Absolute Wonder Woman and the Love of Love
Wonder Woman has always been in a strange, diminished position; the character has never been allowed to shine the way she could. She is in the core Trinity of DC Comics—alongside Superman and Batman—yet she is constantly relegated to the sidelines in favor of her male counterparts.

A Letter to Georgetown Student Musicians and Artists
Dear Young Stars, There is a rhythm to this place that you begin to absorb without noticing. It moves quickly, with purpose, carrying you from one obligation to the next, until even your pauses feel scheduled. Somewhere along the way, what once felt open begins to narrow, and the life you imagined for yourself starts to take on a different shape. And in that quiet shift, I wonder— Torn between the urgency of a pre-professional culture and the fervent hope to establish a creat

Wendi This semester, I have had the honor of working with Wendi in running the Indy. Throughout my time at Georgetown, there are very few people who I’ve known to have a more beautiful mastery of the written word than Wendi. In both her writing and editing, her vision of a piece’s flow is almost as musical as the many instruments she plays. As such a skilled musician and wordsmith, we have been so lucky and grateful to have had Wendi as a core party of the Indy. While I am so

To Reinvent a Show: The Evolution of HBO’s Industry
Over the course of the past six years, Industry has evolved from a raunchy, scathing critique of modern capitalism to an unrelenting, heart-pounding thriller–one which I believe to be the most electric
show on TV right now.

Love Is All Around At Alice Phoebe Lou
There was no phone in sight at the Lincoln Theatre, where amber lights cast a warm, intimate glow. Watching John Andrews & The Yawns and Alice Phoebe Lou perform, I felt like I’d been let into the inner workings of their hearts. John Andrews took the stage in a baseball cap and beat-up Converse, casually admitting he’d been watching Danny DeVito Batman clips backstage. His voice was deeply comforting, accompanied only by an acoustic guitar and electric piano he alternated bet

“Before the Whole World:” Sahra Mani’s Bread & Roses
Do you remember where you were when you heard that U.S. troops had withdrawn from Afghanistan in 2021? I recall that moment in my high school civics class, arguing against my male peers that we simply could not expect to invade a country, prop up its government for twenty years, and then leave without expecting that system to stand without our aid.

Review: Cornelia Murr at Pearl Street Warehouse on March 13
This story starts with Storey Littleton. She has both hands occupied tuning her guitar to the different keys of each song, and in the midst of her plucking, I am encapsulated by her dress. A dress that mirrors the sun hitting the stained glass of Dahlgren Chapel with each sway to the beat of the melody and a statement piece I would definitely consider an “insane find” at the local thrift.
