different heritages and my own. I find it funny though, that there are so many differences in nationalities, when our genetics are all mixed.

I also found out, to my delight that the 17% of me is from Italy/Greece. I was very excited to know this because ever since I read all the Percy Jackson books I've loved to learn about Greece and Greek…

In the eyes of strangers to the religion, Santeria may only resemble Voodoo rituals, with no eternal purpose for the Santeros. So what exactly is the perennial goal for Santeros?

“Black, male, I would say intellectual, curious, fun,” This was Brandon’s response when I asked him about his identity. I met Brandon in the Undergraduate Library here on campus at 9:30 on a Thursday night. Brandon was born in Canada to two Ghanaian parents but spent a good portion of this life in Wrightsville, Pennsylvania. This may have a lot to do with the way he responded to my question.

With the recognition of gender-based asylum widely protested by feminist groups in the U.S, Ms. Kassindja, expecting her plea for asylum…
