In the desert, the smugglers lace their water with petrol so the smuggled won’t gulp it down and cost more. Sometimes the trucks they’re packed into stall crossing the Sahara; they have to jump out to push, and some are left behind when the trucks drive off again. In transit camps in Libya before the perilous venture across the Blue Desert, they play football, fight, and pool their scanty resources so an even poorer friend can pay his way. One man says his tiny wooden boat was flanked by dolphins as they made the journey, three on each side, like guardian angels, and this was what gave him hope.

RIOTS IN ENGLAND/UPRISING OF THE UNHEARD
by Astrid Essed Wednesday, Sep. 07, 2011 at 6:08 PM
In contrary with the mainstream media and the British politicians, the 2011 riots in England are no ”mindless violence”, but a clear protest against the years of social unjustice and racist police violence
RIOTS IN ENGLAND/UPRISING OF THE UNHEARD
RIOTS ARE THE VOICES OF THE UNHEARD
Martin Luther King
http://quotationsbook.com/quote/34458/
”Whilst many seek to pin the blame on the inevitable result of decades of oppression in under-privileged communities, the causes of the riots are swept under the rugs looted from Carpet Right. Inequality is at the heart of this. As long as the police see themselves as above the law, young people will take it into their own hands.”

Dear Editor and readers,
SUMMARY:
In contrary with the British politicians and mainstream media, the riots in England are no ”mindless violence” and ”criminal acts”, but the direct consequence of government cuts, which are especially damaging to poor neighbourhoods. decennialong social deprivation and often unpunished police violence.
The methods [burning and looting] are wrong, the deadly victims unacceptable, but the fury about the yearlong police violence and the social injustice is legitimate
This is the resistance of the unheard and humiliated, as Martin Luther King has stated [1]
