    contrary, McCullough tries, through a braggart perspective, to discipline the students by giving them specific guide lines of what they must do in order to make the most out of their lives (4). The difference between an explanation and a frivolous rant is huge. McCullough fails to realize that the students are done listening to sermons and speeches about how to live their life’s, that although they are well intended, this kind of speeches have the same structure as any of their other subjects in…

    A comment made by the author Shelby Foote in a YouTube video sparked a discussion between my friend and I. Foote argued that Huck Finn is the biggest racist in the book, whereas my friend argued that due to the environment in which Huck grew up, he did not know any better and therefore, Huck was not racist.

    (Rant warning: I spent the day talking about Mormon fundamentalism with my US Politics & Religion class and how a “woman’s purpose” was to bear children. So, this was a wild ride full of frustration.) The tone that Aeschylus uses towards women was not unexpected, but I still was not ready for Orestes and Apollo to be so direct with their misogyny.
