The bystander effect refers to a social phenomenon that occurs when an individual abstains from assisting others in an emergency situation when others are present (Latané & Darley, 1968). In the evidence presented above it can be seen that LH was a victim of the bystander effect when friends and onlookers saw that she was in distress but did not attempt to assist…

As exemplary pieces of off-centered queer cinema in contemporary Mainland China, the 1996 film East Palace, West Palace by Zhang Yuan and the 2009 film Spring Fever by Lou Ye denote two distinctive paradigms of artistic approaches in tackling the tension between homosexuality and heterosexuality: the former one is to emphasize power contradictions between the peripheral queer and the dominant straight to constitute the groundbreaking subversion of power relationships traditionally dictated by…

In this paper, I will argue that no one should be allowed to purchase a gun. There will be a lot of people that would oppose this decision because the second amendment gives them the right to bear arms. However, there shouldn’t be any amendment that puts other people’s lives at risk. Some people might even argue that strict background check might be able to lower the crime rate caused by guns. However, this cannot halt crimes in this country. It is possible for someone who has never committed a…

he was going to die. This is something no parent should go through. Unfortunately this was reality to Mina Justice the mother to Eddie Justice, one of the forty-nine victims whose lives were tragically taken by a gunman who opened fire in a gay nightclub on June 12, 2016 in Orlando, FL. The massacre was the deadliest act of violence to the LGBTQ community. For most of us we turn to social media to connect with others and we tried to make sense of what happened. We connect to make sure others are…

On October 6,1998, Matthew Shepard was left to die after accepting a ride home from two Caucasian males who beat and tortured him in Laramie, Wyoming. These two men assumed Matthew Shepard was gay and decided it was their duty to rid him of his existence. The two men who inflicted this gruesome act on Matthew Shepard weren’t prosecuted because of the law from 1969. About 35,000 hate crimes go unreported every year and this is for the LGBT communities alone, (LGBT Foundation, 2015). So many hate…

When Patrick Loggins’ Time Wharp project released the smartly and jazzily constructed “Cole Dub” earlier this year, I had to sit back and notice. “Cole Dub”, like much of Time Wharp’s eponymous debut, toes the line between nightclub and morning commute music - you can hear the conflict in the thumping nocturnal beat mixed with that oily hi hat (which also helps to explain the choice in cover art). “Cole Dub” and the rest of Time Wharp is a very, very nice debut LP from a producer who could - and…
