Dear Reader,
We are thrilled to bring you Volume 4, Issue 1 of The Onyx Review: The Interdisciplinary Research Journal at Agnes Scott College, a peer- and faculty-reviewed journal. This issue’s subjects range from English literature to political science.
The Journal Committee at the Center for Writing and Speaking at Agnes Scott College would like to offer many thanks to our director Dr. Christine Cozzens, our coordinator Imani Young Bey, and our Patricia Collins Butler Fellow, Dr. Mina Ivanova, for their continued support and guidance in the publication of this journal. We would also like to extend thanks to our current committee members Lyrik Courtney, Alex Fallon, Alice Mawi, Taelyn Reid, and Jasmyn Stamper for their respective contributions that made this volume possible. Of course, this journal would not exist without the authors and submitters, to whom we are grateful. Lastly, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to the many faculty and student reviewers who devoted their valuable time and expertise.
Happy reading!
Warmly,
Sarah Waites and Yuxin Zheng
