Africa advocates to Obama: Don’t recognize Kagame’s election
Africa advocates
2010-07-28 2:54 PM
 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.

The release from the BP facility here began on April 6 and lasted 40 days.
A 2005 explosion at the same refinery killed 15 workers; four more workers have died in accidents since then. Last year, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration fined the company $87 million for failing to address safety problems that caused the 2005 blast. (image/jpeg + 4 comments)
BP continues to block access to the Plight of our birds, our Wildlife
Elizabth Cook
2010-07-27 11:30 AM
 Perhaps ithe greatest way that we can help the creatures, the wildlife impacted by this oil spill is to demand immediate and continuous access to our oil impacted beaches and marshes in order to observe and document their conditions and help when possible. Observation of wildlife will also give us clues as to possible effects on people exposed to toxins associated with this spill. Below I outline my reasoning:

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)

Abolishing the Prison Industrial Complex --An interview with Criminal Injustice Kos
Angola 3 News
2010-07-13 1:00 AM
 If one accepts, as I do, that prisons in the US are a contemporary extension of chattel slavery, that prisons are irredeemably rooted in racism and classism that prisons serve no purpose save corporate profit and raw retribution, then one must call for their abolition. Prison “reform” is insufficient if the very notion and reality of prison itself is grounded in inequality, injustice and destruction. (image/jpeg)
