H1N1: Convenient like Katrina

First Nations peoples demand assistance and medical supplies from Health Canada after second wave of H1N1 ravages their communities. Medical supplies received? BODY BAGS.

Targeted negligence- the clean genocide? Hate can be as dispassionate as watching someone die without a blinking an eye... because you made them invisible, and rationalized their suffering as their own fault.

War on Terror/War of Terror

Finally got a chance to peep the Melissa Roxas press conference (skip to 17 minutes to get right to her statement):

Warning: Triggering

Melissa Roxas speaks at Press Conference from Anakbayan Seattle on Vimeo.


Activists, reporters, teachers getting "disappeared" in the PI is nothing new, though I suspect the only thing that saved her life was her being an American citizen... maybe. Were this another country where we didn't run the government, were this a white girl, you know we'd be all up in arms. Instead, this shit hasn't even hit the news.

And how many more people have never even gotten a chance to tell their story and never will?

More info at Bayan.
