Sense of brotherhood and sisterhood! – Silent Songs of Sonsnow

“People inflict pain on others in their selfish pursuit of happiness and satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of brotherhood and sisterhood. We need to cultivate a sense of universal responsibility for one another and the planet we share.”

His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

« Ei – olhe para nós!
Nós vemos você
Tentamos te mostrar
Você nunca se preocupou em aprender nossa língua
Você estava sempre olhando para baixo
Avisamos desde o início
A terra está viva
Esta terra somos nós
Todos nós
Voce queria as pedras
Ouro
Suas coisas brilhantes
Títulos – Bandeiras – Lucros
Você chamou de progresso
Tentamos te ensinar
Mas você sempre foi tão ganancioso
Demais primitivo – demais selvagempara entender
Agora você ainda traz maldições sobre os Yanomami
Doenças
E mais uma vez vamos morrer
E todas as terras nativas são transformadas em
cinzas e lama
Cinco séculos
Você nunca olhou para cima para descobrir
O que seguramos no lugar
O próprio céu
Suas cidades podem ver isso
Suas culturas podem ver isso
Seus filhos podem ver isso
Podemos ver isso em seus pulmões
Respire fundo
Abra seus olhos e observe
Você pode finalmente ver?
Ajude os Yanomami a apoiarem o céu »

Saudi Arabia activist sentenced to 11 years in prison for ‘support’ of women’s rights | Saudi Arabia | The Guardian

A young women’s rights activist in Saudi Arabia was secretly sentenced to 11 years in prison by an anti-terrorism court after being arrested for “her choice of clothing and support for women’s rights”.

Saudi officials confirmed in a statement to the United National high commissioner for Human Rights that Manahel al-Otaibi was sentenced on 9 January for what the Saudi government called “terrorist offences”.

Al-Otaibi, who was sentenced in a secret hearing before the counter-terrorism court, was found guilty of charges related to a Saudi anti-terror law that criminalises the use of websites to “broadcasts or publishes news, statements, false or malicious rumors, or the like for committing a terrorist crime”…

Among other charges, Otaibi was accused by Saudi authorities of using a hashtag – translated to #societyisready – to call for an end to male guardianship rules. Her sister, Fouz al-Otaibi was also accused of not wearing decent clothing but was able to flee Saudi Arabia before her arrest.

Another sister, Maryam, is a known women’s rights advocate who was detained, held, and eventually released in 2017 for protesting guardianship rules.

Amnesty International and ALQST, a rights group, called on Saudi authorities to immediately and unconditionally release al-Otaibi and said her imprisonment “directly contradicts authorities’ narrative of reform and women’s empowerment”.

“With this sentence the Saudi authorities have exposed the hollowness of their much-touted women’s rights reforms in recent years and demonstrated their chilling commitment to silencing peaceful dissent,” said Bissan Fakih, Amnesty International’s campaigner on Saudi Arabia.
