a piece by our staff writer, Tanisha Ahuja This city used to have colour. Not colours like the ones you could point at and name, but thicker.Something that’d soak into everything. It lived in the way I would walk fast, and now in thatnoise I’d make just to prove I’m still here. Those nights, however, they wouldn’t make it easy. They weren’t just empty, but also endless. Now it feels like someone turned down the saturation and they don’t want to turn it back up. I stand at the

Written by our staff media reviewer, Kei. Whenever you ask me what my favorite musical is, I will always, without a doubt, say Hadestown . I was first introduced to the 2019 production in the middle of my freshman year, where I was scrolling through Tiktok and came across a video of Reeve Carney – who played Orpheus in the original cast – singing the chorus of “Wait for Me.” I remember stopping mid-scroll and replaying the short video over and over, completely stunned. From

written by staff media reviewer, Kei I literally cannot tell you how visually stunning this film was. I was already intrigued within the first five minutes because of the allegorical trans colors in the parachute that young Owen goes under. It immediately put me in this emotional headspace of recognition before I even fully understood what this movie was intending to display. The acting was phenomenal across the board.

ICE—U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement—exists on paper as an institution meant to enforce immigration laws and deport those deemed threats to public safety . Under the Trump administration, its mission expanded aggressively into interior enforcement, turning up in cities far from any border and framing its work as part of a broader “law and order” agenda that justified increasing force and visibility.

Written By: Joan Sim Women’s fashion is not merely for glamour. It is treated as a public statement, a message issued before one has the chance to even speak.
