English News and Press Release on Colombia about Peacekeeping and Peacebuilding and Protection and Human Rights; published on 13 Aug 2020 by WOLA

Five kids aged 14 to 16 years old were found dead in the poor neighborhood of Llano Verde, in Cali, Colombia, this past Tuesday (August 11th). It is suspected that the kids were murdered because they refused to be recruited into gangs. The massacre has caused a lot of sadness in the Afro-Colombian community and beyond. Another horrible act of violence occurred yesterday (August 13th), during the funeral service that was held in honor of the victims, a grenade exploded and left one dead and 15 injured. All of this happened in a neighborhood populated mostly by families that arrived recently to Cali from rural parts of the country that they had to escape because of the armed conflict. After being displaced by violence from their territories, forced to leave under the threats of paramilitary groups, they arrived to the city only to live in neighborhoods where they are exposed to more poverty and violence…  But do Black Lives Matter outside of the US?  Please say their names…  Juan Manuel Montaño, 15 years old. Jean Paul Perlaza, 15 years old. Leyder Cardenas, 15 years old. Alvaro Jose Caicedo, 14 years old. Jair Andres Cortez, 14 years old.

“Mad women fight back”; “Bet your ass we’re paranoid” - Psychiatric survivors during a protest in 1976

[bananapeppers]

the woman on the right is Saralinda Grimes, and I believe that this photo may have been taken at the June 29–July 29, 1976 sleep-in in the office of California Governor Jerry Brown enacted by members of Network Against Psychiatric Assault and Women Against Psychiatric Assault, documented in Madness Network News 4, no. 1 (1976). I welcome correction.

in her own words, Saralinda Grimes was a “deaf Native American lesbian feminist” (Madness Network News 4, no. 3 [1977], 9). she was active with Women Against Psychiatric Assault.

​"To be hopeful in bad times in not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, and kindness.  What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places– and there are so many– where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.“ Howard Zinn

… men act and women appear. Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at. This determines not only most relations between men and women but also the relation of women to themselves. The surveyor of woman in herself is male; the surveyed female. Thus she turns herself into an object—and most particularly an object of vision: a sight.

John Berger, Ways of Seeing.

so important.

Identity is a prison! Let yourself respond authentically to each moment as it arrives, without being bound to the narrative of who you think you are! The self is a construct! The truth of your existence is ever changing and infinite as the universe is ever changing and infinite! Abandon the stories of your past selves and be present and alive in this very moment! IDENTITY IS DEAD! THE SELF IS DEAD! YOU ARE ALIVE!

not voting isn’t refusing to play the game. You’re in this country, you’re subject to the game whether you like it or not. The only way not to play is to leave, and the vast majority of us don’t have that option.

Not voting is playing the game but saying ‘pass’ every time your turn comes up and then wondering why you lost.

Making young people not vote is actually a tactic used in politics to keep the satus quo. The young vote is always the one for change, so dissuading them from voting at all is actually a political tactic used by the people in charge to keep themselves there. Voting is rebellion.

What do we say to people who say “gradually pushing our agenda forward via the electoral system won’t work for the far left”?

We say “it sure worked for the far right”
