Introduction

My name is Shalese and I am a senior  Women and Gender Studies major. When looking through the feminist blogs, I noticed there were a few blogs of interest to me but I ended of choosing the Ms. Magazine blog. I’ve taken a few politics courses and I enjoy looking at the current events that are taking place in today’s society, which is why I feel that this blog connects to my interest. It also couldn’t be a model because I want to focus on political issues in other countries, not just the United States. Recycling has become a big issue in my town, to the point that a large portion of the stores no longer provided plastic bags. Customers are forced to use papers bags, which barely last because they always tear, and on top of that, customers have to pay for these cheap, less durable bags.
