Harlem PoP: a pop-up shop in Harlem
I'm a big fan of the pop-up shop. They always have the coolest stuff in high concentration and its sooo "limited time" that you get convinced to purchase something for an absurdly high price. That's why I will definitely try to make a stop by Harlem PoP and will also definitely conveniently forget all of [...]

Did French Vogue just revisit blackface?
The October Issue of French Vogue features an entire shoot of a pale-skinned, blond haired model… not unusual for any fashion magazine, right? The unusual (at least for 2009) part is that the model is painted brown. I'm not talking had-a-bad-fake-bake brown. I'm talking I-was-born-in-Nigeria-to-Nigerian-parents brown.
At first glance I would just assume this girl [...]

By the People; HBO documentary about the election of Obama

You can dispute many things about President Obama, but looking back you can't dispute that his candidacy and the 2008 elections were a revolution in that they involved a large and diverse cross section of people and introduced a whole [...]

Ohh weee…I'm not even into sports and I'm buying this issue. There are six different covers. Here are four of them:
