Now I see why they cheat the system. We cheated them first. Fair is fair. Reminds me of the song I loved as a teen by Midnight Oil called Beds are Burning or something like that. I was pro indigenous since a youth though being tugged at by various forces. #nookspiration #literacymatters #displacedpeople #immigration #immigrants #dacadreamers #daca #maga #buildawall #politics #globalization #samsunggoals #humanrights in this book there's a part where an American corporation pulled a Walmart in Mexico on pig farmers. They sold pork below what the Mexican farmers could sell, stole all their business and they went out of business. They then bought them out and gave them jobs but kept them illegal in order to abuse them and keep them quiet about it. That's what we're dealing with. It took a bit of coffee to jog my memory. I think coffee with supplements and meds created the stiffness and soreness. I read you can't take those with coffee because it interacts. Take it with juice or water. Our corporations are assholes sometimes. Look at what's going on with Facebook and Instagram and WhatsApp and also what corps put in our processed food. They don't care about us. We're cannon fodder in their war for profits.. (at North Ogden, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUswlmyvYLL/?utm_medium=tumblr

What exactly is FREEDOM and How far would YOU go to obtain it??? How much of yourself would you give to just, BE? How extreme are you about obtaining and keeping this FREEDOM in tact? What would you die for exactly? 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹 We are at an all time low when we allow something of this magnitude while others get FLEWD TF out and placed on AirBNB accommodations!!! This is more than problematic it’s fucking INHUMANE!!!!

Historic Black Community threatened by encroachment and traffic problems. Phillips, around 550 acres of land at one time but now smaller, consists of around 300 houses and is home to roughly 750 people, according to John Wright, who heads the African-American Settlement Community Historical Commission, an organization launched in 2016 to “protect and preserve the existing characteristics of African-American Settlement Communities and enhance the quality of life for current and future generations of residents of the African-American settlement communities.” Wright, whose ancestors arrived in Phillips in the 1890s, said the group he leads is “100 percent with the community.” #gullahgeecheeheritagecorridor #gullah #gullahgeechee #gullahculture #geechee #historicpreservation #history #blackhistory #mtpleasantsc #gentrification #gentrified #displacedpeople #protectyourland #protectyourculture #blacklandowners #landowners #land #property #overdevelopment #suburbs (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE-QbzrFgjQ/?igshid=152v1q2dqu85y

#TBT borderlxne April 1, 2019 The braid was made of extensions i had in April, July, August, November, December 2018. Through this artwork i aim to weave my silenced-ness into a wider, collective narrative. It’s about personal borders bridging political ones. Hair, Black hair is such a sense and sign of identity.  The war wages on and while we go natural or not, there is still a lot of rejection and shaming for using hair extensions: weaves or box braids. Supposedly we pretend to look white with fake fibres, honestly for me it is just a protective style. On the continent it was how we identified, when our ancestors were taken away, they braided seeds in cornrows. African rice is in maroon villages of Suriname.  When we were taken away our hair was shorn and we were scattered by language. We were told our hair needed to be relaxed. We were told and shown and done to a great deal. This action was done 9 days before the originally scheduled date of the referendum on whether to settle the centuries-long Belize-Guatemala dispute at the International Court of Justice (because of court proceedings in Belize on how the referendum was fired, the referendum was held on May 8, 2019) The audacity of this does make one contemplate Chronixx's "Capture Land" that Spain and the UK decided that Belize, (once called British Honduras, before that the Settlement) was either of their possession when all of this is Maya land boggles the mind. Then enslaved Africans were brought here, displaced and dispossessed. And no one asked us anything. Imagine claiming land that aint yours, bringing people as property and plopping them down to work said land and chasing the Indigenous owners off it (in the case of Belize, the Maya) "tale as old as time" huh? Settler mentality abounds. This action was to say Black Womxn erased from territorial concerns are attempting, as we always have done, to reclaim space, while trying to figure out who we are, where we come from, how we talk and how to get back home. #performance #belizeancontemporary #erasure #territorialdispute #settlermentality #displacedpeople #belizeguatemalaterritorialdispute (at Image Factory Art Foundation) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1eIBSeFcf6/?igshid=1y6iopoihmrr

One Long Night: Andrea Pitzer on the Global History of Concentration Camps

Making Contact · One Long Night: Andrea Pitzer on the Global History of Concentration Camps   “The use of concentration camps changes the world, but going forward, the most predictable outcome of their use is a world with more camps” Today we use a lot of euphemisms: re-education camps, internment, work camps, prison camps, camps for internally displaced people. But before World War I, these…

Cities and the Interstate System

"The future of cities lies in their ability to harness the power of technology to solve complex urban issues and create sustainable, livable communities.” - Michael Bloomberg

Join Keerthi as she takes us on an adventure through cities and technology! She introduces the show with a fascinating segment of Nerd Extraordinaire! She talks about how debate can build a community and bring people together. You trace the steps you would take if you were to make your opponent’s conclusions, and find the holes in those steps that you emphasize to the judge. So, whether you notice it or not, all debaters consider - even if it’s just for a moment - the possibility that they are wrong. This forms a seemingly alien form of empathy. In segment two, our guest, Vikram Anantha, shares his research about cities and highways. In the 1950s, President Eisenhower enacted a bill to construct the Interstate system to connect the United States. While it worked on a nation-wide scale, its main mistake was constructing it within the city, as it had disastrous effects. His paper describes how urban areas became polluted, divided, and desolate, and many of these effects had racist intentions. In recent years, many cities have begun to right these wrongs, with help from the Biden Administration, by deconstructing the highways and reclaiming their land. Keerthi and Vikram discuss the negative and positive effects the Interstate System had on cities. Keerthi ends the show with her third segment! She discusses how we can effectively use technology to improve quality of life. 

Bios: Vikram is a student at Lexington High School, in Massachusetts, Class of 2024. He enjoys coding, and has a hobby of taking photos and making movies - especially of people. Because he is his school's Yearbook Photo's editor, he gets to capture photos of people in their best moments: having fun, enjoying with their friends, and more. In addition, he loves cities and urban areas. He uses his experience with photography to capture cities in their golden hour, and uses his knowledge of coding to make cities "smarter": integrating technology to cities to make the environment safer, greener, and helpful to its people. When Vikram is not coding or taking photos, he is playing tennis or enjoying time with his friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBXDDNtiyXw

The ethnic cleansing of Georgians in South Ossetia and other territories occupied by the Russian armed forces and those of South Ossetia during and after the Russia-Georgia war of 2008, has produced many deaths and thousands of exiles.  Tserovani was one of settlements built by the Georgian government for displaced people in South Ossetia six years ago. Standard houses, no plants or yards. Today is almost a little town with infrastructures. Many of the inhabitants are children. . . . . #Tserovani #Georgia #Settlement #refugees #war #russianoccupation #SouthOssetia #russiageorgiawar #ethniccleansing #Tbilisi #IDP #2008 #displacedpeople #carlo_bevilacqua #carlobevilacqua #reportage #photography #NGO #ONG #urbanchange #exiles #banishment #multimedia #transmedia #documentary #documentaryphotography # refugeecamp #idpsettlement

According to the United Nations reports, the count of displaced people in the world is more than 84 millions. When the causes of these displacements are examined, it is seen that violence, human rights violations, insecurity and climate change factors trigger this mobility. It should also be noted that this figure means that much more people have been displaced than in World War II, and 42% are boys and girls under the age of 18.
