As the paper tells, the “Chicago Eight” group was the first group of people to be tried under the Anti – Riot Act.

Nobody wants entertainment that becomes predictable and old. As the new generation audience, we want something that has yet to be done before, something that our ages can call our own and appreciate. Though, given the different tastes of the audience, who is to decide which direction media should go in and if that direction is a good one?
Things like “On the Waterfront 2: Terry’s Revenge” were not seen because the filmmakers did not consider the sequel-itis as something valuable. It was thought that a sequel-itis will injure the original film or will devalue it because of the newly added story.

It is a matter of dispute that whether modern cinema is thematically rich or is it a parody of the films of the seventies? But an overview of the films reveals that modern films lack the inner content and “the 1990s, the 1970s are widely considered to have been a Golden Age of American film” (Best Films of the 1970s).
Whether it is David, Michelangelo’s sculpture, or Mona Lisa, da Vinci’s portrait, I prefer the realism of this type of art over Mannerism. Classical art captures the eye and reveals itself immediately. Mannerism makes one study a painting for hours before finally understanding the art if an individual can ever understand the symbolism meant by the artist. I like art more straight forward.
The author of the paper argues in a well-organized manner that privately-owned banks controlled Australia's monetary policy and the country relied heavily on borrowing money from other countries to bring in new investment.

November 4th, 2008 marked an event in American history that everyone in the world will not forget.

The author of the paper highly opposes the Kansas Nebraska Act because s\he believes it was enacted upon selfish interests.

Architecture has been central to many of the cultures we have studied and had informed us of some of the culture’s main preoccupations. During the Renaissance, architecture became more of a science, with treatises being written and buildings are being documented for their aesthetic qualities.

Prohibition was indeed a great social experiment. Unfortunately, it was an experiment that failed. Prohibition was a great social experiment because it was a democratically instituted social institution. If it had been enacted by a totalitarian regime, then it would have been little more than a ruling by a dictator.
A booming economy that has been hit off late because of recession, advanced technology; superior weapons are some of the many factors that make the US a force to reckon with.

It is interesting to see the way that the show portrays women, like pregnant women whose waists are narrower than most women walking around today.

Just a few decades ago, America was a land of inequality and separation but today the highest elected office in America, as well as the world, belongs to a man from a race that was enslaved, prosecuted, and even ostracized. This is the change that America has experienced and this is the change that shows that Obama is the right man to lead America.
As British Rulers started expanding their rule to Africa, they found the blacks in that continent strong enough to work and not aware or rich enough to question the legality and morality of the system they have been introduced.

The Europeans seem to have developed their own compasses since there are significant differences between the European and Chinese compass as well as the applications for which the compass was used in the two regions (Gurney, 2004).

The movie is also very entertaining in that it evokes many emotions. I laughed, was moved to tears, and found myself cheering and booing, at least internally, throughout the film.

Anti-Semitic sentiments of the British elite are rooted in the country’s history as the Aliens Act of 1905 showed this bias against Jews as it served to restrict the entry of Jewish immigrants (Wistrich 102-103).
