The narrator is very irate and convincing. The music is eerie and dark throughout the film. The speed is slowed down so they narrator can make the correlation of the dance moves to fit the demonic symbols. The dance is a reference to Egyptian contortion, because Egypt is unknown and most people reference Egypt with an ancient mythical history. The dancers are younger people who are their to appeal to parents mostly. They are in the video appearing to be confused and lost to appear as though they are being controlled in a demonic form.

corner shot gun

This gun allows the shooter to look around corners and shoot enemies without putting their own lives in dangers. The corner shot is a cyborg extension to the human body. The gun changes gun battles because the user leads more with their gun. The ability to peak around corners enhances eyesight and is also an extension of the arms giving it that extra reach around the corner.Guns are becoming more relied upon for the safety of the user, instead of the user having to rely on tactics that put them in the line of fire.

The value of black minstrel toys
http://www.prices4antiques.com/toys/wind-up/Wind-Up-Marx-Spic-Coon-Drummer-Black-Minstrel-Lithographed-Tin-D9784464.htm
The perception of black minstrel toys is apart of a tragic point in history. Do people collect the toys to fulfill their racial desires? Are there people that want people to remember a time when slavery and racism was an industry? These toys are seen in auctions and often fetch a high value. At one point the toys allowed children to accept racism. Why are collectors so passionate on completing their collections.

When you need to figure out something, so you look it up in a book, like in the olden times, when dinosaurs ruled the earth.

Guy 1: Quick! What's the definiton of "callow?"
Guy 2: I don't know! My iPhone 4 doesn't get signal here!
Guy 3: Book google that shit!

Guy 3: Book google that shit!
The term book google shows how media has effected overall research. Books are now a secondary source when people are researching information. It's funny how a single search engine contains the same information as books would. The only thing that effects internet research is a technological issue. The validity of information on the internet is supposedly the same as a book.
Racist videogames
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0x-YNdJ-po
In class we learned about video games used for the military. The games teaches people how to effectively kill and shows the image how exciting the military can be. The game is called Ethnic Cleansing used to recruit people of Aryan descent in the neo nazi regime. This game is made to make people feel comfortable with killing people of different races. The enemies are stereotypically violent. After the player completes the game they have a new found confidence to actually kill other people.

Debunking the enemy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX5oxxv9Q1E&feature=related
During war time people despise the enemy at all cost, based on generalizations. The main focus of this entry is at the beginning of the video. The people who agree with the clerk associate the woman's attire with terrorism. They immediately separate her from being an American, because of her beliefs and clothing. They justify their behavior because of war. If the person looks like the enemy then they are the enemy according to the supporters of clerk. They have a set view of women who wear that type of clothing, and feel the need to distance themselves from them.
