...and kinesthetic response. The actions will be the stomping in a single filed line and bending to reach down and get the cotton to then place it into their sacks. There will be no dialogue. This composition will require 24 people. Everything should be pretty much in unison and the mood is a sad one. Before the sun rises, all the overseers on the plantation go to each of the four cabins (there are five people in each) and in unison bang on the side of the cabin. The slaves then all get in a single file line, reach down with their left hand to put their sack onto their right side, and in unison step forward twice and then turn to the left. The line leader will then start with his left foot to begin their march. When he stomps everyone in the line follows to stomp with his or her right foot. Everyone will continue to do this in a straight line until they reach the cotton fields. From this line five people will march into each row. Before this happens, the line leader from the beginning will start a hum, and everyone else will repeat him. They continue this hum and begin to step and clap into the row. Until the person in the front of each line gets to the end of the row, everyone will continue to do this in unison for about fifteen seconds (the step and clap will be a slow movement). Everyone will turn to their right, bend down reach with their left, pick the cotton and place it into their sacks on their right side. Then everyone will move down to the next plant after...

...Media has revolutionised tremendously since the past century. Before the era of social media, only recognised news authorities with distinctive powers could report and spread the word of information to the general public. It helps to shape people’s thoughts and perceptions by providing information across the lands and seas. The mass media industry as stated by Steinberg (2007) is “involved in the production and distribution of messages to large audiences” (p. 253). Mass media includes platforms such as newspapers, radio, and TV and now with advance modern technology, information is also available instantly on our fingertips. Severin and Tankard, Jr. (2010) explain that three characteristics define mass media. First characteristic about mass media is that it is “directed toward relatively large, heterogeneous, and anonymous audiences” (p. 4). The other two characteristics involve also as mentioned by Severin and Tankard, Jr. (2010) are that timed messages that go out to the public and the communicator operates “within a complex organisation” (p. 4). However, with the times changing and technology evolving around us, media is available everywhere very easily now. Even though anyone these days can easily report or spread information, higher power still dictates over complete media control. The most well-known term given to an individual who has complete control of the spread and flow information through media is media mogul and the greatest living example of a media mogul is...

...cliché, if just somewhat more precise, evaluation of blacks' incapable musical capacity. “Simultaneously, the African American influence in American square dance and country dance traditions were assumed to be nonexistent, and were largely ignored by students of American culture.” (206, The Journal of Pan African Studies). American native dances like that of “square dancing” were able to develop on their own through already existing inspirations within America; however, this minute example is almost entirely overlooked by the vast majority of dance that can be traced back to the roots of African Americans. “Knee slaps, flat-footed stomps, sandpapery drags, and resounding claps rattle the rafters…” (¶ 1. Stomp the Stage); descriptions of the powerful rhythmic movements that black dance captured so vividly through the expressive design that it created. Stomp the Stage delves into the inspirational and entertaining aspects of African American dance, especially that of Step Afrika!. Constant dominant appearance of African culture within American dance as it became the customary form of pleasure for an audience. American made forms of dancing like “square dancing” were a popular form of movement, but the true beauty of dance came from that of which was inspired by African Americans and African cultural descent. While more intrigue was created over the new styles of movement, customary African Americans were making their own dance workmanship in speakeasies and juke joints. At the point...

...Informative Speech: Cinco de Mayo gives most Americans a reason to drink tequila, eat tacos, and party hard. Today I will explain the history behind this holiday, common misconceptions, and why it is celebrated. According to History.com, Cinco De Mayo took place on May 5th 1862. It commemorates the Mexican army's victory over France at the Battle of Puebla. What was the reason behind the Battle of Puebla? Simply put, Mexico had trouble paying back war debts to European countries, and France had come to collect on this debt. To understand the significance of this victory, consider at the time of this battle, the French army was considered the premier army of the world. 6500 well armed French Troops went head to head against 4700 under equipped Mexican Soldiers. They battled fiercely for 2 hours, until the French were forced to retreat. The Mexican Soldiers thru sheer will and determination had defeated the most powerful army in the entire world. The reason Americans celebrate this holiday is that we appreciate the cultural signifigance of what this battle represents. (Victory in the face of great odds and the Patriotism it generated). A common misconception made with Cinco De Mayo is that it celebrates Mexicos Independence. According to Wikipedia,. Mexico celebrates its independence on September 16, because it was on that day in 1810 that Father Miguel Hidalgo[->0] took to his pulpit in the village church of the town of Dolores and invited his flock to take up arms and join him[->1]...

...LaMontagne was the main inspiration for "Halo". Evan “Kidd” Bogart suggested they create a song in the style of Ray LaMontagne’s “Shelter" for Beyoncé Knowles and her husband Jay-Z, and proposed the title "Halo". After hearing Ryan Tedder play "angelic" chords, they wrote the song in three hours. The song was composed to be a ballad that shows insecurities about love. Beyoncé’s version of "Halo" is a contemporary down tempo power ballad that features an R&B and pop production. It has elements of gospel and soul music. The instruments used in this piece are a piano, a keyboard, drums, a synthesizer, strings, and percussion instruments. The cascading piano work is accompanied by percussive beats that alternate between handclaps and foot stomps. "Halo" was composed using common time in the key of A major, with a moderate tempo of 84 beats per minute. It is built on the chord progression A-BM-FM-D, and is written in the common verse-chorus form. Beyoncé’s vocal goes from the low note of C to the falsetto note of F, and is supported by backing vocals. She stuffs her singing with vibrato yelps and trills, fast changes between two attached notes, about...
