The Music Video I picked: Jason Derulo--"Swalla" (ft. Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign)

1. The men in this video I feel play the more dominate more controlling. Women play the more pornographic part.  Women are far more exposed to men in this video vs the men.

2.  I feel the sexuality tells alot in this music video. Like I said women are way more open about there body than men. Men are mor attracted wanting attention.

3. I watched the music videos without sound it basically  shows that these guys are just wanting to have sex with all the girls and the girls are playing to get hard in a way. He's trying to pick a girl that he wants to sleep with tonight.

4. It challenges the stereotypes because in the video the girls for all you know they are just wanting to perform in the video and get money. When people watch this video say for example in my culture they would think that this is a shame that girls are doing this in public.

5. The last questions is very interesting because you can stop teens from watching this. All they can do is google everything now a days without there parents knowing. It shows sexuality and sometimes you can't do anything about it..

Anti Ad

This really anti-ad really struck out to me because the way the designed the cigarette as like a thermometer is interesting. They are showing age as the temperature and the actual cigarette like your fever essentially as it's rising and that it's not making you live much longer. The picture is also saying how that man has slowly risen and aged is slowly dying because of smoke.

Hello,

The song I chose for this assignment was Rihanna-Work Ft. Drake. The reason why I thought this song was super explicit was because I mean it's in almost every video you see how all the men in this video control the women. For example Rihana is all up on Drake her ass and just Drake is just melting of her. But you see all the other men in that video having the control of women. Some ladies are just twerking while men get so turnt and they just go up to them and start dancing. Many music videos in today's world kind have the same concept going. Another music video with the same song just Rihana and Drake is super crazy. Rihana with her see through shirt boobs showing and Drake just going up to her watching while she dances it's crazy how you can the music industry trends with different aspects.

This image represents the syrian civil war that's happening in the middle east. A picture can identify a million words. This image struck to me because as you can tell how these men are super devastated and everything is around them is destroyed. Nothing is left for them except what they have in their hand which is there baby. The father looks like he's doing the best he can to keep his newborn and sacrifice everything else. If I was in his position and as many others may agree I would do the same. It's even hard running away because you don't know which way the bomb is coming... It's simply a lost of words and something to think about that we should always appreciate what we have and stop complaining!

This is the second image I chose because we always struggle amongst ourselves with this and we want to do everything your own way. Sometimes it can be appropriate to have your own say and to do what you want, but at the same time you have to face reality. Some people just don't like to listen to what others say and it may cause a lot of conflict between them. Your not always obligated to listen to anyone but it is respectful to listen to peoples advice but you can either take it or leave it. At work sometimes I do observe many conflicts within other departments and they never come to a resolution because everyone thinks there right and no one is wrong. They don't to a conclusion and try to work it out so we can prevent it from the future no it comes up every time which at times can be frustrating and annoying. 

The most recent proposition I chose to look into is prop 64 legalizing marijuana.  The reason I chose to look into this proposition is because I thought it was interesting to see how long they have trying to pass this for decades. Even though many people always do it on the low key even though now it's legalized I feel people now are just taking more advantage of it. According to ballotpedia, "The Drug Policy Alliance Network (DPA), also known as the Drug Policy Alliance, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in New York, N.Y. that actively promotes drug policy reform legislation. According to its website, DPA is an organization that aims to find drug policy alternatives that are "supported by science, compassion, health and human rights." It's crazy how the world is changing and sometimes it tends to me scary. But at the same time having the freedom to do whatever you to a certain limit matters. So stand up for what you believe in no matter what.

Hello,

I honestly don't like to watch the news because I know most of it is complete bullshit and trying to grab everyones attention. The only news media I sometimes follow is European media or Aljazeera. Sometimes Al Jazeera can be sometimes fake. The reason I may know that is that I have a few cousins that work at Al Jazeera and all they talk about how sometimes they have to be forced into saying some news that they don't want to say. It's scary because you don't even know who to believe anymore. The news used to be reliable in so many different aspects but now it's just everywhere especially with our new presidency.

Gun Violence? Well let me tell you that back in the Middle East almost all my family owns guns. But they don't know when the right time to pull a trigger. The reason I bring this up is because now in the Middle East it's super crazy and no one is held accountable for anything. For example in Jordan the Police is their is everyone is friend. Say if a cop stops you right, you tell the cop here's like 20 Dinar for you he lets you go. Say when theres a fight around the block and cop wants to pull a trigger to stop the violence he doesn't really pull it he just acts stupid and starts yelling at the people to make them scared.
Going into for example video games. I know someone that grew up playing video games all his life and I saw him growing up. Every time we would go to his house he's always playing those games where violence and gun shooting are always in action. When he gets off he starts coming at us and pointing with his fingers like a trigger sign and saying I'm going to shoot you and so forth. Little by little his parents started to take away those games from him because they were the ones who bought them in the first place. I mean it's sometimes how you raise your kids and what choices they make at the end. But I believe that every person should always have back up no matter what.
