Shuffle Along easily became the most popular musical of the Harlem Renaissance. Shuffle Along opened on May 23, 1921 at the 63rd Street Theatre (which wasn’t technically considered part of the Broadway stretch at the time) and ran for 504 performances.

Basketball is a highly competitive sport, usually played between two different teams. Yet, the competition runs deeper than just the game played between two opposing teams. The truth is, players on the same team compete over roles all the time. This type of in-team competition is normal, but it must be kept at a healthy level. The Legacy Girls' Basketball team suffers from this type of competition everyday. In the past, the girls have had very successful seasons––just last year, in fact, they went
Heroism can be found in everyone. In anything. Heroism can be in any form, in any way. Everyone has a hero, and everyone is a hero. A hero has been expounded in different varieties.

There are different beliefs as to the probable causes of the California drought. The two primary theories are that the drought was either caused by climate change or climate variability. Alan Stahler, a columnist, followed a group of scientists who discovered the true cause of the drought, “The recent multi-year drought was caused not by global warming, but by the sea surface temperature pattern – itself caused by natural variability” (Stahler par. 14).Regardless of the cause of drought, the drought
In 1951, Cleveland radio disc jockey Alan Freed sparked the three word phrase ‘Rock and Roll’. But whatever you call this genre of music, it took the world by storm, and changed the face of music, and history forever.

While most would agree, that this type of music first started coming to fruition in the south
