    1. We can’t be the Buccaneers because pirates supportedviolence and discrimination against women” (49). Here, violence anddiscrimination are a joke, and located in the past.

      I would argue that the joke that she makes is not at the fact that she is minimizing discrimination against women but rather the irony behind they school's perforative activism while actively silencing authors like Maya Angelou who actively speak out against SA.

    2. imposing a happy ending onthe painful narrative

      The end does not suggest happiness, for many of the issues are still unresolved, it gives readers hope.

Shows a reality that exist for many women. (Talk about the woman who carried her matres to graduation).

    1. Corresponding to the idea of "separate spheres" for women and men in society, the idea that women were, by their nature, sickly, complemented the idea that men were robust, aggressive, healthy and thus naturally predisposed to the harsh, competitive world of work while women were more suited to the quiet, sanctified life of the home.

    1. Estimates indicate that roughly 58 to 76 percent of the variance in the liability to AN,23,24 and 54 to 83 percent of the variance in the liability to BN25,26 can be accounted for by genetic factors. Although the confidence intervals on these estimates are wide, consistent findings across studies support moderate heritability of these traits.

      so percentages vary but these results show that genetics do play a factor in this, specially complaring faternal twins to identical ones

    2. However, given that first-degree relatives share both genes and environments, these studies cannot differentiate genetic versus environmental causes for the observed familiality

      families share environment and genes they need to single out genes > twin studies

    3. The authors speculated that these findings may reflect an activation of etiologic genes during puberty.

      Genetic factors , these activate during puberty. 11 year old twins little concern for weight, 17 yr old twins more "variance in attitudes" meaning that before they all where consistently no concern but now that their older there is more ppl that are concerned about weight.

      This was used to make the boys look threatening to the public.

    3. Shoemaker replied that the effect of changing the hair style would be to make it difficult for prosecution witnesses to identify them in connection with their alleged participation in a riot last August 2

      This shows up in the play Zoot Suiter, this was an actual event

    1. Some said it stemmed from an attack on military employees allegedly orchestrated by Mexican American gang members known at the time as pachucos. Others insisted it was an effort by Los Angeles police to distract people from the trial of a fellow officer. One thing is clear: Racist newspaper reports, including many in the Los Angeles Times, viewed the victims, not the military men, as the problem.

      The media had its own way of making minority groups into scapegoats. White men used their title of war veterans to protect them from their discriminatory crimes.

    2. The young people hadn’t actually broken any laws, Pagán said, but instead had done things such as refusing to cede a sidewalk to a white person.

      They didn't even cause trouble they just didn't give in to the racist social norms that existed at the time.

    1. When memes or the subjects of a meme are used for commercial purposes without permission, the meme creator may sue, as the effect of the commercial use on the market value of the original meme usually prevents a finding of fair use. In 2013, the owners of the cats featured in the “Nyan Cat” and “Keyboard Cat” memes won a lawsuit against Warner Bros. and 5th Cell Media for respectively distributing and producing a video game using images of their cats.

      I think this points out that using memes to make profit out of them without giving credit to the creator is when it becomes a form of exploitation.

    2. “[m]utating memes, because of their unique characteristics, are more like ideas,” thus unprotected under copyright. Dawkins acknowledged this point in 2013 when he observed that internet memes, unlike genes, were actively manipulated by human creativity to appear different from the original.

      A meme becomes its own work because it utilizes parts of a separate original work but it creates a totally different message with a different purpose. A meme is used in a way to share humor and ideas with others without making money out of it, which makes it something that belongs to the public and not a specific person.

    1. He had nothing to do with the bombing; he had committed suicide.

      I think this highlights the dangers of doxxing people without having enough evidence to make sure these people are the ones that commited the crime. In this example they harmed someone who was completely innocent.

    2. Doxxing, she believed, was an effective way to make people think twice about being so bold with their racism.

      I am on board with people being held accountable for their words and acts of discrimination like the march in Charlottesville, but what scares me about doxxing is that racist people will just go back to hiding their racism, makes me wonder if there's anything we can do to have these people change their way of thinking

    1. The dominant body language of the sphinx, meanwhile - clawing her way up the hero's chest - has been seen to express fears of the growing political and cultural influence of women in mid-19th-century France.
