So I found this Amnesty International magazine on the ground and was looking though it (all I do is look) and I saw this project:
http://www.miss-landmine.org/misslandmine_project.html
It's opening in Norway in couple days and I want to go. The project brought up some conflicting thoughts/feelings for me. I mean I get the whole "giving identity to a largely faceless population" and showing the various facets of beauty... but the beauty pageant theme just gets me. I mean it's funny (I laughed). I wouldn't compare such unique beauty with something so traditionally in line with perpetuating exploitation and stereotypes.
