What first drew me to Bell Hooks was the fact she is a female author. I have a great respect for…

Essentially, I agree with Krass’ argument regarding the influence of social media and new sources because both utilities enable current college students not to face…

Has your school ever caught you snoozing in class. If so schools should push back the school's bell schedule because it give the students more sleep and feel more energized for school. I claim that school should push back bell schedules because of sleep time, education, and less emotion. First, sleep is a big thing for teens that can’t get up in time for the bell.

In bell hooks’s essay, “Feminist Politics: Where We Stand”, she discusses the loss direction and meaning behind feminism, and therefore a loss of momentum as well. The word ‘feminism’ today has been pegged as a movement embraced by a group of man-hating, power hungry women who want everything men have. Thus, many women refuse to be identified as feminists.
