Thymos Weekend: Anti-Pageant

INDIA KASHMIR PROTEST

Man, what a wild and fun weekend!  On Saturday, we had the Miss Asian Oregon Pageant.  Yesterday, we had the anti-Pageant.  Both events were lots of fun.

I wanted to put a post for each event.  Even though the Pageant came first, I thought it best to post the anti-Pageant first, because while the anti-Pageant is over, the pageant has just begun–hopefully we will have opportunities for the new Royal Court to use their crowns to inspire and raise awareness of their platforms over the next year.  Also, since the anti-Pageant was a bit more negative than the Pageant (in my opinion anyway), I thought it best for the positive voices to get the last word.  So this is my anti-Pageant post.
