(AP) — St. Louis County police say civil rights activist Cornel West was among 13 people arrested during a protest at Ferguson police headquarters. The former Princeton University professor has been in the St. Louis area for a weekend of protests, speeches and workshops designed to call attention to anger over police treatment of minorities. West now teaches at New York’s Union Theological Seminary. He was arrested shortly before 1 p.m. Monday on a charge of disturbing the peace. County police said the protesters said they wanted to be arrested. Police said arrests were made after protesters began bumping officers’ shields and forced their way through the law enforcement skirmish line. Ferguson is roiled by the Aug. 9 fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed, black 18-year-old, by a white officer.

Repost from @ateam628,Humbled & inspired by this young lady’s determination. From being shot in the head by a Taliban gunman two years ago to being the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize at 17 today, Malala Yousafzai is an inspiration for what a person can do when they believe in themselves & the cause they are fighting for. She is receiving the award “for her struggle against the suppression of children & young people and for the right of all children to education”. I swear women are the most phenomenal beings ever! #phenomenalwoman

Katy Perry Performing at Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show
Katy Perry performs onstage during “The Prismatic World Tour” at PNC Arena on June 22, 2014 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Katy Perry will perform at this year’s Super Bowl halftime show, sources have confirmed with Billboard. Perry’s performance has been speculated since August after the National Football League had reportedly shortlisted her along with Coldplay and Rihanna, who saw the use of her song “Run This Town” with Jay-Z axed in a segment during the wake of the Ray Rice scandal. Super Bowl Halftime Pay-to-Play Reports: Grammys Producer Ken Ehrlich Weighs In The news of those three contenders also came with word the league was asking those artists under consideration to pay to play, since last year’s broadcast drew a record-setting 111.5 million viewers and previous performers have all seen significant boosts in sales, touring and public profile. In response, appearing on ESPN’s College Game Day this past Saturday, Perry said, “I’m not the kind of girl who would pay to play the Super Bowl.” With previous speculation, Billboard reported a number of good reasons for Perry to play the big stage, including her current hits, her (mostly) family-friendly catalog, and her international popularity (her 58.1 million Twitter followers make her the most popular presence on the social site).
