Slightly Silly but Still Relevant

Although this is slightly sillier than our usual posts, here is a link to a page listing "13 Things That Happened While D.C. Was Obsessed With the Shutdown".  Some of these are not relevant to human rights, however some definitely are. I felt this was worth posting because it really puts into perspective the things that get overlooked if they don't directly pertain to us. The photography for some of the events mentioned is beautiful and tragic. It's most certainly worth taking a look at.

  1. It's interesting how so many important things happen and most people don't even know about them. I feel like this relates to Persepolis because it seems like people outside of Iran barely knew what was going on and didn't really care.
