2 US lawmakers tour Aqsa with right-wing Jews | Maan News Agency

Two members of the US Congress on Thursday joined right-wing Jews who toured the al-Aqsa Mosque compound escorted by Israeli police officers, a Jerusalem-based Fatah official said.

Dimitri Daliani told Ma’an that Republicans Bill Johnson of Ohio and David McKinley of Virginia entered the compound with the “extremist” Chaim Richman, director of the rightist Temple Institute.

Daliani said the “congressmen’s participation in such criminal incursions into the al-Aqsa Mosque without being questioned by their own government indicates collusion with settler gangs whose aim is to hurt the al-Aqsa Mosque.”

Daliani urged Arab and Muslim communities in the United States districts represented by those representatives to “punish them at the ballots.”

Nuestra Vida, Nuestra Voz

By Jessica González-Rojas, executive director for National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health (NLIRH)

This week Destiny Lopez, board chair for NLIRH, and I are fasting in solidarity with our herman@s  from Women’s Fast for Families – a national project calling for fair immigration reform and an immediate end to deportations. By fasting with our allies across the country, we are trying to tap into the courage, compassion, and common sensibilities of our elected officials in order to encourage them to address our country’s flawed immigration policies and practices.

Under our current administration, approximately two million people have been deported, which has torn families apart and left countless children without their parents. The time is now for these practices to stop. Our elected officials need to work together to establish a new system that facilitates a pathway to citizenship…

“Your Right to Self Care” video by the Marsa Sexual Health Center

Hummus For Thought

The Marsa Sexual Health Center released a video in which they asked over 20 women living in Lebanon intimate questions about their perception of their body and their relationship with it.

Located in Hamra, Marsa Sexual Health Center has one primary goal: “to provide social, psychological, and medical services to all sexually active individuals in Lebanon regardless of gender, age, and sexual orientation in complete confidentiality.” It offers free HIV, Hepatitis B & C testing for everyone, medical consults & follow-ups for STIs as well as psychological & social counseling.

My 500LL:

In our patriarchal society, Lebanese women are still restricted by ‘moral’ guidelines that are rarely, if ever, applied to men. They’re expected to pretend as though their sexuality comes second because, as usual, a man’s sexual needs come first. Patriarchy essentially demands that a woman’s vagina be kept hidden from all thoughts. She doesn’t really own it. It belongs to Society, Religion and…

TV journalist kidnapped three days ago, still missing – Reporters Without Borders

Reporters Without Borders is very worried about TV journalist Nairobi Pinto, who has been missing since 6 April, when her sister saw two masked individuals kidnap her outside her home on the outskirts of Caracas.

Pinto works for the TV news channel Globovisión as director of all its regional news bureaux. Her kidnappers have not contacted her family at any time since her abduction.

“Journalists are on the front line at this particularly sensitive time in Venezuela, the victims of both police harassment and popular anger,” said Camille Soulier, the head of the Reporters Without Borders Americas desk.
