This enticement is achieved by feeding into the human desire for happiness. Advertisers create persuasive campaigns that inundate the public with images of societies narrow interpretation of success and beauty. These images are then presented as a precondition to the happiness that human beings are searching for.

    [1] Mohawk writer Beth Brant is on a mission, a mission to redeem the reputations of Powhatan princess Pocahontas and Cherokee Beloved Woman Nancy Ward. Touted as "good friends" of the whiteman in white legend because of actions complicit with white welfare, these two famous Native American women are simultaneously scorned as "traitors" to their race.

The group's activities are usually criminal or pose a threat to the community. However, they don't usually see themselves as the real threat but rather as a group that works to improve their community.

    Linda Nochlin in “Lost and Found: Once More the Fallen Woman” points out how “fallen” in the male world means heroic inspiration for the most part but for women the term is applied to sexual activity out of wedlock, whether or not it is for her gain. It was often incorporated into writers and social critics’ work. This particular view was fascinating to nineteenth-century artists (in the middle years) especially in England. The theme was undertaken by Dante Gabriel Rossetti whose interest was so great almost to the point of obsession. He devoted a number of his poems and pictorial works to the subject. The painting, Found (unfinished), was devoted to the subject, occupied his time from 1853 until one year before he died. It was a work he could never put aside or resolve. Rossetti describes the picture to Holman Hunt on January 30, 1855 seemingly straight forward stating that it takes place in London at a street at dawn with lamps still lit. A driver left his cart in the middle of the street and goes after a girl who has passed him wondering the streets. When he comes up to her and he recognizes her she immediately sinks onto her knees in shame against the wall of a raised churchyard in the foreground. The male stands and holds her hands, which he had to take deliberately, which he holds in bewilderment and half guarding her from self-hurt. Rossetti states that these are the main things in the picture which are to be called “Found” and for which his sister Maria has found him a lovely motto from Jeremiah that states. “I remember Thee, the kindness of youth, the love of thine espousals.” The complete implications and significance of the work and its relationships are “anything but straight forward”. This can be best understood best through examining 19th Century perspectives. Rossetti makes ideological assumptions in his attempt to invent the secular image of the fallen woman. He, and many others who…
