![]() Because of the bogus theory of intersectionality, Roux leverages faux victimhood and is a privileged sacred cow that can say anything she wants and get away with it. ![]() This is the very same company that jumped onboard the Marxist inspired Black Lives Matter virtue signaling bandwagon and claims to care about stopping racism and promoting diversity/inclusion.Īcademic and author Heather Macdonald from the Manhattan Institute has often remarked that white, liberal feminists are the most privileged woman in all of history. To this day, Roux has never apologized for her hideous comments, nor has Blizzard or Danuser ever apologized to the millions of WoW fans for failing to do due diligence before they hired her to write novels for them. Racist bullies are allowed free reign to ply their wicked trade as long as they are on the correct side of the political fence. Viciously disparaging white males is how you make your bones on the left. It’s considered cool and edgy on Twitter. In our sick and twisted “progressive” culture, openly hating white people is now encouraged and expected. Allen Brack, Steve Danuser, and Christie Golden not knowing about this and acting upon the knowledge. ![]() There is no excuse for Blizzard management, J. Many articles have been written about Roux’s disgraceful conduct on social media. ![]() Blizzard is doing the exact same as other corporations in trying to appease the tiny minority of mentally ill woke people on Twitter.Įven worse is that nobody in charge at Blizzard seems to care. ![]()

Anna Hibiscus lives in Africa, amazing Africa, with her mother and father, her twin baby brothers (Double and Trouble), and lots of extended family in a big white house with a beautiful garden in a compound in a city.

About the Book Anna Hibiscus lives in Africa. ![]() ![]() But she always missed writing, and turned to penning stories when she needed a breather from grad school. Over the years, Elizabeth became a film and video game composer, and even went so far as to get a doctorate in music composition. ![]() And that's kinda cool!" But after one of her teachers told her she had "too much voice" in her essays, Elizabeth took a break from creative writing to focus on not flunking English. Her passion for storytelling began around age 10, when she started writing fanfics for Sailor Moon, Sweet Valley, and Star Wars, and posted them online to discover, "Wow, people actually read my stuff.

Lee’s long-awaited novel, “Go Set a Watchman” (due out Tuesday), Atticus is a racist who once attended a Klan meeting, who says things like “The Negroes down here are still in their childhood as a people.” Or asks his daughter: “Do you want Negroes by the carload in our schools and churches and theaters? Do you want them in our world?” People went to law school and became lawyers because of Atticus. In real life, people named their children after Atticus. As indelibly played by Gregory Peck in the 1962 movie, he was the perfect man - the ideal father and a principled idealist, an enlightened, almost saintly believer in justice and fairness. We remember Atticus Finch in Harper Lee’s 1960 classic, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” as that novel’s moral conscience: kind, wise, honorable, an avatar of integrity who used his gifts as a lawyer to defend a black man falsely accused of raping a white woman in a small Alabama town filled with prejudice and hatred in the 1930s. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her desperate tries to get money to leave to the city her mother described, lead her to an arena with a gun and a scarf to mask the girl behind it.

A place where they could go and find Amani’s aunt. ![]() Her mother told her stories of a city, full of freedom and opportunities for them. Having only what she thought were her blue eyes from her father that she never knew, her mother was the only one she had. Her life seems to be closing in on her, trapping her into the hell she has always been planning to escape. Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton, reviewed by Natalie Kelly-Haigh. Thanks Natalie! ![]() ![]() ![]() Humans want guidance, he observes, and a moral code set in stone the Rauschmonstrum is aware that there is no God and, as a result, humanity lacks a “divine master.” He volunteers himself for the job, and he quickly decides to inspire a human from Nazareth named Jesus to live a morally exemplary life and lay out a moral framework for humankind. For this reason-and for the sake of “a few chuckles” on his part-the Rauschmonstrum decides to intervene in human history in order to make some kind of mark. There’s no other entity like him, and he suffers from a profound lack of purpose and direction. ![]() A supernatural being searches for meaning in the human world in this novel by LaTorre.Īs this story begins, an amorphous, inhuman being called the Rauschmonstrum has existed about as long as humanity has been on Earth-but all that time, he’s felt truly alone. ![]() ![]() ![]() COVID-19 Portal While this global health crisis continues to evolve, it can be useful to look to past pandemics to better understand how to respond today.Student Portal Britannica is the ultimate student resource for key school subjects like history, government, literature, and more.This Time in History In these videos, find out what happened this month (or any month!) in history.#WTFact Videos In #WTFact Britannica shares some of the most bizarre facts we can find. ![]() Demystified Videos In Demystified, Britannica has all the answers to your burning questions.Britannica Classics Check out these retro videos from Encyclopedia Britannica’s archives.Britannica Explains In these videos, Britannica explains a variety of topics and answers frequently asked questions. ![]() ![]() If you would like to use material from the book (other than for review purposes), prior written permission must be obtained by contacting the publisher at Thank you for your support of the author's rights. ![]() Copyright Act of 1976, the scanning, uploading, and electronic sharing of any part of this book without the permission of the publisher constitute unlawful piracy and theft of the author's intellectual property. If you’re a fan of Mark Lawrence, John Gwynne, or Brian McClellan you won’t want to miss out on this intricate, epic debut fantasy. The abby is rich, the nuns are pretty and the monster preying on them is nothing he can’t deal with. So when he hires his company out to protect an Abbess and her nunnery, it’s just another job. The Red Knight has all three, he has youth on his side, and he’s determined to turn a profit. It takes all the advantages of birth, training, and the luck of the devil to do it. ![]() But if standing and fighting is hard, leading a company of men - or worse, a company of mercenaries - against the smart, deadly creatures of the Wild is even harder. Twenty eight florins a month is nowhere near enough when a wyvern’s jaws snap shut on your helmet in the hot stink of battle, and the beast starts to rip the head from your shoulders.

Middlesex, being the modern-day Greek comic-tragedy that it is, isn't just about Cal though. (For all you med students out there who want to get technical, that means the doctor thought his pee-pee was a hoo-hoo.) Cal is born genetically male, but is raised female because his doctor thought he was a girl. This is the dilemma facing Cal Stephanides in Jeffrey Eugenides's epic novel Middlesex. When you live in a world full of gender stereotypes, what can you do to defy and redefine them? Who decided that girls should wear pink and boys should play with trucks? What if a boy wants to play with pink? Or a girl wants to wear a truck? Okay, that's not a good analogy, but you get what we mean. ![]() ArGender stereotypes are a funny thing (and by funny, we mean borderline infuriating). ![]() |
