We wish to speak to the dead. Mom? Dad? Are you there? You passed on the red lantern to light my way through life without you two. I wear my dad’s shirt and my mother’s robe, your smells intertwine and rush into my nose. I’ve never felt more at peace, more at home. The broom behind me are my responsibilities as the oldest of my generation. No one is there to guide me. My life’s in my own hands, and for the first time, I am free. I have become obsessed with the idea of freedom. My door is cracked open to free the demons trapped in my room. I punched a hole in the wall to free the Titans that live in them. Mom? Dad? I’m ready to set you free.

If I Can Dream
Elvis Presley a name that is known all over the world. Over 20 million people over the last 35 years that have visited Graceland Elvis' home and the other millions who have not, the name brings to them a thought of someone who was more than just a singer/entertainer. To us fans, the name Elvis Presley is a man who went for a dream and eventually achieved it. From his humble beginning, to his untimely death, Elvis gave the world the gift of not only his voice, but his story.

The Day 'The Simpsons' Died
If you ask many people what their favourite animated series is, some will say South Park, others will say Family Guy, but for most who grew up in the 90s, the answer will undoubtedly be The Simpsons. A concept that first debuted as animated shorts on The Tracy Ullman Show in 1987, The Simpsons has become the most recognisable television family in history, as well as one of the longest running TV shows ever. You don't get to that point by being mediocre, though; you get there by being innovative and truly remarkable in every way, and that's absolutely what The Simpsons was; I place emphasis on the was.

Marshall Review
Thurgood Marshall, the late supreme court justice, influenced the tides of history. In Marshall, Chadwick Boseman steps into these impossibly large shoes, taking the role of Marshall in the eponymous film. Marshall presents Connecticut v. Joseph Spell, a case in which New York lawyer and NAACP heavy hitter Thurgood Marshall is sent to Bridgeport, Connecticut to defend a man accused of murder. Not being legally permitted to practice law in Connecticut, Marshall is forced to team up with Sam Friedman — an insurance claims lawyer who was roped into the case against his will. Not only is the case a fight in the battle for racial equality with the life of a man in the balance but the very future of the NAACP, who are running low on funds and in desperate need of a public win is also in jeopardy.
