I live in real poverty,

and it's not what you think – Kathleen Kerridge

Video    The Guardian    Comment is Free    24 February 2016

 

Kathleen Kerridge’s family food budget

is £40 per week – to feed five people.

 

She says there is a big gap

between the public perception of poverty

and what it means for people like her.

 

We should stop talking about poverty, she argues,

until we know what being poor in this country

really means

Guantánamo Bay: The Hunger Strikes

Video        animation        The Guardian        14 October 2013

 

In March 2012,

reports of a hunger strike at Guantánamo Bay,

the US detention camp in Cuba, began to surface.

 

Details were sketchy and were contradicted

by statements from the US military.

 

Now, using testimony from five detainees,

this animated film reveals the daily brutality

of life inside Guantánamo.

 

Today there are 17 prisoners still on hunger strike,

16 of whom are being force-fed.

 

Two are in hospital.

 

Warning:

contains scenes some viewers might find disturbing!

 

In this Sunday's Observer

read the extraordinary story of the making of Guantánamo Bay:

The Hunger Strikes, plus an interview with David Morrissey

about why he got involved

As Ramadan begins,

more than 100 hunger-strikers in Guantánamo Bay

continue their protest.

 

More than 40 of them are being force-fed.

 

A leaked document sets out the military instructions,

or standard operating procedure, for force-feeding detainees.

 

In this four-minute film

made by Human Rights organisation Reprieve

and Bafta award-winning director Asif Kapadia,

US actor and rapper Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def),

experiences the procedure.

Collateral Murder    WikiLeaks    2010    Warning: graphic

 

 

 

 

Collateral Murder

Video    5th April 2010    10:44 EST

 

WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video

depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people

in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad

-- including two Reuters news staff.

 

Reuters has been trying to obtain the video

through the Freedom of Information Act,

without success since the time of the attack.

 

The video,

shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site,

clearly shows the unprovoked slaying

of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers.

 

Two young children involved in the rescue

were also seriously wounded.
