«Les chamans Yanomami qui combattent l’épidémie de xawara voient l’image de la maladie apparaître sous la forme de bandes de tissu écarlate. L’épidémie de xawara approche et sa fumée est rougeoyante! Elle fait du ciel un fantôme et dévore tous les êtres humains en son chemin! Il faut le chasser!»

– Davi Kopenawa, porte-parole des Yanomami et chaman, Roraima, Brésil, d’après son livre «La chute du ciel»

«Les chamans Yanomami luttent contre le xawara – la fumée des épidémies»

Les chamans de la région du Haut-Orénoque en Amazonie, au Venezuela, m’ont décrit – oru a wakëxi – la fumée d’or en ces termes des décennies avant que je lis les paroles de Davi. En rêvant dans mon hamac dans la maison collective Yanomami, le shabono, j’ai vu…

More than 100 Afghans from music school flown out of country

More than 100 students, alumni and faculty members of the Afghanistan National Institute of Music have been flown out of Kabul on their way to Portugal, where the government has agreed to grant them asylum, the institute’s director said Monday.

They were on board a flight carrying 235 people out of Kabul’s international airport to Qatar on Sunday. It was the largest airlift of Afghan nationals since Taliban fighters seized Afghanistan in mid-August, two weeks before the U.S. and NATO withdrew their forces from the country after a 20-year military presence.

“You cannot imagine how happy I am. Yesterday I was crying for hours,” the school’s founder and director, Ahmad Sarmast, said from his home in Melbourne, Australia.

The musicians join tens of thousands of Afghans, including many from the country’s sports and arts scene, who have fled since August. Among the recent evacuees are Afghanistan’s female robotics team, known as the “Afghan Dreamers,” and a girls soccer team who resettled in Mexico and Portugal, respectively.

Susan Collins (Maine), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Chuck Grassley (Iowa), Mitch McConnell (Ky.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Mike Rounds (S.D.).

GOP lawmaker blocks $27M in COVID funds because vaccines contain “living organisms with tentacles” / LGBTQ Nation (Me: This is what happens when you drink QAnon kool-aide)

A Republican lawmaker in New Hampshire is being denounced by his own party’s leaders for his bizarre claims about the COVID-19 vaccines, which included that the vaccines contain “living organism(s) with tentacles.” And he’s currently blocking millions of dollars in federal COVID-19 aid while he embarrasses the state GOP.

State Rep. Kenneth Weyler (R) emailed a 52-page “report” to his colleagues about COVID-19 and the vaccines with numerous ridiculous claims, including that the pandemic was a plot developed by leaders in the Vatican, London, and D.C. to control people’s thoughts with 5G technology.

Revealed: pipeline company paid Minnesota police for arresting and surveilling protesters | Minnesota | The Guardian

The Minnesota Public Utilities Commission, which regulates pipelines, decided rural police should not have to pay for increased strain from Line 3 protests. As a condition of granting Line 3 permits, the commission required Enbridge to set up an escrow account to reimburse police for responding to demonstrations.

Enbridge told the Guardian an independent account manager allocates the funds, and police decide when protesters are breaking the law. But records obtained by the Guardian show the company meets daily with police to discuss intelligence gathering and patrols. And when Enbridge wants protesters removed, it calls police or sends letters.

“Our police are beholden to a foreign company,” Tara Houska, founder of the Indigenous frontline group Giniw Collective, told the Guardian. “They are working hand in hand with big oil. They are actively working for a company. Their duty is owed to the state of Minnesota and to the tribal citizens of Minnesota.”
