The influence of rock ‘n' roll was popularized in the 1950s and it was during this time rock ‘n' roll became somewhat of a divider but also a method of bringing people together. It pitted parents, the government, and even the mass media against teens and at the same stretch helped to erode some of the prejudices and the boundary lines between African Americans and White people. Parents in particular, disapproved the influence and message behind rock ‘n' roll, as it was a sexualized style of…

my head, like hecklers at a comedy club trying to kill a performance. Like the comic who gets heckled, I pushed through and plucked the book from the shelf. The spine felt like an accordion; the pages smelled of years of use. The little girl on the cover stared at me, expectant almost. The words, “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” were worn and faded. As I read, the book was littered with distortions, contradictions, and differences in perspective. It created an uncomfortable, yet familiar,…

he is from the valley of ashes because, like the name suggests, ashes are an important part of the valley. Because the ash can be physically found on people, it suggests that this ashen imagery goes beyond a fantastical dream and that this ash does cover the valley. The ash must float down like snow after being pumped out of the sky by factories, and collect itself onto the clothes of the residents. But, while it seems like everyone who lives in the valley of ashes should have this gray soot on…

“Then God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence because of them; and behold, I am about to destroy them with the earth.” The biblical flood comprises chapters 6-9 in the Book of Genesis of the Bible. The chapters state God’s disgust of what humanity had become, and his intentions to cleanse the earth. One man and his family were picked by God to build an ark and save a male/female of each animal. God’s intentions led to Noah’s Ark. In…

"Gone Girl" is a movie about a psychopath who turns an ordinary life into chaos. Each scene in the movie refers to real fears, real emotions and real messages of love and friendship. But at the same time, not a single frame is meant to be taken literally, as a documentary-like story of how people are, should be, or shouldn't be.

others to desire them. On October 5th, 2015 the Kardashians had the honor of being the cover for Cosmopolitans 50th year anniversary. Although the legitimacy of the Cosmopolitan Magazine can be debated, the honor to represent the cover is a rather impressive feat. In typical Karadashian style, the family bastardized the honor by using the cover opportunity to display themselves in a sexual manner. The magazine cover shows all the Kardashian and Jenner girls in nothing but white button-down…

Erich Nunn’s essay “Screening the Twenty-First-Century South” stresses issues in the South in the Twenty-First-Century. He focuses on how commodified “well worn,” as nunn states, stereotyped versions of Southern residents are glorified and laughed at throughout media. The media portrays the South as such to cover up the actual issues the South is facing. He digs deep into popular TV shows that do so, such as Duck Dynasty, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, and True Detective. Nunn begins his argument…
