March 2022 Cultural News

 


3/1/22: "Asian woman attacked last year in New York by man with rock has died, family says"- This is a very sad story that since covid hit we saw a massive explosion in hate crimes against Asians. The attacker was not white or white presenting which shows that hate crimes can be done by anyone and is not just committed by whites. Hate crimes happen between perceived different groups and increase depending on world events and fear between different groups rise. Many of the Asians attacked during covid were not even Chinese, but were targeted because they appeared "Asian." If you see something I'm calling for everyone to step in and not just watch, but try to help people when you can. Be the change you want to see in the world. https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/28/us/guiying-ma-death-new-york-asian-hate-crime/index.html?fbclid=IwAR0KpUBL8KNxWfCsPgyqhqOrsYHk0HpEA3lqw6mKJulgpAz51hZZKkOsqfg

3/21/22: "Denver Donates 33 Bison To Rebuild Native American Herds"- About time. At the same time I'm wondering if these bison have been genetically checked to verify that they are full bison. I say this because a lot of bison are not pure bison any more and have other cow strands mixed in. Many times breeders actually have to go to Native Americans to get the pure strands of bison from their populations. https://denver.cbslocal.com/2022/03/21/denver-bison-native-american/?fbclid=IwAR1U70xxPYVT8ond1ZtNSHYwMmINo6I7NQ1oQ8dkhQ6ftnf_SAbZUFxq0Vg

3/23/22: "Taliban Cancels Girls' Higher Education Despite Pledges"- No one really expected the Taliban to keep a promise. All they can do is lie and hurt people. This is just another human rights issue that the U.S. will turn a blind eye on. If we're not going to help Ukraine, then we might as well go back to the Middle East and finish the job we started. Right now we're just sitting back as horrible people abuse others. Our ideas of freedom really don't stand up for much when put against real world events. - https://www.huffpost.com/entry/afghanistan-girls-education-cancelled_n_623b06a9e4b019fd813560e4?fbclid=IwAR1_sPJul9TXgW12gxkmEL6MIJ8WXZioEV3-u2j-Z1n_W3jfFedXVCNQTGQ
