#BDCAM25 Huellas Incómodas (Uncomfortable Footprints) is a #DigitalPreservation initiative that works to document, contextualise and generate a public legacy of collective memory and the right to truth, based on #feminist social struggles in #LatinAmerica. The project arises from the ephemeral nature of expressions of protest in the physical and digital public space, which is what we call Footprints, and intervenes against the urge to erase them. https://idrhku.org/huellasincomodas/
Back in the early 2000s my political consciousness shifted from an uncritical and uneducated moderate/center-right position to a Left then eventually #socialist position. Discovering and regularly watching #DemocracyNow was a major influence in that shift. Watching DN began my journey to learning about #Palestine and US history in #LatinAmerica and so so much more. It's great to see Democracy Now! still going strong. Truly an amazing resource and amazing people.

Climate change threatens Latin American banana exports
"A study published in Nature Food has found that by 2080, rising temperatures will lead to a 60 per cent reduction in suitable areas for export #banana production in #LatinAmerica and the #Caribbean without urgent interventions to tackle #ClimateChange.
Yield declines are expected in most of the region’s current banana-growing areas."

So happy to share good news! 
The first paper from Cristina Parada's thesis is finally out.
It is a big step towards her Ph.D. in #biology

The #EU should definetely be reaching out to #LatinAmerica, and Latin America should definetely be reaching out to the EU - as well as the #baltics, the #nordics, etc.
Trade must be done, but quality must be kept. Increasing the living and production #standards so that #Europe is happy (by synchronizing those friggin #regulations) means that we can open up the #trade valves.
Let the yankies eat pink slime.
No offence, @georgetakei .
A major shift to which those outside Latin America should be more attentive:
