Africa advocates to Obama: Don’t recognize Kagame’s election
President Obama said, in his 2009 speech in Accra, Ghana, that America should support strong institutions and not strong men. However, in the case of Rwanda, this has been no more than rhetoric. Rwandans, like most Africans, cheered Obama’s election, hoping that it might signal a new, more peaceful and cooperative relationship between the U.S. and Africa, but Obama has expanded AFRICOM, the U.S. Africa Command, and now he remains silent as Rwanda’s strongman, President Paul Kagame, prepares a sham presidential election to retain his brutal grip on power.

text Police abuse: Blame the victims! It’s reassuring Ritt Goldstein 2010-07-25 4:37 AM
Police abuse is a crime not that dissimilar to rape, a nightmarish violation of ones person at the heart of both, victims often perversely targeted for blame. But for those who believe it madness to 'blame the victims', the psychology in play suggests you're right. (text/plain)

The Soft Hand
Since the explosion on the Transocean Deepwater Horizon oil rig April 20, 2010 we have seen British Petroleum running from their obligations. They have constantly given inaccurate figures regarding just how much is leaking. They have shunned responsibilities regarding payments to workers. They have not allowed journalists to do their job as watchdogs over this incident on behalf of the public. (image/jpeg)

text Police Abuse: Will a ‘torture’ verdict be the beginning of the end? Ritt Goldstein 2010-07-07 3:36 AM
Similar to the crime of rape, that of police abuse is substantively underreported. But while news reports have rightly hailed the torture related conviction of former Chicago police lieutenant Jon Burge, all too many issues remain. (text/plain)

text Blood on the Border Internationalist Group 2010-07-06 3:46 PM
Today in the United States, under the Democratic administration of Barack Obama, xenophobic and racist violence is escalating. The criminal agents of the Border Patrol have reached the point of killing in cold blood, before the eyes of hundreds of witnesses. On May 28, construction worker Anastasio Hernández Rojas was beaten to death by some 20 agents of the U.S. Border Patrol. Then on June 7 in Ciudad Juárez, across the river from El Paso, Border Patrol agents fired into a group of youths on the Mexican side of of the border, murdering 14-year-old Adrián Hernández with a shot to the head. These crimes are part of a policy of racist repression looking for scapegoats, typified by the legalization of xeonophobia and police use of racial profiling in Arizona’s SB 1070 law. But while Obama criticize the law, “Obama, listen, we are in the struggle,” his thugs are killing on the border. It is an illusion to think that the commander in chief of U.S. imperialism, or his counterpart and semi-colonial underling, Mexican president Felipe Calderón, will defend the workers. It is necessary to mobilize the power of the working class to defend immigrants. (text/html)

Like Nothing
Politics is so strewn with selfishness and short memory. It often leads to a certain level of ingratitude towards people who propel politicians to campaign victories. For many who understand this and are playing the political game they expect it and believe it to be part of the package. They learn the ins and outs and see it as the system they need to navigate to get what they want. These are people who have something to gain personally from politics. For them there is always a sense of professional detachment from the issues. (image/jpeg)

Bishop Christopher on gay suicide, gay genocide, and Article 13
On Monday, May 26, Ugandan Bishop Christopher Senyonjo, fondly known as Bishop Christopher, spoke to a circle gathered round him at San Francisco’s African American Art and Culture Complex. He explained his counseling work with LGBT youth, his advocacy for LGBT rights and his opposition to Uganda’s infamous proposed Anti Homosexuality Act, a.k.a., “Hang-the-Gays” bill, which has caused alarm at the Western Christian Right’s globalization of the culture wars. And, he explained Article 13, the one section of the act still likely to be written into law, which would make way for wholesale human rights abuse. (image/jpeg)
