Social tension within the film can also be seen among the Brooks children. Gideon refuses to live in the house, instead opting to sleep on the roof. In the film, Gideon is the most militant and proactive in voicing the need for action. Furthermore, he encourages and advocates the embrace of African culture, which Mr. Brooks appears to have turned his back on. On the other hand, Shariff -- aka Booker T. -- demonstrates that he shares similar attitudes as his father; he admits he prefers to date white women because he is intimidated by black women, thus insinuating that the wants to exercise control over women but because black women are independent and stand up for themselves.

This is especially important in the film as Williams demonstrates that these issues are continuously changing with society; as a community becomes more accepted within society, so do their cultures and traditions.
While character changes in attitude occur in an unrealistic timeframe, the film reflects a community's desire to establish their own identity. Five on the Black Side demonstrates that blacks cannot continue to strive to be a copy of what whites consider ideal, but that they should base their identity on who they are, who they were, and who they want to be in society.

Blackest Bird opens on July 26, 1841 at midnight. A man, somewhat reluctantly and with a twinge of guilt, dumps Mary's dead body into the Hudson River. The killer audibly cries out, teeming with guilt as he wonders what have I done? "Oh Mary!" (Rose 11). Therefore, the killer knows Mary, and was likely either in love with her or a close companion. He could even be her relative. Detective Jacob
The Black & Decker DOM system aligns with the Distributed Order Management (DOM) Hierarchical Model shown in Figure 1 as is shown in the Appendix of this study. This model conceptually illustrates how the Black & Decker supply chain, DOM, and distribution networks are integrated with each other (Johnson, 2003, et.al.). The Data Services of Black & Decker, as defined by its customer- and shipment history databases, anchor the model,
Tone brings the history of birth control to life, exploring the underbelly of an industry that is not only still booming, but also almost completely culturally accepted in the 21st century. This allows the reader to not only understand the trials and efforts to build up a valuable industry, but the lessons learned about the cultural atmosphere, and both the moral and scientific beliefs of the time can be
Moreover, it is unclear whether Jim has attempted to reestablish any meaningful contact with his children; rather, his entire focus has been on becoming a better person. While there is certainly nothing wrong with that goal in and of itself (it is, after all, a universal human quality), he appears to have pursued this goal to the total exclusion of making any substantive reparations to his family. Finally, it is
Black Power Movement and Cinema of the 1960s and 1970s: A Discussion of Overlap As many scholars agree, all art is a product of its time. The social tensions, trends, patterns of thought and political issues of an era can’t help but influence the art that is created and consumed. This is particularly true with cinema and all forms of media arts. This paper will examine how the Black Power movement
