war

WAR by: Sick puppies

This was an easy song to pick considering that its titled war, and its about fighting and to never give up in the fight. also in the beginning it says should of stood up when u had the time, so that also means be brave, and fight before its over and time runs out, and u didnt contribute to the war.

siegfried sasoon poem " how to Die" ( i couldnt paste it idk y)

this poem was very visual to me, i could picture the soldier himself laying on the battlefield, waiting for deaths blanket to cover him. the poem itself was well written and somehow beautiful even though its about a dying soldier. i enjoyed reading this epic poem, it was deep, and made me cry a little.

sassoon actually joined the military and fought in world war 1, his father was jewish, his mother anglo catholic.

This poster tells people to join the airforce, and be a pilot for the army. This encourages people that joining the army as a pilot is right, and the country as well as uncle sam needs them.

Ioloni Palace where king Kalakaua and Queen Lili'uokalani lived as monarchs. The government overthrew the king and queen in 1893, not only from there positions but also from the palace that was built for them.


ok so the New York World was different from other, plain and dull newspapers, because it brought color, and creativity on the paper. Pulitzer was also going blind, so to contrast against this he made bold letters and a lot more jazz and spunk to the paper

Immigrants


Man on the right in a top hat and full beard: Oh my goodness O my goodness, it smells terrible in here, well i guess these people could not help it now considering that most of them have spent the last few weeks on that darn ship. I hope that the people here give me a good job, but as an honorable man from Germany i will be happy to do anything. Wait, what if they do not let me in then what would I do, i know that i dont have any diseases but what if they shave my super amazing beard. I sure hope that they can pronounce my name right also, Matthais Jeager. I heard of this one lady who got her name changed completely and could not change it back. I really hope that i can find a job, a decent job too. What if i dont get a job at all then what am i suppose to do? i know that i have skills that will do in any feild but i dont know if i can even tell them that due to this weird language. Well im here i hope this goes good...
