Overt message- The overt message is that oil is used for so many helpful things, and without it and competition we couldn't function. (oil and competition are good)
Covert message- The covert message, I believe is that as American people /america is great and the best country to live in.
It is propoganda because it uses an overty message and a covert message through rhetoric and persuasion to tell the people.

Visual Journal- the key to victory
Propoganda
Overt message-The overt message in this picture is to persuade the people in the united states to eat less bread so that the soldiers can eat during the war.
Covert message-The covert message is to get the American people to support the troops and the war.
The disparity in the two that make it propoganda by getting us to support the war and troopss through the message on the picture.

"The Clampdown" By:The Clash
1.) I believe this song is about rebelling/opposng government and war and how the government is forcing the young people into work for "The Clampdown" or war and government. I know this through the lyrics "no man born with a living soul can be working for the clampdown kick over the wall cause government's to fall"
2.)The musical elements that added to my lyrical interpretation were the tone of the singing and the tone of the guitar that gave that rebelling forceful tone.
3.) This song relates to deception because of how it says "they teachthe twisted speech to the young believers" and decaive them into thinking what they want them to.

J-L Quote propoganda, persuasion, rhetoric, and argument.
The coming age of the mass media, technocracy, and the techniques of mass persuasion have had a
marked impact on the political system. A new politics has emerged that is dominated by imagemakers
and technical experts of all kinds… WILLIAM J. KEEFE,
AmericaThis is a very true quote and I believe many people can agree that politics are now run by the media. Newspapers, t.v., computers, and other media are how candidates tell their vies and have as mostly negative towards the opponent, andhow whats going on is spread to the people. Without these things politics would be nothing at this da and age. Politics wold be completely different. This quote talks about the persuading power of the media and how big of a part it is in politics. it is talking about how the media uses propoganda, persuasion, and rhetoric in politics.Parties, Politics and Public Policy in, 1988.

Brave New World #2
Ther are have been several questions that have come to my mind while reading Brave New World. One of these questions is imilar to what many people are probably asking, and that has to do with running out of soma.
Question # 1.) How would someones feelings toward another change if they ran out of soma?
I hypothesized that if someone were to run out of soma there usually feelingles feelings with little emotin towards other wuld become like that of a normal person in todays societies and perhaps a little stronger because of the lack of it for so long. All that emotion has to be building up inside them, all those real emotions and expressions. Ifound support for this hypothesis on pg. 126 where it says about Lenina toward the white man at the peblo; "Lenina was smiling at him ; such a nice-looking boy, she was thinking, and a really beautiful body." I believe if Lenina was on her Soma she would not think and feel this way about the man.
Question #2.) Could someone from the Onestate survive in the outside world and if so in what conditions would they be living?
One would think that someone from the oestate being so reliant on soma and brainwashed to believe and behave in strict ways and thinking that th Onestate is the way the world was supposed to be that living outside of the Onestate would drive them crazy, they would not know how to survive , or they would become ill from withdraw of all their meicines and behaviors in the onestate. I hypothesized that someone from the onestate that moved out would kind of go crazy and go in a downward piral and not survive or conform an outside society to be like the Onestate. Ifound a possibility of what might happen to a person once from the onestate who moved out in pages 127-131. In these pages about the young man that Lenina and Bernard meet at the pueblo they go int his mother's house and are immediately disgusted at the condition of the house and the women and her hygiene. This is a direct example of what could happen to someone who moved out of the onestate.
Question #3.)This is a question to whch I so far couldn't really find any bit of an answer unless I missed it it, but; Why do the people in the onestate live very healthy lives with almost no impairments and then suddenly die? This came up on page 120 wher Lenina and Bernard see the very old man climbing the ladder at the pueblo, and Bernard says, "youth almost unimpaired till sixty, and then crack! the end." I hypothesize that it was maybe because of so much medication and brainwash but I am still unsure.

Brave new world entry #1
In Brave Ne World they have created conformity by genetically regulating all human embryods before they are born so that they will conform to fit into a cetrtainsocial class that consists of virtually exactly alike people physically and mentally.
They have reduced conflict in regards to religion relationships and individual rights simply by eliminatingthose three things. In "Brave New World" there are no religions, norelationships, and no individual rights therefore there can be no conflict over swomething that doesn't exist.
In "Brave New World" they have forced happiness and conformity through using the drug soma to make the people happy andforget any troubles they are having, also through their hypotizing recordings that they listen to while they sleep is how they force them to be happy and conformed.
I believe that this "Brave New World" society is technically a utopia because all people are happy because they take soma that maks them forget anything that is unhappy. Also there is no conflict because theres nothing to have conflict over and theres plenty of leisure time to make them feel free. So overall I would say A Brave New World" is a utopia but it's alsmost like it's a forced utopia.

Ethnography
The benefits of an emic perspective is that the reader or listener can see what reallt goes on inside the culture and their leaders and what everythimg really means.
An etic perspective can show how something seems to look and be, and shows what everybody else thinks about it.
I believe an emic perspecctive is better because it gives the best perspective by going inside the heads and inside what actually goes on in the culture.
