TheAngryindian Interviews: Pascal Uccelli

Editor‘s Note: While there is a lot to be desired in terms of mainstream social media, there are gems to be found for those interested in social justice and human rights. One such activist is France‘s Pascal Uccelli, artist and editor of the l‘ecriture sans calmants blog. I asked him a few questions via eMail about the active rolling revolution for democracy in Africa and Arabia, the current state of political unrest in the European Union and, will the Internet truly change the world for the better? „TheAngryindian Interviews: Pascal Uccelli“ weiterlesen

Editorial: John Mayer, White Supremacy and Euro-Settler Insecurities

Revised: 2.12.10 | Editor’s Note: This commentary is in response to a reader who took offence to this newswire’s reportage of the John Mayer “Racist Genitals” controversy. This writer is not accusing the reader of being a racial bigot and this article should not be assumed as such.  I trust that the respondent is quite sincere in addressing racial bias, but I am merely pointing out that his rush to defend White society as a separate entity from Mayer’s remarks is a very important dynamic of the American “race problem” and one that White Americans need to acknowledge if they are at all serious about “solving” the US’s dirty closet of discrimination. „Editorial: John Mayer, White Supremacy and Euro-Settler Insecurities“ weiterlesen

The man who murdered Count Folke Bernadotte died, but his evil example is still very much with us

London’s Daily Telegraph has become a weird newspaper, owned by twin brothers who are creepy characters and whose purchase of the publication caused many a shudder. The paper has become a dismal tabloid caricature of its formerly dignified self.

The Angryindian Interviews: Kalonji Changa of the FTP Movement

Editor‘s Note: This was another interview I was really looking forward to. The FTP Movement on the Ning network has plenty of activity but one element stands out heads and shoulders above the crowd, the site originator Bro. Kalonji Changa.

I have watched this busy young man use the democratic power of the Internet to dispel and dislodge the rumour that African men are not concerned with uplifting their own people and other oppressed populations across the world. I admire his tenacity, his organisational skills and the clarity of his political perspective and it shows in his sincere efforts to raise the consciousness and condition of the African Diaspora. Let this brief interview lead you to learn more at the FTP Movement. It‘s more than just another social networking community for African folks, its a movement making inroads in freedom of the African mind. Get on board.

BUSH WAR CRIMES ARE JEOPARDIZING PUBLIC HEALTH IN AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ

As commander-in-chief of the military, former President George W. Bush was responsible for U.S. attacks on hospitals in Iraq and Afghanistan, the mistreatment of their personnel and patients, and the denial of medical supplies to them and to the general populations of those nations, an authority on war crimes says.

Aboriginal News Service (IANS) Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine

Press Release: IANS Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine


Intelligent Aboriginal News Service (IANS) Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine

1.6.2009

“Total war is no longer war waged by all members of one national community against all those of another. It is total… because it may well involve the whole world.”

Jean-Paul Sartre

As Indigenous people fully conscious of our own respective colonial circumstances and those of other similarly repressed and oppressed peoples, we, the undersigned, maintain that the latest saturation bombing and subsequent ground invasion of a Palestinian refugee concentration camp is not just and that the continued IDF occupation extends this grave injustice. The defenceless people of The Gaza, a refugee district of Occupied Palestine, have been mercilessly attacked by the State of Israel under the auspices of national “self-defence.” This is clearly a false pretence, as it is now known that the Israeli intelligence and military services secretly planned this attack more than six months ago as part of “Operation Cast Lead”,[1] a covert programme of anti-Palestinian propaganda, premeditated sabotage of the Hamas government during the U.S.-sponsored June 2007 truce agreement and extensive ethnic terrorism directed against the refugee Arab Palestinian population of The Gaza. It is also now common knowledge that the Israeli Defence Forces have begun using cluster bombs, denatured uranium and the horrible chemical weapon, white phosphorus, a compound that burns human beings on contact.[2]
