browniecakemix 3rd-Mar-2012 02:33 am (UTC)
maybe we wouldn't be having this problem if we'd just given more women their own damn studies like Woolf told us to a hundred years ago
quizblorg 3rd-Mar-2012 02:33 am (UTC)
Doesn't 1 out of 5 not being white more or less correspond to the ethnic make-up of the US, though?
pippa_middleton 3rd-Mar-2012 02:34 am (UTC)
Salman Rushdie looks like the kfc guy. His name should be Chicken Rushdie.

BOOK POST YAY!

I'm taking a post WWII American lit class this semester, and it's pretty much the greatest class of all time. We're reading Portnoy's Complaint by Philip Roth right now. It's...interesting.
