Чындыктан көз ачышат

Жараткан айрымдарды өзгөчө көз-караш, өзгөчө сезим-туюмдар менен байытып коет экен. Мен Умида Ахмедова менен акыркы жылдары бир канча ирет көрүштүм. Чыгармачыл адам менен эмне жөнүндө сүйлөшмөк элек? Умиданын ар бир сөзүндө, ар бир баасында өзгөчөлүүлүк байкалып турат. Анын сүрөттөрү, фильми, видео-арт үчүн жасаган иштери, - баары биздин көздөр көрө берип, такыр чарчап, мокоп бүткөн жөнөкөй эле чындыкты көрсөтөт. Мына ошол чындыкты баары эле көрүүгө даяр эмес окшойт… Ал азыр өз өлкөсүндө айыпталып жаткан кези. Мен аны менен бүгүн сүйлөштүм.

Skinheads attacked foreigners in Moscow

Police have confirmed the fact of mass fight on Friday night (June 22) in three Moscow locations. Around 50 people from the right-wing extremists had attacked against people from Central Asia and Caucasus (there were some people from Kyrgyzstan as well). One ethnic Armenian man was hospitalized with stab wounds. Police arrested more than 40 people. They coordinated attacks against foreigners. According to agency reports, they were from the Movement Against Illegal Immigration, which is well-known with its ultra-nationalistic activities and whose name connected with recent ethnic clashes in Stavropol. It’s difficult to find differences between this organization and wild skinheads… Today, Moscow police called up all political parties and movements to stop to encourage youth fighting against foreigners. Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov pledged on Saturday that the city authorities "will not allow nationalist and chauvinist manifestations" in the capital and will "clamp down on al...

Working kids: Does someone care?

According to the International Labour Organization, more than 200 million children in the world today are involved in child labour, doing work that is damaging to his or her mental, physical and emotional development. Children work because their survival and that of their families depend on it. Child labour persists even where it has been declared illegal, and is frequently surrounded by a wall of silence, indifference, and apathy. But that wall is beginning to crumble.
