Kallipolitan Fashion Week

23/2/2015

 
By Osvaldo Guillermo Turco

Fashion is an expansive and accessible medium that impacts society in many artful ways.  Often portrayed as a field for the vain, fashion is not given enough credit as an art and not enough credit regarding to its impact on art.

Luiz Suárez V. The World

22/2/2015

 
By Ahmed Latif 

Look who is back, if it isn’t the number one villain in all of the cyber sphere.  Luis Suárez may not hold the same name recognition as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but my man is known.  Suárez became infamous even to the casual soccer fan during the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil last summer when he bit another player.  Suárez, who plays for Uruguay and now Barcelona, received more criticism and vilification than players who in the past had drug or domestic abuse convictions.  But Suárez is a respected philanthrope, a beloved husband and father, and gives back far more than many other stars of the same calibre.

In The Name...

21/2/2015

 
By Anders Douglas-Svensson

For those who do not know, the football team from Washington D.C. possesses a nickname that comes from an offensive and racially derogatory term given to Native Americans centuries ago.  A name so offensive and hateful I refuse to use it in this article, I refuse to inform one more person on the terminology of hate.  So what is in that name, it’s just a football team?  In that name is centuries of hate, violence, and persecution from ugly chapters of history that we cannot seem to close.  In that name is generations of pain and suffering.  In that name is a word trying to deprive a human of their very humanity, to treat a people as though they were less human than a privileged few or a more trivial brand of humanity.
