A BIOGRAPHICAL STUDY OF WILLARD WHITE AND LAWRENCE BROWNLEE From the past, African-American males held significant roles as singers in the United States. Stretching from the street vendors,’ musical sounds in the 18th century in Philadelphia to the Motown’s irresistible dance tempo, the male Black’s music had dominated the entire cities of the United States. This assertion implies that the African-American male singers have impacted the music genres, which has contributed towards the American music sound. Considering the victory and suffering encountered by the Blacks in the United States, their positions in the music industry is still a victory to be celebrated. Their music has shaped the Americans’ identity, which has been the basis of impacting the lives of many individuals around the world. The African males who were taken to the United States came from distinct ethnic groups and approached the music industry in unique ways. Some male Blacks brought music equipment, while others developed new ones while in the states, which shaped a new look to the American opera music. For instance, the “banshaw,” which is currently…
Research on Protective factors that increase resilience in youths Introduction Reportedly, there lies a certain degree of stress and tension in every individual and more prevalently among the teens in some populations. The degree of their ability to cope with these stressful situations varies from young adults to the elderly. In the case of risks due to intensive stressors, external support, both formal and informal, is needful for the prevention of negative consequences in development. Individuals of all ages need to understand the concept of resilience, especially when dealing with children and youths who are at risk. Teenagers from not well to do backgrounds are allegedly more vulnerable to dealing with stressful situations. Resilience refers to a special kind of competence that assists people with difficulties and not bearing a stable personality. It is essential in making positive development in harmful situations. It helps maintain inner balance and avert future challenges. The common understanding from recent research is that an individual develops the capacity to adapt, recover, and maintain stability when exposed to adversity from a personal crisis. While resilience…
Profile essay:Kennedy Roy Kennedy Roy was born in 1942 He grew up in a devout Catholic Roman family, where the church was at the center of his life. However, he endured the harsh criticism of his parents back then. As a prosperous Coppersmith, his father had risen from the feudal system into the new middle class. His dream was for his son to go up the social ladder as well. To assist in the success of his son, Kennedy’s father was harsh of his son’s charisma, and often he was harshly disciplined for his shortcomings. Kennedy developed low self-esteem and fear of failure from these events, which affected every aspect of his life, including his spirituality. He aimed to create public awareness of racism, to end racial discrimination and US racism. Although his objective was racial equality, Kennedy planned a couple of small targets that included local grassroots equal rights movements for black people. He developed several corresponding rights campaigns whose aim to harness the moral authority and mobilize the strength of the black churches to carry out nonviolent civil rights reform…

Natalia Ginzburg’s He and I In Natalia Ginzburg’s He and I, what intrigued and puzzled me in equal measure was how the writer has gotten used to the mediocre state of her marriage. She vividly paints the picture of a single-sided relationship where the woman is underappreciated. She plays second fiddle to her indifferent husband and relies on his validation and approval. The inequality that characterizes this relationship is evidenced when the writer points out that “My tidiness and untidiness are full of complicated feelings of regret and sadness. His untidiness is triumphant. He has decided that it is proper and legitimate for a studious person like himself to have an untidy desk” As a result of this broken relationship, the writer undervalues herself and doesn’t think of herself as having great taste, being intelligent or useful for a lot of things. The writer makes use of first-person narration as though she was narrating to either herself or an audience. Her frequent use of “I’ to continually refer to herself makes the narrative personal and establishes trust with her audience.…
Can you imagine the author’s spirituality as a useful model for a contemporary setting, or in your context; why or why not? Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in his book Life Together, is a reflection on his perspective regarding the Christian community. His thinking towards the contemporary setting is quite useful since it equips Christians with ample knowledge concerning the way they should live their lives with each other in a Christian community. I believe that Dietrich was a true believer through the way he explores the characteristic concerning the way of Jesus. His advice to all Christians states that they should adhere to obedience since that what Christ requires from them as well as being our brother’s keeper in advising each other against disobedience (p. 96). Dietrich also advocates for togetherness in our daily activities for both individuals and the community. I support his argument of whether one loves communism or solitudes, all are aspects that shape human life. I love the way he explains that Christians should embrace both since none can survive without the other, thus shunning the act of…
Letter to Tracy Dear Tracy I suspect your experience in Canada must have been one of the most exhilarating experiences in your life, just as it was to me. Canada offers people from diverse walks of life to have a taste of what they offer not only through pursuing education or employment but also through tourism. I am happy that during your stay in Canada, you had a real taste of culture and enjoyed the warm hospitality of the Canadians. Similarly, when I first came to Canada in 2016, my reception was through someone we are not related. However, just like in your case, the hospitality I received during my initial three months stay in Canada remains unmatched. I believe that the aspect of a good neighborhood is prioritized immensely in Canadian society. Again, your struggles to form relationships resonate well with my initial encounters when I felt that relationships in Canada are relatively hard compared to my native country. Here in Canada, people are liberal-minded and value the respect of individuals in society. However, my integration in Canadian society…
Linguistic pet peeves Linguistic pet peeves are words that people misuse when communicating. Some people use words and phrases which seem to annoy others more. For instance, using a word like incentivize instead of motivate annoys me more. Another word that drives me crazy is when people add an n to the word other when using it after the word whole.An example of the sentence with an n added to the word other is when someone says “that’s a whole nother matter”. It really irritates me. I wonder why use the term nother other than using other which seems to be easier and understandable. Another word is when someone uses word past history when referring to something that happened before. That is not right according to me. However, there is a correlation between linguistic pet peeves and ecological perspective as well as the prescriptivism perspective and this relation is explained below. Linguistic and ecological perspective is portrayed in different tribes in the world. despite its benefits, the perspective is rejected in the education systems of many countries whereby they undermine the culture and language of different students. Linguistic and prescriptivism perspective…
Advanced Practise Nurse (APN) Introduction Advanced Practise Nurse (APN) needs to have a full understanding of the culture and spirituality of their patients to provide care that is sensitive to the two elements. I have always strived to cultivate spiritual and cultural awareness in my nursing practice since it will increase my capability of providing care to a diverse population and also foster inter-professional relationships (Darnell and Hickson, 2015). This process has been realized through reading journal articles, textbooks, and research on the internet to ensure that i am spiritually and culturally competent. Assessment of Cultural Needs I hold the view that APNs need to assess the cultural needs of the patient before recommending treatment. This approach can be realized through effective communication will all patients, clients, or even their family members (McCarthy, 2015). Questions relating to ‘how?’, ‘when?’, and ‘what?’ are significant when assessing the cultural needs of the patient (Darnell and Hickson, 2015). For instance, in some cultural contexts, eye contact and physical closeness may be interpreted differently. The APN should not be afraid to ask the client,…
