For 10 minutes every morning, I stare into the gaping hole that is my closet trying to decide what I am going to wear. Initially, I thought living in a dorm would help: A tiny closet would force me to pare down my wardrobe to the bare minimum. Instead, I find myself frustrated, knowing that my Arizona uniform of tank tops and shorts isn’t going to cut it during an Ithaca winter.
Yet, as indecisive as I am, I know I should be lucky that I even have a choice over what I wear. It wasn’t until last week, when I heard about Lubna Ahmed Hussein, that I realized it could be any different.
Hussein, a Sudanese journalist, was dining out with friends when authorities raided the restaurant, arresting Hussein and several of her friends.
