ambassador of jazz. His ability to play the trumpet and his subtle sense of improvisation made him a legend and
influenced the development of jazz.
PRIMARY SOURCE: This image shows Louis Armstrong receiving an ambassador award and multiple other trophies. This supports the statement because it shows how his music sense was able to win him awards and titles.
COMPARISON: He is still widely appreciated in the music industry as a jazz music legend.

Americans in the East and West and North and South listened to the same songs, learned the same dances, and shared the same popular culture. This picture shows how family time was gathered around a radio, and it would keep the parents up to date with events, and it shaped the things people would talk about during their conversations. Compared to contemporary society, many people still listen to the radio and it connects people all across American.]]> 2017-11-15 15:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207245201 mollylmangan https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207251828 Statement: Athletic heroes reassured Americans that people were capable of great feats and lofty dreams. If in our heroes we see our idealized selves, the sports heroes of the 1920s gave Americans a sense of hope. This picture represents for many people a symbol, because Joe DiMaggio came from a not-well-off Italian family, then became one of the biggest baseball players, and leaders, becoming a hero for young baseball players. Compared to contemporary Society, baseball today still remains very popular, and the Yankees remain one of the most followed teams because of their record of having good players. Many people today look up to athletes as they did back then.]]> 2017-11-15 15:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207251828 emilie_cassar2 https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207255381 Statement:  Artists such as Aaron Douglas created paintings with
stylized art that reflected African Americans’ racial pride and collective historical experience.

This image is showing African Americans standing up for their race and pride. This is still relevant in today's society because we see Black Lives matter protests in the north of blacks protesting for their rights and sharing their beliefs.

This shows that women were able to become to first in many things, including being the first woman to get a gold medal on the olympic track. Compared to today, many women are still achieving things in their field, being the first for women, and the role of women is ever-changing. ]]> 2017-11-15 15:57:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207264814 emilie_cassar2 https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207267321 Statement:  F. Scott Fitzgerald is a perfect example of a writer from this genre and another theme that is common for these authors was the death of the American dream, which is exhibited throughout many of their novels.
Compared: The writers of the lost generation were using the death of the American Dream to symbolize their hatred towards America.   The Lost Generation signifies a disillusioned post war generation characterized by lost values, lost belief in the idea of human progress and a mood of futility and despair leading to hedonism. This is shown in the image because it shows the cover of the book with two artists on it in despair. The attitudes of the two authors, sitting on suitcases, shows how disappointing they are with America and how ready they are to leave. This relates to current day society because you see artists experiencing their ideals about America through literature.

People did not understand or appreciate Carr's new form of expression that emphasized strength, emotion and spiritual beauty in bold bright colors. This picture shows how Emily Carr shows the culture of Native Americans with bright colors, and in the background you can see totem poles which shows spirituality, and her pictures show images in the focal point that are large, and represent the strength of her culture. People did not understand her expression because it was something they weren't used to. Compared to today, pictures that invoke emotions in others make people uncomfortable, and when it also comes to spirituality and strength, many people feel strongly about those two things, and when it is portrayed the way they don't imagine, it makes them uncomfortable, especially with the creation of digital art. ]]> 2017-11-15 16:14:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mollylmangan/qaeknaac5thg/wish/207277135
