On this blog I really want to talk about a particular free write we did in class. It really meant a lot to me and I actually enjoyed writing the little bit that I did. I feel like what I wrote in the few minutes that we had was fairly well written and I would very much appreciate some feedback on it just to better my own writing. PLEASE comment and let me know what I can fix! Anything from grammatical errors to changing the language that it is written in.

"Everywhere you look pop-culture is trying to mold society's mind into what it sees fit. Billboards with little-clothed, skinny, blonde women. Magazines advertising makeup to young women to make them look beautiful. Television to tell young men they are not built enough. Most of society goes about their everyday lives unbeknownst to the leech living inside their head. Telling them what to do, how to act and what to wear. A select few rise above and think for themselves. Immanuel Kant, a famous philosopher, once referred to thinking for oneself as Enlightenment. He described Enlightenment as being something only for the strong-willed. Kant expressed his hopes that someday society will become Enlightened as a whole and come out from under the shadow of pop-culture."

I just recently studied this topic in my Philosophy class and I think that that is what inspired me to write something that I thought was meaningful. Have a good day girls!
