  2. “Some children lost a stable home when a parent succumbed to opioid addiction. Others were forced to stay in hotels after hurricanes or fires. Still others fled abuse or neglect.” Number of Homeless Students Rises to New High, Report Says

    Thank you, WaPo, for writing this: ‘It’s not a turkey call’: The cultural significance behind Shakira’s meme-worthy ‘tongue thing’ at the Super Bowl

  7. Spending the rest of my days explaining to people that Shakira’s “tongue flick thing” is actually called a zaghrouta and is deeply rooted in Middle Eastern culture

  8. Yes, even if Shakira maybe could’ve done better with the zaghrouta, it was still a performance that repped us. For that, and for many other reasons, we stan Shakira

  9. Shakira was all we had for the longest time. Every Middle Eastern American, especially Lebanese, pointed to Shakira as the one entertainer with massive global appeal and popularity. To have our culture and our rhythms represented up there, even in the smallest way, is massive

  10. You really have to understand how huge Shakira’s performance was for the Middle Eastern community. She had belly dancing, a mijwiz and a derbeke, performed “Ojos Asi” which was one of the few Shakira songs to have Arabic in it, did a Zaghrouta, all love on the biggest stage

    I know this Super Bowl Halftime was a huge moment for the Latinx community... ...but it was also kind of major for Middle Eastern American folks who really mostly only had Shakira to represent them in pop culture for a long time.

    Samer Kalaf: Inspire Change is a “shameless” strategy for to “pretend that they not only supported the movement to bring attention to police violence and systemic oppression all along, but that they were really the progenitors of the whole idea.”

  13. Hi just want to remind everyone here that Shakira is also Lebanese. Don't discount that, she reminded you tonight.

  14. Shakira representing Arabs for those 15 seconds is why we stan

  15. The Sabra campaign is called “This is how we mus” but clearly they didn’t do their research because they obviously don’t know what “mus” in Arabic means

    Poništi
  16. As a Middle Eastern person, I feel personally attacked by that Sabra ad. My eyes cannot unsee how they’ve ruined our food.

  17. In a way, it’s good for the Lakers to have LeBron in this moment to guide this franchise and LA through the loss of Kobe. After MJ was Kobe. After Kobe was LeBron. He understands what it means to transcend basketball and to be an all time great. Only LeBron could really do this.

  18. So after Kamala ended her candidacy, Booker and Castro called on the DNC to change the rules to include more candidates of color. The DNC didn't do it. But somehow, the DNC changed the rules for Mike Bloomberg. I'm just saying.

  19. The 2020 NBA All-Star game will pay tribute to Kobe and Gianna Bryant 🙏 💜 Team LeBron will wear No. 2 and Team Giannis will wear No. 24, their jersey numbers. 💛 Both teams will wear patches with 9 stars, representing those who lost their lives in the helicopter crash.

    In addition to being directed to detain and vet all Iranian-born travelers in the wake of Soleimani's killing, apparently CBP officers in Seattle were told to detain Lebanese and Palestinian travelers, as well as those of any nationality who had traveled to Iran or Lebanon.
