In the early 2000s, Brandy Melville gained traction because of its breezy, coquette-style clothing. Soon, the aesthetic turned into a stamp of approval used to brand the haves and the have-nots; the haves being skinny white girls and the have-nots being anyone of a minority or non-conventional body type. HBO’s newest documentary “Brandy Hellville & This story Review: ‘Brandy Hellville & the Cult of Fast Fashion’ has been a long time coming appeared first on Washington Square News.
In 2021, economists from the University of California Berkeley and the University of Chicago conducted a study that found that job applicants with traditionally Black-sounding names were called back for an interview 10 per cent less than their white counterparts.The study developed from research conducted by professors at the University of Chicago two decades ago.

Barry Keoghan is a bit of a pleasant fashion enigma. He doesn't seem like the kinda guy who'd end up in some wild fits—which is exactly why it's all the more powerful when he swerves sartorially. And at an event in Milan earlier this week hosted by Omega, his ever-tightening embrace of the left-field showed resulted in another banger.

The former financier is in the 14th year of a 110-year prison sentence after being convicted in 2012 for selling $7 billion in fraudulent certificates of deposits in the Caribbean island of Antigua. He also was required to pay a judgment of $5.9 billion, much of which was intended to go to victims of his crimes. Among those affected by his elaborate Ponzi scheme were seven Major League Baseball...

Before Thursday’s season finale against Seattle, the Wild were set to pick 13th overall with no lottery chance at a Top 5 pick
Every time I visit the grave of my mother, Maria de la Luz Arellano Miranda, I follow the same ritual. I park on a cul de sac within Holy Sepulcher Cemetery in Orange, then wander around for at least 10 minutes, annoyed with myself for always forgetting the exact location where Mami is buried. I eventually find her tombstone: black marble engraved with the years of her life, a personal message crafted by my sisters, her nickname, La Ley ("The Law," given to her by her father, my Papa Je, when...
