The Black Americans Movement The modern Negro movement established in 1920 became popular at a time when Harlem revived, awakened, and enlightened the blacks about their rights. Harlem, therefore, educated the Africans Americans on the importance of self-independence in America. During this period, different individuals started the move to advocate for the freedom of expression, economic, and social independence. Also, racial segregation of the blacks put down on Jim Crow’s laws. Jim has separated schools, restaurants, public places, and transport between black and white people. Consequently, between the year 1882 and 1968, the number of black Americans hanged was 3500, which prompted the blacks to start the fight for their civil freedoms. Du Bois, James Weldon Johnson, Walter White, and Jessie Fauset are the leaders who spearheaded the black Americans fight by offering financial support and advice to the black people. The difficulties experienced by black women included sexual harassment, physical violence, joblessness, and being killed. Therefore, Susan Anthony and Elizabeth Stanton came up with new ideas and strategies for advocating for the respect of women’s rights. The old negro…
REGULATION OF THE THEATRE BY THE MONARCHY. It is true the monarchy attempted to regulate the theatre in England. The reason behind the regulation was that during that era, the actors were not closely supervised. The implication is that the actors had a lot of freedom, which made most illegal companies claim patronage falsely to the theatre. The performance of the theatre also caused religious controversy as many plays written in those days were religion-related. Due to these reasons, queen Elizabeth took several measures aimed at bringing order during this chaotic period. The monarchy took several measures in the year 1559, such as the banning of plays related to both the religion and political subjects. The monarchy also made the local officials responsible for licensing all the public performance in their jurisdictions. However, these regulations were not effective in 1570, which led to the suppression of religious cycles systematically. The destruction ended in 1581 with the closure of the Coventry cycle. It was declared illegal for anyone below a baron’s rank to authorize a tour or maintain a Troup in…
The Platoon (1986) The Platoon is was written and directed by Oliver Stone. The move is a replication of the Vietnam War and the devastating condition that its impacts left behind. Gruner, Oliver. “Vietnam and beyond: rethinking Oliver Stone’s Platoon (1976–2006).” Rethinking History 16.3 (2012): 359-376. https://doi.org/10.1080/13642529.2012.695046 The article is a combination of works from different authors who have analyzed different films. The author aimed to understand how films can be analyzed by considering both theatrical and not theatrical aspects. The author paid special attention to Oliver Stone’s film “Platoon” because of its contribution to history. This article acknowledges the Platoon as a canvas on which countless historical narratives have been based, especially those that recount the war. It is appropriate for the current study because it provides methodological guidance in analyzing the historical context of the film.

music In Latin America In Latin America, music has been very instrumental in communicating social problems, including issues related to social justice, governance, and lifestyle. Historically, music has been used to express people’s minds and ideas concerning politics as well as criticizing government institutions and leaders. Through music, people have formed social-political movements that have helped to gain independence and protesting against injustices. For instance, the Corridor is the most popular genre in Latin America. These songs have been used to tell myths and stories, including other historical events. This genre was very instrumental during the Mexican independence when some of the songs in this category would be used to encourage people during the time of war. Music has also been used to influence and mobilize leaders to take immediate action in times of crisis. For instance, the ‘Jose Perez Leon’ that tells about a young man suffocating inside a truck as he attempted to cross from Mexico into the U.S. This song referenced a case where 16 immigrants suffocated inside a car in Texas. Most music has historically been…
The National Museum of the American Indian The National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) is devoted to advancing understanding and knowledge of the Native cultures and heritage of the Spanish-speaking hemisphere via a partnership with Native people. NMAI collections have their importance and relevance to diverse populations. The New York show at the museum explores the legacy of indigenous Caribbean people known as the Taino people (Strong, 2015). The museum stems from their culture from the Arawak- speaking community of Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, and Puerto Rico. The culture of the Taino people has been mistaken to be extinct. In a story, the Europeans arrived at the Caribbean in 1492, led by Christopher Columbus, resulted in enslavement, foreign diseases, conquest, and disruption of the native agrarian lifestyle. The process led to a devastating loss of over ninety percent of the indigenous people. The survival of the remaining ten percent after the destruction led to the emergence of the inciting incident of the museum exhibition. The show is about the legacy of the native community in the Spanish-speaking Caribbean. The exhibition…

Marcel Duchamp and the “Readymades” Marcel Duchamp earns the credit for changing the course of the history of art. Duchamp adapted the concept of art. His interest was in ideas, not visual products. Therefore, he started presenting objects as art, which he called “readymades.” Duchamp chose mass-produced objects, commercially available, utilitarian objects, designating them as art and gave them titles. Duchamp’s Urinal (Fountain) The fountain is probably the most groundbreaking art by Duchamp. It is his most famous artwork and perhaps the most brilliant idea of the 20th century. The original fountain was an upside-down that was signed and dated with the appellation R. Mutt, 1917. The Unjuried Society of Independent Artists salon in New York rejected the piece and claimed that it was plagiarism. Duchamp recounted that the fountain was an idea from his discussion with the collector Walter Arensberg and the artist Joseph Stella. Afterward, Duchamp buys a urinal and arranges it for submission to the salon. The directors were bound by the constitution to accept all submissions, which they did except for the fountain. The board believed…

The Beauty of Abstraction: Cubism and Abstract Art Abstraction is the thought process in which ideas are distanced from objects. The concern of the beauty of abstraction is essential in the creative discipline today because it helps mind abstracts to be understood, validated, or questioned. The ideology is resourceful, in validating and questioning concepts. In its beauty, abstraction has helped to evolve cubism art building upon the artist’s learning one at a time. By abstraction, 21st-century artists got the fundamental building blocks to help them understand, learn, and connect their arts with religious beliefs and culture. It also helped in joining the pieces of art to political, cultural, social, or spiritual significance, as noted in cubism arts. Representation of abstraction in the historical period is slightly different from contemporary illustration. In the past, the concern was shown through concepts of mathematical beauty and abstractions of reality in the arts. In this case, the philosophical concepts helped the artists to think critically, understand, and validate ideas and then represent them in arts. By mathematical beauty, the artist made difficult things simple,…
