We all have rights, says Stand Up for Jamaica. Who are you to tell us otherwise?

Petchary's Blog

Is there something that we humans don’t understand about “human rights for all?”

I wonder sometimes. Here is commentary from Stand Up for Jamaica, which makes perfect sense to me. J-FLAG, which used to represent the LGBTQ community, apparently had nothing to say on the matter.

I also had concerns about therecent public opinion pollby Don Anderson (but it made a great headline), as did Dr. Damien King of the University of the West Indies, who pointed out in a couple of tweets: “The opinion of a majority is irrelevant on questions of human rights. This question should not have been the been the subject of a poll and should not have been published.

A Maria da Penha é um ” caminho” que conduz a mulher que é vítima de violência doméstica a pedir ajuda. Sem dúvida, uma lei que encoraja a mulher a não sofrer calada.

Democrat Mary Peltola (D) wins special election in Alaska, defeating Palin – The Washington Post

Democrat Mary Peltola has won a special election for the U.S. House in Alaska, defeating Republican Sarah Palin and becoming the first ever Alaska Native to win a seat in Congress as well as the first woman to clinch the state’s at-large district.

Peltola, who’s Yup’ik, is a tribal fisheries manager and former state representative who led in initial counts after the Aug. 16 election. But her win wasn’t assured until Wednesday, when Alaska officials made decisive second-choice counts using the state’s new ranked choice voting system. Republican Nick Begich III, was eliminated, and his supporters’ second choice votes were redistributed.

Peltola’s win flips a seat that had long been in Republican hands. She will serve the remainder of a term left open by the sudden death of GOP Rep. Don Young in March. Young represented Alaska in Congress for 49 years.
