Show More
Chris Britt illustrated a cartoon to address Trumps view on the issue of transgender; he criticizes trump by identifying him as a Neanderthal, but offers no real solution on changing trumps view but rather implies that we should focus on bigger issues than bashing on peoples’ sexuality. In the cartoon designed by Chris Britt, Trump is depicted as a Neanderthal and the Neanderthal is looking for its designated restroom. Trump, the Neanderthal, is shown saying “ME NO LIKE TRANSGENDER PEOPLE.” Transgender is defined as “Noting or relating to a person whose gender identify does not correspond to that person’s biological sex assigned at birth” (Dictionary.com). There are three label restrooms presented Men, Women, and NEANDERTHAL. And Trump looks

    A Rhetorical Analysis Of A Political Cartoon By David Horsey

    The author of this political cartoon is David Horsey. He usually does political cartoons and for this specific one, he purposely chooses his audience that belong to everyday average parents, teachers, and gun loving patriots all the while persuading them of his opinion by using rhetorical words and images. The comic itself displays how he feels on gun control, and how little security the public is allowed to have for themselves whether it be concealed or otherwise. How the comic is formatted to look and the culture also greatly affect his work. The cartoon’s main figure ( Sarah Palin) also believes that gun control could easily leave millions of people defenceless in the U.S., which given with the several who seek to brutalize Americans such as Terrorists, crazed gun-men, and even random psychos .…

    Gavin Grimm's Case Summary

    The current event that I choose was the case of Gavin Grimm v. Gloucester County School Board. Grimm is a transgender student from Virginia that was denied the right to use the bathroom that corresponds with his gender identity. Grimm won against the school board in the federal appeals court, but the court ruled the school had to let Grimm used a unisex bathroom that was created for him. Although Gavin won the case, Gavin feels as though it still excludes him from using the bathroom of the gender identity he identifies with. Gavin and his lawyers decided to take the case to the supreme court and let the court decide on which interpretation of Title IX is correct.…

    Bathroom Bills Persuasive Speech

    Most bathroom bills that have recently been proposed aim to make sure trans people can only use public bathrooms that match the sex indicated in their birth certificate. This means that a trans woman who was born male will not be allowed to use a female bathroom in a mall or a restaurant. It might seem like too much trouble to go through in an effort to limit a trans person’s use of the bathroom, but…

    Adversity In The Bean Trees By Barbara Kingsolver

    Adversity is a basic part of humanity. Without adversity there would never be progress, however, it can be excruciatingly painful. So how-if it is so painful-could this led to progress and relief? Adversity is conflict, it is struggle, and once struggle occurs, the problem can be noticed. This is shown to be true by Barbara Kingsolver in The Bean Trees, Desiderius Erasmus in In Praise of Folly, and Dave Philipps in “Second Judge Blocks Trump’s Transgender Ban in the Military”.…

    Capitalism: Identity For Transgender Women

    Caitlyn Jenner herself was quoted saying that “the hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear.” Many consider it stunning progress that we have successfully integrated transgender women into the pages of our largest magazines and onto our television screens. However, an identity for transgender women was never established outside of the traditional female archetypes that support the perpetuation of Capitalism. Dozens of transgender women, especially transgender women of color, have been murdered in the past year.…

    Department Of Homeland Security Memo Summary

    On the night of October 19th, I attended an event co sponsored by the Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies department and the Franklin Humanities institute at Duke. Doctor Nicholas L. Clarkson joined us to inspire a discussion about the intersection between biopolitics, identity, citizenship and nationalism. To begin, Dr. Clarkson discussed the 2003 Department of Homeland Security memo signaling security personnel to be alert for terrorist who concealed weapons under women’s clothing. The publishing of this memo would foreshadow the eventual linkage of transgendered people with terror/terrorism. A central theme to Clarkson's talk was the misrepresentation and visibility factors of transgendered people in contemporary society.…

    Summary Of The Film 'Playing Unfair'

    An article was written by Michael J. Broyde, published by CNN, and titled “Transgender Bathroom Issue: A Solution?”, gives a synopsis of the issue of letting people go into the bathroom of their identified gender, rather than just their birth gender. The article opens by just explaining how that this topic got into the limelight when the supreme court took up a case of a high school student trying to use a boy’s bathroom, and whether or not that should be allowed (Broyde). Broyde then goes on to explain that in many religions, including his own, using the bathroom is seen as an extreme private time and shouldn’t be shared with anyone regardless of gender. Then, Broyde gives what he believes to be the best solution to this problem is to make…

    Into The Wild Chris Analysis

    When Chris completely abandons his life, he travels for two years moving all along the southwestern United States, and eventually moves to the Magic Bus in Alaska. This bus is where Chris’s dead body is found in September of 1992, along with an S.O.S note he wrote when he realized he is close to death. The environment in which Chris lived for that extended period of time is vital to his story; this isn’t like a boy scouting trip in which you bring your grocery store graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate, and roast them while laughing with your friends. This isolation made Chris completely dependent on the land, even having him record in his journal what food he caught that day. Some days it was squirrels, other days he was lucky to find…

    North Carolina Farmer In Bigotry

    In recent months there has been much discussion surrounding North Carolina’s controversial new bill that prohibits transgender individuals from using public restrooms for the gender they identify as, and also bans cities from passing antidiscrimination laws. This new bill, naturally, sparked a number of different opinions. For instance, the editorial “Transgender Law Makes North Carolina Pioneer in Bigotry” by the New York Times heavily criticizes the law for reinforcing and validating negative narratives of transgender people. In contrast, The Daily Wire article “5 Times Transgender Men Abused Women and Children in the Bathroom” is a conservative piece that criticizes the liberal point of view and justifies North Carolina’s by citing specific…

    Argument Against Gay Love

    Gay love has been an issue for the longest now and it’s beginning to get out of hand. But that’s not the only thing that’s getting out of hand, what also is getting out of hand is societies view on those who are transgender. Which brought to my attention that some people are so reluctant to change that they resort violence and brute force in order to shape things into their image whenever something that they say is wrong starts to occur. They are only interested and care about what they want to see is “right” day to day. The way we approach people who are gay or transgender is outright ridiculous and ignorant which can easily be added to the millions of other situations where ignorance has occurred in history.…

    Pros And Cons Of Non-Binary And Transgender People

    Non-Binary and Transgender People When a child is born the first thing their parents hear is, “Congratulations it’s a girl,” or “Congratulations it’s a boy”. Already trying to enforce the idea that there are only two genders the moment they take their first breath. JAC Stringer of the Heartland Trans* Wellness Group defined, gender binary as the cultural belief of only two genders existing and they have to correspond to the appropriate sex. This social construct is iterated on a daily basis whether it is through medical institutions, language or applications. As a result of its dominance in society, the gender binary system is highly exclusive towards non-binary and transgender people.…

    Over The Garden Wall Cartoon Analysis

    Exactly why do cartoons always fall into the category of ¨kids’ stuff¨? What could be the reasoning behind this stigma of being cheaply made and poorly written so that only a child could enjoy them? It is outrageous, really, because animation does not necessarily have to be treated that way. In fact, as of the last few decades, there has been a sort of renaissance with animation wherein cartoons are given higher budgets and better stories that could parallel even the best live-action media. Cartoons are being treated not just as entertainment for kids, but as entertainment for anyone and everyone.…
