World Refugee Day: Global forced displacement tops 50 million for first time in post-World War II era : 20 June 2014
thoughts from beyond the spaces
prenez 2 étoiles, posez-les dans un même plat, remuez le moins possible, passez en mode “plein écran” et laisser mijoter…
tomar 2 estrelas, colocá-los no mesmo prato, mexa o menos possível, passar para o modo “tela cheia” e deixe ferver …
take 2 stars, place them in the same dish, mix as little as possible, switch to “full screen” mode and simmer …

They came
They are all there
Soon as they heard the cry
She will die , la mama
They came
They are all there
Even those of southern Italy
There’s even Giorgio , the cursed son
With presents hands full
All children play quietly
Around the bed on the floor
But their games do not matter
It’s a bit past their gifts
A la mamma
It warms kisses
He was back pillows
She will die , la mama
Holy Mary , full of grace
Whose statue is on the place
Of course you stretch yours arms
Her singing Ave Maria
Ave Maria
There’s so much love, and memories
Around you, you la mama
There’s so many tears and smiles
Through you, you mama
And all the men were so hot
On the paths of bright sunshine
She will die , la mama
They drink fresh new wine
Good wine from good trellis
While piled pell-mell
On the benches , scarves and hats
It’s funny you do not feel sad
Near the big bed affection
There’s even a guitarist uncle
Who plays carefully
A la mamma
And women remembering
Sad songs vigils
She will die , mama
Softly , eyes closed
As a child we rocks
After a good day
For him falling asleep smiling
Ave Maria
There’s so much love , and memories
Around you, you la mama
There’s so many tears and smiles
Through you, you mama
That never , never, never
You’ll leave us …

Sister Rosetta Tharpe : Didn’t It Rain?
Les bandes paramilitaires sévissant dans la ville portuaire de Buenaventura, majoritairement afro-colombienne, sont accusées d’être responsables de l’enlèvement, meurtre, mutilation, disparition de plusieurs centaines de ses habitants. Des milliers de personnes fuient leur maison chaque année, et la municipalité de Buenaventura est devenue la zone championne des déplacements forcés aujourd’hui en Colombie.
http://www.hrw.org/node/123916Gangues paramilitares que operam na cidade portuária de Buenaventura, na sua maioria afro-colombiana, são acusados de serem responsáveis pelo sequestro, assassinato, mutilação o desaparecimento de centenas de seus habitantes. Milhares de pessoas estão fugindo de suas casas todos os anos, e o município de Buenaventura tornou-se hoje a área “campeão” do deslocamento forçado na Colômbia.

Paramilitary successor groups have abducted and disappeared scores, and possibly hundreds, of residents of the largely Afro-Colombian port of Buenaventura. Thousands of residents have been fleeing their homes in the city each year, making Buenaventura the municipality with the highest level of ongoing forced displacement in Colombia today.
Pour combien de temps encore?

Femmes réfugiées ayant subi des mutilations génitales féminines (MGF ) et qui mettent tout en oeuvre pour mettre fin à ces pratiques . Ces femmes expliquent leurs expériences de la MGF , de l’asile et de leur intégration dans l’Union européenne,
Les Mutilations Génitales Féminines sont internationalement reconnues comme une violation des droits fondamentaux des filles et des femmes . Ces pratiques violent également le droit à la santé et à l’intégrité physique d’une personne, le droit de ne pas être soumis à la torture et à d’autres droits encore.
Les MGF sont nuisibles, non pas culturelles; elles ont des conséquences désastreuses sur toute la vie d’une femme et sont un motif reconnu de demande d’asile.
La vidéo complète la publication HCR Trop de douleur : les mutilations génitales féminines et l’asile dans l’Union européenne – Un aperçu statistique, et mis à jour en Mars 2014.
Le HCR , l’agence des réfugiés des Nations Unies , travaille à protéger et aider les personnes fuyant la guerre et la persécution .

Meet refugee women who have undergone Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and are working to end this practice. These women explain their experiences of FGM, flight, asylum and integration in the European Union.
FGM is recognized internationally as a violation of the human rights of girls and women. The practice also violates a person’s rights to health and physical integrity; the right to be free from torture and other rights.
FGM is harmful not cultural; it has life-long consequences and can be a ground for asylum.
The video complements the UNHCR publication Too Much Pain: Female Genital Mutilation & Asylum in the European Union – A Statistical Overview, and updated in March 2014
UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, works to protect and assist those fleeing war and persecution. Since 1950, we have helped tens of millions of people find safety and rebuild their lives. With your support, we can restore hope for many more.

Sochi-Sebastopol
(Moscou, le 4 Février, 2014) – Les autorités russes doivent prendre en compte la détérioration de la situation et les abus généralisés, concertés contre les gays et militants bisexuels, trans-genres et lesbiennes (LGBT). L’incapacité d’agir des autorités et certains commentaires homophobes des fonctionnaires encouragent les criminels et exposent les personnes LGBT à subir encore plus de harcèlement et de violence au quotidien.

A incapacidade de agir das autoridades e alguns comentários homofóbicos dos funcionários encorajam os criminosos e expõem as pessoas LGBT a sofrer ainda mais assédio e violência, diariamente.

Sotchi, au bord de la mer Noire, est l’une des villes balnéaires les plus populaires de Russie. En juillet 2007, la municipalité est désignée par le Comité international olympique (CIO) pour organiser les Jeux d’hiver de 2014. Le site se trouve en effet dans une région au climat subtropical, où il ne neige que rarement. Les villages montagneux de l’arrière-pays ne sont pas réputés pour leur domaine skiable. Comment un dossier aussi médiocre a-t-il pu remporter les suffrages du CIO ?…
Sochi, na fronteira com o Mar Negro, é uma das cidades litorâneas mais populares da Rússia. Em julho de 2007, o município é designado pelo Comitê Olímpico Internacional (COI) para sediar os Jogos de Inverno de 2014. O site fica numa região subtropical, onde neva raramente. Aldeias de montanha do interior não são conhecidas por sua área de esqui. Como um dossier tão pobre pode ter conquistado os votos dos IOC Sochi? …
Bordering the Black Sea, is one of the most popular seaside towns of Russia. In July 2007, the municipality is designated by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to host the 2014 Winter Games. However, many voices were raised to criticize this choice at least surprising. The site is indeed in a subtropical region, where it snows rarely. Mountain villages of the hinterland are not known for their ski area. How such a poor record has been winning the votes of IOC?…
