loud burping at the dinner table and people talking a different language are just some norms that we are faced with almost on a day to day basis.

After my observations in one day

These are rules that we were taught as children and learned throughout our lives. We observe what people do and we conclude on what is a norm and what a violation in human interactions is. Norms vary throughout the world and what

Monsters Monsters are unpredicted and are made at anytime. Monsters show different actions that can affect what society acts upon them. We can see that monsters can be unfairly labeled by examining “Of Mice and Men”‚ “Born of A Man and Woman”‚ and “Monster”.

I am deeply interested in why Black women are received and portrayed as both “angry” and “strong” Black Women. It may seem inexplicable that a respected black woman educator would stamp her foot‚ jab her finger in someone’s face and scream while trying to make a point on national television‚ thereby reconfirming the notation that black women are irrationally angry.

However when the norm is intentionally used to harm or disrupt
