Labor Week

UNITED STATES—Have you ever been embarrassed? Of course you have, all Americans have it is a part of daily life for most people. Rather it’s asking a person out on a date and being rejected, falling down or up the stairs (yes, I’ve seen it happen), or doing something that just makes you the talk of the town. Why...

UNITED STATES—Sometimes I wonder about Americans, it seems like each day some new form of technology has been invented that is supposed to make our lives easier. However, in my personal opinion it is not making our lives easier, it’s making us lazier. I heard someone praise and I mean praise the notion of not even having to go...

UNITED STATES—I thought in 2008 when Barack Obama became President of the United States was bad, I mean a Democrat was in office and in control of The White House, but it’s apparent the roles have reversed and things are more tense NOW than ever before. I mean Donald Trump is the new President and for the first time...

UNITED STATES—I have said it before there are two subjects that can cause serious issues: religion and politics. I know religion is decisive, but politics right now is even bigger. It is like the mere mention of politics gets people riled up. As much as I want to chat politics, I’ve gotten to a point in 2020, that I’m...

UNITED STATES—Getting old must be one of the most misunderstood, least explained, and purposefully ignored, aspect of universal human experience. Getting old sucks. I mean it. They say it beats the alternative, but what really is the sum of a human life? How do we evaluate which is better to have lived and endured, or worse enough to have foregone?...

UNITED STATES—For those who might be in the dark, Veterans Day is on Friday, November 11. For most Americans, it is just another federal holiday or day off, especially if you work for the government. However, it is NOT just a day off; it is a day where we should be paying tribute to our veterans, the people who...

UNITED STATES—I have to pose an honest question to you: do you get tired of social media? I feel like the world we live in nowadays is completely dictated around social media outlets like Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Tumblr, Vine, the list goes on and on. There seems to be this programmed notion that every single thing we...

UNITED STATES—Oh, how Christmas, but it can indeed be a stressful one for many Americans. Why? We attempt to do a bit more than what we need to, specifically when it comes to purchasing Christmas gifts. I will be the first to admit that I am indeed one of those individuals. I just love the notion of giving, but...

UNITED STATES—Is it sane to want to have a few hours or even a day totally to yourself? That’s a question I seem to ask myself time and time again. As Americans, we do so much on a daily basis, that just thinking about everything that has to be completed starts as soon as you get out the bed...

UNITED STATES—We have heard the conversation for the past few years about the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement in response to the countless lives of African-Americans that have been lost to police shootings. However, I want to have a conversation about the importance of ‘Saving Black Lives’ in the African-American community. This conversation is not for everyone, but for those who...
