    Research Paper On Frida Kahlo

    Frida Kahlo was described as “the first woman in the history of art to address with absolute and uncompromising honesty, general and specific themes which exclusively affect women” by life-long lover, Diego Rivera. As a Mexican female artist in the 20th century, Frida’s themes expressed in her artworks were considered highly explicit at the time. She was fine artist who used autobiographical through her extensive output of self-portraits. They are evidence of her need for self-expression and her exploration of identity. She overcame many difficult events including polio, long recovery from a serious car accident, two failed marriages, and several miscarriages some having a direct influence on her art. She used these experiences, combined with Mexican and Native American cultural and stylistic influences, to create highly personal paintings. Kahlo used personal symbolism mixed with Surrealism to express her suffering and anguish through her work. A viewer might classify her paintings as Surrealism, but she considered her art to be realistic.…

    Illegal Immigration: a Threat to America?

    Illegal Immigration: a Threat to America?

    One of the most prevalent issues threatening the well being of the United States is illegal immigration. Because illegal immigration is a threat to national security the United States must stop the in-flow of illegal immigrants. The United Sates has tightened its security at airports ever since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Although the increased security at the U.S. borders has been slow to develop. Why increase security at airports and not at the borders? It is much easier to increase security at airports than it is to at the borders. The money and effort involved to secure the borders is largely different. It is a unique problem that requires an innovative solution. It is taking far longer to even begin to handle the security at the borders, although the United States is finally starting to make some headway. According to a report published on June 17, 2008 by a nonpartisan research group. “Criminal prosecutions of immigrants by federal authorities surged to a record high in March, as immigration cases accounted for the majority — 57 percent — of all new federal criminal cases brought nationwide that month. Skip to next paragraphImmigration cases also made up more than half of new federal prosecutions in February, reflecting a major emphasis on immigration by the Bush administration and a policy shift to expand the use of criminal, rather than civil, charges in its efforts to curb illegal immigration.” (Preston 18) Immigration reform is starting to take shape. Although this recent push to criminally convict illegal immigrants is a start, it does not solve the problem. However, “deportations of illegal immigrants rose from 178,657 in fiscal 2005 to 282,548 in fiscal 2007—up 58 percent. At the same time, apprehensions are down sharply along the 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexico border—in fiscal 2007, 859,000 illegal immigrants were stopped, compared with 1.07 million in 2006—an indication that fewer people are…

    las posadas

    Las Posadas, or the accomodation, is a nine day period to represent The Virgin Mary's nine months of pregnancy and her struggle to find a place to have baby Jesus. This holiday has been a tradition in Mexico for four hundred years. The nine day celebration was started by early friars that combined Spanish Catholicism with the Aztec celebration of the birth of their God. It is celebrated with beautiful Nativity scenes and huge feasts. The people dress up in costumes and reenact Las Posodas. Las Posadas is not only celebrated in Mexico, but Spain, Guaremala, and parts of the Southwestern United States. The celebrations begin on the evening of December sixteenth and end on the evening of December twenty-fourth. On the last night there is a Midnight Mass. The Midnight Mass is the last party before Christmas.…
