WHAT IS HAPPENING IN BANGLADESH?
Students of college, universities and even high schools in Bangladesh have taken to the streets in a mass movement named the "Bangla Blockade" demanding the eradication of the quota system. The quota system reserves a massive percentage of the government jobs for specific groups of people. These jobs are earned by sitting for the Bangladesh Civil Service exams.
Effectively, only 46% of the jobs are left to be contested by merit.
The biggest quota sectors are NOT for the disabled, or indigenous people or for women.
THIRTY PERCENT of the jobs are reserved for children and grandchildren of registered freedom fighters.
The police and political wings are using violence on the protesters. Images of armed men beating up women with sticks and rods are going viral. Spread the word. We need more people talking about this.

Know the Bible History Better
After the invention of the printing press in the 15th century, the publication of texts got a big boost. During those early years of printing, there were many takers for the Latin Bible. However, things changed after the Gutenberg Bible was printed in 1455. It was followed by 90+ other editions of the Vulgate, some of which came equipped with commentary, and were published by presses spread across Europe.
The 15th and early 16th centuries in Europe are marked by significant intellectual change, which had a direct impact on the Bible’s availability and accessibility in the vernacular language to the commoners.  
Tracing the Bible History
The first hand-written Bible manuscripts in English were produced by John Wycliffe in the 1380’s AD. Wycliffe was a leading theologian and scholar of his time, who believed the organized Church's teaching was in contrast to the Bible.
In the 1450s, after the printing press was invented, Johann Gutenberg printed a Latin language Bible. This became the first book ever to get printed.
Over time, the Latin Vulgate became so corrupt that it could no longer preserve the message of the Gospel. This was exactly what Thomas Linacre, an Oxford professor, stated after he learned Greek and then read the Gospels in Greek. His words couldn't be taken lightly as he was the personal doctor to England’s King Henry VII and VIII.
After he found 6,000+ mistakes in the Vulgate, Erasmus, a priest based in the Netherlands, published a new Greek translation of the Bible by using multiple sources.
In 1522, Martin Luther's translation of the New Testament into German was published, which became renowned as Luther’s September Testament. In 1526, William Tyndale published his New Testament. Later, in 1530, he published the Pentateuch. Often called the Protestant Reformation’s “father,” Tyndale’s work had a significant impact on subsequent Bible translators.
Wrapping Up
In 1539, the Great Bible was published. It was the first authorized version of the Bible in English. Some years down the line, the Geneva Bible and the Bishop’s Bible came into existence, and then came the KJV in 1611, which quickly became the most extensively published text in the English language.

when someone on this website negatively calls a mentality or a philosophical framework or something "very Catholic", like 7 out of 10 times it's actually something antithetical to Catholic philosophy and doctrine and is actually very Protestant

I have genuinely only been able to think about Bangladesh rn the fear I have is so immense and I have no idea if people there are ok rn, idk if my family is ok rn. I have no clue what violence is occurring there rn and I have only seen previous examples like tanks on the streets and police sniping student protestors from rooftops and news of many people like a 7th grader being killed and it burns me to see barely anyone fucking talk about it or share anything about it, besides the diaspora rn and some good folks, does the world even fucking care when people are suffering

They shut all our social media again. The internet is so slow its practically useless.
I went outside today. Saw a bunch of BSL (Student League) kids with sticks and sharp things. They blocked of a road and shit so I had to take the long way round. Another massacre will happen today. That's why they shut off communication. Can't have people alerting each other, can they?
International community, we're reaching out to you. Every word counts. Every reblog counts. Every small step you take could save someone's life. Talk about it. Speak up. They've taken away our voice and now only you can shout for us. Save lives. Stop a genocide.

STUDENT PROTESTS IN BANGLADESH
Tumblr media
Injuries and casualties are rising!!! Thousands injured. Children dead.
Are you aware of the ongoing student protests in Bangladesh? All schools and universities have been shut down. Even the primary schools in cities. It has led to violence. There have been casualties. All because the students (18-25/26 year olds) wanted an equal foot in the job market.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/16/asia/bangladesh-protests-quote-intl-latam/index.html This is a CNN article on this topic. But casualties are rising. We need international support if we are to have any chance at a better future.
https://www.thedailystar.net/opinion/views/news/lecture-halls-the-streets-universities-submerged-dual-protests-3651751 Here is a local newspaper's coverage.
https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/07/bangladesh-witness-testimony-video-and-photographic-analysis-confirm-police-used-unlawful-force-against-protesters/ Amnesty International's article.
https://x.com/UNHumanRights/status/1813553026357162061 UN Human Rights also commented on this subject.
The network is being impacted.

JULY 18TH
Students have organised a nationwide blockade. There are talks of the BSL (the student wing of the ruling political party) planning to engage in violent clashes with the students joining the protests. The students are from high schools, colleges and universities.
When locals joined the protest yesterday in support of the students, shots were fired at them at a place called Shonir Akhra, including at a two-year old child.
