ABSTRACT:\ This essay, which merges the boundaries between academic\ and creative writing, looks at how Gerwig{\textquoteright}s film adaptation of Little\ Women leaves room for Jo{\textquoteright}s queerness through the figure\ of the noble\ artist. At the heart of this mixing of adaptation, gender, and sexuality\ with an important memoir on art-as-activism is the question: What\ does it mean to be an artist? And, more importantly, what\ does it mean\ for queer female artists to see themselves on screen?\

ABSTRACT: In this brief article, I argue that the root cause of sexual violence\ in Jay Asher{\textquoteright}s Thirteen Reasons Why is toxic masculinity. To support\ this argument, I discuss relative concepts and\ definitions, gender\ in literature, the snowball effect metaphor, and educational implications.

ABSTRACT: This paper provides a postmodern reading of Milo{\v s} Forman{\textquoteright}s One Flew Over the Cuckoo{\textquoteright}s Nest and Spike Lee{\textquoteright}s Do the Right Thing and the intertextual doubles expressed through depictions of disability, masculinity, and race. Drawing upon the scholarship of Jay Dolmage, Gordon Slethaug, and Vershawn Ashanti Young, I discuss how disability is used in these films as a prop for socio-economic issues. Unpacking the intertextual doubling of disability as {\textquoteleft}problem space,{\textquoteright} gender performance, and death metaphor illuminates how these films employ disability myths to explore issues of historical and cultural tension. The disability myths of isolation, social ill, internal flaw, ethical test, and enactment continue to actively stereotype people with disabilities and use their bodies as metaphors for violence.\
