If the majority of the world has been consumed by a grey malaise induced by the continued scourge of the pandemic, Louis Vuitton’s artistic director of menswear, Virgil Abloh, is, like David in the face of a particularly virulent Goliath, determined to provide a beacon of creative hope.
Throughout 2020, the polymath designer forged on with joint SS21 shows in both Shanghai and Tokyo (arguably making more work for himself than he would have had in a normal year), in addition to mounting multiple special projects including an exclusive trainer for World Aids Day and the introduction of a standalone performance-wear collection, LV2054.
Share Editor’s note: Around the world, 2020 was turbulent, challenging, and a year truly unlike any other. This article, reviewing the period from September to December, is the third in a three-part series that looks back at some of the important events and developments that unfolded in Eritrea during 2020. Parts I and II were published in earlier editions of Eritrea Profile.
September
Meskerem, the 9th month, began with Eritreans around the world observing the 59th anniversary of the beginning of Eritrea’s armed struggle for independence. In Asmara, events at Cinema Roma included cultural programs, musical performances, drama programs, and poetry reading highlighting the unity and resilience of the Eritrean people.
Fisher grew up on a farm in the country town of Rockbank, about 30 kilometres from metropolitan Melbourne, one of only a handful of students at the small local school. He later attended Melbourne High School before undertaking a computer science degree at RMIT (formerly the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology). Though it originated decades earlier, HIV/Aids was sweeping the world in the 1980s and early 1990s. Misinformation and homophobia were rife. Aids was labelled the “gay plague”, and initially named “Gay Related Immune Deficiency”. The spectre loomed large. In 1987-88, when Fisher came out while at university, the ‘Grim Reaper’ ad campaign screened on Australian televisions, showing the personification of death bowling – knocking over men, women and children.
CNN Anchor Brutally Calls Out McEnany For Nonstop Lying
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany appeared on Fox News Monday night to peddle long-debunked election lies a mere day after insisting on Twitter that she s not a liar.
Among other things, McEnany falsely claimed that President-elect Joe Biden outperformed former Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton s 2016 performance in only four major metro areas during the 2020 election, suggesting that this somehow proved there had been massive election fraud. This [voter fraud] happened in the places that needed to happen, which is why the four metros the only four where Joe Biden outperformed Hillary Clinton were Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Atlanta, and Detroit, McEnany said.
