Donald Trump Isn't the Worst
Covid President. Just Ask Brazilians.
Video NYT Opinion
The New York Times 15 July 2020
Who’s the world’s worst leader
at handling the pandemic? Easy.
Donald Trump. Right?
Well, as terrible as Mr. Trump
is,
a Brazilian YouTube star,
Felipe Neto,
argues it’s actually his
president, Jair Bolsonaro.
Presidents Trump and Bolsonaro
have long admired each other’s
caustic styles of governance.
So it shouldn’t come as a
surprise
that the United States and
Brazil
are the only two countries in
the world
with over a million confirmed
cases of Covid-19.
It’s a tight race, and to be
sure,
neither government should be praised,
but the reckless denial by
Brazilian leadership is appalling.
Mr. Neto is not normally one to
comment on politics.
He usually sticks
to entertaining his 38 million
followers on YouTube
with his comedic takes on pop
culture.
But as the death toll mounts,
he’s become more outspoken.
And his message isn’t aimed
only at Brazilians — it’s also for Americans.

Are Kenya's police getting away with murder?
Video
The Guardian 6 August 2019
Promising student Carliton Maina
was shot by the police in
Nairobi.
His mother believes he was murdered.
As part of The Guardian's special focus on Kibera,
we met residents of Africa's largest slum
to explore their deep distrust of the police
and find out what Maina's,
and other recent deaths,
can tell us about the dramatic rise
in extrajudicial killings across Kenya.

Rwanda: 25 ans
après le génocide Video Mediapart
13 June 2019
Il y a un
quart de siècle, une logique
génocidaire
s'enclenchait contre les Tutsis du Rwanda.
Dans cette
séquence historique,
le rôle de la
France
fait toujours l'objet de controverses.
On en parle
avec Fabrice Arfi
(journaliste à Mediapart),
Justine
Brabant
(journaliste)
et Florent
Piton
(historien,

The veiled rapper breaking taboos for women in Senegal
Video The Guardian 31 December 2019
Mina La Voilée
is a female rapper from Parcelles, Dakar,
who is breaking taboos by rapping about women's rights.
As a woman who chooses to wear a veil,
she explains how criticism from industry professionals
who told her "the veil and hip hop don't flow together"
drove her to succeed,
and inspired her to tackle
other controversial societal issues in her lyrics
such as child marriage, rape and infanticide.
She performs both as a solo artist
and as part of an all-female rap movement,
Genji Hip Hop,
who use their music to fight
cultural stereotypes and gender violence

American Tariffs,
Bangladeshi Deaths
December 11, 2012
The New York Times
By SANCHITA B. SAXENA
Berkeley, Calif.
THE fire that killed 112 workers at a garment factory in the suburbs of
Bangladesh’s capital last month was a stark reminder of the human costs of
producing and consuming cheap clothes.
While American officials have condemned poor safety conditions at the factory
and have urged the Bangladeshi government to raise wages and improve working
conditions, the United States can do much more: It should bring down high
tariffs on imports from Bangladesh and other Asian countries, which put pressure
on contractors there to scrimp on labor standards in order to stay competitive.
The United States imported more than $4 billion worth of apparel and textiles
from Bangladesh last year. So it has an interest in giving the country’s garment
industry some financial room with which to improve conditions for the three
million employees, most of them female, who work in the industry.
Monitoring systems have, in many cases, achieved progress at the higher levels
of the industry: the contractors that deal directly with American retailers. But
oversight is lax, and conditions particularly dire, in factories run by
subcontractors, like the Tazreen Fashions factory, the site of the deadly blaze
on Nov. 24.
A bill introduced in Congress in 2009 by Representative Jim McDermott, Democrat
of Washington, could have improved the situation by including Bangladesh,
Cambodia, Laos, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka on the list of developing
countries, like Mexico, that receive duty-free access to the American market as
a result of free-trade agreements. But the bill never even made it to committee,
and Bangladesh still faces a cost squeeze that is ultimately felt most acutely
on those lowest on the production chain, especially the lowest-paying
subcontractors, among whom corruption is endemic. It takes its greatest toll on
workers.
The distortions created by the current trade policy are striking. In the United
States federal fiscal year that ended in September 2011, Bangladesh exported
$5.10 billion in goods to the United States, of which less than 10 percent were
eligible for exemption from import duties. On the rest, Bangladesh had to pay at
least 15.3 percent in tariffs. The tariffs were equivalent to imposing a $4.61
tax on every person in Bangladesh, a country with a per-capita annual income of
$770.
This year, according to news accounts, Bangladesh will have paid more than $600
million annually in American tariffs, even as the United States Agency for
International Development said it was committed to $200 million in development
aid to Bangladesh. Of course, no free trade legislation is controversy-free. One
argument against reducing restrictions on Bangladeshi imports is that it might
hurt even poorer countries, in sub-Saharan Africa, that enjoy duty-free access
under a 2000 law, the African Growth and Opportunity Act. But studies have shown
that extending duty-free access to South Asian goods would have negligible
costs, yield huge benefits for Bangladesh’s economy and have minimal negative
impact on African exports.
Bangladesh’s government and industries have a moral duty to prevent catastrophes
like the November fire from ever occurring again. They need to insist that
factory operators meet safety standards, that inspections are conducted honestly
and that recommendations are enforced.
But leveling the playing field of international trade could advance all of these
goals. International brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Gap, H&M, Target and Walmart
demand low prices and fast turnaround. In that context, high tariffs work
against the goals of fair-labor standards and factory safety.
In the fire’s aftermath, it’s tempting to focus only on local corruption and lax
labor standards. But there have been positive changes in recent years; labor
groups, businesses, nongovernmental organizations and even some international
buyers have formed coalitions to improve safety at many factories. In a survey I
conducted of garment workers at established factories, 62 percent said labor
conditions had improved.
But for improvements in workers’ well-being to have lasting effect, tariffs on
exports to the United States, the world’s largest consumer market, must be
eased.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations
of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have
one very basic question
that you can't easily find
an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
