Through this episode, I wanted to take a moment to discuss the negative ramifications of this low standard we saw with Obama that can come to play in our everyday lives. Since I plan to become a teacher of young ones, I thought this area would be something that should both interest and concern me. In order to analyze such a large-scale issue, we are going to take a look at a document that was released and taught in multiple states back in 2021 entitled Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction.

In this episode, I want to take a look at moments and comments made within Barack Obamas presidency and campaigns to see what kind of different standard he as a politician was held to. We know this standard was due to his race, but I want to dig deeper than that. I want to know why White Americans could not handle this and if it does in fact have something to do with insecurity.

What I sought to find within this episode was whether or not black women also deal with such a degrading low standard within the political realm that black men do. In doing this I wanted to take a look at comments made towards and actions taken against the newly confirmed, and first black female confirmed, Supreme Court Justice Kentanji Brown Jackson. What I found was actually quite the opposite. Black women actually tend to be held to such a high standard that they inevitably cannot reach due to an inherent want to see them fail from our politicians. 

In this episode, join me in analyzing and interpreting the classic American novel The Great Gatsby through the lens of Feminist and Marxist Theory. These critical theories can bring to light ideas and themes we may have never before noticed, or found particularly groundbreaking. We can see the good and the bad within this novel and further push the boundaries of social constructs and socioeconomic issues within the novel. And hey, if you've ever taken a lit class I'm sure you've heard some not so great things about Ms. daisy Buchanan. Well, this interpretation may change that for you. 

In this Episode i am joined by my high school best friend, Noelle, as we discuss out struggles with OCD throughout our lives and especially during the pandemic. WE also get into how OCD can effect a student and how well a student can possibly do with this debilitating illness.
