The Armed Forces and American Social Change and Unwritten Truce
Troy Mosley has written a very illuminating book entitled 'The Armed Forces and American Social Change An Unwanted Truce'. He has written a very illuminating piece of learning and history. It is a book that covers military history and society as part of a certain community of people. Troy has written a well-detailed reference book that teaches the readers how our country accepts various people and cultures throughout the years. This would make a good supplemental read for courses in Human services, History, and maybe even a counseling course.

What is the Catholic School Girls' Cinematic Universe?
Cinematic universes make up one kind of shared universe, or fictional worlds that encompass two or more independently written stories. This means that multiple literary works with their own separate plot lines and cast of characters, while they don’t overlap, happen within the same fictionalized world.

Anne Frank
Been away for a while reading many books and reviewing them. Never seems to be enough time in the day. So, one of the first books I read was the complete and unabridged 'The Diary of Anne Frank'. Who has read any of the other versions of this book for school or just interested in the history of the time. I have read many versions of this book that I could find, and I found this version of this 'autobiography' at a local bookstore on the bargain table and something told to buy. This version has each entry that Anne writes starting with 'Dear Kitty' for Anne wanted it to seem as if she were writing and talking to a friend. This is a diary of a young girl that had to grow up too fast and to try and understand all the changes that she was starting to notice about herself and all the others around her. Who really can understand these happenings along with what happening in the world at their time of living life.

Never Piss Off An Author (You Will End Up in Our Next Work!)
A cliché statement, yes, but true, nonetheless. It comes with the territory of watching this world turn (and burn) before my very eyes as well as your own, I’m sure of it. In my own case, I have felt story upon story begging me to be written as more events unfold, not merely in current events globally, but in the behind the scenes of said events. Never mind how such events may impact my own life—bigger things are at play and must be called out!

The Iron Claw Is The Best Wrestling Film of This Decade . Content Warning.
This past weekend, I decided to go to the movies with my brother. From there, we both chose to see The Iron Claw. For those unaware of the film’s plot, it details the lives and tragedies of the Von Erich wrestling family. Zac Efron stars as Kevin Von Erich, the oldest Von Erich, with Jeremy Allen White as Kerry Von Erich, Harris Dickinson as David Von Erich, Stanley Simons as Mike Von Erich, and Holt McCallany as Fritz Von Erich, the father of the Von Erich. Along with them is Lily James as Pam Adkisson and Maura Tierney as Doris Von Erich, the mother of the Von Erich.

Navigating the Storm: The Timeless Debate on India's Uniform Civil Code
William Carlos famously said, "Time is a storm in which we are all lost." This quote fits with the timing and situation with which the Uniform Civil Code has been brought up into the limelight. It seemed an impetuous and nimble idea to prompt a heated discussion about UCC. The tenor of various religious leaders and politicians changed when the "Law Commission of India" announced to enlighten itself with the advice of all people of India regarding UCC.

Justice or Discrimination
In the new year, the castigation of Indian laws vis-a-vis the laws that try to alleviate the circumstances by commiserating with women has increased. The enlightenment of this discrimination, as referred to by some people, is taking a fillip among the masses, especially in youth through socio-legal influencers such as Amish Aggarwala. There is nothing wrong with it but reverberating the same point makes the whole idea of amending the laws for better equality defunct as the people prima facie abominate the whole apparatus of the judicial system with a knee-jerk reaction. And this surely creaks the people’s trust in our independent judiciary which has made many precedents of ensuring equality.

The Elephant Man
It proved completely unnecessary for me to rewatch David Lynch's 1980 film The Elephant Man for the sake of this review, as I have seen it more times in my life than was advisable perhaps--life is short, relatively speaking, and spending your time rewatching the same film, rereading the same book, and always listening to the same songs, seems a waste. It is a film I am so intimately familiar with I can easily visualize every nuance of every scene. It is ingrained in my subconscious permanently, and the stark, often deeply horrific black-and-white images play across my closed eyelids intermittently. That world of London in the late 1880s, with its grit, dirt, soot, fog, massive poverty, dripping alleys, and sense of utter industrialized decay, echoes some aspect of my soul that knows that environment--I could elaborate upon that, but, for the sake of this review, had better refrain.
