Bisexuality is the new black

By Emma Wenninger · Thursday, Sept. 18,2014 1:16 p.m.

“Orange is the New Black” has been slowly revolutionizing female presence in the media, but I don’t think one of the writers of the show, Lauren Morelli, expected it to change her life so drastically.Morelli realized she was gay in 2012, according to CNN, but it wasn’t until she worked on the show that she finally decided to come out and start dating Samira Wiley, the breakout actress of last season, who’s turn as Poussey, accent à droite, stole the hearts of millions.

Forgetting history, hurting ourselves

By Emma Wenninger · Tuesday, Sept. 16,2014 1:54 p.m.

Tragedy is often lost on us the more we move away from an event in time. But by forgetting the solemnity of events, we dishonor those who suffered.By now everyone and their grandmother has heard about Urban Outfitters’ unfortunate clothing mishap.The company sold a $130 “vintage” Kent State sweatshirt covered in what looked like bloodstains.
