Relationship between “unconscious bias,” racism, and structural inequalities
The brain phenomenon known as “unconscious bias” has been widely used to justify different forms of prejudice and discrimination through stereotypes. In fact, it is important to highlight that this “unconscious” is completely related to the ways in which social structures are perceived that lead to these discriminatory attitudes.

Is Classroom education the best possible way to provide education or is it harmful?
This has now been a common discussion regarding education systems. Several questions have rosed like “ it is a kind of forceful education, it doesn’t provide enough independence to express the feelings, questions, ideas of one neither does it provide a liberal environment to express a child/student s’ inner thoughts”. Well, we have no choice but to accept this because it is true. Some famous pioneers of science and technology, authors, and philosophers became the victims of classroom education, and they lost their acceptance in the classroom. Like Sir Thomas Elva Eddison, Albert Einstein and Rabindranath Tagore. And now we learn about them in schools, colleges etc. In general, there should be few criteria to provide a proper education in the classroom-

Project Stoker
Dearest reader, Thank you for taking the time to look at my lovely project here. Sadly I must inform you that this story does not have any follow-on parts planned for shortcoming release. Rather, it is the result of a mind clamouring to create, without really knowing what it does.

Gladiator II: A Return to the Sands of the Colosseum!
In the distant yet somehow close year of 2000, Gladiator burst into cinemas like a storm, earning box office glory and a rain of Oscars while solidifying Russell Crowe’s career. Ridley Scott managed to enthrall audiences with the epic tale of Maximus Decimus Meridius. The film’s monumental success resurrected the peplum genre, leading to a cascade of sword-and-sandal films such as Troy, Alexander, 300, and King Arthur. Even video games weren’t left untouched, with Shadow of Rome and the now-iconic God of War taking up the gladiatorial torch.

Blitz
Introduction A couple of weeks ago, I found out that I got AppleTV+ with my bank account. I have used it to watch a few things but two weeks ago my friend Les saw it at the cinema and told us how good it was. I saw it was on AppleTV+ and, though it is not my normal thing, decided to watch it. Some of the actors and the writer/director Steve McQueen drew me to it.

The Utopian Concept of Gender Equity
There is a thin line of disparity between self-respect and arrogance that most people err in their lifetimes and cannot distinguish when the time arrives. I wonder how Indian society finds it appalling for women to be assertive and bold in their stance as they try to voice out their opinions on what they believe in. While I respect our culture of virtue, values and morality, it is baffling how patriarchal our society is, as it still perceives women through the fragile glass lens of being demure, nurturing, soft and family-oriented while she is working and expects her to be silent in her stance when men of the house are talking.

The Unreal of Preservation
How can one think of preservation in terms of what is real? I think this while sitting in the main reading room of the Abbot Library at the University at Buffalo. I had been meaning to come to this library for some time after seeing a picture of it. Books are a passion of mine and thus so are the repositories of knowledge that we simply call libraries. Gone, it seems however, are the days of the beautiful library. Filled with grandeur and craftsmanship to be an edifice of thought itself imbued in structure. A space in which one can think, connected to the history of Mankind. A space that could anthropologically be called a place; that is, imbued with history, emotion, tradition. I could just as easily now be writing of the strangeness I experienced walking through the very modern, yet not all unpleasant, 39th Street Stavros Niarchos Public Library in New York City that felt the need to display photographs of the world’s most beautiful libraries on their walls. A strange display of the past in a space in which the past is abandoned, if only preserved within the books themselves, and yet, how real is the copy of Flaubert’s Madame Bovary or Joyce’s Ulysses that is printed in 1994, covered in its protective plastic laminate? In fact, the main 5th Avenue library that is imbued with history and beauty has lost its practical purpose and has become a museum that is its own relic.
