“It's a lot more complicated.” Negga continued by explaining that Jesse is really important to Tulip. “He's her life,” she said. “It's not just like a boy-girl thing, he's her stability. He's her anchor. I think that's sort of bigger than the whole kind of boyfriend/girlfriend thing.” The former Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. actress also admitted that she didn’t hesitate to take on the crazier moments in the AMC show in the spirit of being “faithful” to Ennis’ series. “You know the comics, they're very lean, aren't they?” Negga asked before stating that anything that takes place in the comic book was relevant. “There's a lot going on but there's nothing excessive in terms of -- there's nothing unnecessary in there,” she said. “I think that everything that does happen in the comics is so...

Even though I personally think that she may have spent a little more time than necessary on the comic book topic for her opening, considering that this was a rather long talk and the fact that she keeps coming back to those references throughout her talk, I think that in this case it

Spike Lee is known to be one of the most innovative and talented filmmakers living today. His films touch upon controversial topics such as racism and religion which has gained a great admiration by numerous of people. Lee’s first feature film, She’s Gotta Have It gained praise by welcoming a change in the representation of African American cinema. Although this film was a success, if Lee had to remove a scene from the film, the sex scene between Nola and Greer would be the one.
In the beginning of the novel, Leah is a young Christian, American girl who looks up to her father, Nathan Price. Leah looks up to her father, describing him as “having a heart as large as his hands.

In Helena Maria Viramontes’ novel, Under the Feet of Jesus, Estrella starts off as angsty and confused, but then shifts to a state of contentment and understanding, caused by life experiences. These character traits are revealed through the selection of detail, figurative language, and tone. Initially, Estrella is immediately characterized as “very angry” when she finds Perfecto’s “foreign” toolbox. She uses a tone of confusion that illustrates her unfamiliarity with the objects in the tool box by using words such as “funny-shaped”, and using a simile comparing her confusion with the tools to the alphabet which Estrella “could not decipher”.
In Bucknell University’s production of Marisol by Jose Rivera, one of the central themes is chaos and the effects of chaos. This theme of chaos is in part seen through the inconsistent timeline of the play. Chaos is also seen through the development of the main characters Marisol, June, and Lenny. Jose Rivera’s purpose in writing about chaos is to parallel the real life experiences of so many people before and even now that live the lives of his characters in Marisol. The chaos is present to give voice to the real people who lived in uncertainty, enduring the insane events of the play.

“The ways in which the characters in Lorraine Hansberry’s play, A raisin in the sun, are affected by racial imbalances and respond to the injustices engendered by such inequities are solely influenced by their gender.” I agree with this statement to an extent. Although it is correct that gender plays a big role in this play, there are other factors to consider. Context:
Ness would fall asleep to the images of men being thrown into the Atlantic Ocean like anchors attached to nothing: no land, no people, no worth” (70). Due to this upbringing, Ness begins to believe that what Esi is shown to her is love and the emotionless and stone-cold behavior is a sign of affection, Yaa says, “Although Ness had met warm slaves on the plantations, black people who smiled and hugged and told nice stories, she would always miss the gray rock of her mother’s heart. She would always associate real love with the hardness of spirit” (71). This exemplifies the beginning of generational trauma where the disconnect between natural and forced emotions is shown and this could be carried onto future generations. Likewise, in Black Panther, Nakia is a spy for Wakanda and during one of her interactions with T’Challa, her beliefs, and morals conflict with the ones of previous rulers where instead of staying in the shadows, they should send aid to the nations that need it (Fig. 2).

Where the Wild Things are by Maurice Sendak is an interesting children’s picture book. The main character is a little boy named Max, who has a wild imagination. He uses all five senses as well as thought and his actions to express his personality as well as how he reacts and interacts with his surroundings. Max’s id, ego and super-ego are greatly shown in this book through the way that the author has portrayed him. Not only is this book a children’s story, but it can also be perceived as a life lesson.
I gathered a lot of evidence throughout Patrick Shanley’s play, Doubt: A Parable, and I conclude that Father Flynn is guilty due to Donald being a very easy target and Father Flynn acting is very odd ways. Donald Muller, the little boy in the story, seems to be a very easy target for a predator. Donald is very isolated in school. He does not have any friends, so he the fact that the priest would accept him would make him feel accepted in the school. Donald is also the only black boy within the entire school.
“A true friend accepts who you are and helps you become who you should be.” Steve and Nathaniel proved that friendship and happiness can be real in the novel The Soloist by Steve Lopez. The way friendship is portrayed in the novel is unexpected in such a way that we don’t see it happen often in our daily life.
