Being in this semester of Hip Hop Dance and Culture I have learned many new things about the history of Hip Hop. I started getting interested in hip hop in middle school and I would watch my cousins perform with their dance company. That was what I thought hip hop was, I now have learned that it was basically commercialized hip hop. Hip hop is a fairly new culture when compared to older contemporary dances like ballet which has been around for centuries. Through this paper I want to go deeper
In June 1210, Count Simon de Montfort besieged two hundred knights, priests, and citizens within the fortress of Minerve as part of his campaign throughout southwestern France to eradicate the Cathar heresy. Considered impregnable, Minerve stood atop a daunting limestone cliff 246 yards above the Cesse River in the region known as the Languedoc. De Montfort knew that with ample provisions and an internal water source, Minerve’s defenders could outlast any siege, and he had no patience. Within days

"Bronx boy". This represents who they were and were they came from. From what began in the bureaus of the Bronx, leaked and spread through the world since its massive exposure in the 1980's film Flashdance.This film featured the pioneers from Rock Steady Crew as b-boying's first début in the spot light. But behind the scenes, b boying offers more than meets the eye, so it does not make it a simple task. B-boying not only opens the doors for physical endurance, but allows a student of the dance form
Political Rap and Boogie Down Productions In the fall of 1987, Scott la Rock, the DJ of the rap group Boogie Down Productions (B-D-P) was shot in a car after trying to break up a fight (Small 77). In light of B-D-P's role in reforming rap in the succeeding years, his biography is significant; he was college educated and was employed--in addition to his musical activity--as a social worker. He had released a groundbreaking record that year, and had already worked on a follow-up, which would defy
dreamers when they came to California; they hoped to profit from the Gold Rush. They left a feudal system that restricted many aspects off their lives (Daley 14-15). The Irish had visions of a more stable future, coming to California in search of steady jobs (Potter 621). They left Ireland for America to escape the Great Potato famine.

Being found out could change everything they know. Looking out the cracked windshield, the crew marvels at the size of Reynes. It’s so much larger than they would have imagined. Its tall glass buildings capture the setting sunlight, reflecting it back outwards in a spectacular display of dancing orange and yellow twinkles. The harbor is
Ever since the earliest scientists, including the likes of Aristotle and Plato, the question of the morality of man's meddling in nature has been a prevalent issue. While science can provide boundless amounts of invaluable contributions to mankind, ultimately some scientific endeavors should never have been pursued. In Frankenstein, Mary Shelly explores the ethics involved in this query through the creation of a wonder of science, and its inevitable consequences. Much of the analysis of the consequences
