…E very time a classroom door opens in the middle of a class, I momentarily freeze. I look toward the door, no longer able to hear my professor’s words, only coming to a place of relaxation when a student or somebody else who’s meant to be there meets my eyes. I’m scared of it being someone who has come to shoot my peers and me. This has been true throughout my time at college, in all kinds of classrooms. Maybe you think this ...…
…The Michigan Daily — michigandaily.com Arts Wednesday, February 21, 2018 — 5A Maybe the strangest thing to come out of the rise of the television antihero was the writers’ room assumption that if viewers could root for the flawed and morally ambiguous — the Don Drapers and Tony Sopranos — surely we would find it in ourselves to extend that empathy to the downright insufferable. Sometimes, if executed well, we actually might; “Gi...…

…M y relatives like to joke that Asians and Asian- Americans shouldn’t do hip-hop because we haven’t faced the same tribulations as other races. They especially ridicule certain rappers from their native Japan, who never suffered from racism, abject poverty, street violence or drug dealing but don expensive sneakers and talk about swag.
