...Welcome back to Freaky Fictional Fridays with Vulpecula! First and foremost, I would like to apologize for being unable to post last Friday. Don’t worry, we will get back to our regularly scheduled blog! I would like to focus on chapter 13 of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. Let’s dive deeper into the theme of knowledge within this chapter. Leggo! We, human, are curious creatures who have used our curiosity to make great discoveries, and one of our greatest achievements is the Internet. On top social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat, people are able to share their life experiences. Although it can be very interesting to learn about other people’s lives, it is normal for us to begin to reflect on how we are doing; this new information about others can make us feel a whole range of emotions, such as inspired or jealous....

...which he appropriated. In a The New York Times article, writer Alexander Fury describes that Jacobs had mostly white models sport multi-colored dreadlocks in a recent show. Many on social media told him that he was stealing from black culture, but black hairstyles were not referenced in his cited inspiration - he instead credited 90's club kids (Fury). Afsun Qureshi recaps in a CNN article that Jacob defended his actions on his Instagram account, calling the claim nonsense and narrow minded. Jacobs further commented on Twitter, angered by the hypocrisy that black women are not criticized for straightening their hair, therefore comparing the appropriation of black culture to the pressure that women of color face to adhere to Eurocentric beauty standards. He later briefly apologized for his "lack of sensitivity" but did not apologize to black women in particular (Qureshi). This lack of specificity shows that Jacobs only meant to appease the public and not to reconcile with the community he offended. While most people unknowingly appropriate cultures, users of social media can easily call out celebrities due to their fame and platform and can have a positive or negative influence on the issue. In a recent video “Don’t Cash Crop on My Cornrows” actress Amandla Stenberg, from The Hunger Games, speaks out on the appropriation of African American culture in the U.S: "What would America be like if we love black people as much as we love black culture?" (4:15). White women can sport afros...

In the end, we are our choices. —Jeff Bezos, commencement speech at Princeton University, May 30, 2010 Prologue In the early 1970s, an industrious advertising executive named Julie Ray became fascinated with an unconventional public-school program for gifted children in Houston, Texas. Her son was among the first students enrolled in what would later be called the Vanguard program, which stoked creativity and independence in its students and nurtured expansive, outside-the-box thinking. Ray grew so enamored with the curriculum and the community of enthusiastic teachers and parents that she set out to research similar schools around the state with an eye toward writing a book about...
