” VOCÊ NÃO TEM OUTRO ASSUNTO PRA FALAR AO INVÉS DE FICAR ATACANDO OS HOMENS?”

Essa foi a pergunta que um homem me fez outro dia no tik.tok. Obviamente, eu foi muito eduacada ao respondê-lo. De imediato, fixei um texto, e no dia seguinte, o respondi em vídeo.
É impressionante, observar como, o homem que pratica a violência, ele quer ” agir conforme a sua vontade. Quer agir, sem ser questionado sobre o seu papel de macho “. É como se ele, ao se comportar como um selvagem, afirmasse ” olha sociedade, aceite esse meu comportamento violento, sem questionar as razões pelas quais, eu possa agir dessa maneira”. Esse detalhe é tão notório, que o homem que pensa dessa forma ( não todos) tenta justificar tamanha brutalidade de forma natural.

Gold Fever, COVID-19 and the Genocide of the Yanomami – update

Barbara Crane Navarro

I’ve been dreading this news ever since the first cases of COVID-19 were reported in Brazil on February 25th. Now it has happened. After testing positive for coronavirus, Alvanei Xirixana, a 15 year old Yanomami boy died on April 10th in the hospital in Roraima, the Brazilian state where most of the Yanomami territorial reserve is located. The teenager complained of chest pains, difficulty breathing, a sore throat and a fever. Reportedly, his community had to threaten the health team after his transportation request was denied in order to have him taken to the General Hospital of Roraima. When he arrived at the hospital, he was sent to the intensive care unit and intubated. The boy was from a community on the Uraricoera river which has long been plagued by gold miners.

Climate Change is Killing the Crappy Fake Lake of My Youth – a microcosm of the climate-change induced water woes facing the West as global temperatures rise and droughts become more severe — Mother Jones — Barbara Crane Navarro

Ogden, Utah, is a long way from the beach. To the west is the Great Salt Lake, a huge salty body of water, but one so stagnant, buggy, and smelly that no one would want to swim in it more than once. So instead, when I was growing up in Ogden, we went to Pineview Reservoir.… Climate […]

Jolly Monday On … Er … What’s That Day??? | Filosofa’s Word

Today is February 14th which means it is Valentine’s Day … whoopee.  I guess I’m not a very romantic person, for I’ve always found Valentine’s Day to be rather silly, but … this year, we need all the love, joy, and humour we can get in our lives, so for what I believe is the…
