This poem was born from that despair—a cry for a world that turns away as people starve, thirst, and perish. Please do not turn your backs on us—we still need your support. Keep pressuring your leaders to push the deal forward. If you don’t, believe me, you will be next one day.

Now, with the start of this third Ramadan, I fear the thirds will follow: a third Eid, a third birthday, and—since the current truce is not holding its end of the deal—we might face a return to war, making it a third ordeal for us.

This is how Andrew Cuomo thinks we should respond to authoritarianism.

While Mike Johnson claims he doesn’t have a strategy, we know that’s a lie. His strategy: give tax breaks to billionaires and protect the predators since he won’t release the Epstein files. All while Americans suffer.

For the Wauja, the feathers of birds are their ‘clothing.’ After being killed, the birds are ‘undressed’ (plucked). Their plumes, having become ‘leftovers,’ will go to make up one or more adornments, mixing feathers from different birds, in compliance with the patterns of visual composition. In the case of human beings, the concept of feather adornments is conceptually similar to clothing. Featherwork is a vital element in many rituals.

The Waura tribe has characteristic headdresses, often made of feathers of parrots or other colourful birds such as macaws. In this particular case, they make use of the colours yellow and orange in a skillful way that only true artists could achieve.

Waura artisans collect feathers from vibrant Amazonian birds such as macaws, toucans, parrots, and hummingbirds. These are meticulously cleaned, dyed with natural pigments (e.g., from genipap fruit for black or urucu seeds for red), and woven or attached using cotton threads or plant fibers.

Feathers are integral to Waura body adornment, serving not just as decorative elements but as embodiments of aesthetic ideals, social status, and ritual efficacy. Adornment is a daily and ceremonial practice for the Waura, transforming the body into a canvas of joy, identity, and cosmic connection.

The Waura, also known as the Wauja, are an indigenous Arawak-speaking people residing in the Upper Xingu region of the Amazon rainforest in Mato Grosso, Brazil. Feathers are integral to the Waura body adornment. Elaborate feather crowns or headbands are worn by men during dances and rituals.

The Indian Act in Canada, enacted in 1876, imposed severe restrictions on Indigenous cultural practices, including banning powwows, the Sun Dance, and other ceremonies deemed "undesirable" by the government. These prohibitions, enforced until amendments in 1951, were part of a broader assimilative agenda, alongside policies like residential schools. Despite this, Indigenous communities preserved their traditions through clandestine gatherings, passing down songs, dances, and ceremonies in secret. Modern powwows, vibrant celebrations of culture, spirituality, and community, stand as a testament to Indigenous resilience and resistance against cultural erasure. They blend traditional elements—like drumming, regalia, and dances such as the Fancy Dance or Jingle Dress—with contemporary expressions, showcasing both survival and adaptation.

In Canada, the Indian Act prohibited powwows and other cultural expressions between 1876 and 1951. Indigenous communities kept their traditions alive in secret, and modern powwows are a powerful symbol of their survival and resistance.

Project 2025 architects want transgender people and allies designated as terrorists The Charlie Kirk killing fueled the anti-LGBTQ+ think tank's latest attack on gender minorities.

They want to label us terrorists for even describing what they're doing to us. It's the ultimate exercise in gaslighting and victim blaming.
