Cookie Monster

The subjugating of certain groups of peoples through stereotyping and enemy making is commonplace within American society. Unfortunately, even break-through, massively successful shows perpetuate this narrative, as shown with the television show Breaking Bad. Breaking Bad centers around a high school chemistry teacher, Walter White, as he “breaks bad” and becomes a methamphetamine dealer/ producer in attempts to help alleviate some of the financial burden put upon his family by his grim lung…

“Sunny day, sweepin’ the clouds away, on my way to where the air is sweet, can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?” These catchy lyrics can only be identified as the iconic children's show, “Sesame Street”’s theme song. Over the years, the program has come a long way from its creation, first episodes, and cast and special guests. Despite these changes, Sesame Street remains a household favorite and will continue to be for years to come. As the eventful decade of the 1960’s…

day Within that month in a half of being in Alabama and hanging out with the family has been interesting. My mom, sister and I had seen and experienced quite a few things. One day when we were at the park, I had spotted out two guys wearing a Cookie Monster and a minion’s costume suit. I can never go to a public place with one of my cousins because he acts a little goofy laughing and pointing at people trying to get attention. Sunday evening I went to a Bowling Alley with a few people but, I…

Experience: When I realized where my seat was I was a little angry. I was sitting in the front row (row A). When Mark Kendall (The Magic Negro first) appeared on stage, he was very warming and welcoming. This made me feel at ease and not so upset about being in the very front. His scenes were very clever. I really enjoyed the Dr. Seuss scene because he made the story into something that related to the topic. In his version of Green, Eggs, & Ham a white person told Sam he does not say the N word…

she had to try the pozole and flan because she's never had home-cooked Mexican food before. And the cookie wasn’t going to hurt right? Riley had one, too and she's really skinny. Or a bit of queso, actually a whole bowl because she never got to have it, and the cake, the cookies,…

remember her past life before Hydra kidnapped her. “Candy is a sweet food with sugar combined with different types of food. Like fruit, chocolate, or nuts. Cookies is a small sweet cake that is round.” Phil explained “Here is a candy bar and a cookie.” Phil puts down a chocolate bar and milk chocolate bag in front of her. She glances up to him between the sweets in front of her. “Go ahead.” She hesitantly opens the chocolate bar, before taking a bite. Her eyes brighten showing more…

activity was given the appealing title “ Sugar Quiz Show” to catch the children attention and interest (Appendix). The children were asked to choose a team name with something related to sugar. They were divided into three groups: Rainbow Fruits, Cookie Monsters and Anti Bad Sugar. The quiz included 10 questions about the different names of sugar, its production, the meaning of free sugar, and the number of sugar cubes present in some examples of food and beverage. The children were provided…

into mass murderers as a result of being immersed in an environment where the literate arts are placed on the back burner while things such as TV or video games are more prevalent. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold can in many ways be seen as horrible monsters, however they were not illiterate. They could by no means even be considered as ones who neglect the literate arts, as they were very actively involved in reading and producing literature that lined up with their agenda and ideals. This goes…

It doesn’t matter what type of energy drink it is, whether it is Red Bull, Monsters, or Full Throttles, they all contain large amounts of sugar in them. Sugar makes your organs fat, sugar stores in your body, and causes insulin resistance. A lot of college students would agree with me when I say I need energy drinks to function…

Batman as Joker, and Spiderman as the Green Goblin. Portraying heroes as villains and the latter as heroes was his specialty. In order to make this work, Stephen Crane not only depicted both sides of a character, but also lived in his own contradictions. Following the Civil War, slaves were freed, but the minds of the people were still enslaved. Crane’s own life contradictions enabled him to publicize the idea that no one could be judged, whether it be because there are too many things going on…
