The entire realm of news is undergoing major organizational shifts, whether influenced by economic changes, new digital platforms or an audience that is demographically younger and more diverse. The move online is a key reason there is a growing public distrust of news media sources (Abdulla, 2002). Free access, along with the sudden influx of bloggers and social media users, has inundated the internet with information – some more reliable and verifiable than others. The 2016 presidential…
associated with the term. New York City is in my opinion, the best city in the world to be a flânuer in. I often find myself mindlessly wandering the streets, looking for unexpected experiences, feelings, smells, people, and spectacles. I have walked the streets seeking entertainment countless times, with no apparent goal or destination. Although I am a lifetime New Yorker, there are always new things to experience and see. There are different ways to go about being a flânuer in New York City.…
new school new Me? I remember the first day that I moved to Troy, Missouri. I was six years old and had only about one month left in the first grade. It was my fourth school of the year… None if it was my fault, nor the fault of my family, moving just proved to be a large hassle. Deals that were “set in stone” by the original owners crumbled upon our fingertips. That wouldn’t have been a big deal, had I not already switched schools and had to go back to my hometown class.

New Jersey is the greatest state in America. This has nothing to do with the fact that I have lived in New Jersey my whole life; I make this claim strictly with objectivity and fact based arguments. The diverse, and densely populated state is home to a bevy of attractive and titillating features. Historically, culturally, scenically, New Jersey is without equal. Conventional wisdom of New Jersey’s ails are not grounded in reality. New Jersey is called “The Garden State” for a reason, as despite…
New Orleans has always held a special place in my heart. I was born in the Crescent City, moving to Seattle only a year before Katrina, and I have returned to visit for two weeks every summer since. When I think of the New Orleans of my childhood, I remember food packed with flavor, music full of heart, and people teeming with generosity. I always devoured my aunt’s red beans and rice and my uncle’s duck and andouille gumbo. Playing in City Park, walking through the Audubon Zoo, and…
At the turn of another century, the citizens of New Orleans are called to reflect on what has happened in the city. While some may reflect on major events (i.e. Hurricane Katrina and Super Bowl), I turned my attention to the people. The people who worked the district of Storyville and now work Bourbon Street. Correction, the women, the sex workers who have either chosen the dancer lifestyle or it has been chosen for them. According to the National Human Trafficking Hotline in 2017, Louisiana had…
