      'Generation We'

      "Millennials are the largest generation in American history. Born between 1978 and 2000, WE are 95 million strong, compared to the 78 million Baby Boomers. WE are politically, socially, and philosophically independent, and are spearheading a period of sweeping change in America and around the world. The new book, Generation We, explains the emerging power of our Millennial Generation, and shows how WE (and older people who think the way WE do) are poised to change our nation and our world for the better."

      An interview with Nazila, female rapper from Iran

      A female rapper talking about her life in Iran.


      Iran is a country with more than one face. the dominant face in the west is the one we see in our media. I'm not going to mention any examples because I assume you're to come up with those by yourself. Here's another - and less seen - face of Iran: a female rapper. She speaks about her life, her work and of course she spits a few bars together wit her back up MC. Pay your respect...
