Brokers Are STILL Selling Stolen Indigenous Land on Facebook TWO WEEKS After the BBC denounced this crime! However, Facebook takes down photos of traditional indigenous people that “violate Community Standards” within HOURS of being posted!

I consider the photo above to be obscene and unconscionable…

“The white people claim these land drawings have a price and this is why they trade them for money…their leaders constantly tell themselves ‘We are powerful! We will possess the entire forest. Let its inhabitants die!”- Yanomami spokesman and shaman Davi Kopenawa from Roraima, Brazil, The Falling Sky

The Last Living Paratrooper from MacArthur’s return ….. | Pacific Paratrooper

Richard Adams describes General MacArthur as “quite a guy.”

In commemoration of the 75th year of World War II in the Philippines, one of its heroes returned. Richard “Dick” Adams visited Corregidor once again, but this time, he did not parachute out of a C-47 plane to land on the towering trees of the Rock. The 98-year-old understandably opted to ride a ferry.

He was recently, poignantly, at the MacArthur Suite of the Manila Hotel, in a room dedicated to Gen. Douglas MacArthur, who led the American and Filipino troops in liberating the country from Japanese occupation. MacArthur actually stayed in that suite for six years, as Manila Hotel’s honorary general manager.

It was a time of fear across the country as Japanese forces ravaged Manila and the countryside. People clung to MacArthur’s words, “I shall return,” which he said after he was forced to abandon the Philippine island fortress of Corregidor under orders from U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt in March 1942. Left behind at Corregidor and the Bataan Peninsula were 90,000 American and Filipino soldiers, who, lacking food, supplies, and support, would soon succumb to the Japanese offensive.

Living a Creative and Open Life

Working women and men from Asia, Europe, the Americas, the Middle-East and Africa say they want to experience the totality of existence, an Open Life, and not a constricted or broken life. What they have in common is the courage to look within and beyond and to trust what appears to be a deep sense of belonging, of wholeness, of connectedness, and of openness to the infinite.

Amanda Gorman Says Security Guard Confronted Her, Saying She Looked ‘Suspicious’ – The New York Times

Amanda Gorman, who became a national sensation when she delivered a stirring poem at President Biden’s inauguration in January, said on Friday that a security guard had followed her home and told her she looked suspicious.

“A security guard tailed me on my walk home tonight,” Ms. Gorman wrote on Twitter. “He demanded if I lived there because ‘you look suspicious.’ I showed my keys & buzzed myself into my building. He left, no apology. This is the reality of black girls: One day you’re called an icon, the next day, a threat.”
