The line, a reference to the radical 1971 poem by Gil Scott-Heron, flew over many watchers’ heads, as did much of the rich symbolism that Lamar conveyed during the 13-minute show. While the show was full of energy and upbeat, many viewers failed to pick up on the message behind it – only commenting on the subtle jabs at Canadian rapper, Drake.

At his Inauguration rally today at the Capital One arena in DC, President Trump said...Mon, 04 May 2026 00:00:00 +0100https://skierscribbler.com/13353/opinion/martin-luther-king-day-your-voice-matters/https://skierscribbler.com/13236/opinion/being-a-part-of-the-8/6,741 people make up the population of Aspen; 0.8% of that population identifies as black.

Does this percentage account for people of mixed races? What’s the margin for this almost nonexistent population? 0.8% of 6,741 is roughly 53 people. 7.5% of Aspen identifies as mixed race, slightly over 500 people.

What is considered “classically feminine” to the average person? Long, flowing hair? A petite figure paired with dainty features and a soft voice? Submissiveness?These aren’t characteristics that define women, nor are they the ideals that many consciously strive for.

As a child, my favorite part of a road trip was stopping in the town over for breakfast at McDonald’s; I’d get a sausage McMuffin, hash browns and an orange juice every time. I’ve carried this same order into adulthood, for those days when a little nostalgic pick-me-up is needed. Something along the lines of the phrase, “Comfor...Thu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://collegian.com/articles/featured/2026/03/category-opinion-galindo-bartley-comfort-is-always-a-needed-indulgence/https://collegian.com/articles/opinion/2026/02/category-opinion-galindo-bartley-happiness-in-spite-of-fear-is-the-greatest-resistance/Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. There’s a popular meme circling the internet right now of a man being interviewed in a lively club scene.

Being able to afford it. While staying in style has always been an ideal, it’s becoming increasingly difficult as the years go by.
