Working Through The Weekend With A MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• At the Asian Games, Singapore’s men’s water polo team sparked controversy with their trunks. People are taking offense to the Singaporean flag’s design—especially the placement of the crescent moon—on the front of the briefs. Hey, water polo player, is that Singaporean pride on your trunks or are you just happy to see us?
• The FBI announced the number of reported hate crimes dramatically dropped in 2009 versus 2008, marking the lowest point in over 15 years. Maybe folks are directing their hatred at different targets—like politicians, greedy corporations and Singapore’s water polo players.
• A new World Health Organization report states secondhand smoke sickens millions and kills about 600,000 people per year worldwide. Now those figures deserve some hate.
