Figure 22. I chose to talk about one of my favorite place called International House at Harrisburg. I've been live in this area for four years; i did not see any other place that has any cultural things. But I could see a very good culture of humankind here. As you can see very well maintained street, no waste thrown here and there and that is awesome. Some trees are also been planted in the shore of footpaths. It represents Eco-friendly development.

Figure 21. Every day I walk by this place to go to university. I did not recognize this awesome painting wall before. Today morning when I was running to class cause I was late for class and my eyes suddenly catch this amazing painting wall with all different colors. I was shocked that how come I didn't see it before or maybe I have seen, but I wasn't paying attention. It's wonderful art. It shows the care of a mother towards her children. She covers the children with her hair as a protection layer. This picture is so lovely because of its value and color. The very bright colors with black borders made the picture attractive and a fine piece of art.

Microsoft exists because Paul Allen and Bill Gates launched this high school business first

I choose to talk about this powerful person in the world is "Bill Gates Co-founder of Microsoft and Philanthropist". He will stay everyone heart. Willam Bill Henry Gates was born on October 28th, 1955 in an upper middle-class family in Seattle Washington. Gates had acquired a place at Harvard University to study law. He would eventually drop out in 1975 to pursue a business with Allen. Gates were inspired by an article in popular electronics magazine on the Altair 8800 "A build it yourself kit microcomputer". They contacted the company who made the Altair called micro instrumentation and telemetry systems or MITS who are located in Albuquerque New Mexico, saying that they were developing a basic software program that would run the Altair computer. In reality they did not have an Altair to work with. The company agreed to a demonstration, so the pair worked hard on writing the program. The program worked, and Allen was hired by the company and Gates would soon leave Harvard to join him. Gates and Allen then established Microsoft on April 4th, 1975 with Gates as the CEO.

African Americans Struggle for Equality.
I would like to use the image from the article of  "African Americans Struggle for Equality" as my exhibition in my final project. I think it would be important to include this image because my main article is about the Struggle for everyone Equality. African Americans face discrimination, segregation and stereotyping for a decade after the civil war. They expected Congress to fulfill the promise of fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. Nearly years past, African Americans are still struggling to have the same rights as any other white person. The civil rights period was a time of supreme court cases protests and leaders of the African American people.

Fight for Equality
I chose my last week one of the artwork i was very much interested to talk about it and more learn about it.
The first artwork was made by Charles White
It is made in the year 1950.
The place is Chicago, America.
The materials applied  to make this painting are colors.
Also, techniques to intensify and show textures of color, skin, and hair are used.
The second artwork is made by Jacob Lawrence
It is made in the year 1958 and called the library.
Paints were used for this artwork. This artwork grew out of Jacob's realization that African Americans were never studied seriously and therefore he went on to make a painting on them.

The Struggle for Equality

I'm interested in this image when I read the first sentence if the article — equal Education- Basically the equal rights on black and whites back in the back days. There were many times where black people would sit in the back of the bus and never be allowed to sit up front. Many times, they would drink from certain water fountains but in this picture I see equality, there is diversity going on in the picture, and they aren’t sitting away from each other. What I see is they are reading, and doing homework in a library, helping others in different races finding books and such. Different religious people in the same place, they are neutral — a primary example of Equality and or Equal Education.

The Struggle for Equality

I chose this image because this image looks like there are 2 African Americans in the cramped area and where it is limited space in a restricted area where they were not allowed to be in. They have lacked the opportunities of having educations. They look like they have a limited amount of food. It seems like they had a very tough time living in an area where they don’t have equal rights. Tough time to provide for families. They don’t feel comfortable around people cause they are scared if they would abuse them and such.

Freedom of religion
I chose this image because I saw a lot of different religious symbol with a word of "freedom." I do know a little bit of every religious rule, and I am curious to know more. In our country, the meaning of religion and the freedom to practice it has been determined by the wayside as minor and unimportant. Religious freedom influences many aspects of daily life, mainly healthcare, education, culture and the ability to live out our beliefs. We all should stand up for this fundamental right.

Sadness of life
The picture shows the flip-side of the success-coin. The hanging man is shown in a corporate attire showing the well-to-do and higher class image. The background is gray showing his world of no other color other than dull gray that also shows depression. He is shown to be bleeding blue and blue represents sadness, depression, etc. It also shows that all the blue that he is bleeding is going into the gutter representing that they are of no value to the world.

4 in 10 Use Social Media to keep up with News
This image shows us that social media play a significant role in our daily lives. It has tremendously changed the way people interact and how people carry on with their everyday lives. However, with the growing of the internet becoming a great necessity in home and office, people start to spend time online as a source of news contents, communicating with friends, etc. Because social media play a great role in our lives is the way news delivered. Furthermore, a high number of people prefer to access their profiles on social media first before visiting news sites.

While I look over the Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History,  my eyes caught the painting of " women in white." the painting looks quite sad and emotional. The artwork of women in white is done by Pablo Picasso. The theme concluded that the portrait might be his wife "Olga koklova" or maybe the combined attribute of koklova and Murphy.
