Peace of the Blogosphere. Commentary on conflict in Africa and U.S. politics. Remembering Libya: A Year Later. February 15, 2012. One year ago today, protests. Broke out in Libya. The sitting ruler at the time, Muammar Qaddafi, responded to the popular discontent with violence on a scale and trajectory that had not yet been witnessed during the Arab Spring. On February 23 — nine days after the protests first began — it was estimated that Qaddafi’s attacks had killed. The latter came just days after the A...

Most Dinka boys and girls don’t cry when the local sorcerer takes a red-hot knife to their dark faces. If they wince or cry or react to the pain they will lose face in the community, so it’s best to sit through the process in peace. In a rugged display of courage to the tribe. Members that choose not to permanently scar themsel...

I love it thinly coating my entire body, gathering greater density in the crevice between my nose and sunglasses, clinging to my Burts Beeswax-covered lips. But how do you achieve this ‘look? While we haven’t yet had a chance to read through the hundreds of surveys (combined with those from Police Primary, we have about 450), we hope that the children’s responses will help us to understand...But what ...

Monday, September 5, 2011. Future of Uganda’s Educational System. With a 21.4% inflation rate in the last year, Uganda’s educational system has been forced to alter their fees accordingly. What does this mean for the students attending these schools? In the last 20 years, education has reached more Ugandans than ever before, but with the additional increase in living expenses and educational fees, what does this mean for students now? Will more children be held back to help their family at home? Future o...
