Just issues, news, and other stuff that matters to you

âWhen they go low, we go high.â
Michelle Obama shared one of her mottos as Americaâs first black FLOTUS during her[powerful speech] at the Democratic National Convention last night. Sure, the quote was ostensibly about the Democratic party and a[jab] at Donald Trump and the GOP, but it also defines much of Michelleâs legacy as a first lady. Back in 2009, FLOTUS was [criticized] for wearing a dress that showed her toned arms in her official first lady photo. She didnât cave in by covering up. Instead, Michelle continues to bare her arms and has even shared her [full-body workout]. When[confronted] by a protester while giving a speech, she didnât get mad. She calmly de-escalated, something she has had to do as a prominent black woman lest she be accused of being â[too loud or too angry or too emasculating].â While delivering a commencement speech last year at a historically black college, Michelle [addressed] how it felt to hear how people might talk about her as a black woman while her husband was on the campaign trail. To watch how Michelle has risen above criticism that was meant to make her feel inferior for these past seven years should serve as an example to us all. In honor of her unapologetic ways, hereâs â[Sorry],â by Beyoncé. â[Darian Symoné Harvin]

THE READ
[What Justin Bieber's New Male Fans Tell Us About the Modern Man]
by Alana Hope Levinson
The boys are up in the nosebleeds when Gabe gets a phone call. He gestures to Sam and Will, and the three men start to mobilize as if they are summoned by God. Something about getting into a suite. Apparently, Girls of Interest are there. Ja Rule is allegedly also present. Most importantly: Justin Bieber will be closer.
The show is about to start at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, but they decide to risk it. Suddenly, they are running, and Iâm behind them. All three are generic-looking white guys wearing exclusive Purpose Tour t-shirts, which they got in advance from a pop-up shop in SoHo.
âYou didnât know about the pop-up shop?â Will asks in disbelief after I admit to not having heard of it. âAnd you call yourself a fan,â Sam chides flirtatiously. As a female reporter, itâs common for men I interview to interrogate my qualifications. I just never imagined Iâd one day be in a dick-measuring contest with straight guys in their twenties over [Justin Bieber]. [Read more]
