ASSERTION
Undoubtedly1, the pertinent adapted question “What’s that in your hand2? is not only a cultural cliché, but enunciated testimonies of iconic global citizens who symbolically acting as conduits whereby their expressions become an infectious quality which occupies the annals of history being applied unawares by their diaspora in accordance with their inherited DNA lineage.

PREAMBLE
It is reported ‘The rod3 was one of the ancient elements in the tradition. Here, it is represented as the shepherd’s staff which was naturally in Moses’ hands, and it becomes the medium of the display of the divine power to him
Consequently, it is not denied4 that all the facts which have occurred in the world are bound together by those hidden laws, physical, moral, and spiritual, which constitute the whole moral government of God.

STATEMENT
As an Author and Media Arts Specialist my antenna vibrated at the 355 BC question "What is that in your hand?" as featured in Exodus 4:25 As a consequence, I have decided to focus my lens figuratively, metaphorically, philosophically, and symbolically on how the pertinent adapted question “What’s that in your hand ? ” is not from a film or created from a television series nor television segments but was adapted as a 21st first century question. Of note global citizens intended response of this pertinent adapted question “What’s that in your hand6? is perceived as testimonies enunciated. Undoubtedly, an analysis of the varied responses given by global citizens in this sphere of communication may be perceived as an expression verbalized within a cultural space, simultaneously honoring the lineage of their diaspora within context©2018

Therefore when their diaspora evaluates the enunciated declarations of iconic
global citizens they will discover “What's that in your hand7?” because it becomes infectious. In this environment a similar characteristic seems to be implanted within their DNA, symbolically they are just conduits whereby expressions flow. Therefore “What's that in your hand 8?” is not only perceived as just a symbolic abstract that transcends identities such as race, class and gender but a lived experienced. Cultural theorist Stuart Hall makes the claim that this social construct “Identities can be used as points of identification9” An analysis of Hall’s theory unearths the classifying functions and the importance of the identities, which seems to be part and parcel of the space that global citizens occupy.

ABSTRACT
Traditionally all global citizens use their lens figuratively, metaphorically, philosophically, and symbolically to answer questions and enunciate their testimony. In my analysis, I will attempt to answer the question What’s That In Your hand10 since it is a pertinent adapted question. Moreover, I will also try ascertaining whether the responses can be characterized as an intimate story, a narrative, a conversation, a cultural cliché, cultural expression, or whether this pragmatic question demands a response.
This conversation explores whether this question is on parallel to remaining silent in the face of injustice which is perceived as complicit. In this discourse, it is also presumed that the overarching principle of this conversation is this question since it has become part of global citizens’ life by verbalizing the testimonies of John Sidney McCain III, Mother Teresa, Aretha Franklin, Usain Bolt, Nelson Mandela, Rev. Dr. Martin 10William Anderson Gittens Author Media Arts Specialist c.2018 WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND? DEVGRO MEDIA ARTS SERVICES

Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Trevor John Douglas Millington, Robert Forde, Stewart Russell, and Alan Emtage11 The above mentioned expressions have become part of the popular culture since their testimonies has and will continue to impact millions in various cultural spaces and different dispensations within the world regardless of their identities. I am also cognizant of the fact that the more angles that I employ in the pursuance to answering this question “What’s That In Your Hand? Unquestionably the same should evoke a measure of the intellectual consciousness within the global citizens’ mind. To this end, further evaluation will also determine whether their educational and cultural platform should make it possible for them to answer the question from a personal level even though it is a thought worth exploring. That being highlighted, I have also analyzed this question in context as though is a-likening to a film adaptation12 which is the transfer of a written work, in whole or in
11https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Emtage 12as recorded in the annals of history in 1355 BC
was adapted and use in this conversation can be interpreted as a conversation between the Creator and Moses into 21st century

part, to a feature film. The 355 BC question featured in Exodus 4:213 "What is that in your hand?" was adapted but not from a film neither was it created from a television series or television segments; But, an adapted question being asked in the 21 first century which has values and is a common phrase expression, question, cliché, abstract applied symbolically. This type of derivative work is the common form of film adaptation utilized in Exodus 4:214 as the basis of this featured conversation. However, in this dispensation, the advent and the evolution of technology, the profiling of `people’s identity are associated with human behavior are global citizens. All things being equal, just as a conversation ensued between Moses and the Creator; likewise, a digital conversation / dialogue has just ensued between you and I. What’s that in your hand15 will be interpreted differently justifiably so because global citizens are perceived as complex, sociable, prejudicial, perceptive, and analytical.

Through my lens this question is applied in context to enunciate the testimonies
and feats of some randomly selected global citizens who has iconic status namely John Sidney McCain III, Mother Teresa, Aretha Franklin, Usain Bolt, Nelson Mandela, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Trevor Millington, Robert Forde, Stewart Russell, and Alan Emtage16
answered What’s that in your hand occupies the
figurative, the metaphoric and the symbolic space to help others. Conversely, just as a videographer gives a treatment to their works likewise as an author and Media Arts Practitioner thru my lens I will attempt to give the question a treatment17. The reality is as a cinematographer, videographer my goal is to write a single document that defines the videos concept and summarizes the creating approach to be taken. Usually this can be as short as a single page. The best part of making this treatment is the fact that it formalizes the creative process for me Author and Media Arts Specialist .

In other words I have framed and adapted the question concept and summarized
the same. Hence the same is creating an approach to be taken that establishes a platform whereby the question can be answered figuratively, metaphorically and symbolically thus reminding global citizens that regardless of their identity they should revisit this pragmatic question What18’s that in your hand? In other words the world is bound together19 by those hidden laws, physical, moral, and spiritual, which constitute the whole moral government of God and if global citizens should categorically deny that they do not possess natural abilities furthermore a talent then they cannot convincingly answer the question What20’s that in your hand?

Having gained the support of the elders of the tribes of Israel (Ex 4:29-31), Moses and Aaron arranged to have an audience with the ruling Pharaoh. If our projected dates for Moses are correct, it is now the year 355 BC. Moses was eighty years old and his elder brother Aaron was eighty-three (Ex 7:7). These two elderly men were about to take on the most powerful king in the entire ancient Near East. If our projections are accurate, and the dates Egyptologists have assigned to the Egyptian king list are accurate, the reigning pharaoh would have been Amenhotep III (ruled c. 1390 " c. 1352 BC) who ruled at the height of Egyptian power and influence in the world. There are, however, many other theories supporting other kings of the 18th Dynasty as well as the kings of the 19th Dynasty. During this period c. 135645 BC – Amenhotep IV begins the worship of Aten in Ancient Egypt, changing his name to Akhenaten and moving the capital to Akhetaten, starting the Amarna Period.

c. 1352 BC – Amenhotep III (Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt) dies and is succeeded as Pharaoh by Amenhotep IV. 1350 BC – Yin becomes the new capital of Shang dynasty China. It is reported that the first Phoenix cycle commenced during his reign, B.C. 1986. In his successor, Amenemha III., we may probably trace the MCE RIS of the Greeks, as his praenomen bears some resemblance to that name, and he is by Manetho Mohave built the labyrinth in the Arsinoite Nome (the Faioum) for his tomb, and his name has been discovered on its ruins46. Another great which bears his name is the lake mores in the same nome, the improvement of which, for the purpose of regulating the inundation, was probably work of the Twelfth Dynasty. The Greeks seem, however, to have used the name of Moeris almost, as vaguely as Sesostris. Herodotus assigns a date to Moeris47, nine hundred years before his own time, that is, about 1355 B.C.48 46 Herodotus erroneously assigns it to the twelve kings who reigned before Psammetichus. 47https://books.google.com/books? id=vHABAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA116&lpg=PA116&dq=what+was+happening+1355+BC&source=bl&ots=QhwqH0-7Zv&sig=octJVp5lZAl9Pk4m9WhjLV2PdXo&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUK EwiJ8s_G8KvdAhVLoVMKHYWZBtgQ6AEwDHoECAMQAQ#v=onepage&q=what%20was%20happening%201355%20BC&f=false

According to Dr. Ralph F. Wilson in his titled piece What's in Your Hand? It's a clue to what God might have you do. Dr. Ralph F. Wilson has asserted that Moses49, sweltering in the heat of the Sinai desert, is engaged in a pity party. "I can't do what you want, Lord, because of this excuse and that excuse. People won't accept me. I can't talk good. Let somebody else do it." But arguing with God is never a good idea. You don't win. Even if you say "No" (and God may let you), you lose. When you say "no" or "I can't," you miss out on the great adventure God has for you when you're in the center of His will for your life. But what is that will? In the barren wastes of the Sinai, God asks Moses a simple question: "What's in your hand?" Moses is a shepherd. That's all he's done for 40 years, and he's ready to retire at age 80. "What's in your hand, Moses?" Moses looks at his hand. "A staff," he tells God — as if God didn't know. 49 http://www.joyfulheart.com/maturity/whats-in-your-hand.htm WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

Duh!
The Lord says, "Throw it on the ground." Moses does so, and it becomes a snake. God tells him to pick it up by the tail and it turns back into a staff. Hmmm. Over the next 40 years of Moses' life, God uses that simple wooden stick to deliver the Israelites from Pharaoh, to open the Red Sea, to win a battle with the Amalekites, to bring water from a rock. Who would have thought? As Moses learns to use in faith what God has put in his hand, his life is changed — as well as the course of world history. My question to you is: What has God put in your hand? Do you wonder how God might use you? See what He has given you. God equips people in various ways. I like to have people over to my home, you might say. Another might respond, I'm good with my hands. I can help a group get things done. I like to cook. I have the gift of gab. I like to keep things tidy. And so on. The term "symbolism50" is derived from the word "symbol" which derives 50 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolism_(arts) WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

from the Latin symbolum, a symbol of faith, and symbolus, a sign of recognition, in turn from classical Greek σύµβολον symbolon, an object cut in half constituting a sign of recognition when the carriers were able to reassemble the two halves. In ancient Greece, the symbolon was a shard of pottery which was inscribed and then broken into two pieces which were given to the ambassadors from two allied city states as a record of the alliance. Symbolism was largely a reaction against naturalism and realism, antiidealistic styles which were attempts to represent reality in its gritty particularity, and to elevate the humble and the ordinary over the ideal. Symbolism51 was a reaction in favour of spirituality, the imagination, and dreams52. Some writers, such as Joris-Karl Huysmans, began as naturalists before becoming symbolists; for Huysmans, this change represented his increasing interest in religion and spirituality. Certain of the characteristic subjects of the Decadents represent naturalist 51 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolism_(arts) 52 Balakian, Anna, The Symbolist Movement: a critical appraisal.

interest in sexuality and taboo topics, but in their case this was mixed with Byronic romanticism and the world-weariness characteristic of the fin de siècle period. Symbolists believed that art should represent absolute truths that could only be described indirectly. Dr. Ralph F. Wilson interpretation combined together with theoretical this construct symbolism forms the framework for this conversation in the deconstructing of Moses’ reply as highlighted in Exodus 4:2 And the LORD53 Exodus 4:2 And the LORD54 asked him, "What is that in your hand?" “A staff,” he replied.

Symbolically a gift or vocation according to Mother Teresa56 she found meaning through her vocation and was influenced by many beliefs and teachings of the Church such as, the option for the poor and vulnerable, life and dignity of the human person. The rationale for such a query has to do with the fact that Symbolism and figurative language will provided some depth to this conversation that reliance on straightforward expression allows me to move beyond using my writing style to underscore global citizens’ testimonies. It appears that some folk at some point of their journey may and will experience the crossroad phenomena since this experience is contingent on transition or decision regarding their career.

Soviet missile bases discovered in Cuba triggered a crisis that brought the U.S. to the brink of war with the U.S.S.R60. Civil rights activists won hard-earned victories against segregationists in the American South, and John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth.

When asked by Patricia Smith64 of the Boston Globe how she felt about being called the “Queen of Soul,” Aretha Franklin’s reply was characterized by grace but no false modesty. “It’s an acknowledgment of my art,” she mused. “It means I am excelling at my art and my first love. And I am most appreciative.” Since she burst onto the public consciousness in the late 1960s with a batch of milestone recordings, Franklin has served as a standard against which all subsequent soul divas have been measured.

In appearance Mother Teresa71 was both tiny and energetic. Her face was quite wrinkled, but her dark eyes commanded attention, radiating an energy and intelligence that shone without expressing nervousness or impatience. Conservatives within the Catholic Church sometimes used her as a symbol of traditional religious values that they felt were lacking in their churches. By most accounts she was a saint for the times, and several almost adoring books and articles started to canonize (declare a saint) her in the 1980s and well into the 1990s. She herself tried to deflect all attention away from what she did to either the works of her group or to the God who was her inspiration. 71https://www.encyclopedia.com/people/philosophy-and-religion/roman-catholic-and-orthodox-churches-general-biographies/mother-teresa WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

When McCain arrived in Vietnam88, 385,000 Americans served in Southeast Asia. His squad took part in Operation Rolling Thunder, a brutal bombing campaign that President Lyndon Johnson had started in March 1965. By January 1967, McCain had risen to lieutenant commander. But in July, while preparing for a bombing run, a nearby jet accidentally fired a missile and hit McCain’s fuel tank. The blast triggered a series of explosions, shot shrapnel into his chest and legs, and killed 134 sailors and aviators.
Recovering at home in Florida, McCain89 wondered what to do, telling his classmate Chuck Larson, “I want to be a serious officer, and I’m having problems getting people to take me seriously.” Said Larson, “You’re going back into combat, and you will prove yourself.” McCain joined the Saints, an attack squadron aboard the carrier U.S.S.

We’re probably going to lose someone on this one.” The cocky pilot called back, “You don’t have to worry about me, Lew.” McCain’s90 A-4 And 19 other jets streaked toward Hanoi to destroy a power plant, and the pilots spied the eruption of dust and smoke when surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) took off toward them like “a flying telephone pole moving at great speed.” Black clouds of antiaircraft flak exploded in the air. As McCain neared the power plant, a missile locked on his jet, and his missile-warning gauge emitted a shrill warning. “So, at about 3,500 feet,” he later recalled, “I released my bombs, then pulled back the stick to begin a steep climb to a safer altitude. In the instant before my plane reacted, a SAM blew my right wing off. I was killed.”
Spiraling down at 550 miles an hour, McCain91 radioed, “I’m hit.” As he 90 http://time.com/5377698/john-mccain-prisoner-of-war-vietnam/ 91 http://time.com/5377698/john-mccain-prisoner-of-war-vietnam/ WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND? DEVGRO MEDIA ARTS SERVICES

ejected from the plane, his right knee slammed into something and broke, and the force of shooting from the craft and hitting the air snapped his arms. McCain’s chute opened, and he tumbled, unconscious, toward the earth. He landed in Truc Bach Lake in the center of Hanoi and, weighed down with 50 pounds of gear, quickly sank. Jarred awake, he used his good leg to kick up to the surface but couldn’t understand why his arms would not respond. McCain went down again and, with his teeth, pulled the toggle and inflated his vest. Twenty angry North Vietnamese yanked him ashore, stripped him to his underwear, kicked him and spat on him. Someone smashed his shoulder with a rifle butt, and a bayonet was jabbed into his groin and ankle. Soldiers then heaved his body onto a truck. They brought him to Hoa Lò prison in central Hanoi92 — Hoa Lò translates as “fiery furnace” — and McCain was about to learn of the deadly reputation of the yellow stone, concrete-walled prison complex that Americans nicknamed the Hanoi Hilton. At the Hilton, soldiers dumped McCain’s stretcher on the floor. 92 http://time.com/5377698/john-mccain-prisoner-of-war-vietnam/ WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND? DEVGRO MEDIA ARTS SERVICES

“No American reached Hoa Lò in worse physical condition than McCain,” observed John G. Hubbell in his book P.O.W.: A Definitive History of the American Prisoner-of-War Experience in Vietnam, 1964–1973. Guards gave him minimal food and water. After being bandaged, McCain learned he wouldn’t get medical care unless he talked. For days, the 31-year-old pilot drifted in and out of consciousness. When questioned, he just told his captors his name, rank and serial number. In return, jailers beat him. As blood pooled in McCain’s knee, he begged for care. A medic took his pulse and, shaking his head, said, “It’s too late, it’s too late.” McCain lapsed into unconsciousness, but soon an excited officer rushed in and yelled, “Your father is a big admiral. Now we take you to the hospital.” For the North Vietnamese, Lt. Cmdr. John Sidney McCain III was a royal catch. They called him the Crown Prince, and Radio Hanoi boasted of the capture of “air pirate McCain, son of Admiral McCain.” The aviator was transferred to a medical facility, waking up a few days later “in a filthy room . . . lousy with mosquitoes

and rats.” Rain washed in mud. Medics gave him transfusions and blood but, as McCain recalled, “no treatment for my injuries. No one had even bothered to wash the grime off me.” Two weeks later, a doctor tried to set McCain’s right arm and its three breaks. The man didn’t use anesthesia, and after 90 minutes he gave up and slapped on a neck-to-waist cast. An officer whom McCain remembered as “short and fat, with a strangely wandering right eye that was clouded white by a cataract” then told him that a French correspondent wanted to interview him. When asked about the prison food, McCain told the journalist, “Well, it’s OK, but it’s not Paris.” Guards returned McCain to a roach-filled room, and interrogators beat him. They did operate on his knee, but they simply cut out the ligaments and cartilage and refused to give him more surgery because of his “bad attitude.” By the time the jailers left him in a prison cell, McCain’s cheeks had sunk, his legs had atrophied, his body had shriveled, and his hair had turned white. “I’ve seen some dead that looked at least as good as John,” said Maj.

After nearly a year of imprisonment in Hanoi, McCain 93 was offered release. But he refused to leave his fellow prisoners behind. McCain's subsequent torture and false confession, which provoked him to attempt suicide twice, earned him special respect in the eyes of many Americans. And McCain's survival through years of nearly fatal torture and hardship in the Hanoi prison known as the "Hanoi Hilton" was made more impressive by his refusal to be repatriated before the release of all the American POWs captured before him.

President Donald Trump, whom McCain criticized extensively, has repeatedly disparaged McCain's military service, suggesting at a rally in July 2015 that the senator didn't deserve the title of war hero.
"He was a war hero because he was captured," said Trump, then a Republican presidential candidate. "I like people who weren't captured." But McCain's military service and suffering have made him as something of an anomaly in American political history, and a hero in the eyes of many.

On October 26, 1967, when McCain was a US Navy lieutenant commander,
his Skyhawk dive bomber was shot down over Hanoi. Shattering his leg and both arms during his ejection from the fighter plane, McCain was captured by the North Vietnamese and spent 5 1/2 years as a prisoner of war. Less than a year into McCain's imprisonment, his father was named commander of US forces in the Pacific, and the North Vietnamese saw an opportunity for leverage by offering the younger McCain's release — what would have been both a propaganda victory and a way to demoralize other American POWs. But McCain refused, sticking to the POW code of conduct that says troops must accept release in the order in which they are captured. "I knew that every prisoner the Vietnamese tried to break, those who had arrived before me and those who would come after me, would be taunted with the story of how an admiral's son had gone home early, a lucky beneficiary of America's class-conscious society," McCain later recalled.

The North Vietnamese reacted with fury and escalated McCain's torture. 'Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine.' McCain soon reached what he would later describe as his lowest point in Vietnam, and after surviving intense beatings and two suicide attempts; he signed a "confession" to war crimes written by his captors. "I had learned what we all learned over there: Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine," McCain wrote in a first-person account published in US News & World Report in May 1973. For the next two weeks, McCain was allowed to recover from his debilitating injuries — a period he later described as the worst in his life. "I was ashamed," he wrote in his 1999 memoir, "Faith of My Fathers." "I shook, as if my disgrace were a fever."

As David Foster Wallace wrote in a profile of McCain in 2000, when he was a presidential candidate, the former Navy captain commanded the kind of moral authority and authentic patriotism that eludes the average politician. "Try to imagine that moment between getting offered early release and turning it down," Wallace wrote of McCain's decision to remain in Vietnamese captivity. "Try to imagine it was you. Imagine how loudly you’re most basic, primal self-interest would have cried out to you in that moment, and all the ways you could rationalize accepting the offer. Can you hear it? If so, would you have refused to go?" McCain, a military hawk, forever remained a staunch supporter of the Vietnam War, during which 58,000 Americans and nearly 3 million Vietnamese were killed.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Franklin had children from prior relationships in
addition to the four children they had together. When Aretha was two, the family relocated to Buffalo, New York. By the time Aretha turned five, C. L. Franklin had permanently relocated the family to Detroit, where he took over the pastorship of the New Bethel Baptist Church.102 The Franklins had a troubled marriage due to Mr. Franklin's infidelities, and they separated in 1948103 . At that time, Barbara Franklin returned to Buffalo with Aretha's half brother, Vaughn. 104 After the separation, Aretha recalled seeing her mother in Buffalo during the summer, and Barbara Franklin frequently visited her children in Detroit 105.

It is reported it is evident that from her time growing up in the home of
a prominent African American preacher to the end of her life, Franklin was immersed and involved in the struggle for civil rights and women's rights. She provided money for civil rights groups, at times covering payroll, and performed at benefits and protests. 130When Angela Davis was jailed in 1970, Franklin told Jet, "Angela Davis must go free, ... Black people will be free. I've been locked up (for disturbing the peace in Detroit) and I know you got to disturb the peace when you can't get no peace. Jail is hell to be in. I'm going to see her free if there is any justice in our courts, not because I believe in communism, but because she's a Black woman and she wants freedom for Black people.131 "Her songs "Respect" and "Natural Woman" became anthems of these movements for social change. 132133

Franklin was also a strong supporter for Native American rights. 134She
quietly and without fanfare supported Indigenous Peoples' struggles worldwide, and numerous movements that supported Native American and First Nation cultural rights. 135
Franklin 136 was lauded with an armful of plaques and
certificates. Then came a visit from a King. Martin Luther King Jr. surprised the crowd of 12,000 by coming onstage to present Franklin with a special award from the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. King had laryngitis, so he didn’t speak to the crowd. But it hardly mattered. King’s presentation to Franklin was not only a gesture of mutual admiration, but a strong declaration that the singer was playing a significant role in the shaping of the black identity through her music and her work in the movement. It would be the last time the Queen would see King alive.

Two months later, she repaid the favor of his visit by singing “Precious
Lord” at a memorial service for him.“She took great pride in black people. She was our soul sister,” said longtime friend, journalist and neighbor Greg Dunmore. “She would wear the African clothing and her hair in an afro (as she did at concerts and for a Jet magazine photo shoot in 1972). One of her signature songs, “Respect,” became an anthem for the civil rights movement. It symbolized her passion and understanding of activism,” Dunmore said. Through her upbringing in the church and her music, Franklin, who died Thursday, Aug. 16 at the age of 76, emerged in the 1960s as a symbol of black America, reflecting an extreme sense of confidence and pride. And with that came a voluntary role in the civil rights movement led by King. Ernie Suggs and Shelia M.

But Aretha always answered the call. Her response was always right on time. She was always available,” Clayton said.

Baez raised more than $250,000 for King and the SCLC with a seven-city concert series 138.” “She along with Harry Belafonte were probably the most consistent and helpful people from show business,” Young said. “They knew that we needed their help.” In August 1967, Xernona Clayton had a problem. The SCLC was set to hold its 10th anniversary convention at the sparkling new Atlanta Hyatt Regency, and Franklin was booked as the headline entertainment. “She was kind of depressed at the time, but Martin said come on down and sing until you feel better,” Young said. But it was more than that. Franklin139 had been banned from the hotel just a week earlier after she and her ex-husband Ted White got into a brawl. “She was small at the time, so I had to pad her and slip her into the hotel,” Clayton said. “I camouflaged her.

freedom, you go where the need is. She knew that her presence would make a difference. In her heart, she said, ‘I gotta be there.’” Young said Franklin sang for two hours. So long that, “Sidney Poitier, the main speaker, didn’t get up until a quarter to midnight. But nobody cared because she sounded so good.” Civil rights veteran Bernard LaFayette said Franklin’s contribution to the movement cannot be overstated. “She brought the message through music,” said LaFayette, chairman of the board of the SCLC and head of the Emory University Center for Advancing Nonviolence 140. “The unique thing about that period is that music was intergenerational. She appealed to younger and older people. The music played a very important role in unifying people and building the kind of coalition that was needed,” LaFayette said. He remembers attending a Franklin concert. “People would come regardless of religion or ethnicity or race,” he said. “Her concerts broke barriers 140https://www.ajc.com/ WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

because music is the language of the soul. She was very clear and unequivocal in her support of the movement for social change.” In 1970, when political activist Angela Davis was arrested and charged with murder after guns used in a botched attempt to free an imprisoned black revolutionary were alleged to be hers, Franklin defiantly vowed to post bail. “I’m going to see her free if there is any justice in our courts, not because I believe in communism, but because she’s a black woman and she wants freedom for black people. I have the money; I got it from black people — they’ve made me financially able to have it — and I want to use it in ways that will help our people.” “As soon as the campaign for bail was created, Aretha came forward and said if bail was set she would pay whatever amount was needed, whether $100,000 or $200,000 — which was a lot of money at the time,” Davis told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Ernie Suggs and Shelia M. Poole asserted that Although Davis141 wasn’t eligible for bail at the time, Davis said she never forgot it. “I thanked her publicly 141https://www.ajc.com/ WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

for it many times, but can’t remember if we actually spoke to each other,” said Davis, who was later acquitted. “Aretha's music speaks for itself — “Respect,” “Natural Woman” — all of these are anthems for the movement. She did not have to do anything besides her music to raise people’s consciousness. That is her most important contribution.” R-E-S-P-E-C-T 142 Young said the only thing that really slowed Franklin down was her legendary fear of flying. “But it was sort of like with these celebrity friends, they respond when you call, and you respond when they can.” In later years, she was invited twice to perform at birthday celebrations for the Rev. Joseph Lowery that raised funds for the Lowery Institute. One celebration was held at Morehouse College, and Franklin143 performed several gospel songs with the Morehouse and Spelman College glee clubs.

In one YouTube video, the civil rights leader can be heard asking Franklin
to sing “Respect.“She would come and help attract crowds and raise funds for the movement, and she was very good at that,” said Lowery. “If we put the word out that she was going to be present, it became a very attractive word and it helped swell the crowd. She was a blessing.” She sang at the funeral of Rosa Parks.

In scene three let us examine and verbalize Nelson Mandela was a man who was widely known throughout the world. This man is considered a hero of South Africa and is a man who is also considered to be a man who helped change the world for the better. Life was difficult in the city of Mvezo, Transkei and on July 18, 1918 a hero was born. Nelson Mandela’s original name was Rolihlahla Mandela and he was born into the Madiba clan. All of Mandela’s family before him had never gone to school or received a proper education.
Nelson Mandela was born in the city Mvezo, Transkei, in South Africa, on July 18, 1918. His parents names were Noqaphi Nosekeni and Mphakanyiswa Gadla Mandela. His full name is Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela. His father was a village chief.

This showed how early in life Mandela began to fight for people’s rights and it was incredible to learn that this little incident would not let him receive his degree which he worked so diligently for. Mandela returned home to his surrogate family in 1940 and found out that his guardian had arranged a marriage for him. This greatly upset Mandela because he wanted to live a free life on his own terms, so he left his family and headed for Johannesburg and arrived in the beginning of 1941. He received his first job as watchman for a mine but was fired soon after because someone had found out he was a runaway, and that was considered unforgivable at the time. He stayed with a family member for the time being and was introduced to an activist who

gave him a job at a law firm. The man who ran the law firm was actually a Jewish Communist and the first white person Mandela had ever befriended. Mandela soon began to attend different seminars and talks from communists.He was arrested and imprisoned in 1962, and subsequently sentenced to life imprisonment for conspiring to overthrow the state following the Rivonia Trial. Mandela served 27 years in prison, split between Robben Island, Pollsmoor Prison, and Victor Verster Prison.
Nelson Mandela149 became a world leader and changed history forever. He had a lot of quotes. One that I thought was interesting was, “Education is one of the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” (Brainyquote. Xplore, n.d. web. 07 Dec. 2013) He used his education to try and bring peace back to his country. He did this by becoming a leader. He became a leader by putting an end to Apartheid. This is racial segregation.

The African Nationwide Congress which was South Africa’s national liberation movement. But unlike other activists instead of enduring violence as a mean of unity he chose a different route. For this exact cause, Nelson Mandela was highly regarded and a figure for the South African people. Brian Walden had this to say “In the revolution led by Mandela to transform a model of racial division and oppression into an open democracy, he demonstrated that he didn't flinch from taking up arms, but his real qualities came to the fore after his time as an activist” (Brink, 1998). Mandela wasn’t the type to person to kill or hurt anyone, he believed strictly peaceful protest, he used wisdom and bravery to explain his problem.The moment the ANC was ostracised then

opened around the world. All that which is apparent in the book "Mother Teresa, A Complete Authorized Biography" by author, Kathryn Spink. Mother Teresa made a huge impact on the world we live in. In the 1950s, she began helping those with leprosy. The Indian government gave the Missionaries of Charity a 34-acre plot of land near the city of Asansol. Under Mother Teresa's guidance, a leper colony was established , called Shanti Nagar (Town of Peace).For her work among the people of India, the Indian government gave her the Padmashree ("Magnificent Lotus") Award in September of 1962.

In 1948 Pope Pius XII gave Mother Teresa permission to be a totally
independent nun, so she became an Indian citizen. After studying about nursing, she founded the "Missionaries of Charity156." This was a group of nuns who go around and help the sick and dying. All the nuns that agreed to work in the "Missionaries of Charity" had to devote their lives to helping the poor and not to receive any money or material things. To the side is a picture of a letter that Mother Teresa sent to a nun that wanted to join the "Missionaries of Charity." Mother Teresa157 welcomed her into the group with praise.In "Mother Teresa : In My Own Words" by Mother Teresa herself. She writes about when her story started . At first, Mother Teresa was assigned to teach a small Geography class at St. Mary's High School in Calcutta. Mother Teresa noticed all the beggars, lepers, and homeless people on the streets of Calcutta. There lives were horrible, living on other peoples scraps and letting babies that they couldn't support die in trash bins. She decided to ask the archbishop if

she could stop her teaching and dedicate her life to helping the "less fortunate." When Mother Teresa received a written consent that it was okay, she began her work. People made a movie about Mother Teresa's life and everything she did with her fellow nuns. The movie did a very good job of showing how much Mother Teresa cared for the sick. The main part of the movie was when Mother Teresa and her nuns were starting a whole new center to the sick and dying. When the person that owned the building was telling the nuns and Mother Teresa about all the nice things they has in the building, the nuns almost simultaneously said, "I don't think we will be needing that." The nuns and Mother Teresa live in such low living conditions and don't seem to mind. Unlike most of us, she doesn't need material things to get along. All she needs is some running water and the necessary materials to help the sick. There are also some kinds of summer groups like Habitat for Humanity which was inspired by Mother Teresa herself. Unlike Habitat for Humanity these groups of kids go out and help the sick and dying just like Mother Teresa. The leader of these groups is a well known priest by the name of Johann Christoph. These kids love to do what

Mother Teresa does best and make many dying people happy in there last days of life. The School that did this was the "Wake Forest University." Or as they prefer to be called the "City of Joy Scholars." The kids spent 18 long days in Calcutta as Mother Teresa's first help center. The kids remember the varied cultures and races that Mother Teresa and the nuns love so very much. No matter how sick they looked. The kids were forever changed mentally and emotionally after seeing and helping the helpless. The Missionaries of Charity and Mother Teresa were probably the most caring people on Earth. She spent her whole life teaching, helping and lending her hand out to those who needed it. Mother Teresa truly did disturb the universe in more ways than 1 or even 100, as you can see in the research paper and everyday life, the news, news papers and encyclopedias. She put all her faith in God and helped in every way possible and she died doing that and never gave up and that's what made her a great person everyone wanted to interview. She served as a great role model. She deserved all those awards that she received and I can't think of anyone else who deserved them more than her. She was truly an angel.

similar to the Olympics. There were a total of 3,000 athletes from 79 different countries who participated in the 182 events. At the end of the first games the Soviet Union had won the most medals with a total of 241 and the United States had the second most with 142. The Goodwill Games continued every 4 years until 2001 when they were ended.
Of note Usain Bolt159 was born August 21, 1986. In this scene five let us examine and verbalize “We have a lot of youngsters coming through and they just need to believe they can do it and use what Bolt160 has done as initiative to achieve their dreams. As a country we can stay on the map. It will be a lot of work, but there are definitely more kids coming through.” Calabar, an all-boys’ secondary school just north of central Kingston, is one of Jamaican athletics’ traditional powerhouses. Its 27 Champs titles put the school behind

only Kingston College in the overall standings, with Jamaica College forming the final cog in the habitual three-way battle for glory. But Bolt did not come from one of the capital’s big sporting establishments, instead opting to remain in the remote north of the country and emerge from William Knibb High School.
It is a route that Clarke says is becoming increasingly common.

in Kingston, Bolt knew just three competitions remain before he retires and the Caribbean island that he has put on the map is bereft.
What on earth is the country going to do without him? “Jamaican athletics is in a good position,” Yanik Morrison, Calabar assistant coach, tells The Sunday Telegraph. “Usain Bolt is someone who has done so much for the country, so much for the sport, and so much for Jamaican athletes, that they now believe they can achieve what they want. He has set the trend and most athletes want to be like him – most of those here want to take it professional.
The story has entered the realms of legend, becoming one of athletics' origin myths. A gangly sprinter from humble beginnings bursts onto the scene in Beijing, demolishing three world records as athletics crowns a new king. Armed with the perfect concoction of attributes – speed, swagger and an unavoidably-excellent surname – Usain Bolt has ruled the sport ever since.

But as his tale enters its final chapter at the World Athletics Championships in London, little is still known about the mentality behind his ruthless win streak. Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps and Serena Williams are some of the great names who have dominated their sport with unerring intensity. But Bolt, by contrast, is in his element clowning around on the startline. How has the sport’s jester held the mental edge for nine years in events that last a few fleeting seconds? How can he stay so calm when his legacy is one mistake from unravelling? What is unique about the mindset which has spurred him onto unimaginable heights? And how on earth can athletics prosper once the curtain falls on Bolt’s career?
"It is only when the starter says ‘on your marks’ that I focus in on the race," Bolt exclusively tells Eurosport, as he takes us inside the mind of a sporting great. At 21:45pm on Saturday August 5, the starter will utter those words to the Jamaican one

final time. The 30-year-old will pause his theatrics, lock into race mode and – almost certainly – claim victory in the last race of his incredible career.
But the origin myth is just that. In reality, Bolt's Olympic record is not the gleaming list of perfection – nine events, nine triumphs – it is always depicted as. There was one race which blotted the copybook, and it came right at the start of a journey which would transform athletics and sport forever.When I say I’ve beaten Bolt, the response is always the same: 'No way! You’re kidding!' I have to show the videos, because nobody believes me… August 24, 2004. Athens is staging the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad162, with heat four of the men’s 200m featuring a rising star. The camera is fixated on lane five as world junior champion Bolt, three days after his 18th birthday, gestures to someone in the crowd just moments before "on your marks" is uttered. Around him, his competitors puff out their cheeks in full-on intimidation mode.

Barely 60 seconds later, the Jamaican is out after finishing fifth. Little-known
Polish athlete Marcin Jedrusinski, then 22, is acknowledging the crowd after taking victory. Jedrusinski would later bow out at the semi-final stage and retire with just a solitary European silver medal to show for his labours. But as another career drifts into the twilight zone, he can now brag about his unique claim to fame – he was the man who triumphed in Bolt’s sole Olympic failure. "At that time, I didn’t think I had beaten someone big," Jedrusinski relives to Eurosport Poland. "Usain was a sprinter who had already run under 20 seconds, but he was not yet world class and to be honest, I was keeping an eye on the other sprinters. I beat Usain and got back to the daily routine. Only later did it turn out that the world had never had somebody like him. It turned out I had beaten the legend." Jedrusinski finished his career with modest personal bests of 10.26s (100m) and 20.31s (200m), with his gangly 6'2" frame prompting calls that his future lay outside sprinting – preconceptions Bolt demolished when he finally burst onto the mainstream four years later in Beijing.

"When I saw him, it reminded me of how others treated me when I was a
youngster," Jedrusinski adds. "People used to tell me, 'you’re too tall, stop wasting your time and focus on a different sport'. But I thought 'he’s taller than me and runs under 20 seconds. Why can’t I?' Usain looks like a genuine sprinter now, but in 2004 he was like a walking pole: tall and very thin. In my day, we had Shawn Crawford and Maurice Greene. They were not so tall, but were muscular. Then suddenly we got somebody like Usain who denied all of that." However Jedrusinski, now back in the army, insists that taking the scalp of the greatest sprinter in history is not the highlight of his career. "Even after all these years, I don’t find beating Bolt163 my biggest success," he adds. "It was not the fastest run of my life and I didn’t win a medal in Athens. It’s simply a funny story. It was my best Olympics, but not because of beating Bolt. But I have downloaded the videos to show my kids in the future..."

Even the greatest need help. Bolt’s absence of invincibility was short-lived, with
coach Glen Mills taking him under his wing at the end of 2004. Mills completely revamped his technique and instilled a firm work ethic – the transformation was total.When Bolt thumped his chest in triumph and eased to a jog even as he was approaching the finish of the 100m final in Beijing, not only was he making a mockery of the Olympics’ flagship event, he was also ripping up the sprint manual forever. Such was his impact that day, athletics has marched to his beat ever since. It was the first time in history that a 100m sprinter had shown such disdain for sprinting the full 100m and still obliterated the world record. The combined winning margins from Atlanta 1996 to Athens 2004 sat at 0.18 seconds; Bolt's 9.69 in 2008 put him 0.2 seconds clear of his closest rival. All on a nutritious diet of chicken nuggets. ‘Anything can happen’ was a phrase now redundant in men’s sprinting, all because of Bolt’s extraordinary runturned-victory-jog. And boy did athletics need it. Fresh from the debacle in Athens, which saw proposed Olympic flame lighter Konstantinos Kenteris' missed doping test on the eve

of the Opening Ceremony set the tone for a drug-ravaged Games, the sport needed rescuing – and it would be, by the most eccentric of characters. For five years, Bolt's dominance was such that he could afford his pre-race theatrics, with only a solitary DQ in the 100m final at the World Championships in Daegu, 2011, blighting his clean sweep in major championships. Nobody could get near him – and it defied all logic. Sprinters were supposed to conform to a stereotype: muscular, explosive and not far north of six foot. The start was where the race was won and lost, so what hope did Bolt have of harnessing his surname and blasting from the blocks with his 6'5" frame acting as a giant parachute? Nothing could stop him in those early years as he set about redefining a sport. But as Bolt’s youth slipped away, so did his frightening advantage. By the time the 2015 World Championships164 arrived, dissenting voices had emerged – so too had a clear rival to the sport's golden boy: the reviled double drug cheat Justin Gatlin. For the first time in his career, Bolt was under fire from inside and outside his sport. A race which

took on a moral dimension – almost becoming a parable of good versus evil – had everything riding on it, and Gatlin was in imperious form, unbeaten in 29 races. Not that you could tell. With his legacy one defeat from crumbling, Bolt arrived for the 100m final with his typical swagger and looked completely relaxed as the athletes were introduced to the crowd. It wasn’t his raw pace that won the final, but his mental hold on his rivals as Gatlin – an Olympic gold medallist – forgot how to run in the final 15m. This was no fluke. This was the Bolt effect. Thinking you can beat him, and actually beating him, are two very different beasts. It is a tension that his rivals have never been able to resolve, a constant thread running through his career. No one had ever seen anything like it. In WWE, perhaps, but certainly not in athletics.

This excerpt of Usain 165 Bolt 166 journey When Bolt lined up for the 100m in
Beijing in 2008 his rivals were taken aback, as were fans around the world. It was striking, almost shocking in a wonderful way. His fellow sprinters were focused, stern and unflinching while Bolt preened like a peacock; he effectively roared ‘Look! I've arrived! This is how we do things now’. No athlete had ever celebrated victory prior to a race so convincingly before; no one had dared to make the 100m a one-man party, only interrupted very fleetingly by the main event. The race itself was only a very small part of a wider celebration, not only of talent, but of personality verbalized his Legacy because it was his defining moment in history.

When it came to the competition in China he was simply unstoppable, setting a world record in the 100m of 9.69sec before breaking Michael Johnson's world record of 19.32 to win the 200m. Bolt and Jamaica threw in a world record in the 4x100m relay for good measure. Berlin record-breaker At the Berlin World Championships in 2009, Bolt defied logic by improving upon his astounding performance in Beijing the previous year, bettering his world records in both the 100m and 200m. He sliced more than a tenth of a second his previous world best, scorching across the line in 9.58sec to take gold.
Four days later he followed it up with a scintillating display in the 200m, clocking 19.19sec. Both records have remained intact in the seven years since. Double-treble Bolt arrived in London chasing an improbable 'double-treble', aiming to successfully defend all three of his Olympic titles won in Beijing. The first leg was achieved with victory in the 100m, where he and training partner Yohan Blake finished well clear of a field containing Justin Gatlin and Tyson Gay. Bolt's time of 9.63sec remains the fastest ever run at an Olympics. The 200m saw a Jamaican clean sweep of the podium, with Bolt winning in 19.32sec ahead of Blake and Warren Weir. The treble was duly completed in the 4x100m relay in a world record 36.84sec. Gatlin thriller Bolt headed to the Beijing World Championships in August 2015 with signs that his crown might be slipping. Injuries had appeared to have left him looking vulnerable for the first time in seven years, and long-time rival Gatlin was the man in form with the season's fastest time. For many, the thought of Gatlin, twice convicted of doping offences, unseating Bolt was an uncomfortable proposition. World athletics chief Sebastian Coe said the prospect made him "queasy." Yet when he needed it most, Bolt was able to find an extra gear, winning in 9.79sec ahead of Gatlin, second in 9.80sec. Rio romp Despite a patchy season hampered by injuries to his troublesome left hamstring, Bolt was able to draw on his phenomenal ability to raise himself for the big occasion in Rio. With the crowd roaring his every move - and booing his rival Gatlin - the champion stormed over in 9.81 to become the first man to win three consecutive 100m titles. WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

His big success lead to him being admired throughout the country so much that one of India’s most well-known writers gave Gandhi the title Mahatma (“Great Soul”). Also Read: Why You Need To Man Up and Chase Your Dreams Mahatma Gandhi became a leader of the Indian community and over the years developed a political movement based on the methods of non-violent civil disobedience, which he called “satyagraha”. He dressed simply, in a loin cloth and shawl, and he didn’t have any other material possessions.

To those who don’t know India was a British Colony.
During the years Gandhi would be imprisoned many times, but that didn’t stop him but what Gandhi managed to do was that he developed satyagraha into a national movement, stressing passive resistance, nonviolent disobedience, boycotts and, on occasion, hunger strikes. He became so well-known and respected, that he gained influence with both the British ruler and the general public.
Mahatma Gandhi170 believed in the unity of all mankind under one god. As a youth, he was neither a genius nor a child prodigy and actually he suffered from extreme shyness. However, he approached life with making small steps towards his goals, which he pursued relentlessly. By the time he died, India had become an independent country, free of British rule and actually India became the largest democracy in the world. Today, Gandhi is remembered not only as a political leader, but also as a moralist who appealed to the universal conscience of mankind.

Now more than everything else what Mahatma Gandhi proved was that ONE MAN can change the world, he managed to take down an empire without using any violence. And his example was later followed by other peaceful resisters such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Dalai Lama. He freed India from the British Empire, without using any violence and advocated that others do the same, and who could believe that such a skinny and shy man could do it, but he is another proof of what we as humans can achieve, and if Mahatma Gandhi could do it, why do you think you can’t?

Martin Luther King's Vision
Martin Luther King had a vision of a society in which race was not an issue in how people were treated or in how they were allowed to live their lives. It’s a sad fact of today’s society that King’s vision is not a reality in America, or anywhere else in the world; but it is possible to say that his vision affected us. While nothing is perfect or complete in the battle for civil rights, the efforts of King and those like him have, in fact, changed the country and the world, for the better, in noticeable ways. His vision has made the world a more equal place, if not an equal one, and it has helped to ensure that minorities have a voice. Martin Luther King and Civil Rights Martin Luther King had a major impact on civil rights174. King played a part in many well-known civil rights movements in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1955, he became heavily involved in the Montgomery, Alabama boycott of the city buses, which was spurred by the bus company’s insistence that African Americans only ride in the back seats. King’s support drew much attention to the cause and rallied 174http://biography.yourdictionary.com/articles/martin-luther-kings-vision-change-world.html WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

many supporters even outside of the Montgomery area, which put pressure on bus companies all over the South to examine their own rules, and eventually, to change them. King’s prominence in the civil rights movement gained the respect of many political leaders, and gave him the potential power to enact major change. Vision of Non-Violent Protest The bus boycott was just one example of many situations where, under King’s influence, the civil rights movement gained attention and respect. A key part of King’s vision, aside from a quest for racial equality, was the idea of nonviolence; he refused to use violent actions in any of his protests, and taught his followers to do the same. Based on the principles of Gandhi, this factor of King’s beliefs and behavior was a major influence on society at the time. Police forces didn’t hesitate to use violence against demonstrators and protesters, but in the face of their quiet civil resistance, the overblown physical techniques of force and brutality lost their power.

Martin Luther King was greatly responsible for the passing of the Civil Rights
Act and the Voting Rights Act for African Americans, both in the mid 1960s. Both of these acts literally changed American law so that African Americans could not be treated separately from whites. His victories in these two areas had a major impact on the United States and the world. Martin Luther King175 did not make overt efforts to fight international civil rights inequalities; however, his U.S. civil rights victories and speeches were inspiration for those who were involved in international racial injustice. By 1964 the United Nations' membership had doubled from its 1945 levels. Almost 75% of these new members were from developing countries who were committed to combating racial injustice based on the struggles of Martin Luther King in the U.S. and the racial persecution in South Africa.

King was assassinated in 1968. With his death, the country lost not only a great
leader, but a prominent person who had carried the power to change society for the better. The loss of King was a loss for people of all races. This excerpt of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King177
Jr.’s journey was greatly
responsible for the passing of the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act for African Americans, both in the mid 1960s. Both of these acts literally changed American law so that African Americans could not be treated separately from whites. His victories in these two areas had a major impact on the United States and the world. At this juncture I must confessed it was Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s defining moment in history because Dr. King enunciated his testimony by answering the pertinent question What s That In Your Hand. He was just a conduit whereby the characteristic humanity flowed.

The question’s been posed So I will respond Though I’m really a tiny fish In this very large pond.
What’s that in my hand? It’s a talent or two: “The propensity for doing good” That’s the biblical view.
It shows up in a tendency Or perhaps an indication, Often it may even relate as in my case To one’s life vocation.

A knack for teaching Is certainly mine And as a matter of fact I think That embraces all I’ve been assigned.
Within the teacher’s scope I played a number of roles Of course one impacted the mind, The other the soul.
First up as my career suggests I am a teacher But equally as important I am also a preacher.

Yes the shaping of minds And the impacting of souls Hence teaching and preaching; These are certainly my roles.
From a very young age I was thus inclined As I flogged that old chair In the room where we dined.
Not yet ten years then How was I to know That this was to be my vocation From the seeds being sowed?

For the strap was plenteous In those early days And I guess I was just mimicking My teachers’ ways.
Maybe I was displacing aggression For the floggings I received And beating that old chair Was teaching then as I had believed.
However I came a long way From that misguided thought And to be the best teacher

Was what I diligently sought.
For forty long years I was feverishly driven In pursuit of that objective Using the talents I was given.
Many a life I have touched With the help of my heavenly Father, Mistakes I made as I went along But that’s another matter.
So very often as I move around And I see the ones I taught I am made humble by the compliments

And the satisfaction teaching brought.
As I indicated in this poem before Other talents have emerged, At first they were quite recessive But at the right time they surged.
Poetry is one that comes to mind You’ll find many poems on my blog, I’ve been able to touch the world That’s far more than my teaching job.

CHAPTER 13 SUGGESTIONS
According to writer, art director, and herbalist-in-training Catherine Winter A lot of people are disheartened by the current state of the world. Seems like everywhere we turn, we’re overwhelmed by the immense amount of strife and suffering going on around us. This can lead to some pretty intense despondency when we contemplate just how big the mess is, and how little we can personally do to change it all. Well, do you remember the saying, “think globally: act locally”? We can create an even tighter focus than that, and edge more toward: “Be the change you want to see in the world.”You and I might not be omnipotent beings who can change the entire world for the better just by snapping our fingers, but we can make great changes within ourselves.183

Likewise What’s That In Your hand188 is conversation between you the reader and myself the author. In this setting What’s That In Your hand189 is more than a cliche, it is more than a cultural expression it is a pragmatic question; However, the response was dependent on an individual educational cultural orientation since such can only be answered from a personal level and it is a thought worth exploring. 187William Anderson Gittens Author Media Arts Specialist c.2018 188William Anderson Gittens Author Media Arts Specialist c.2018 189William Anderson Gittens Author Media Arts Specialist c.2018 WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

The same was categorized as an abstract yet at the same time a symbolic cultural cliche. What’s That In Your hand190 was adapted from 1355 BC in the scriptural text Exodus 4:2 "What is that in your hand?" “A staff,” Moses replied can be interpreted as a conversation between the Creator and Creator into 21st century .

Therefore all things being equal just a conversation ensued between Moses and the Creator likewise a conversation /dialogue has just ensued between you and I through this medium regarding pertinent pragmatic question What’s That In Your hand191 which was constructed framed since the answer or dialogue can only answered from a personal level.

However, symbolically I am only giving this expression phrase cliche information a treatment. As a Media Arts Practitioner in the realm of videography it is normal to give your production a video treatment which is your best effort in defining your project, presenting a clear synopsis of your story, developing your production and organizing its purpose.

And she wasn’t just the mother of all black female singers: Christina Aguilera, Adele and Ariana Grande are all part of the Aretha lineage. Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” is Aretha all over, so much that Franklin herself covered it on 2014’s “Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics.” With her church-bred voice, the “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” singer brought gospel-style melisma to the pop world.

The Post talks to Aretha Franklin But there are many more reasons why Franklin is regarded by many as the greatest singer who ever lived. (She was voted such by a Rolling Stone panel in 2010.) While everything about her voice is soul personified, she was not just an R&B singer. She could do gospel, jazz, pop, disco, even classical. In one of her most stunning performances, she filled in for an ailing Luciano Pavarotti at the 1998 Grammys on the Puccini aria “Nessun dorma” (from the opera “Turandot”).

If you could hold your own with her, you could hold your own with anybody.But as brilliant a singer as Franklin was, she was also a splendid songwriter, penning golden-era gems like “Rock Steady,” “Day Dreaming,” “Call Me,” “Dr. Feelgood” and “Think.” That last one, which she famously wailed in the 1980 movie “The Blues Brothers,” established Franklin as a feminist force along with her signature anthem, “Respect.”In addition, she was an inspirational figure of black pride, with albums like 1972’s classic “Young, Gifted and Black” and her performances during the civil rights movement. She even sang199 at the funeral of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968. 199https://nypost.com/2018/08/16/how-aretha-franklin-changed-music-forever/ WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND? DEVGRO MEDIA ARTS SERVICES

Aretha used her gifts to make a difference as well as to make art.It’s no wonder that she was the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987. With or without the title Queen of Soul, she was true music royalty — the likes of which we’ll never see again. McCain200 changed our view of torture Beaten and badly abused during his 5½ years in captivity in Vietnam, no U.S. official spoke with such intimate familiarity and righteous anger when the CIA began using "enhanced interrogation techniques" against jihadists in the wake of 9/11. McCain's opposition helped stop practices such as waterboarding. "The use of torture compromises that which most distinguishes us from our enemies, our belief that all people, even captured enemies, possess basic human rights," he said. Their actions has affirmed and created a space whereby the remainder of global citizens can and maybe the individual’s conduct may create a renewed focus by looking within themselves to ascertain what’s that in their hands.

Franklin, Usain Bolt, Nelson Mandela, Rev.

The answer and the response may create that consciousness in motivating us into utilizing our gifts, talents, skills, positions, and or status to assist some more global citizens who occupy the same space as us and beyond. To a large extent What’s That In Your Hand is just a thought worth exploring because this is ad nauseam cliche question pervades every dispensation and symbolizes John Sidney McCain III as Patriot , Mother Teresa as Humanitarian, Aretha Franklin as 'The Queen of Soul”, Usain Bolt as unbelievable, Nelson Mandela as Enigma, Rev. Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. as an Advocate, and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi as a Great Soul. The information gathered helps to frame this question since it became part of the global citizens’ life.
Therefore there is justification in highlighting the same as part of the popular culture since the enunciated testimonies of John Sidney McCain III, Mother Teresa, Aretha

Personal Interview Poem What’s That in Your Hand?. September 24th, 2018 McCain votes no on repealing Obamacare by giving a thumbs down. McCain returned to the Senate on July 25, less than two weeks after brain surgery. He cast a deciding vote allowing the Senate to begin consideration of bills to replace Obamacare. Along with that vote, he delivered a speech criticizing the party-line voting process used by the Republicans, as well as by the Democrats in passing Obamacare to begin with, and McCain also urged a "return to regular order" utilizing the usual committee hearings and deliberations.[362][363][364] On July 28, he cast the decisive vote against the Republicans' final proposal that month, the so-called "skinny repeal" option, which failed 49–51.[365] McCain did not vote in the Senate after December 2017, remaining instead in Arizona to undergo cancer treatment. On April 15, 2018, he underwent surgery for an infection relating to diverticulitis and the following day was reported to be in stable condition.[366] Committee assignments U.S. Secretary of Defense Ash Carter and Senators Joni Ernst, Daniel Sullivan, John McCain, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, and Cory Gardner attending the 2016 International Institute for Strategic Studies Asia Security Summit in Singapore Committee on Armed Services (Chair) as chair of the full committee may serve as an ex-officio member of any subcommittee Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Subcommittee on Financial and Contracting Oversight Committee on Indian Affairs Committee on Intelligence (ex-officio) Caucus memberships International Conservation Caucus Senate Diabetes Caucus

Death and funeral McCain's family announced on August 24, 2018, that he would no longer receive treatment for his cancer.[369] He died the next day, August 25, at 4:28 p.m. MST (11:28 p.m. UTC), with his wife and family beside him, at his home in Cornville, Arizona, aged 81.[370][371] McCain lay in state in the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix on August 29 (McCain's birthday), followed by a service at North Phoenix Baptist Church on August 30. His body travelled to Washington to lie in state in the rotunda of the United States Capitol on August 31, before a service at the Washington National Cathedral on September 1. He was a "lifelong Episcopalian" who attended, but did not join, a Southern Baptist church for at least 17 years; memorial services were scheduled in both denominations.[372][373] He will be buried at the United States Naval Academy Cemetery, next to his Naval Academy classmate and lifelong friend Admiral Charles R. Larson.[374] Prior to his death, McCain requested that former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama deliver eulogies at his funeral, and asked that both President Donald Trump and former Alaska Governor and 2008 vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin not attend any of the services.[375][376] McCain himself planned the funeral arrangements and selected his pallbearers for the service in Washington, including former Vice President Joe Biden, former Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold, former Secretary of Defense William Cohen, actor Warren Beatty, and Russian dissident Vladimir Vladimirovich Kara-Murza.[377] Arizona Governor Doug Ducey has the authority to appoint McCain's interim replacement until a special election is held in 2020 to determine who will serve the remainder of McCain's term, which ends in January 2023.[378] Under Arizona law, the appointed replacement must be of the same party as McCain, a Republican.[379] Newspaper speculation about potential appointees has included McCain's widow Cindy, former Senator Jon Kyl, and former Representatives Matt Salmon and John Shadegg.[380][381] Ducey has said he will make no appointment until after the final funeral and burial.[382] Tributes McCain received many tributes and condolences, including from Congressional colleagues, all living former Presidents – Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama – and former Vice President Joe Biden, as well as Vice President Mike Pence.[383][384][385] French President Emmanuel Macron, Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, who had just taken office the previous day, and former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, British Prime Minister Theresa May and former Prime Minister David Cameron, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and former Prime Minister Stephen Harper, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and foreign minister Heiko Maas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Afghanistan chief executive Abdullah Abdullah, Pakistani foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, and former Vietnamese ambassador to Washington Nguyễn Quốc Cường also sent condolences.[386][387][388][389][390] Colonel Trần Trọng Duyệt, who ran the Hỏa Lò Prison when McCain was held there, remarked, "At that time I liked him personally for his toughness and strong stance. Later on, when he became a US Senator, he and Senator John Kerry greatly contributed to promote [Vietnam]-US relations so I was very fond of him. When I learnt about his death early this morning, I feel very sad. I would like to send condolences to his family."[391] In a TV interview, Senator Lindsey Graham said McCain's last words to him were "I love you, I have not been cheated."[392] His daughter, Meghan McCain, shared her grief, stating that she was present at the moment he died.[393] Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) announced that he would introduce a resolution to rename the Russell Senate Office Building after McCain.[394] A quarter peal of Grandsire Caters in memory of McCain was rung by the bellringers of Washington National Cathedral the day following his death.[395] Reaction from the White House President Trump reportedly rejected the White House's plans to release a statement praising McCain's life, and he initially said nothing about McCain himself in a tweet that extended condolences to McCain's family.[396] WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

'The American flag flies at half-staff at the White House for Sen. John McCain' - video from Voice of America In addition, the flag at the White House, which had been lowered to half-staff the day of McCain’s death (August 25), was raised back to full-staff at midnight on August 27.[397] President Trump reportedly felt that media coverage of McCain’s death was excessive given that McCain was never president. [398]
In contrast with the White House’s initial decision, many governors, both Democratic and Republican, had ordered flags in their states to fly at half-
staff until interment, and Senate leaders Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer requested support from the Defense Department so that flags would be flown at half-staff on all government buildings.[399][400] The White House relented following the public backlash (including from the American Legion) and lowered its flag back to half-staff later on August 27, while President Trump belatedly issued a statement praising McCain's service to the country, and signed a proclamation ordering flags to be flown at half-staff until McCain's interment.[401][402] Political positions Main articles: Political positions of John McCain and Comparison of United States presidential candidates, 2008 McCain's congressional voting scores, from the American Conservative Union (red line; 100 is most conservative) and Americans for Democratic Action (blue line; 100 is most liberal)[403] Various advocacy groups have given McCain scores or grades as to how well his votes align with the positions of each group.[404] The American Conservative Union has awarded McCain a lifetime rating of 82 percent through 2015, while McCain has an average lifetime 12 percent "Liberal Quotient" from Americans for Democratic Action through 2015.[405] CrowdPac, which rates politicians based on donations made and received, has given Senator McCain a score of 4.3C with 10C being the most conservative and 10L being the most liberal.[406] The non-partisan National Journal rates a Senator's votes by what percentage of the Senate voted more liberally than he or she, and what percentage more conservatively, in three policy areas: economic, social, and foreign. For 2005–2006 (as reported in the 2008 Almanac of American Politics), McCain's average ratings were as follows: economic policy: 59 percent conservative and 41 percent liberal; social policy: 54 percent conservative and 38 percent liberal; and foreign policy: 56 percent conservative and 43 percent liberal.[407] In 2012, the National Journal gave McCain a composite score of 73 percent conservative and 27 percent liberal,[408] while in 2013 he received a composite score of 60 percent conservative and 40 percent liberal.[409] Columnists such as Robert Robb and Matthew Continetti have used a formulation devised by William F. Buckley Jr. to describe McCain as "conservative" but not "a conservative", meaning that while McCain usually tends towards conservative positions, he was not "anchored by the philosophical tenets of modern American conservatism."[410][411] Following his 2008 presidential election loss, McCain began adopting more orthodox conservative views; the magazine National Journal rated McCain along with seven of his colleagues as the "most conservative" Senators for 2010[412] and he achieved his first 100 percent rating from the American Conservative Union for that year.[403] During Barack Obama's presidency, McCain was one of the top five Republicans most likely to vote with Obama's position on significant votes; McCain voted with Obama's position on such votes more than half the time in 2013 and was "censured by the Arizona Republican party for a so-called 'liberal' voting record."[413] From the late 1990s until 2008, McCain was a board member of Project Vote Smart which was set up by Richard Kimball, his 1986 Senate opponent.[414] The project provides non-partisan information about the political positions of McCain[415] and other candidates for political office. Additionally, McCain used his Senate website to describe his political positions.[416] Cultural and political image Main article: Cultural and political image of John McCain Speaking in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Memorial Day, 2008, wearing his Purple Heart McCain and his wife Cindy watch in 2011 as their son Jimmy pins aviator wings on their son Ensign John Sidney McCain IV. Public opinion of John McCain[417] McCain's personal character was a dominant feature of his public image.[418] This image includes the military service of both himself and his family,[419] the circumstances and tensions surrounding the end of his first marriage and beginning of second,[24] his maverick political persona,[114] his temper,[420] his admitted problem of occasional ill-considered remarks,[91] and his close ties to his children from both his marriages.[24] WHAT’S THAT IN YOUR HAND?

McCain respected other faiths and admired Hare Krishna devotees. He used to greet them with saying "Hare Krishna!", and accepted copies of BhagavadGītā As It Is, along with sacred garlands from them on several occasions.[421] McCain's political appeal was more nonpartisan and less ideological compared to many other national politicians.[422] His stature and reputation stemmed partly from his service in the Vietnam War.[423] He also carried physical vestiges of his war wounds, as well as his melanoma surgery.[424] When campaigning, he quipped: "I am older than dirt and have more scars than Frankenstein."[425] Writers often extolled McCain for his courage not just in war but in politics, and wrote sympathetically about him.[58][418][423][426] McCain's shift of political stances and attitudes during and especially after the 2008 presidential campaign, including his self-repudiation of the maverick label, left many writers expressing sadness and wondering what had happened to the McCain they thought they had known.[427][428][429][430] By 2013, some aspects of the older McCain had returned, and his image became that of a kaleidoscope of contradictory tendencies, including, as one writer listed, "the maverick, the former maverick, the curmudgeon, the bridge builder, the war hero bent on transcending the call of self-interest to serve a cause greater than himself, the sore loser, old bull, last lion, loose cannon, happy warrior, elder statesman, lion in winter."[312] In his own estimation, the senator from Arizona was straightforward and direct, but impatient.[431] Other traits included a penchant for lucky charms,[432] a fondness for hiking,[433] and a sense of humor that sometimes backfired spectacularly, as when he made a joke in 1998 about the Clintons widely deemed not fit to print in newspapers: "Do you know why Chelsea Clinton is so ugly? – Because Janet Reno is her father."[434][435] McCain subsequently apologized profusely,[436] and the Clinton White House accepted his apology.[437] McCain did not shy away from addressing his shortcomings, and apologizing for them.[91][438] He was known for sometimes being prickly[439] and hot-tempered[440] with Senate colleagues, but his relations with his own Senate staff were more cordial, and inspired loyalty towards him.[441][442] He formed a strong bond with two senators, Joe Lieberman and Lindsey Graham, over hawkish foreign policy and overseas travel, and they became dubbed the "Three Amigos".[302] McCain acknowledged having said intemperate things in years past,[443] though he also said that many stories have been exaggerated.[444] One psychoanalytic comparison suggests that McCain was not the first presidential candidate to have a temper,[445] and cultural critic Julia Keller argues that voters want leaders who are passionate, engaged, fiery, and feisty.[420] McCain has employed both profanity[446] and shouting on occasion, although such incidents have become less frequent over the years.[447][448] Lieberman has made this observation: "It is not the kind of anger that is a loss of control. He is a very controlled person."[447] Senator Thad Cochran, who knew McCain for decades and had battled him over earmarks,[449][450] expressed concern about a McCain presidency: "He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me."[447] Yet Cochran supported McCain for president when was clear he would win the nomination.[451] The Chicago Tribune editorial board called McCain a patriot, who although sometimes wrong was fearless, and that he deserves to be thought of among the few US senators in history, whose names are more recognizable than some presidents.[452] All of McCain's family members were on good terms with him,[24] and he has defended them against some of the negative consequences of his highprofile political lifestyle.[453][454] His family's military tradition extends to the latest generation: son John Sidney IV ("Jack") graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 2009, becoming the fourth generation John S. McCain to do so, and is a helicopter pilot; son James served two tours with the Marines in the Iraq War; and son Doug flew jets in the navy.[24][455][456] His daughter Meghan became a blogging and Twittering presence in the debate about the future of the Republican Party following the 2008 elections, and showed some of his maverick tendencies.[457][458] McCain appeared in several television shows and films while he was a sitting senator.
