So Birth Citizenship Isn’t Enough Anymore?
America—the land of the free and the soil of opportunity—the melting pot that blends together various cultures and lifestyles—-or at least that’s what it prides itself to be. America has always promoted the values and principles of liberty, justice, and inclusion—but the country hasn’t always been consistent in practicing what it preaches. America’s reputation in […]
MetLife Stadium World Cup Travel Preparations Are Setting Up A Disaster
The 2026 North America World Cup is an event that has only grown more controversial as the months close in. The political actions of the Trump administration have soured much of whatever hype the event previously had, especially amongst the sports Latino audiences. However, despite the number of tickets already being refunded, many are still […]
Africa’s Trajectory Of Becoming A Global Music Giant Should Have Been Seen A Mile Away
Many countries have had a fair share of artists dominating the music industry; that said, countries within Africa have had a hard time entering the limelight. That isn’t to say African artists haven’t had any influence within the music industry. As a matter of fact, African musical influences can be found in various music genres […]
Women’s Final Four Set
Talk about consistency. Not just one, or two—but all of the top-seeded teams from each region advanced to this year’s final four—and what’s even more remarkable is that they’re the exact same four teams from last year’s final four.

While children typically begin to learn […]
Mediterranean Diets For The Win!
It’s imperative that we start taking a good look at the types of food we’re consuming—and I say that confidently, even at the age of 23. A lot of the junk food that gives us a short-lived burst of euphoria often makes us feel like crap afterwards and offers little-to-no nutritional benefits. A lot of […]
The Last Great American Classic
When we think of classic American literature, our brains often go back in time and explore the libraries of literature wonderful authors have produced. Many of these classics we know and love, such as The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald or Moby Dick by Herman Melville were produced over a hundred years ago, but […]
No Kings, No Trump
For almost a year now, individuals across the nation have joined together to protest the current presidential administration and its actions. We have seen rallies in the street of people fighting to make change within our country and alter the trajectory of America’s future. Named the “No Kings Movement,” these protests exist in several cities […]
Kid Cudi is Far Too Underrated
Is it just me, or is everyone waiting for their invitation to Honolulu just to—according to Kid Cudi, get that Maui Wowie? To be honest, I had no idea what that meant at first, but after tying together some context clues and common sense, I think I can confidently say that I know exactly what […]
