“The history of Pride Month”

Every year, the month of June comes along and brings with it positivity in all forms. As students are released from the confines of their classrooms, warm weather sinks in, the sun sets later and laughter can be heard all around. But June beckons more than just the beginning of summer — the month is also known as Pride Month and is dedicated to celebrating Le***an, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Q***r (LGBTQ+) pride. While many are familiar with the 30-day celebration of love, identity and inclusion, it is important to recognize the deep history that is rooted in this commemoration.

“Humans of Foothill: Abbi Fleagane”

Abbi Fleagane ‘25, a senior at Foothill Technology High School (Foothill Tech), loves exploring new coffee shops and enjoying the beach; however, her main interest lies in studying medicine.

“Addiction medicine is definitely underfunded, and there are many misconceptions surrounding it. The field is dynamic and ever changing, serving a population that deserves passionate doctors and empathetic medical care, something that I want to be a part of,” Fleagane said.

“The Little Free Library: Connecting communities with literature”

A walk in the park; an evening stroll; a morning jog; regardless of what your choice of outdoor activity is, you’ve likely noticed the miniature houses of books staked into the ground. A liaison between literature and neighborhoods, “Little Free Library,” commonly known as “Book Boxes,” are boxes, sheds or houses constructed outside of homes and filled with donated books for the public use of the surrounding neighborhood. The only rule? “Take a book, return a book.”

“Romance through the decades of cinema: ‘10s and ‘20s”

The final destinations on this magical journey through classic films are the 2010s and 2020s. As we recall some of the best romance movies featured in each decade, it’s impossible to overlook all the unique facets that define popular modern-day films. With bright musicals and bold dramas, it is apparent these two eras have created incredible and ingenious productions.

The 2010s widely represent today’s society with major shifts like the rise of social media, increase in globalization and escalation of pop-music artists. Such big changes played a major role in the continuing advancements in the film industry.
