The interview segments on The Colbert Report are usually little more than an excuse for host Stephen Colbert to show off his virtuoso in - character improvisational skills , while the guests play along with varying degrees of success . On Tuesday night ’s Report , however , Colbert met his quick - witted match in Pussy Riot , the punk band whose members were imprisoned , then released , for insulting Russian President Vladmir Putin . Their feat was all the more impressive for the fact that they conducted the interview through a translator , which at first seemed like it might become drag on the interview . Instead , the responses from Pussy Riot members Nadya Tolokonnikova and Masha Alyokhina were so sharp , funny , and at times poignant , that the presence of the translator only served to hang the viewer on every word . They talked about their imprisonment and release , took shots at Putin , daring him to put them back in jail , and provided alternately hilarious and sobering commentary on the state of Russia ’s anti - gay laws . Sometimes , it seems , humor is n’t lost in translation , it is revealed .

the media were white european girls . that 's why , after a few tweets , i ceased participating in the ongoing # bringbackourgirls campaign , which is designed to highlight the plight of more than 200 nigerian schoolgirls kidnapped by boko haram last month . # bringbackourgirls has exploded across social media , powered by a desire to reunite 200 kidnapped nigerian girls with their parents as well as a strong sense of outrage . the campaign has been going on for weeks , and it 's become painfully clear that while the hashtag has elicited attention , the news coverage is n't enough to make a difference to the people at the center of this horrifying story — the nigerian girls ’ kidnap . but i think hashtag activism should be used judiciously , especially when it comes to issues affecting the black community , at home and abroad . if 200 girls had gone missing in spain , whether white or black , there would have been far more coverage . the abductions boko haram must be quaking in their boots . in some situations , it risks offering users of social media a false sense of accomplishment while obscuring underlying policy and structural issues as well as the full picture of what is taking place on the ground . many of us have been on holiday to spain and it is a sad fact of humanity that we care more about things we can imagine happening to us .
