Libya: Stop Arbitrary Arrests of Black Africans
Over the past week security forces newly operating in neighborhoods around the capital, staffed mostly by armed young men, have conducted mass arrests of migrant workers from other African countries such as Chad, Sudan, Niger, and Mali, holding them in makeshift detention facilities, including a school and a soccer club. Human Rights Watch visited two such facilities and one prison, where the majority of African detainees interviewed claimed to be migrant workers detained simply because of their nationality and that they were not pro-Gaddafi mercenaries. Prior to the uprising, between 1 and 2 million African migrant workers were in Libya.

Image: Five women, some of whom are visibly of color, stand in the middle of a wet street. Their clothes are jewel-toned; their jewelry is large; their heels are platform; and their vibe is one of sisterhood. The woman on the far left is wearing a sheer blue top over a blue bra with a fuschia skirt, yellow heels, and a chunky red necklace. The woman next to her is wearing a tight turquoise dress with orange heels. The woman in the middle is wearing bright red lipstick, turquoise heels, a yellow jacket over a short black dress, and gold jewelry that includes a watch I can probably see from Texas. The woman on her right is wearing a blue maxi dress with a shock of red at the bottom; she is wearing turquoise bangles and beads and purple suede platform heels. The woman on the far right is wearing a short red pleated silk dress with blue and purple bangles and turquoise and white heels.
And I am mostly reblogging as a GPOY because the lady in the middle is a DEAD FUCKING RINGER for ME!
ETA: I edited the H out of this post to include info I learned from Gabifresh.com—Gabi styled the shoot—but my internet effed up. Anyway, Gabi, we look just alike, so call me if you want to do a creepy twins-from-the-Shining shoot. xoxo
Wait the girl farthest on the right is my friend Misha! Yes she’s doing big things love it!!

Lykki Li - I Follow Rivers
This video captures the song perfectly.
Oh, I beg you, can I follow
Oh, I ask you, why not always
Be the ocean, where I unravel
Be my only, be the water and I’m wading
You’re my river running high, run deep run wild
Meanwhile, In Indonesia of the Day: A viral video featuring an active-duty Indonesian policeman doing an adorable dance to “Chaiyya Chaiyya” led to threats of sanctions from 26-year-old Norman Kamaru’s superiors.
However, after significant public criticism, it was decided that Kamaru’s punishment should fit his crime (see below).
I’m in love! He is so adorable
This is an instant reblog. love him
