Americanisms reboot

It was a long (and in many ways discouraging) fall and winter but I've decided to re-start this blog, mostly for reasons of my own personal development and/or sanity. Like Stringer Bell changing the colors of the caps, I've changed the layout just so you know this is real and I'm back in the game.

Same content format as before: explorations of political culture. I'm going to write more about relevant pieces of pop culture and the media's relationship to citizenship, too. And I'm going to focus a bit more concretely on actual policy debates like on immigration, civil liberties, civil rights, and social justice. So let's do this.
