Myanmar authorities re-arrest more than 100 political prisoners after amnesty — Radio Free Asia

Authorities in Myanmar have re-arrested at least 110 political prisoners freed earlier this week—some within hours of their release—suggesting that the amnesty was only a bid by the junta to appease the international community amid criticism of its rule, observers said Thursday.

Nearly nine months after the military’s Feb. 1 coup, security forces have killed 1,183 civilians and arrested at least 7,031, according to the Bangkok-based Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (AAPP)—mostly during crackdowns on anti-junta protests.

One Summer: a poem in memory of Stephen Lawrence by Ann-Margaret Lim

Petchary's Blog

Jamaican poet Ann-Margaret Lim was published on the Academy of American Poets’ Poem-a-Day today (October 21).

The poem is a memorial to Stephen Lawrence, the 18-year-old who was murderedby a gang of white thugs at a bus stop in London in 1993. Investigations into the murder were rife with corruption allegations, and a subsequent inquiry revealed the underbelly of racism in British society – and, indeed, institutional racism. Two men were eventually found guilty of Stephen’s murder in 2012. Stephen’s father said that his son’s murder “opened the country’s eyes” to racism. The case is now “inactive” according to the police.

You Can Now Order Abortion Pills Before You’re Pregnant in All 50 States

Just before Texas’ 6-week abortion ban took effect on September 1, online medication abortion provider Aid Access began to let Texans who aren’t pregnant order the pills to prepare for a future unwanted pregnancy. This is a concept known as “advanced provision,” and it’s akin to having emergency contraception waiting in your medicine cabinet before you actually need it. It’s especially helpful for people living in rural areas or in places hostile to birth control and abortion.

Now, Aid Access has quietly rolled out advanced provision of abortion pills to people capable of pregnancy in all 50 states—a move that could revolutionize how people obtain and think about early abortion care in the US.
