After reviewing the previously discussed crime measurements, I am mainly concerned with the rapid increase in street robberies that have increased almost 25% since 2012. This crime has a devastating effect on the community. Street robbery may generate a significant amount of fear among the public because victims are often confronted with an immediate threat to life, a loss of control and incursion of personal space (Gale & Coupe, 2005). The fear caused by such a violent and pervasive…
Both Craig Womack’s novel “Drowning in Fire” and Gloria Anzaldúa’s semi-autobiographical work “Borderlands” explore the intersection between queer and Indian identities. One specific way that Womack and Anzaldúa focus on these identities is through the tension between native religions and Christianity in the lives of modern natives. Both authors come up with a compelling narrative of what it is like to be native and queer in the face of an institutionalized product of Western conquest like…
Peter Bagge’s Hate comics were published as the underground comics movement was ending and a new alternative comics movement was taking shape. While the issues of Hate give all the appearances of being geared towards a male audience, the exclusive alternative nature of the comics allowed for a significant male and female audience that allowed readers to identify themselves within the characters’ self-critical reflection and distain for mainstream media and peoples characterized their internal…

portrayed as an endeavor of the European white male, pre-colonial and colonial Georgia depended heavily, if not foundationally, on the contributions of slaves, Native Americans, and women, particularly Native American women. From the beginning, the intersection of culture and religion shaped the early colony. The religious tenets the first explorers and settlers brought with them forced themselves on the native population of pre-colonial and colonial Georgia. (cornerstones, 2, para1). Priests…
Intersectionality is the critical examination of how a myriad of social identities overlap, shape and affect a person living in a neo-colonialist world. These social identities include race, gender, socio-economic status, sexuality, religion, and age. The intersection of social categories explains why certain people benefit from the capitalist-patriarchy and why others experience oppression, discrimination, and domination. Himani Bannerji’s analogy of intersectionality is simple but effective.…
First generation children like me are often known as ABCD’s, or American-born Confused Desis. Torn between our Indian traditions and American culture, we sometimes feel misfit in both cultures. We are stuck at this intersection where we feel forced to decide to either turn one way or another. My parents left their family and roots behind for the promise that they would be able to pursue opportunities not available in India. Yet their new home in America was also a place where their mother…
