Book Review: Shattering Myths About Women and Evolution
October 6, 2023 by Emily Cataneo
Republished with Permission: The Roosevelt Island Daily News
Poet and scientist Cat Bohannon wants you to try this thought experiment: Picture an alternate opening of Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 classic movie “2001: A Space Odyssey.” The original begins with the iconic (and much parodied) scene in which a band of ape-like early humans beats a rival tribe into…

For Mesquita, the OURS model, which invites us to look “outward, rather than inward” when it comes to emotion, is a more appropriate schema than the long-vaunted MINE model. She maintains that we must let go of our belief that emotions happen mainly inside a person, and instead look to emotions as culturally constructed experiences that happen between people, vary between cultures, and look different depending on cultural and social context.

"La Antártida fue una vez una tierra de fuego y no de hielo" by BY EMILY CATANEO via NYT en Español https://ift.tt/3Hoainv
0 notes
White women were and continue to be portrayed as the group that needs protection from “savage” black people. This was a common narrative despite white women’s active participation in stereotyping and disenfranchising black people, most commonly black men. The movie even hints at white women’s participation in the Klu Klux Klan as they helped make the attire that the KKK wore. As I watched the scene where white women were excited to assist the KKK, it reminded me how white women founded their own WKKK a little while after. Emily Cataneo wrote the article, “A Brief History of the Women’s KKK” where she discussed how white women used different tactics to maintain white power and privilege. While they did not perform lynchings, they used their jobs as a means of hindering progress for black people in whatever capacity they could.

WiHM (WOMEN IN HORROR MONTH)
February is home to a few important things worth celebrating: Black History Month, my birthday (I turn 39 this year, in case you were wondering), and Women in Horror Month. WiHM for short. February is a strange month, no doubt. Sometimes it has 29 days, and sometimes 28. The word is even difficult to say: Feb-ru-ary (not like brewery, despite how some pronounce it) and it’s often misspelled with…
