Justice Department Issues Guidance on Ballot Drop Box Accessibility Requirements Under the Americans with Disabilities Act | OPA | Department of Justice

“The right to vote is the fundamental right upon which our democracy is built,” said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “For too long in our history, many voters with disabilities have faced barriers in exercising their voting rights. Many of these barriers continue even today, including physical barriers that prevent them from entering polling places or accessing a ballot drop box. The ADA requires election officials to select and provide accessible ballot drop box locations so that voters with disabilities can have the same voting opportunities as other voters. The Justice Department is fully committed to vigorous enforcement of the ADA to ensure that voters with disabilities no longer face discrimination in the election process.”

Workers in Turkey are pushing back on low wages amid economic crisis · Global Voices

Across the country, workers are protesting rising living costs and stagnating wages as Turkey faces its worst economic crisis in decades, with the annual inflation reaching 48.7 percent, the highest since President Erdoğan took power two decades ago. Independent economists say the actual inflation rate likely twice the official numbers. As a resultFitch Ratings, “cut Turkey’s sovereign credit rating further into junk, citing factors including the nation’s vulnerability to high inflation.”

Courier strikes

Despite an almost 50 percent increase of the minimum wage in December 2021, and promises by President Erdoğan to protect workers against the soaring prices, Turks continue to grapple with the new financial crisis as purchasing power decreased amid double-digit inflation and price hikes on gas, electricity, petrol, and road tolls as well as food and beveragesAccording to the Confederation of Turkish Trade Unions (Türk-İş) “Turkey’s poverty threshold increased to TRY 13,844 in January, more than three times the minimum wage [TRY 4,250].”

It is against this backdrop that workers have taken to the streets in recent weeks, crossing occupational and class divides to demand fairer treatment.

«Gli sciamani Yanomami che combattono l’epidemia di xawara vedono apparire l’immagine della malattia sotto forma di bande di stoffa scarlatta. L’epidemia di xawara si sta avvicinando e il suo fumo risplende! Rende il cielo un fantasma e divora tutto Umani in arrivo! Deve essere cacciato!»

Gli sciamani della regione dell’Alto Orinoco dell’Amazzonia, in Venezuela, mi descrissero, oru a wakëxi, il fumo d’oro in questi termini decenni prima che leggessi le parole di Davi. Mentre sognavo sulla mia amaca allo shabono Yanomami, ho visto la scultura totemica che avrei creato più tardi al mio ritorno a Parigi. In un altro sogno, ho visto la mia scultura bruciare. Avevo programmato di…

Turkish Tuesdays, and Three Lessons from s1e2, Hakan:Muhafiz/The Protector, About Learning!

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

What do we learn from this episode, and then, my impressions of this second episode.

(note on the Turkish, this week: due to lack of time, most of the special characters are lacking in the Turkish, but it is still understandable to Turkish speakers…)

1. “…egitimsiz . Onu sen egiteceksin.”

“…untrained. You are going to train him.” -Zeynep’s Lesson: Sometimes you have to teach people you don’t like.

2. “Sizinle calismak icin yeterli degil. … Gorecegiz.”

“He’s not good enough to work for you. … We’ll see.” -Leyla Hanim’s Lesson: Sometimes a person is more than he seems: he has potential.

3. “Nefes almayi unutma.”

“Don’t forget to breathe.” -New nurse’s Leson: Also don’t forget that the nice person reminding you to “breathe” may also be “Social Engineering” something out of you! 🙂

(if that term is used outside of White Hat society: Social Engineering was a 1990’s euphemism for…
