"FROM COLOMBIA TO PALESTINE MAY ALL COLONIZER FALL
There are direct links between the violence we are seeing around the global South, yankee imperialism keeps killing our people across the globe. US imperialism is doing this to Palestine they are actively aiding funding and supporting the colonisation of Palestine by Israel , US and European guns and funds are killing Colombian youths, it was the Israeli army who trained the Brazilian police who kills black children weekly in the favelas
Solidarity to all fighting imperialism"
I usually don’t do this, but right now I feel the need to.
I can’t just be quiet about it and act like nothing is happening, because it hurts and breaks my heart to see everything that’s going on in my country right now.
It would mean the world to me if you could get informed and spread awareness of what’s going on in my country right now.
Colombia is a country that has always battled with violence and corruption, but lately this abuse of power has overstepped the line, and people are tired.
Why is this happening?
On April 15, our president Ivan Duque introduced a tax reform to cover the fiscal gap caused by the pandemic. This reform, affected the working class and worsened their situation of vulnerability during the pandemic.
That same Wednesday, thousands of Colombians went out to the streets, the vast majority peacefully, to demand the withdrawal of the Tax Reform from Congress and the resignation of Finance Minister Alberto Carrasquilla. In the afternoon there were outbreaks of violence and confrontations between protesters and the Police, which led to complaints of police abuse.
Duque refused to withdraw the reform and opened a space for dialogue. Which was not accepted and the citizens decided to continue to protests on the streets to this day.
Why are we still protesting if our minister resigned and the tax reform was withdrawn?
On May the 2nd, our president announced that the tax reform was withdrawn. However, this decision did not put an end to the protests. The protesters continued their claims for the death of at least a dozen people throughout the country, especially in Cali, by shots and abused carried out by the Public Force.
What was Duque’s response?
Duque's response was to send more force and militarize the cities, which was rejected by the citizens who announced that they would continue to complain against measures promoted by the government, such as the reform of the health system and the use of the glyphosate.
Right now, the government is deploying war tanks to combat against the protestors.
“#ParoNacional1M🔥| Se reportan capturas masivas de manifestantes en Medellín. ESMAD ha reprimido la movilización, Policías han disparado arm
What is the media doing about it?
Nothing, and it’s making the situation even worse.
The national media outlets are so biased that they reported a video of one of the biggest protests in Cali, -which is the city with the most deaths, registering eleven, most of whom are young people who were at the protest and were shot dead- as a manifestation in support of the tax reform.

For @fyeahmyths Springmythevent Day 2: South American Deity
The goddess Chía is a triple goddess in the religion of the Muisca who inhabited the Altiplano Cundiboyacense in pre-Columbian times. Also referred as the muiscan moon goddess. Of central importance to the pantheon, she was worshipped across various Muisca lands. In one of her many functions, Chía was considered to be the patron deity of the Zipa ruler, who governed the territory encompassing what is now Bogotá. Her ceremonial center was located in or around the city of Chía, Cundinamarca, which was aptly named after the goddess.The chyquys; priests of the sacred calendar, were in charge of the ceremonies dedicated to the goddess, which included offerings of gold and ceramic artwork.
Complex hydraulic systems built by the Muisca people helped define the vibrant urban wetlands of Colombia’s capital city.
The wetlands of Bogotá—humedales in Spanish—are one of the most important and biodiverse ecosystems in Colombia’s sprawling capital city. They are the backbone of many conservation efforts as they contribute to the improvement of water and air quality, mitigate floods, and provide habitat to endemic and migratory species.
The wetlands are the product not only of the ecological conditions of the area but also of the construction and later deactivation of a complex hydraulic system established by Indigenous groups that populated the territory in the pre-Columbian period, as explained in a paper published in SPAL-Revista de Prehistoria y Arqueología by Lorena Rodríguez Gallo, a history professor and researcher at Universidad Nacional de Colombia. Rodríguez’s work describes how humans have transformed this landscape over thousands of years.
Today several parts of the Bogotá region, which occupies a high-altitude plateau (averaging 2,550 meters) in the Colombian Andes known as the Bogotá savanna, are flooded during the rainy season every year. The region’s clay soil has low permeability, and the floods routinely damage roads, homes, and businesses.
Five hundred years ago, however, the city looked very different. Although the region surrounding Bogotá was, according to Rodríguez, “a highly floodable plain with difficult [natural] drainage,” Indigenous groups developed and operated a sophisticated system that used the region’s floods to their advantage.
Rodríguez’s work documenting the engineered landscape of pre-Columbian Bogotá challenges the idea that Indigenous groups lived in equilibrium with nature. In fact, she said, the connection is more of a dialectical, interdependent relationship, where the Indigenous groups and nature were part of a give and take that benefited humans and encouraged biodiversity as they transformed their environment.
The Muisca hydraulic system, for instance, was a response to the constant floods of the region. The system let the Muiscas produce high quantities of food and create mitigation zones with high biodiversity: terrestrial and wetland plants, as well as animals such as white-tailed deer, birds, fish, ducks, and freshwater mollusks. This relationship is not unique and can be found in ancient Indigenous systems around the world. The Ma’dan people, for example, made elevated platforms for cultivation in the southern wetlands of Iraq.
Saturday, we gather. 💚🌿🌼✊ What better way to spend the day after Solstice, than making medicine in community? 💚 Our intention is to unite local herbalists, plant lovers, and friends to cultivate the herbalism community in South Florida + send some love and good healing medicine to our brothers and sisters seeking asylum at the US/Mexico border. 💚 Come plant seeds for us to grow and collaborate together into 2019 and beyond. We will gather from 1pm-3pm to make a skin soothing and wound healing salve. 💚 No experience necessary-class will be in session for those who want to learn and gain hands on experience:) 💚 Sliding scale suggested donation $5-20 to cover costs of supplies and shipping. 🌿I hope you can join us🌿 ✨Parking at the daycare center is great. If that if full, Costco parking lot is available. #herbalactivism #herbalistsofinstagram #decolonizeyourmedicine #floridaherbalist #communityherbalism #communityorganizing https://www.instagram.com/p/BrmIhMCnud9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pcauupx1jyj1
Cosmic mirrors be about that glow up. Have not seen this goddess in 7 years and here we are both doing work in holistic healing arts and holding sacred space at the @hulaweenfl Oasis. Her sound healing was transcendent and magical 😍🌀🌈💖 OMG this is REAL LIFE 💞💃💃🎶🔥🎉✨ #twinning #reunitedanditfeelssogood #hulaween2018 #cosmicmirrors #shaktirising (at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpkAE8glOtC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4psbnxj18avd
🌹💖💃💅✨ It is that holy poetry and singing we are after. … It is the wild singing we are after, our chance to use the wild language we are learning by heart under the sea. When a woman speaks her truth, fires up her intention and feeling, staying tight with the instinctive nature, she is singing, she is living in the wild breath-stream of the soul. To live this way is a cycle in itself, one meant to go on, go on, go on. -Danielle LaPorte

Aloe or Sabila, beautiful and medicinal succulent. A couple of weeks ago my uncle, who is almost fully blind due to diabetes, shared with me that he was able to maintain some eyes cells functioning because he drinks fresh aloe juice every morning. He even went to check with his doctor who was surprised at how his eye cells were showing some regeneration after he started using aloe. Here is what he does: he gets the ‘panca’, he does a horizontal cut (around 4 inches), gets the pulp out and blends it with some water (i think lemon will be also good with this) and drinks it. To save the panca from getting dry, he buries it in dirt until the next day when he will cut another piece of the aloe. I am sharing this in case you know people that have diabetes and want to try something else and also maybe to start talking about how we can prevent and support diabetes through decolonial foods… Arequipa has a growing number of people suffering from diabetes, this shit is so deeply connected with globalization and neoliberalism yall! DECOLONIZE EVERYTHING. What else have you, your friends, or family used to control/treat or prevent diabetes?
