Novelist Stephen King centered on the theme of supremacy characteristic of white males over western native peoples masterfully in his book, The Shining. As a country yearning for new land, a young America stretched its borders into the West. While colonizing, white males believed that they were superior to the native peoples inhabiting the territory, and slaughtered hundreds of them to take over their lands. It’s been believed since those turbulent times in the colonial days of the United…

Pond Hockey and Civic Duty Whether at a stadium with referees and organized periods, or a pick up game with friends on the pond behind my house, I have always enjoyed hockey. However, each of these two styles of play is quite different. A good example of this is when the goalie covers the puck by their goal.

The presence of the child in King’s novels must be…
