With TJ Theater Arts’s production of Matilda: The Musical having its opening weekend this past weekend, let’s make an homage to the show: the slice of chocolate cake eaten by Bruce Bogtrotter in one of the pivotal moments of the story. Matilda tells the story of a young genius stuck with a kind teacher and oppressive principal, and TJTA’s production of the respective musical has been described as the biggest show the department has ever done.

On Mondays, we post literary and artistic works created by TJ students. Today's work is by Ebba Cha.

This piece is about about how we live in a supposedly fair world, when really it is chocked full of prejudice. It discusses how we as people are still yet to admit that flaw. Cha was inspired by the Netflix miniseries "When They See Us" to write a poem that portrayed the ironic double standards of society.

"Although I know I wasnt able to depict a full picture regarding the social justice system... my hope was to be able to deliver the fact that what seems like a thing of the past still remains to this day, even though many are taught to think that we have become a completely different society from what we were just 50 or so years ago."
