PUSSY RIOT

     I wonder if people really care that much about the plight of the Russian feminist punk band "Pussy Riot," or if the news agencies are constantly writing about them just for the sheer thrill of putting something as vile as "PUSSY RIOT" in headlines. Not to mention being able to pair it with "PUTIN."
     I know that if their band's name were "Dung Nuts" instead, Madonna would certainly not be writing "FREE DUNG NUTS" on her arms and flashing it for concert photo ops.
Like her arms weren't disturbing enough already.

  3. The purpose doesn't matter to the members of Pussy Riot. What matters is getting them out of jail. Please sign the Amnesty International petition if you haven't already. I love your library blog and will probably follow it. My library blog is somebody's librarian on Wordpress.

    Be great and keep writing!

  4. Thank you for the info about the Amnesty International petition, Somebody's Librarian! I just used my email to follow your blog, which looks great. You have the same set of nonfiction books about Greek Mythology that we do, which the kids LOVE. (And sometimes steal) Plus, I can't wait to check out the link to more dystopian YA. Your blog is right up my alley! :)
