This is one of those songs that I play every couple of years and each time I play it, it seems even more relevant than the last time.  It makes me think its message is one that will always be relevant, always be needed.   From March 29, 2019 … A National Remembrance Service for the victims of the Christchurch mosques terrorist attack, and all those affected by it, was held this morning.  Yusuf…

Today is the fifth anniversary of the mass murder of Muslims at prayer in mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand by a white supremacist terrorist. It would be a really nice day to donate to a Muslim cause in their memory.

The Tannery, Christchurch

This place was so pretty and I loved the vibe! Definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Christchurch.

What's the prettiest place that y'all have been to?

✯ Round 1 ✯ Match 32 ✯

The current flag of Iisalmi, North Savo, Finland

Propaganda:

None

vs

The current flag of Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand (Ōtautahi, Waitaha, Aotearoa)

Propaganda:

This flag manages to include a lot of obvious and subtle symbolism. The red triangle is a reference to the southern alps--a main feature of the South Island. The four Lymphads are in reference to the four ships that arrived in the port of Lyttleton to bring British colonials to Christchurch. The lamb and wheat are in reference to the industry around Christchurch--mainly farming. the Bishop's hat is in reference to like, *christ* *church*. Except the goddamn church had been under repairs for 13, 14 years.

Tournament Policies: ✯ Choose the flag that's more meaningful to you! ✯ Be respectful of place names and cultural symbols in your commentary! ✯ If you want to submit propaganda, you may do so at the submission form linked in the pinned post. It will only be included if it is submitted before the next post with that flag is drafted and will be included in all subsequent posts the flag is featured in.

Yesterday’s music post, the Rascal’s “People Got To Be Free”, led to this one today!  Our friend rawgod tells me that this one was ‘just there’ in his head, a natural sequel as it were.  Happens that I agree.  I have posted this one twice before … once in 2019 and once in 2020 … and both times, I noted that it was so very appropriate for the current times.  Two years ago, it was the Christchurch…
