New York Post Chimp Cartoon

When seeing this image, “Wow” was my first reaction. By observing it, I got really aggravated knowing at the fact that there are still ignorant people out there. People need to realize the world we live in today is not the same like back in the 1800s or early 1900s. The comic misrepresented our president very badly!

The Chimp Cartoon has no positive messages and is very offensive to look at. By showing a monkey that supposedly resembles African Americans who’s being gunned down by two Caucasian police officers is very disturbing. I feel that this image resembles President Obama who has the power of our country and the “White Males” mission is to take him down! The person who created this comic should be punch in the face!!!! He needs to get over at the fact that Obama Barack, who’s not white, is the president of the United States! No matter how much of a positive impact President Obama has done for our country, people will still make racial remarks or are out to attack him.

I find President Obama to be very inspiring. He always has his head up even if vulgar and racial remarks are being made about him. He stands strong by ignoring them and doing whatever it takes to better our country.

Modernization, Modernism, and Post Modernism

The social evolutionism theories talks about the idea of modernization dealing with the evolutionary model. It explains how each culture was evolved from barbarism reaching to its levels of growth and people. The citizens living in the modern states are considered to be wealthier and more authoritative as well as having a higher standard of living. The proponents of modernization perspective view the Western society to be very modern. To them it doesn’t matter if people have the same standard of living as the Western society, they will always see it as an inferior.

Modernism deals with a variety of cultural movements involving in the changes of Western culture in the late 19th and early 20th century. Modernism is the testing and destruction of a human understanding and experience of life. It also plays role in the movements in art, architecture, songs, writing, and etc.

"After the modernist movement" is the understanding of the word postmodernism. The word modern is associated with something dealing in the present. Therefore, the movements of modernism and the postmodernism reaction are known to be set of perspectives which are cultural and logical facts.
