K'Naan on Somali Pirates

@jonubian "If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive." -Audre Lorde

I ran across this K'Naan piece while reading the incredibly thoughtful writing of @jonubian in a piece titled, "Owning Our Images" in response to Kanye West's "outburst" at the MTV VMA awards. I encourage you to read her piece here.
