Why is New York called the "Big Apple"?<br> What was the reason to call it that way?
miskamm [114]

Explanation:

New York City is America’s largest city and one of the most popular in the world. The city is home to some of the world’s most historic monuments, magnificent buildings, and countless dazzling skyscrapers. For centuries, New York has been an <em>urban jungle</em> and <em>epicenter for art</em>, <em>dining</em>, <em>shopping</em>, and <em>trendy neighborhoods</em>. New York has been nicknamed the "Big Apple," although the name has no reference to the growing of apples. The nickname the "Big Apple" <em>primarily gained relevance in the 1920s through horse racing</em>, as reported in the New York Morning Telegraph by John J. Fitz Gerald. Prior to this, the city referred to as the "New Orange," nicknamed after William III of Orange, the Dutch leader who conquered the English and took over New York.

Origin of the "Big Apple" Nickname

Various myths existed regarding the origin of the name, including a reference to the people who sold apples on the streets to earn a living during the Great Depression. However, other accounts claim the name originated from a woman named Eve who ran a brothel was referred to by her girls as "Big Apples." However, the name is believed to have originated from a precept used by newspaper sports columnist John J. Fitz Gerald in the New York Morning Telegraph. On February 18, 1924, Fitz Gerald officially nabbed the colloquialism in his articles under the heading “The Big Apple.”

Fitz Gerald had heard the name being used by two African-American stable hands to refer to the New York City, whose horse racing trails were deemed the most preeminent venues. Once the name became popularized, it spread beyond sports into nightclubs and music. In 1930, jazz artists from New York took on the term to refer to their hometown in their music, popularizing the name further to the northeast.

Use in Popular Culture

The moniker soon languished from use until the 1970s, when it was revived as part of a campaign in hope of reviving New York’s tourist economy. <em>During that time, the city was in economic distress, coupled with intensified street crime that tarnished the city’s image.</em> In the hopes of restoring the city to its former glory, Charles Gillett, president of the New York Convention and Visitors Bureau, promoted the city as the "Big Apple," and used there image of the apple on t-shirts, placards, and promotional materials. This time, the nickname stuck.

In 1997, the corner of West 54th Street and Broadway, where Fitz Gerald had lived between 1934 and 1963, was named "Big Apple Corner" in his honor. In 2016, President Donald Trump hosted a party to celebrate his victory and named it the 'Big Apple Ball' with decorations and cut-outs of New York landmarks in honor of his home city.

Today, the nickname is ubiquitous with New York City throughout the English-speaking world

Answer:

I am writing this document today because I feel like I am oppressed and ignored at school. I believe that public schools should have teachers that care for their students. That they should help out the students more instead of ignoring them. That they should help us with our work instead of just piling it on us and expecting us to do it all in one day. I go to school everyday to learn and i dont learn anything if the teachers don't care to teach, but to ignore.

As a student my rights are to get a good education, learn, and to have the materials in order to succeed in school so i have a good education. I should have the right to take a day out of school for being sick or for a family emergency and not have to worry about getting marked absent and have to worry about coming back to school and having a pile of work to do. I come to school to learn not to have to worry that if I don't get my grade up I'll fail or if i dont turn something in I'll be in trouble. I believe I have the rights and responsibilities as a student to get a good education and not have to worry about missing assignments because all that does is make me father behind in class because when I work on them I start to get behind on what i'm learning now because i can't pay attention to it.

I believe that the school has failed at what they do because they hire people who don't seem to care. I go to school to learn and if i don't have anyone to teach me then how will I be able to learn? A school should be paying attention to students and caring for them instead of not paying attention and letting any and everything happen in them. A school is supposed to be a place where kids should feel safe and not have to worry about getting hurt especially if it happens in their homes.

I declare that I should have the rights to learn and have teachers who care. That i should feel safe in school and be able to get a good meal. That i should be able to learn and not worry about falling behind because of missing assignments. That is, I as a student should be provided with the right materials to work and be able to get my education for a good future and to be able to get a good job. I will defend this by standing my ground and helping others when the teacher doesn't care and making sure that even if the teachers can't teach me I can still learn from the materials and books in the school.
