My white boys say, "that shit you spit last year, bro

I wouldn’t even call him a person cause he’s a weird looking cat. His ears are kinda pointy, he’s got a square head. He looks kinda like he’s a alien from somewhere really. – Jay’s baby mama Erykah Badu.

The real point of this line isn’t to differentiate how people of different cultures perceive him, it’s merely to point out that people from so many different cultures do recognize him.

I think that progression of mind with the advent of a human being named Drake (laughs, smirks, crowd laughs) you know, this idea of holding onto a number 1 spot.

...le in the policy and academic community. Male scholars who are troubled by the ongoing imbalance in our field can take one concrete step that would have faster and more notable impact than any other: They can join colleagues, like the Center for Global Development’s Owen Barder and Foreign Policy’s David Rothkopf, in a pledge not to appear on programs that do not include any women, at least not without a clear, satisfying and publicly articulated explanation from the organizers.

The exact wording of Barder’s pledge, to which Rothkopf adheres as well:

At a public conference I won’t serve on a panel of two people or more unless there is at least one woman on the panel, not including the Chair.*

*Taken from Barder’s blog, where more information on the pledge can be found, including reasons for the pledge, frequently asked questions, a running list of pledgers, and how one can take the pledge.

As for the think tanks, women run the Middle East Institute, the Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution (Tamara Cofman Wittes), the Middle East Center of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the Middle East Program at the Woodrow Wilson Center, the Center for the Middle East and Africa at the U.S. Institute of Peace, the Center for Middle East Public Policy at RAND, and play key roles at the Middle East programs of the Center for a New American Security and the Atlantic Council.

...n think tanks presented more than 150 events on the Middle East that included not a single woman speaker. Fewer than one-quarter of all the speakers at the 232 events at those think tanks recorded in our newly compiled data-set were women.
