Click here to view [the original article](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/04/opinion/saudi-arabia-qatar-reform.html). In June, Saudi Arabia — along with two other Persian Gulf states and Egypt — [picked a fight with Qatar](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/05/world/middleeast/qatar-saudi-arabia-egypt-bahrain-united-arab-emirates.html), on the grounds that the country is funding Islamic terrorism. The move was almost satirical, given that Saudi Arabia itself has long funded the spread of fundamentalist Salafi Islam, which is often associated with extremism. However, this diplomatic spat seems to be more than just an example of Saudi Arabia’s pot calling Qatar’s kettle black. Saudi leaders could be using the conflict, which has resulted in a blockade of Qatar, as a strategic smoke screen to deflect attention from the simmering tension inside their own insular borders.

An innocent life was lost when an individual affiliated with the neo-Nazi movement killed Heather Heyer. Neo-Nazis and white supremacists are deceitfully pretending to be the voice for white America.

While 21st century women have really proved their ability and demanded equality, a stereotype still remains for those who have exceeded through levels of management or are in the process of currently doing so. In 2017, there was a hyper focus on women in the workplace as March was “Honoring Trailblazing Women in Labor and Business”. WWSG is proud to represent a few who have really made their mark in their business societies. From secretaries to CEOs and minority students to organization Presidents, Founders, and CEOs, some of WWSG’s exclusive speakers can shed light over their experiences and inspire everyone following in their steps.

The walls in my office have been bare all week and boxes have been stacked with notes from colleagues, books and photos from the ten years I have worked for Barack Obama. As I was driving my car out of the gate, it hit me that for the first time, in a long time, I am not officially a part of something bigger than myself.
