The Blob

surprised collision of emotions. Walker however uses humorous stereotypical tactics to protest the oppression of African Americans during the slave era in the United States. If the textbook had not provided a description of piece it would look like blobs of woman and an out of place child with a boat on is head. Keinholz is much clearer with his work, with a glance one can see that it is medical related. Although her cutout figures were interesting it was difficult to know what was…

To understand the notions put forward by Eduardo Kohn in ‘How Forests Think’, our anthropologic views must first be deconstructed. It is only after this that we begin to see ‘beyond the human’; as Kohn describes, it is a “kind of thinking that grows” (2013:27).

Kayla’s laughter rang out in the darkness as we raced back to the house. We always spent Halloween pranking the houses around the neighborhood, but this year we went a little extreme. It was our last year before college and we were both moving out of state come fall.

We were in the middle of the last house on the street when…

This phrase, however, was never uttered by the French Queen yet is an imperative part of the collective stereotype of Marie Antoinette and perhaps the most prevailing way of understanding her character. A myriad of example like these can be found throughout pop culture, where cultural memory creates a perception of a historical event that is not entirely accurate or in sync…

The kids were an eclectic mix of locals, summer people, and the offspring of the scientists who had occupied the waterfront, but the jellyfish in their buckets were pretty much alike—formless, colorless blobs about the size of mice. They were blind and brainless, possessing only mouths, muscles, and weak stingers, and one more thing, of enormous interest to Shimomura—rims of punctate green light that ran around their bodies like salt around the…
