I watched this video of rapper M.I.A. being interviewed by snarky political comedian Bill Maher. I know that M.I.A. is political and shit, but I never really knew what she was talking about. Glad that Bill Maher sort of 'spoke for her' and 'explained the issue' that she keeps blabbing about. Not even sure if I 'get it.' I feel like I might only care about American issues, or issues that cause the American govt to spend money so I can complain about how there are potholes in my roads even though we are spending money on the war in Iraq.  Sort of just wish that she would 'rap' over some sweet beats (produced by Diplo) instead of 'talking about issues and shit.'

From what I understand:

• M.I.A. is from Sri Lanka
• They are killing the 'minorities' there
• There are crimes and stuff like that going on there
• It is 'bad' and 'serious'
• M.I.A. will write a song called "Paper Planes 2.0" about it
• M.I.A. has black hair but it used to be orange and it is growing out
• Bill Maher thinks American ppl are 'mad stupid'
• M.I.A. lived in the U.K. since age 10

This is a map of Sri Lanka.  I think the green areas are 'less violent' and the yellow areas represent 'more acts of hate and political oppression.'

Just trying to educate yall.  Trying to get yall to care about more global issues.   Wish more celebrities would come up with more creative causes to support instead of just 'supporting Obama.'   Feel like he's boring to support since he is making things worse and led us into economic crisis.
