Linguistic and nonlinguistic causes of reading difficulties
Linguistic and Nonlinguistic Causes of why an Individual may have Difficulties in Reading. Causes, Characteristics a student may display; research; Strategies to help a student become a more successful reader.
Neuroimaging shows that some reading impairment may be reduced to developmental dyslexia where, for instance, the brain confuses letters because they sound alike (rather than dyslexia being simply a visual problem), or the brain has difficulties, along a spectrum, in either the memory, motor and cognitive systems. The brain imperfectly visualizes and divides letters. Poor readers use different neural pathways than effective readers, and defective readers moreover rely on Broca's area for decoding text. Not only do dyslexic brains work harder at decoding, but they also different parts of the brain than good readers do

During Harlem's renaissance, Atlanta was often called "the Harlem of the South" due to its rich heritage, particularly in the area of music. Famous artists such as Bessie Smith, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Jackie Wilson, Dina Washington, and Billie Holiday regularly performed in Atlanta's many exclusively-black clubs. Accommodating many tastes in music, the clubs featured minstrel, ragtime, vaudeville, blues, jazz, classical, rhythm and blues, and soul. Atlanta's influence is not merely limited to music, however; with the third largest black population among American cities, Atlanta has proven itself to be a bastion of opportunities for African Americans in the areas of higher education, sports and all types of artistic expression.
