Welcome!

Welcome to The Culture Beat! This is an internet space for musing on the intersection of current events and culture, a place where we more critically examine why we find some things "normal" and others so, so ... foreign. Join me in discussing the cultural contexts of the fascinating, the mundane, and all things passing for news on the interwebs.

My name is Emily Hammock Mosby and I am a current graduate student pursuing a degree in Global Affairs. When not studying or working, I like to consume inordinate amounts of media and dissect them through a cultural lens. Oh, and I like long walks and cats, too.
