Yesterday Somali judge Sheikh Mohamed Abdi Aware was assassinated by masked assholes outside of a mosque in Bosasso, a well-known human trafficking route. Aware sentenced hundreds of human traffickers and pirates to prison throughout his lifetime. This is the same day I went to Washington Square Park to check out the Helen Bamber Foundation’s touring installation Journey, which is seven shipping containers designed by separate artists intended to evoke the emotional stages a trafficked woman experiences. I’m a guy, but I think it worked.
