Recommended: Influence of mass media on the community

My artifact is a picture of me when I was interviewed by a local news station. This is a significant moment for me because it really changed my perspective of the world. Seeing myself on television made me realize how powerful my voice could be and that I could help my community in more ways than I thought. This experience taught me numerous lessons about community involvement and public speaking. I had never been interviewed before and had always wondered what it was like. This exposure is preparing me for job and scholarship interviews. I felt a sense of pride for my accomplishments done and being to see myself projected to the public. The greatest reward of all of it was talking to my community members after the fact. I met some really interesting

  • Observable Artifacts In Chrysler

    269 Words  | 1 Pages

    Observable artifacts can consist of physical manifestation of an organizations culture. Observable artifacts can be things such as a manner of dress, awards, myths, published list of values, parking spaces, decorations and so on (Kreitner& Kinicki, 2013). One of the main observable artifacts that Chrysler had and the reason Marchionne was upset, was because he did not like the way Fong doubled rebates on cars in order to increase sales. Although Fong’s intent was to bring profit to the company it back fired and caused the company to lose a great deal of money as a result. Another observable change was Marchionne moving his office to the warehouse and not being in the executive part of the building. Espoused values represent the explicitly

    The museum even had a camera from when Truman was in the White House, and the guns from the attempted assassinations. My favorite kind of artifacts were how some rooms were set up like the Oval Office replica and President Truman’s office that you could see if you walked outside to the courtyard. It looks like it is all untouched which makes it look like it is frozen in time. Some other interesting artifacts were the Chrysler, and the Bible that was used at Truman’s

About two weeks prior to the trip, I was asked to fill in for a speaker who was unable to attend the Saturday morning General Meeting at the reunion. I was asked to speak on the importance of researching World War II service for about 15-20 minutes. The speech I wrote ended up combining research and storytelling. When I finished writing the speech, I felt many people

  • Discovering California's Cultural Diversity: A Bowers Museum Experience

    692 Words  | 2 Pages

    ‘Where Masks Still Dance’ was another exhibit I came across while visiting the Bowers museum. This exhibit caught my attention as well because of the awesome symbolic masks that were used as a part of the tribal culture and spiritual belief. These masks allowed those living in isolated villages and tribal communities a symbolic relationship to the spirit world, and for the spiritual leaders it allowed them to control the world around them as they wore the masks and developed their dance routines. I really enjoyed this exhibit because it showed me how this culture handled their daily struggles by hiding behind a mask, and dancing in order to get their minds off of whatever they have going on and increase their chances of survival. This all relates to anthropology and how different cultures practice differently amongst one another. For example, the masks represent in a way to hide ones feelings and keep their stress to a minimum, versus another culture may use a different strategy such as basket

    In class we had a powerful speaker, Ari Schonbrun from Cantor Fitzgerald that came to speak to us about his life-changing experience on September 11, 2001. After the discussion I began to process the advice, and after contemplation I realized that I was being reminded of the legacy I want to leave and the story I want to be written about my life. For example, he asked a question “Does anyone have a dream?” YOu would like with what’s going on in the world, people would hope that somehow they can make a difference. So I responded “I want to be one of the most powerful people that made a tremendous impact in the world.” I wouldn’t know what to call myself because I don’t just want to be label under one category, I want to utilize my skills, passion

    Seeing the art in person truly made me see the beauty and captivity a painting can hold. Each gallery was filled with different American works. My favorite kind of paintings are the ones I can look at and immediately write a story in my head about what is happening, even if it not what the artist intended. As I was going through the galleries one painting in particular stuck in my mind. I was fortunate enough to experience a special exhibition called, “Audubon to Warhol.” It was composed of different works acquired from private and public collections. I was lured to the emotions that was captured by the main figure in one of the works. I was drawn not only to the beauty of the painting, but the story it shared. The painting I chose was Peeling Onions, by Lilly Martin Spencer.

This was a red-figure archaic type of pottery; the name of the pottery is called a Terracotta hydria, which is also known as a water jar. This specific pot was made in Greece and South Italy, around 340-330BC. It was also found at Canosa before the year 1878.

    My favorite public of art is the Statue of Liberty. The first time I’ve ever seen it was when I was eight years old and we were flying to America where our first plane stop was in New York City. I remember seeing it through the window of the airport and being overly impressed with its beauty and how it is exquisitely sculptured. Located on Liberty Island, the Statue of Liberty provides a great scenery of the New York area. It is also next to the old ports where countless of poor immigrants would pass through on a boat looking for new opportunities and a better life. I was told that it represented hope and freedom for everyone who came to the United States. It was a gift, a symbol of friendship, presented to the United States on behalf of
