Estonia remembers the Soviet deportations – Estonian World
In the summer of 1940 the Soviet Union occupied Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania as a result of the infamous Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact signed between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union on 23 August 1939. In the aftermath of World War II, Estonia lost approximately 17.5% of its population.

This is such a hard video to watch.
“Strangers step in when a man physically assaults a woman. Watch them laugh when it’s reversed”.
“The statistics in this video are for the UK. According to the CDC, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men in the U.S. “have experienced rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner.” In Spain, out of the total cases denounced in 2013, 5 in 7 victims were women, and 3 in 7 victims were men. People think the percentages of abused men are much lower, but reality would surprise them.
Video made by Mankind Initiative. The vid is highly edited, ergo not “real”, but the point is that it is intented to illustrate an issue, not to prove a specific scenario.

Multnomah County juvenile farmers market offers youth offenders a second chance | OregonLive.com
She and six other youth on probation in Multnomah County spent Thursday afternoon hawking veggies outside the county’s Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard headquarters. The youth, ages 15-18, are members of the Department of Community Justice’s Hands of Wonder Garden, a restorative justice program that helps young offenders re-establish trust within the community.
The kids do so while learning job skills and earning a paycheck — $599.99 for eight weeks, two days a week.
The program has been around for five years, but the kids only began selling their harvest in a farmers market-style atmosphere last year at the Juvenile Justice Center, 1401 N.E. 68th Ave. This year, the group has moved to a more visible location outside the county building.
