What this class offered was a broadening of that […]

In one of my sociology classes last semester, my professor mentioned race consciousness and progress, specifically Obama’s s […]

I’m sensitive to auditory stimuli over which I have no control, so I often listen to music, which is a source of inspiration in the emotions/moods it evokes. 

In terms of sound on the page, I tend to shy away from considering rhythm and meter, probably…[Read more]
