Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is a 1932 dystopian science fiction novel that satirizes the modern conditioning of society and human nature. The novel presents a futuristic world where humans are produced through artificial reproductive technology and conditioned from birth to fill certain roles based on their genetically engineered capabilities. Through its depiction of a totalitarian and hedonistic society, the novel serves as a critique and commentary on the potential negative consequences of scientific and technological progress if not balanced with human individuality and free will.
All about literature in the age of social mediamarcoadria
In the age of social media, the author becomes a zombie or ghost – the authorless voice. The audience becomes a cipher, engaged in pattern recogntion rather than reading. And new modes of literary expression take the form of aggregations of existing texts, now with a continuously shifting point of view – a form of automatic writing.

A Western education is highly Eurocentric, but pretends to be objective and universal. In particular, social sciences are lessons extracted from European historical experience on how to organized society. The false claim, embodied in the word "science", is that these are universally applicable. Shock and Awe of Western technological prowess has led to unquestioning acceptance of this claim. In turn, this has led to the attempt to shape all societies around the world on European patterns. This has caused massive harm, as these European conceptions of society are in dramatic conflict with local cultures. There is an urgent need to recognize and reject Eurocentric Social Science, and rebuild the study of diverse societies on broader intellectual bases. Islamic epistemology provides such alternative foundations, which are discussed in this set of slides

Here are two options for your paper on Brave New World
Option 1: Modern Society
Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World in 1932. Since that time, society has changed a lot. Have we moved closer to Aldous Huxley's vision or further away? Think about the rise of prescription drugs/anti-depressants (soma), the progress made in the fields of genetic engineering in both plants and animals, how society has segmented into different class systems (and the difficulty of moving up that ladder), etc. Be creative! Your essay will be graded on how well you argue your points and how much effort you put into.
Option 2: Colonialism
What does the novel have to say about the effects of colonialism? Is Huxley for or against the concept? How does Linda's experience living on the reservation mirror John's introduction to the World Government in London? Break down John's conversation with Mustapha Mond. What are the arguments each presents? How does the concept of freedom fit into each of their world views?

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
