IS TRUE CHANGE GOOD OR BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This past year I had a chance to do some writing and reporting for XXL magazine which focuses on the roles of urban culture from clothes, music to technology. One of the most interesting interviews i did was on the Grammy award winning artist Lil Wayne. We all know he has a repetition of allowing trouble to find him, but as a artist the way he brings men, women, and people of all different nationalities together as way to express himself has been topped by no one in music history. I notice in the media we focus on the negatives of how hip hop music has had a negative influence on America but no one speaks about so many people are affected in a positive way and how so many cultures are looked at as equal but of the same likes and understanding of music. The question is should we focus on the change for good presently or the bad of the past.
The diverse U.S
I watch in the media as we speak about the United States being so diverse and welcoming to others outside of our nation. It seems everything comes at cost, we are welcoming to those that supply our country with drugs that supply some of our politicians with money. We don't welcome people that seek government funded living but the owners of athletic teams make us as tax payers pay for the arenas and then pay to come watch the game as they push the money being made out on the players, witch together do not receive 30% of what the owners make ( that's real welfare). America has a nice way of allowing the dominance of favoritisim amongst certain groups by only highlighting what is important to those that may no understand. As I continue to grow and get older I do realize that there are boundaries set up to only allow certain groups as a majority to recieve a certain way of life.
