Letters Home: Through the Lens of Empowerment - PART II (video) | The Outsider News Before embarking on this trip to Kenya, Julian wrote a report on poaching. This gave him a solid understanding of the complexities of killing animals for fun and black market body parts. “Hundreds of thousands of animals die from poaching every year,” Julian wrote, “Poaching has been illegal since the 20th century. Poachers poach animals for their parts then leave them to rot, they make nature unbalanced, and they reduce the animal population.” One reason poaching is pitiless is that they sell animal body parts from animals -- specifically raccoons, bears, big cats, rhinos, elephants and alligators. Our first stop on our ecotourism journey was Treetops Hotel, a game-viewing lodge on stilts located in the Aberdare National Park. It is mind-boggling that still today, over 33,000 elephants are killed every year for ivory, according to Save The Elephants. From there, we hooked up with Jason and Kirsten from the Pundas Milias Nakuru camp. Julian had his hands on my cameras as much as I did!
We Are the World Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. La chanson sort le 7 mars 1985, comme seul single de l'album et devient un succès commercial international.

Letters Home: Through the Lens of Empowerment (video) | The Outsider News What started out as a seed project, "Empowering Kenyan Girls Through the Art of Photography," turned out to be an inspirational journey of uplifting encounters, all recorded on the photo-sensitive diodes of our digital media cards. Lions and change agents and warriors, oh my! The following images and living photos are dedicated to reliving the dream and "meeting" the people & wildlife that won our hearts and changed our minds. The first 10 days of our stay at Daraja were eye opening to say the least! These girls, having no means to continue their education, found themselves in an intensive 4-year program that is grooming them to become future leaders in their communities and the world at large. The tribes they came from often had a history of conflict and war, so they were also taught the values of conflict resolution, tolerance for differences and team-work as part of their studies. “For the first class, the focus was to use the camera to empower both the model and the photographer.

Alternative hip hop Alternative hip hop (also known as alternative rap) is a subgenre of hip hop music that encompasses the wide range of styles of hip hop that have not become identified as mainstream. Allmusic defines it as follows: Alternative rap refers to hip hop groups that tend not to conform to any of the traditional stereotypes of rap, such as gangsta, bass, hardcore, pop, and party rap. Instead, they blur genres – drawing equally from funk and rock, as well as jazz, soul, reggae, country, electronic, and even folk.[1] History[edit] Origin[edit] Mainstream decline[edit] In his 1995 book on the current state of hip hop culture, music critic Stephen Rodrick wrote that, at that time, alternative hip-hop had "drawn little more than barely concealed yawns from other rappers and urban audiences" and came to the conclusion that the subgenre was a complete failure.[5] Revival[edit] Critical and cultural reactions[edit] See also[edit] List of alternative hip hop artists References[edit] External links[edit]
Nellie Bly: Google Doodle’s 1st original song (Karen O) salutes an American original TODAY, to celebrate the life and writings of the pioneering reporter Nellie Bly, Google delivers its most artful musical Doodle ever. And in saluting the globe-trotting journalist who was a true American original, Team Google Doodle commissioned its first original song ever, tapping the sublime talents of singer-songwriter Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs (an indie trio that, we must note, puts on a great live show). Landing the lead singer of “Maps,” “Gold Lion” and “Art Star” is not only an inspired hire; it also raises the question: Given Google’s massive reach, might this home-page video turn the commissioned number,” Nellie,” into an actual hit? (It certainly gives new meaning to the term “Google Play.”) In many of her assignments, including her celebrated 72-day whirlwind trip around the world in 1889, Bly literally flew against convention of her day. “Take us all around the world” — Karen O “We wanna make something of ourselves, too.” — Karen O Happy birthday, Nellie Bly!
