Solidarity for Mike Brown in Eugene, Oregon! Posted: 20 Aug 2014 09:35 AM PDT The students of the University of Oregon hosted a vigil for Mike Brown on August 14 at 7pm. The candle light gathering started at 7pm and then we continued with a march of silence to downtown Eugene. At the end of the march we shared comments, sang the Black National Anthem and had a 3 minute moment of silence in honor of those who are victims to senseless shootings. The dress code suggested was all black attire or a black bandanna on your left arm. It was encouraged to show solidarity. Students, faculty, community members and news stations were in attendance.

Police, not protesters, engaging in "senseless violence" Posted: 19 Aug 2014 11:08 AM PDT My comment as a resident of St. Louis, MO who has witnessed the protests firsthand: The (mostly white) commentators in the media have been decrying the "senseless violence" of protesters in Ferguson, Mo. What we are witnessing in Ferguson is not "senseless violence". It is a rational reaction to the actual senseless violence perpetrated by the cops on innumerable young black men. Black people have the right to fight back against those who are killing their children, and white people do not have the right to tell black people how they should feel or react to being repeatedly being victimized by the senseless violence perpetrated by racist white police.

Tokyo Cools Down with Water Festival Posted: 18 Aug 2014 11:38 AM PDT Heading out in my local neighbourhood this weekend and I caught one of Tokyo's most interesting and fun festivals. Where usually Japanese festivals involve portable shrines being carried through the town, this festival had a fun summery twist! The shire carriers were doused with gallons on water! Even Tokyo's firefighters took to the streets to douse the festival participants. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
