Dozens of Nigerian women from four local hostels are currently living in fear of deportation - despite their harrowing accounts of abuse. They have called a 1pm protest on Thursday 14th July at Dáil Éireann to highlight their situation. Below, two of the women explain a little of their stories and the threats they face if returned by Justice Minister McDowell’s fast-tracking policy. Residents Against Racism is working closely with the women and lending its full support to the protest. Spokesperson Rosanna Flynn commented: “The oppression of Nigerian women is no ‘cock and bull story’. It’s time McDowell started listening and stopped sending women and children back to persecution.” read full story / add a comment

dublin / racism & migration related issues / event notice Monday July 11, 2005 13:50 by Dave
Demonstrate 1pm, Thursday 14th July, Dáil Éireann, Kildare Street, Dublin A group of Nigerian women who have fled horrific experiences including sexual slavery, forced genital mutilation and male violence have called a demonstration aimed at halting the state’s efforts to ‘fast-track’ them back to abuse. This controversial policy is based on the myth that Nigeria is a safe country. For women and girls in particular it is anything but. One of the women in fear of deportation spoke of her concerns for her daughter: “I fled from Nigeria because my wicked in-laws demanded that I bring my only remaining daughter for the same circumcision that killed her sister. We cannot be safe if we are forced back.” Backed by Residents Against Racism, the women are calling for support for a rally outside the Irish parliament on Kildare Street at 1pm on Thursday 14th July. read full story / add a comment

We all live under it. We all talk about it (whether reverentially or scornfully), but do any of us really know what it is? And how come, no one ever takes the time to explain and define precisely what this thing is? Why do most of us never hear a clearer and more precise definition of what this thing CAPITALISM is, which is afterall supposedly so great? read full story / add a comment

60 years ago the german pacifist and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer was murdered by the Nazis. "Translated in nearly all the languages of the world, Bonhoeffer's texts encourage liberating the Bible from the godless bonds of fundamentalist interpretations and protesting increasingly perfect weapons and destructive relations with the goods of the earth." read full story / add a comment

The emergency has reached Birmingham, the second most populous conurbation of england, the most complex motorised transport interchange of the island of britain. On the 9th of July 2005, the city centre of birmingham was evacuated and pub, club and restaurant owners to be responsible for their staff to search premises and all entrants / clients / customers / regulars / diners / have a good timers / civilians / people with jobs related to the postal service or major trade unions entering. Birmingham and surrounding urban areas have a population of many millions and routinely sees many languages spoken both on the street and on the telephone. Visitors think its ugly. The natives and newly arrived "brummies" (as migrants are termed) are particularly proud of the place and think it ought be seen as second only to manchester and newcastle for a good right down chap and gal party place. read full story / add a comment
