An San of South Korea is the women’s individual archery gold medal winner at Tokyo 2020. She is also the target of online abuse from within South Korea. Why? She is a feminist. And how do these keyboard warriors know she is a feminist? Because she has cut her hair short. An San has refused to comment on the abuse. Maybe she’s been left speechless.

A strip of farmland is surrounded by desert near Kayyam, United Arab Emirates, roughly 90 miles (145 km) southwest of Abu Dhabi. This area is part of the Liwa Oasis, a date-palm cultivating region at the edge of the Rub’ al Khali desert. Since the UAE averages 12 days of rain a year and contains less than 1% arable land, there is widespread use of drip irrigation and greenhouses in this area.
