3. Discussion and Findings: 3.1 Differences and similarities in their dishes/cuisines: Tunisian cuisine to a certain extent is distinct from Moroccan cuisine. All the same Morocco and Tunisia share several gastronomic traditions, owing mainly to their Berber inhabitants, there are likewise vast differences. The difference starts, confusingly, with the names of dishes. Take tagine, for instance. At the mere mention of the word, one immediately thinks of fragrant, subtly spiced stews that often…

In exploring such a poignant topic as exile, one must first examine the group of people most likely to be subjected to exile. Often, this group tends to be the socially observed “other.” What an other is can change drastically depending on who is defining it, and to whom they’re assigning the term. As we’ve seen in both Book of Salt by Monique Truong, and Exile According to Julia by Gisele Pineau, the characters Bihn and Man Ya represent comparable, but fundamentally different ideas of the other…

Algeria in France: Transpolitics, Race and Nation by Paul Silverstein, provides ethnography of the Algerian existence in France as well as the transnational Berber movement. Silverstein approaches his subjects through the medium of everyday life, following the random individuals he met during his field work in the 1990s, using an ethnographical methodology with a very critical and self-reflexive alertness of the environment he shared with them.

One sure way to make even the closest of friends hate you is to be a traitor. Nobody likes a traitor. Turn against your friends, your military, or your country and you may go down in history for your treachery. People will hate you for years and years to come. Judas Iscariot, who some Christians may recognize as the man who betrayed Jesus Christ, is still taught about and looked down on today. Benedict Arnold and Robert Hanssen, two American traitors, were passionately hated for years until…

By the age of thirteen he was orphaned, so he understood the hardships that afflicted the lower classes. He could not help but be touched by the spirit of the times. As a young man, after grammar school, he went on a tour of Europe. This gave him a perspective that many others did not share considering most individuals during this time never travelled very far from the homes they were…

Film Review: The Poniente What does it take to grow a tomato plant? For most people, perhaps a handful of seeds, a bag of fertilizer, and the occasionally trimming and watering would be sufficient enough to harvest the fruits in a few months’ time. Yet, as the film The Poniente has showed, the real cost behind these seemly average household items, are often beyond our imaginations. The Poniente tells the story of a single mother, Lucia, who tried to lead the family business in a rural costal…
