A Voice, Crying in the Wilderness...

So, I'm presenting Homi Bhabha's "The Commitment to Theory." Homi Bhabha is a man from India who recognized the lasting and all-consuming cultural effects the British left on India. I am not a historian, but from reading Bhabha, I figure that the British invaded and claimed India at some point in time and then forced English and Christianity on an Hindu culture. The missionaries of the time took the Hindu religion very lightly, so they could not have realized that the language barrier would cross paths with the religious barrier, but sure enough, in the end, neither the British language nor people made any sense to India. Gross misinterpretation across cultural, religious, and lingual boundaries--boundaries reinforced by Britain--caused tension. Bhabha concludes, kinda, that it's time to stop talking and thinking about it and actually do something. The thinkers have thought, the writers have wrote (written), and the voice has spoken. Prepare a way for the Queer. * * * So, I finished a few papers. One was a semi-linguistic, but in truth, it was a Postcolonial Feminist Queer take on conservative christianity mumbojumbo I found online. I did a bit of freewriting/stream of conscience writing for the LitCrit paper. Finished the Bhabha handouts. I love Bhabha. Now, all that's left for the grades is the 15-20p research for women writers and 2 tests. I think.
