Arizona's bad bill SB 1070 - Time to fight
"In the State of Arizona, there is a proposed bill called, SB 1070 which if passed, on July 28th 2010, would give law enforcement the right to stop, ID, arrested, and possibly deport any person(s) whom they believe to be a so-called “illegal alien”. This green-light to stop or interrogate a person is based on [the officer’s] suspicion that an individual is “illegal”. This means if they feel you look “illegal” you can stopped. Furthermore, if you have a brown or darker complexion, you are "illegal" in the eyes of this law. Even people of darker complexion who are “legal citizens” born and raised in Arizona can be stopped by the police and if they do not present proper documentation -upon request- proving their “legal status” that individual can be arrested and fined. Indicting people based on their colour reminds me of something from the Jim Crow-era of "American justice".

France, Orleans: July 1-15, 2010: Open Skies
As part of its policy of support for artistic creation, the Municipality of Orleans presents the exhibition "Open Skies" from 1 to 15 July.
This project takes us to Graffiti Street Art through an outdoor exhibit.
Starting July 1, Orleans comes alive with exhibitions and artistic projects that form a unique historical path: Museum of Fine Arts, the starting point of the event to be conducted where Vinegar Dessaux live for 4 days - 1 on July 4, 2010 - a giant mural. The even takes place in all the city and major artists as Seen, Jonone, West, Psy and Jef Aérosol are invited to paint on the façade of the old industrial Dessaux place which will be turned in the future into an art center.
This groundbreaking exhibition is also the symbolic start of a major project with the development of the site Dessaux for contemporary art. Faced with the FRAC, with about 3000m ² of exhibition halls and a future structure Eiffel still present, the place promises a bright future for contemporary art in Orleans.
Dans le cadre de sa politique de soutien à la création artistique, la Mairie d'Orléans présente l'exposition "A ciel ouvert" du 1er au 15 juillet.
Ce projet nous mène du Graffiti au Street Art à travers une exposition en plein air.
Dès le 1er juillet, Orléans s'anime de nombreuses expositions et projets artistiques qui forment un parcours historique unique: du Musée des Beaux-Arts, point de départ de la manifestation à la Vinaigrerie Dessaux où sera réalisé en live pendant 4 jours - du 1er au 4 juillet 2010 - une fresque murale géante.
Cette exposition exceptionnelle, est aussi le démarrage symbolique d'un projet d'envergure avec la mise en valeur du site Dessaux pour l'art contemporain. Face au Frac, avec près de 3000m² de salles d'expositions à venir et une structure Eiffel encore présente, le lieu promet de beaux jours pour l'art contemporain à Orléans.
