Even Though I'm Broke, I Will Donate Money To Haiti!!

For those folks who are in a financial bind like me,let me state that I hope our situation gets better.But right now,it's not about how bad I'm doing.The people of Haiti are in a far worse position than me.So, I will not make the sorry excuse that some insensitive,self-centered people have been making.

Even though I am broke & unemployed,I will send at least $10 to Haiti.If this tragedy doesn't bring out my charitable spirit,then,what will? I mean,did you see the massive devastation that has been reaped upon Haiti? The Haitians will need help in recovering from this earthquake for a long time.

Only the heartless could remain untouched by the scenes of destruction & human despair that are coming out of the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.

Please do what you can to lend Haiti a helping hand.

African Migrants Are Rioting Because Of Racism In Southern Italy!

Racism is not just an American issue.It is an international one as well.Witness the race riots that have broken out in Southern Italy.After an assault on African farm workers by an Italian gang of youths,migrants have accused Italians of harboring racist feelings towards them. Human rights groups say that these migrant workers,who work as day laborers,are also being exploited by organised crime groups.

It would appear that you are judged by the color of your skin & not your mettle all over the globe! What a pity that is!

Here's more from AlJazeera.Net:

"Riots involving hundreds of immigrants have broken out in southern Italy, in protest against an attack on African farm workers by a gang of local youths, police said.

Dozens of immigrants, mostly from African nations, smashed car windows and set cars and rubbish bins of fire in the town of Rosarno in the Calabria region on Thursday night.

The rioters, shouting "we are not animals" and holding signs accusing Italians of racism, clashed with riot police, leading to seven arrests.

The Italian interior ministry said 14 people, including officers, protesters and residents, were injured in the riots.

The violence started after two immigrants were wounded when a number of white youths fired air rifles at them as they returned home from work.

'Strongly provoked'

Immigrants work in the area as day labourers picking fruit and vegetables, with some 1,500 living in squalid conditions in abandoned factories with no running water or electricity

Human rights activists say they are exploited by organised crime groups.

Agazio Loiero, governor of the Calabria region, told Sky TV that the violence was "unacceptable" but the migrants have been "strongly provoked".

Calabria is also the base of the international crime syndicate called 'ndrangheta.

The combination of ethnic strife and organised crime activity has sparked violence before among immigrant communities in southern Italy."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the rest here.
