a week before the wedding to make sure everything was ready for the big day. Over the two weeks that we were, there people were frantically coming and going, but thankfully all were there for the actual wedding.

An injustice to one civilian can spread and create injustices across the country to hundreds of people. In Dr. King’s letter from Birmingham, he states, “I cannot sit by… and not be concerned about… Injustice anywhere is a threat to rights everywhere.” (King, 1). This demonstrates that Martin Luther King understood that the injustices happening in Birmingham cannot be ignored and it is detrimental for there to be a change as this can later start to affect other places.

I think the relationship in Seurat’s work, between the project to “restore painting’s cultural significance,” and the “mass culture” that he sought to address is the demonstration of alienation in his paintings of society. This theme greatly connects with two paintings by Georges Seurat, which are A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of the Grande Jatte, 1884-6. Oil on canvas and Chahut 1889-90, Oil on canvas. Seurat’s painting of the Grande Jatte shows women, men, and children from all classes...

The first thing that comes to mind when the word ‘privileged’ is mentioned, you normally would think of an advantage that individuals have that others do not. An example of privileged is the money to afford an expensive education. In this case, education should not be considered a privilege nor should it be earned. Free education may not be a ‘fundamental right’ listed in the Constitution, but the 14th Amendment states that no child living in that state may be...
