40Th Year, Issue No. 2 December 15, 2017 Sherwood High School 300 Olney-Sandy Spring Road, Sandy Spring, MD 20860 www.thewarrioronline.com 40th Year, Issue No. 2 December 15, 2017 Inside:Warrior News: 1-4, Features: 5-7, Guns in America: 8-9, Humor: 10-11, Spotlight: 12-13, Opinions: 14-17, Wondering Warrior: 18, Entertainment: 19-21 Sports: 22-24 by Kimberly Greulich ‘18 Sherwood has a plethora of clubs, from academ- ic clubs like the Chemistry club and Eco-Sherwood, to political and social activism clubs like the Young Dem- ocrats/Republicans and Amnesty International. It’s part of what makes Sherwood such a community – it has a place for every kind of person to feel included and involved. But what does the school actually do for these clubs? Recently, The X-STEM Club had to find a way to raise money to attend a STEM Convention in Washington D.C. They chose fundraising this time, and worked with Chipotle to raise money, but that was not how they always accomplished things. “Because any projects we do, all the money comes straight from Mrs. Orange,” explained the X-STEM Club president, senior Alexander Richman, about science teacher and club sponsor Kristina Orange. “So, it’s nice to give her money back.” School clubs seem to have very limited options in gaining the funding they need to participate in educa- tional and interesting activities: fundraising, or paying for it themselves. Neither the school nor MCPS offers financial assistance. “Clubs have to be self-sufficient,” said Principal Bill Gregory. “School funds don’t go to support clubs; school funds go to support big things in the school.” see CLUBS, pg. 3 Illustration by Natalie Murray ‘18 MCPS Approves Calendar for 2018-2019 Sexual Assault Cases Build by Mallory Carlson ‘19 days of vacation. sional day in between semesters.

  • Taking Down Trumpism from Africa: Delegitimation, Not Collaboration, Please Patrick Bond 9 Feb 2017
    Taking down Trumpism from Africa: Delegitimation, not collaboration, please Patrick Bond 9 Feb 2017 In the US there are already effective Trump boycotts seeking to delegitimise his political agenda. Internationally, protesters will be out wherever he goes. And from Africa, there are sound arguments to play a catalytic role, mainly because the most serious threat to humanity and environment is Trump’s climate change denialism. Consider two contrasting strategies to deal with the latest mutation of US imperialism: we should protest Donald Trump and Trumpism at every opportunity as a way to contribute to the unity of the world’s oppressed people, and now more urgently link our intersectional struggles; or we should somehow take advantage of his presidency to promote the interests of the ‘left’ or the ‘Global South’ where there is overlap in weakening Washington’s grip (such as in questioning exploitative world trading regimes). The latter position is now rare indeed, although before the election Hillary Clinton’s commitment to militaristic neoliberalism generated so much opposition that to some, the anticipated ‘paleo-conservatism’ of an isolationist-minded Trump appeared attractive. One international analyst of great reknown, Boris Kagarlitsky, makes this same argument this week largely because Trump is questioning pro-corporate ‘free trade’ deals. But the argument for selective cooperation with Trump was best articulated in Pambazuka as part of a series of otherwise compelling reflections by the Ugandan writer and former South Centre director Yash Tandon. Tandon might re-examine the ‘space’ he can ‘seize’ with Trump, the ‘fraud’ Since more than any other individual Tandon helped make the 1999 Seattle and Cancun World Trade Organisation summits a profound disaster for world elites, I take him very seriously.

  • From Shadow Citizens to Teflon Stars
    From shadow citizens to teflon stars cultural responses to the digital actor L i s a B o d e A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2004 School of Theatre, Film and Dance University of New South Wales Abstract This thesis examines an intermittent uncanniness that emerges in cultural responses to new image technologies, most recently in some impressions of the digital actor. The history of image technologies is punctuated by moments of fleeting strangeness: from Maxim Gorky’s reading of the cinematographic image in terms of “cursed grey shadows,” to recent renderings of the computer-generated cast of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within as silicon-skinned mannequins. It is not merely the image’s unfamiliar and new aesthetics that render it uncanny. Rather, the image is received within a cultural framework where its perceived strangeness speaks allegorically of what it means to be human at that historical moment. In various ways Walter Benjamin, Anson Rabinbach and N. Katherine Hayles have claimed that the notion and the experience of “being human” is continuously transformed through processes related to different stages of modernity including rational thought, industrialisation, urbanisation, media and technology. In elaborating this argument, each of the four chapters is organized around the elucidation of a particular motif: “dummy,” “siren,” “doppelgänger” and “resurrection.” These motifs circulate through discourses on different categories of digital actor, from those conceived without physical referents to those that are created as digital likenesses of living or dead celebrities. These cultural responses suggest that even while writers on the digital actor are speculating about the future, they are engaging with ideas about life, death and identity that are very old and very ambivalent.

Recent queerbaiting research has focused almost exclusively on television, leaving gaps in the ways queer representation is negotiated in other media forms.
