If cholitas are taken to signify an actual demographic group, it is Bolivia’s rural poor, who for centuries have kept indigenous languages alive and traded between towns and villages while maintaining a distinguishing country aesthetic. To urban Bolivians, their bowler hats and braids seem to proclaim that cholitas —despite their frequent contact with cities—have not forgotten where they truly come from. Yet these women and their families have lived in informal urban settlements for generations, often suffering everything from official neglect to acts of outright racism. The lives of cholitas changed dramatically with the election of Evo Morales in 2006, along with their neighborhoods—usually vast, high-altitude slums, which are now slowly being fitted with better transportation and public services.

    Substantial Disruption: An Inside Look at Cyberbullying and First Amendment Rights in Public Schools BY: ROBERT CASTLE* I. INTRODUCTION The freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution exemplify our nation’s commitment to ensuring a liberated, freethinking society of individuals capable of changing the world.1 The lives of Americans, past and present, would be radically different had the Founding Fathers built a society restricting the ability to speak freely, explore different religions and cultures, or navigate the countless genres of thought life has to offer. For generations, the U.S. has been a symbol of tolerance, innovation, and progressive thinking.2 This is not to say, however, that our nation has not faced its share of immense challenges and bouts of controversy. These noble ideals often clash with societal advancements, like technology, which foster problems never intended by our forefathers.3 One of the most controversial issues facing our society today begs the question of whether the freedoms granted by the First Amendment extend to Internet communication.4 On one hand, the Internet has * Loyola University Chicago School of Law, J.D. expected May 2014. 1 See U.S. CONST. amend.
