meat industry, for the most part these regulations are poorly enforced since the number of available inspectors is fairly small. As a result, the meat industry continues to confine animals to terrible conditions. In In the Belly of the Beast by Rolling Stone, an animal rights activists/investigator Cody Carlson compiled footage of the horrors that commonly occurred at factory farms.

I chose Rolling Stone magazine because it focuses on popular culture, such as music and movie reviews, musical artists, politics and sports. In my opinion, Rolling Stone’s vast majority of topics ensures a section for everyone, no matter what their interests are. Jann Wenner created Rolling Stone in 1967, who is still editor and publisher today. Wenner borrowed money from his family and in-laws to start the magazine. In the first edition of the magazine, Wenner wrote that Rolling Stone “is not…

How did the Rolling Stones impact the Counterculture movement in the 1960’s? The Rolling Stone impacted the Counterculture Movement through their music which rebelled against the traditions of society. The society at the time was filled with racial segregation, Vietnam War, and America was an orthodox society. This time period was known as the Baby Boom, and as a result, there was a new generation called Hippies, which began to question society and how it worked. The Rolling Stone impacted the…

The Ruthwell cross is a stone, Anglo-Saxon monument which breaks down and disrupts several different societal and culturally defined binaries and is an example of how one object can exist as multiple things/ideas at once. This essay will focus on the disruption of the narrative of past and present, human and non-human, male and female, and wood and stone. Many different aspects and elements of the cross come into play when doing a diffractive reading of the Ruthwell cross. The cross was created…

of a barbaric tradition, one that sacrifices a member of the community once a year by stoning them to a slow death. The sacrifice is chosen through two rounds of picking a slip of paper out of a black box and the one who has the black dot they will stone. It easy to judge this village as savage. Yet the story begins with a gleeful description of a beautiful day with a context that depicts the heart-land of America type of farming town,…

Chapter One They'd always maintained the Balance. The proof was there, in black and white, in tomes long forgotten and archived and further back, etched onto steel discs and chiseled into stone. The Balance and the Blood went hand in hand. A multitude of worlds whirled in their own cosmos, each different from the last like sparks from a fire. There were constants, though - Nod, for one. That ancient land, that other place, was the lynchpin. All souls came to Nod, in one way or another. Mr. Black…

Describe the role the arts, crafts and material play in the Indian Summer, in Van der Nüll's essay and in the excerpt from The Stones of the Abby. The Stones of the Abbey: With its physicality expressed through clay, the site of the St. Clotilda monastery, reflects the inner anxiety and instability of the humans populating the abbey. The monk, and narrator, journaling the Stones of the Abbey, describes how the materials – their imperfection and irregularity – serve a challenge to be overcome,…

Or were they waiting for me outside, sitting on the edge of the cliff casting pebbles into the canyon? I backed out from between the rocks and flew through the muddled mineshafts, using the footprints I had scribbled on the stones to negotiate the obstacle course. For a while I lost myself in the mindless frenzy—frantically running…

I watched these men scheme. For three months I felt sharpened spoons digging through me. There were crude papier-mâché heads made of soap, paper, and remnants of haircuts from the barber shop hidden on top of the cellblock. Raincoats and rubber cement were stowed away in a dark corner covered in spider webs. Stolen raincoats were stockpiled with thread to build a makeshift raft. The entire stratagem was so meticulously planned, but I wondered how they would ever survive. It was June 11, 1962.…
