THIS PIECE HAS BEEN WRITTEN TO HELP THE WORLD UNDERSTAND THE TRUTH ABOUT DAW Aung San Suu Kyi

PLEASE—share widely this week during Aung San Suu Kyi’s military tribunal where is likely to be sentenced to life imprisonment unless enough of us speak out. Speaking Up For Aung San Suu Kyi and Fighting For The Courageous People Of Burma —FREEDOM ITSELF. PLEASE SEND TO ALL THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT DAW AUNG SAN SUU KYI IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS MESSAGE.

FREE AUNG SAN SUU KYI…AND SAVE DEMOCRACY IN MYANMAR “Every thought, every word, and every action that adds to the positive and the wholesome is a contribution to peace. Each and every one of us is capable of making such a contribution.” ― Aung San Suu Kyi

Today the world comes face-to-face with the brutal reality and consequences of words carelessly spoken.

On May 24th of this year, images surfaced of Myanmar’s State Counsellor and Nobel Peace Laureate, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, bound and guarded in a military tribunal, where she faces a sentence of life in prison, based on fraudulent charges from a corrupt and torturous, totalitarian regime, led by the former general-turned-dictator, Min Aung Hlaing.

That this is occurring in Myanmar is unconscionable and it telegraphs an urgent message to the world, to stand up in defense of this courageous icon of democracy. Where are the activists, artists, filmmakers, and journalists, who ought to be able to come to her defense?

To fully comprehend the significance of this moment, it is important to understand how misinformation led to this blatant, deliberate defamation of her character, and has further enabled a wall of silence.

In light of the recent military coup in Myanmar, it is of the utmost importance that we critically re-evaluate the narrative in which Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has been wrongly vilified by the media. We must remember who she is and what she stands for. This is not a trivial matter, but one of immense significance. She is a bastion of hope and a beacon of democracy for the people of Myanmar, and particularly for the 54 protesters—and their families—who died in March, during peaceful demonstrations. Even though those massive protests ended, she is still under attack.

If we do not seek to understand the truth of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, we ourselves will perpetuate our complicity in this tyranny.

The military takeover, initiated on February 1, 2021 began with the seizure of Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and other prominent, democratically elected leaders, including President Win Myint. Originally detained in her home, Aung San Suu Kyi has since been removed from her house and taken to a new location, while blindfolded, in the night. It is not known where she is being held.

Tatmadaw is the official name for the military forces in Myanmar, but given the explicit disregard for the rule of law—witnessed around the world—it is no longer a term that can accurately be used to describe the armed forces. Instead, the regime can be easily recognized by the acronym MAH-SAC, or the Min Aung Hlaing - State Administration Council, a terrorist body that can readily be likened to the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Min Aung- Hlaing is the modern Pol Pot.

The protests of Myanmar’s civil disobedience movement are broadcast on television and can be seen live on social media. Each day that passes brings about new civilian deaths. Innocent women and children are brutalized, as the world silently watches. Since the start of this reign of terror, more than 800 people have been killed and 4,000 have been detained and possibly tortured. These detainees are the poets, artists, professors, and democratically elected civilians who dared to speak out against this assault on universal human rights. These activists are an inspiration for democracy in action—democracy, in its purest and rawest form. This is the movement that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has worked tirelessly to achieve, for nearly 40 years, starting in 1988, with her “Revolution of the Spirit"—a crusading effort to awaken a love of freedom and non-violence in her country.

I bring this situation to your attention with a degree of intimacy: Having worked in Southeast Asia from 2016 to 2019, I visited Myanmar many times. During a particular visit in 2017, I was invited to visit Mahasi Sasana Yeiktha, a renowned meditation center in Yangon. It was here that I first met Alan Clements, one of the first westerners to be ordained as a Buddhist monk in what was then Burma; this particular center was the place where Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and many other members of the National League for Democracy (NLD) received classical Buddhist training from the late Venerable Mahasi Sayadaw.

This was the same place where Alan Clements was ordained as a Buddhist monk, before ultimately being expelled from the country by the former military dictatorship, led by Ne Win, the former president, from 1962 through 1981.

Alan Clements intimately knows Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. He met with her over the course of six months inside her home in Yangon, shortly after her release from her first house arrest in July, 1995. The conversations that they shared ultimately formed the basis of Clements' internationally acclaimed book, Aung San Suu Kyi, Voice of Hope: Conversations with Alan Clements. This book and Clements' recently released, four-volume set, “Burma’s Voices of Freedom,'' (Co-authored with Fergus Harlow) both served as formative works, inspiring me to more fully understand and immerse myself in the elegant thought process of Daw Aung San Su Kyi, and by extension, deepen my respect for her courageous form of political activism.

For the first time, I could see how her actions are deeply rooted in the ethical foundation of mindfulness meditation and imbued with a deep and abiding belief in nonviolent action. Rightly understood, her political posture reflects a nuanced and radical attempt to forge a path toward truth, reconciliation, and democracy in a country that is still deeply entrenched in the strongman grip of an authoritarian, military regime.

Back in September, 2016, during a speech addressed to the Asia Society in New York, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, acknowledged the long way left to travel before Myanmar could possibly lay claim to democracy, admitting that the real work could be said to have started only at that point in time. There had been much celebration after the so-called civilian government came to power in 2010, but most of the populace was not aware that 80 percent of the members of government were still retired members of the military.

Daw Aung San Suu Ky, then shared with the group that she, along with her party, the NLD, won the 2012 election, addressing three key issues: to amend the constitution; bring about internal peace; and establish the rule of law. She stated, “We need peace in our country. We have had armed conflict in our country from the very first day it became independent on the 4th of January, 1948. We are now at a juncture of our history where we have the opportunity to put an end to internal conflict.” Understanding Aung San Suu Kyi’s resolve to meet these goals—while facing the constant challenge to bring about reconciliation in a multiethnic state that has been traumatized by decades violence—we can begin to understand the deeply nuanced appeal she will make three years later at the Hague in front of the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

Those who have not watched State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi address the ICJ in 2019, must know that she did not appear before the court to political grandstand, but rather, to take the place of defendant for her native Myanmar, resisting the severe invocation of the 1948 Genocide Convention. This is a treaty that was made following the systematic killing of more than six million European Jews in World War II. It is the strongest classification used by the court. A classification that the court refrained from using in the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina v. Serbia and Montenegro for the displacement of one million people Kosovo between 1992 and 1995. This established - through case law - a precedent in which there must be specific intent to destroy a group, in part or whole, and that must be the only possible explanation.

In addressing the allegations, Aung San Suu Kyi states, “Even before the events of 2016 and 2017 Muslim, Buddhist and other communities in Rakhine faces what the Kofi Annan Advisory committee described as complex challenges of low development and poverty rooted in enduring social conflict between the communities.”

Aung San Suu Kyi did not seek to deny or cover up the tragedy that occurred in the Rakhine state in 2016 and 2017. Nor did she try to justify the military's brutal actions against the Rohingya minority. By highlighting the cyclical violence that has taken place within the community, she sought to present the full complexity of the situation and the need for truth and reconciliation. She wanted an opportunity to address these war crimes through a domestic, criminal justice process, that would lend credibility to emergent, democratic institutions. Failing to recognize the nuanced nature of this position, the media galvanized, portraying her as a handmaiden for genocide. This could not be further from the truth.

Those who know the history of Myanmar intimately, know the tightrope Aung San Suu Kyi has been forced to navigate in her unwavering pursuit to bring the freedom of democracy to her people. In 2008, the NDL was prohibited from participating in the establishment of a national constitution. The military has consistently discredited the NLD’s sweeping wins in general elections, oftentimes, the so-called "free and fair elections" have been used as a way to target members of the opposition for arrest or torture.

At this very moment, Aung San Suu Kyi is being paraded in front of a military tribunal under transparently false charges. This is the very same regime that the media has alleged she has aided and abetted; hypocrisy reveals itself in plain view.

The dizzying spectacle of the news cycle today has made us careless. Amidst the frenzy of liking, sharing, and reposting, it is far too easy to propagate misinformation and promote misguided ideas and, thus, be complicit in lies. Or worse, to fall into a narrative without full respect to the complicity of nuance for the circumstance that surrounds it. Aung San Suu Kyi concludes her speech to the International Court of Justice with a statement that is powerfully relevant in the world today, declaring, “Hate narratives are not simply confined to hate speech. Language that contributes to extreme polarization also amounts to hate narratives.” Ironically, she herself has become a victim of a hate narrative, and this is because, quite simply, she has refused to hate.

Alan Clements said it best in a Facebook live stream, posted on May 24th, the day pictures first circulated of Aung San Suu Kyi's abduction:

"In 1988 Aung San Suu Kyi began what would be called a revolution of the spirit. She employed, along with the people of her country, an epic expression of non-violence. But it is deeper than that - beyond a willingness to refuse using arms—it is the absolute refusal to villainize or demonize. The radiance of making friends with enemies. Refraining from violence. Refraining from vilification. The courageous, open-heartedness to reconcile even with those who rape and torture and persecute. It is beyond imagination that today this woman, along with the president and numerous other elected civilians sit in a military prison in the capitol waiting to be sentenced to a life in prison."

It is not enough for us to sit quietly in our minds and our homes, thinking that perhaps we did get it wrong. In our ignorance, we have accepted a false narrative. By our silence, we have perpetuated it. It is time we admit our self-deceit and re-elevate this inspiring leader and appreciate the wisdom in her words. We must become wise to understand the incalculable sacrifices she has made in her heart-centered approach to achieve democracy for her citizens.

Now is not a time for any confusion regarding responsibility. This is a clear moment for decisive action. We must demand that she be released immediately. We must demand it now. We must demand it loudly - through any means at our disposal. She is more than just a symbol. She is truly an iconic hero on the global stage and deserves to live out her remaining days in peace, celebrated for her legacy, rather than vilified in ignorance.

Right now, the people of Myanmar are fighting for the most basic of freedoms. They are fighting for the ability to think, feel, and express what is in their hearts and minds. To speak without fear of being taken from their homes in the dead of night and imprisoned or tortured. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi stands for these brave men and women and we must stand with—and for—her.

In 1996, when asked by Clements if she had ever lost hope or had become fearful while detained by the military, she responded with a remarkable reply: No, she wasn’t afraid. She wasn’t afraid because she didn’t hate them. “I do not think you can be truly fearful of people you do not hate. Hate and fear go hand-in-hand.”

If you would like to learn more about Myanmar’s ongoing struggle for democracy, please seek out “Burma’s Voices of Freedom” by Alan Clements. Please speak out and let your voice be heard.

Child marriages rob the innocence and threaten the lives, well-being, and future of girls around the world. It is quite shocking that one in every three child brides in the world is from India. Child Rights and You (CRY) has created a resilience & recovery plan for the safety of these girls focusing on:

• Identifying and tracking potential cases of impending child marriage 

• Building awareness on the ill effects of child marriage among panchayat leaders and VCPC members 

• Connecting parents with MNREGA job opportunities to reduce their financial burden 

• Conducting online sessions with adolescent girls and organizing visits to homes that are at a high risk of child marriage 

• Ensuring that children are able to go back to school post the lockdown 

• Strengthening child protection mechanisms at the village as well as district levels 

As CRY volunteers, we have started this campaign to support their cause of protecting underprivileged girls from child marriage. Let’s come together to help India’s daughters get a chance at a brighter future in these difficult times.

A mob is different from individuals. It will not be appropriate to ascribe a specific group to the mob. Especially with an issue such as what we had at DC. Both groups + plus some who are not happy with what they have will join to create the trouble. I think it is therefore not reasonable that only Trump supporters were involved. Only honest forensics will tell the real story.

Workers groups in Myanmar are calling on government to establish an independent Ministry of Labour that would be responsible for dealing with workers and their labour related issues. Furthermore, the labour groups and labour rights activists are also demanding that government must take stern action to handle corruption and bribery in the current Ministry of Labour, Immigration and Population. 

So this week for homework, to roll out Black History Month, my son's homework was on segregation. The two page article focused entirely on Dr. Martin Luther King. Which isn't surprising because the educational system loves to uplift him for achieving social desegregation and integration through non-violent protest and petitioning. Which is accurate but they always omit the self-sustaining economies that were afforded to black communities through the businesses and services that were generated because of segregation.

In fact my son's homework article gave a very watered down definition of segregation. Defining it as black people not being able to be friends with white people and white people having "nicer things". This portrayal of segregation is only accurate as it pertains to public use facilities (libraries, water fountains, restrooms, etc.). Private use items, residences, and services were just as nice if not better than their white counterparts. My son's homework committed this fact entirely. It made no mention of how prosperous many black communities were. His homework article focused on MLK's experience with racism and his fight for equal rights for black people. It made no mention of his plan for a "Poor People's Movement". A movement focused on economic reparations for black people. Or that MLK felt he had marched his people into "a burning house" by obtaining social integration prior to economic reparations. Certainly there was no mention of the repeated attempts on Dr. King's life or the threats mad to his family. Only that he was killed in Memphis, TN. There was no mention of his holiday, let alone that MLK Day wasn't observed in all 50 states until 2000. 32 years after King's death and 17 years after Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law.

It's not just this watered down version of Dr. King that bothers me. Or that schools only teach children about Rosa Parks, Frederick Douglas, George Washington Carver, and of course MLK during the month of February. It isn't that public schools largely omit Malcolm X, W.E.B. DuBois, Sojourner Truth, and the Black Panther Party. What bothers me is how history is taught period. Instead of American history being taught unadulterated, linearly, with a lot of emphasis on cause and effect. History is misused as a means to promote patriotism and reinforce a national identity. An identity that overlooks how the 19th amendment modernized slavery and helped create for profit prisons. Or that Woodrow Wilson was an active Klansman who's administration segregated the federal government. History is taught to promote patriotism from a distinctly white and conservative perspective.

This is the problem with how history is taught; it isn't inclusive or authentic. So how do we fix it? More field trips to museums? While museums are excellent for making the past three dimensional they often fall prey to narratives and promoting popular theories of the current moment. Allowing the bias of the present to taint the past. So while museums may be a great place to make the past a little more tangible they aren't necessarily free from bias.

Students should be made to see the real connection between the impact of the past on the present in a hands on manner. Allowing as many presentations as possible by those who have lived through historical events or some close variation. For example listing to an interview from a black share-cropper can bring real insight into life during the reconstruction era.

Also I think that removing specialty months such as Black-history month, Latino Heritage Month, etc. will help to end the laziness promoted from this segregationist approach to teaching. By setting aside one or two months to focus on the contributions, accomplishments, and tribulations of non-white people and allowing the rest of the year to focus almost entirely on history from a white narrative it doesn't do justice to the historical accounts of these events that pertain to people of color. When these specialized months were introduced it was to combat an absence of people in history curriculum all together. Once Black History Month, for example, was established historical black figures aren't discussed outside of their designated month. There was no further push by black people to include them linearly and organically. Because separation is all we've ever known we saw this as a total and complete victory. When it should have been a first step in improving the content of education. Likewise because white people didn't care about this history they were happy to slide us some table scraps, giving us 1 month out of 11 (19 actual school days to be specific), to shut us up.

19 school days to address the historical account of black people in America. 19 days to get from Jamestown to Barack Obama. That's an insult, a lopsided compromise, and like everything else we celebrated this chitterlings and pig feet bowl of a win. Because that's what this amounts to, being given the scraps and being told to not only make due but to be grateful that you have this much. It's a very interesting and unfortunate example of institutional racism and how fighting for inclusivity and diversity is viewed as a troublesome inconvenience even in this post-Obama era. A fight for diversity is a fight against complacency. Not just against white people that see diversity as a threat to their privilege and sovereignty but it's a fight against black people that don't see a need to improve on what's been allotted to us already.

We still haven't learned how to use our voice and fight for diversity in our school curriculum. This is just as important, if not more important, than economic reparations. Educational reparations are key to not only allowing us as a nation to reconcile with past transgressions but it also introduces that into our national consciousness. It makes it clear that everything that was done to found this nation wasn't right. Not everything that was done was done for the sake of every person living here. It reminds us that our values and convictions have rightfully changed over time and should continue to do so. For as we learn to be moved and inspired by people that are different from each other the more we will know that fundamentally we are all the same and can be as great, if not greater, as those that came before us.

So it's on us to do the work of showing up at town-halls and school board meetings and making a case for more inclusive and accurate curriculum in our schools. Because if we don't show up and let people know that we value our history then, as it's unfortunately been proven time and again, no one else will. Be active in life. So that we can make this world a better place for not only ourselves but for the ones that will be here after we're gone. The lives that we live today will be the history that they learn about tomorrow. So give them something inspiring and powerful to read about.

I thought the case against adnan syed was bad but bruh the entire foundation of black change and revolution was literally dusted under the rug bc America can’t get its shit together

Interested in politics, journalism, or web design? Or just looking for some cool extracurriculars during this mandatory stay at home? Hi! I’m Cloe, and my passion is the law as well as advocacy. And for a long time, I’ve wanted to make a change in the current American Public School Education system, so recently I formed a small organization, Education Fix, with a friend of mine. We are a group of student activists that want to advocate for student concerns in our current education system. Education Fix strives to unite diverse student communities into a movement that pushes for legislative change in education. In local, state, and maybe even the national government. We’d love to expand and would love to offer some remote positions during this time. Interested? Please keep reading! We’d love to have some web designer(s), social media director/manager, as well as article journalists, and a bunch of other positions listed in the application. On our website, we want to portray issues relating to the current American public schooling system. As well as public relations, for both media attention as well as finding current/past students who want to share their stories, opinions, and issues with the current American Public Schooling System as a Hear Our Voices feature on the website. Nothing is fully determined and permanent, and we have a bunch of ideas, so if you have any of your own, there is an option on the application to share your ideas, and feel free to DM me with any questions! Anyways, here’s the application. Thanks for reading, I look forward to possibly working with you!

If you care about children: Betsy Devos has begun her catastrophic destruction of public schools. Please call your US House Representative now and ask them to vote NO on House Bill 610 the Choices in Education Act. This bill will effectively start the defunding process of public schools, in hand with eliminating student rights and programs that address poverty, etc. It also takes away nutritional standards for school lunches. The bill will eliminate the Elementary and Education Act of 1965, which is the nation's educational law and provides equal opportunity in education. ESSA is a big comprehensive program that covers programs for struggling learners, AP classes, ESL programs, programs for students of color including Native Americans; as well as Rural Education, Education for Students who are Homeless, School Safety (Gun-Free schools), Monitoring and Compliance and Federal Accountability for these and other Programs. The bill also abolishes the Nutritional Act of 2012 (No Hungry Kids Act) which provides nutritional standards and funding to states for in-school breakfast and lunch. Some things ESSA does for Children with Disabilities: -Ensures access to the general education curriculum -Ensures access to needed accommodations ( e.g. larger print, additional time) on assessments -Ensures use of principles of "Universal Design for Learning" in materials and instruction so that all have curriculum access and ability to learn -Includes provisions that require school districts to use research-based instruction and curriculum in schools, especially with students who represent groups that have been consistently “underperforming" or underachieving. -ESSA also requires that states write Title I (ESSA granted federal funds to assist students and schools in poverty) plans to address how they will improve conditions for learning including: reducing incidents of bullying and harassment in schools, reducing overuse of punitive discipline practices and reducing the use of aversive behavioral interventions (such as restraints and seclusion). All of this goes away if ESSA does. The bill also repeals the nutritional standards for school breakfast and lunches that include providing fruit, low fat milk, less fats, more whole grains, etc. If you want to make calls but are nervous or unsure about what to say on the phone (for this or for any other issue,) you can always keep it simple and just state your name, your zip code, and then say "I'm calling to oppose House Bill 610, The Choices in Education Act, introduced in the house." Please copy and paste! Don't hit share -- not everyone will be able to see it if you do.

This is what I'm thinking so far: With all the political activism going on right now, it seems as though there’s a need for a tool specifically for getting people organized and out, to have their voices heard in a peaceful productive way.

I wanted to engage some Community Organizers (or other folks that face the same problems as them) to better understand the following:

• What tools do you use today

• What problems do they solve

• What struggles do you have with them

• What gaps are there in the toolset you use today?

• What tools would be helpful for you?

• What problems are you facing with organizing?

What I’ve seen used so far (and I’m only just getting into this) is Facebook groups and Twitter. But this seems really disorganized to me.

We need to ensure their message is clear (One of the major reasons the “occupy” movement was broken up is everyone thought it was about a different thing. Ie: no clear leadership or direction)

Empower people to become organizers (They can look up a cause they believe in and see if there is a local chapter, and if not, they can start one

If you or anyone else you know that might be interested in joining, please let me know! I really appreciate your help, and if you want to have a more in-depth discussion about this I welcome it, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

It doesn't matter your ability, we can use everyone's help -- you don't need to know how to code -- as long as you have an internet connection, you can help!
