"A multimodal project and a series of stories told in an unconventional way as a means to make change. We must push the genre go against the grain and do things a bit differently if we are to progress."

An essay by Caty D. ENG 890 / GEOSCI 890 - Spring 2025

"I wanted to practice mindful attunement through foraging in my backyard and baking for the river. For this project, I chose my backyard as the primary foraging location because I wanted to learn more about the process of collecting my own food and recognizing the land’s character."

ENG 494 Fall 2025

Famines are not caused by agricultural failure, but are often politically manufactured by wars, empires, and mankind. Hunger has continually been used as leverage in conflicts such as Ireland, Yemen, Sudan and Gaza. Under all of these circumstances, individuals have been starved out of their homes as their food is exported, withheld, or tampered with. Hunger is rarely due to natural causes, it is often constructed by individuals who hold power and are attempting to dominate specific groups of people.
