While many of our white counterparts were fighting for workplace equality, we were already working - as their maids and nannies, as well as outside the domestic sphere. Black, Latina, Asian and American Indian women suffer from discriminatory practices unique to their own sets, and their struggle for equality has been underreported for quite some time. I applaud TIME's vital look at the American woman and challenge you to explore her in all her colorful, varied glory. Brittany Packnett, HILLCREST HEIGHTS...

At the same time, Hatoyama has forced the Obama administration to reopen talks about the U.S. military presence on the Japanese island of Okinawa, just weeks after Defense Secretary Robert Gates came to Japan to announce that the issue was closed, and some marines would...
This is, of course, ostensibly a poem, not a sociological treatise. At several places in the poem, however, Alexander’s narrator allows politics—Sri Lanka’s historical tragedies—to enter and tarnish his otherwise halcyon vision of the Indian Ocean. Thus, while the sailor is “a wanderer in a zone of fluctuating kelvins,” he has “been reported as expired at Jaffna,” the largest city in Sri Lanka’s predominantly Tamil north-east and the epicenter of its civil...
