Darfur, Sudan: The Calamity a World Forgot

Robert DiBlasio0
The first time I heard of this vast, yet remote region tucked into the southwest corner of the African country of Sudan was in 2003.

Being a 19 year old aspiring writer with little education, guidance or even an idea of what I wanted to write about, I was in the midst of some heavy soul searching. The

Roleigh Martin0
We came across Roleigh Martin a few days ago, on X, with this long and interesting read on an old voting system the 'Voto Segreto' - the 'Secret Vote', that apparently originated in Italy and was used with some success for 70 odd years between 1848 and 1922.

The U.S. Mexico Border: A Tainted History of Prejudice, Exploitation and Broken Policies

"Immigration is the sincerest form of flattery." (Jack Paar) I felt it necessary to begin with a poignant quote in this attempt to make sense of the century long travesty that has been America's immigration policy . Since it's inception the United States has prided it's self on welcoming the world's downtrodden, I don't feel the need to quote the Statue of Liberty's famous statement of acceptance.
