Mohammed Ali's Slurs.

2/7/14

I believe the things we say can reflect our image to someone else. I belive artists, celebrities or people who are well known should especially be careful of what they say. Because they inspire people and change minds. Even though ali wasnt aware about the impact he was doing it can still be offensive. Sometimes song writers dont get the impact thier music has on people. They need to understand thier audience and see if it could offend anyone. overall i believe that

I believe that the article about the avengers is a little sexist. if you look at the pictures, the boy shirt is broad and says "be a hero" while the other shirt made for the girls says " i need a hero" and you could also see that the woman's one is tighter and more figure shaping to female. they are putting a point across saying that women are only good for looks and charm. And the second article about the father picking his daughters clothes i believe isn't sexist. it looks to me like a concerned parent wanting to put a better message across to his daughters. About the way they dress can make a lot of different first appearances.

I Believe that our society should have morals form both Sinead O'connor and Miley Cyrus. I beleive our society should teach young women to be like Miley in a sence that she is who she is and she doesnt care what other people think. She also stands for bieng an indivisual, not a copy people want us to be. On the other hand we should listen to Sinead O'connor that women should be conservitive when it comes to how much they show and have respect for yourself.

5/12/14 Our propject was on a mayor election. We all split into groups and then we were given a canidate we had to sponsor. We had to make profile mailers and bulliten boards to support him. We were also given lists and certain characteristics about our opponenets. On the flip side each groups canidate had a piece of past that were given to us that may make a turning point in the voting election. Some ropoganda we used was our slogan which was "vote right vote rex" making it seem that the only correct way to vote was to vote for rex. We also made profile mailers that were very convincing, we also were adding in our canidates recent achievments and good characteristics in our story timelines.

Overall the most challenging thing about the project was to find a cover for our canidates past when he allegedly grew marijuanna in his attic. If i could redo anything in my campaign i would try to make our advertisments a little more interesting to attract voters. And aslo we should have made a larger more colorful poster. And we should have been more convincing in our campaign statement.

I learned how to advertise in a way to make opponents look bad and to add pictures that willl make our canidate look more "good" or "better" than he really was. I believe i learned how to work in groups better, something that will be useful in other classes. Something i will be able to take from this project and use in the future is that i will know how to elect better and actually look at an advertisment and see if they might be adding anything "extra".
