Pawo Tsewang Norbu self-immolated in protest three years ago today, on 2/25/22, at the age of 25, in front of the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet.
Reports from Lhasa say he chanted "Free Tibet" and called for the safe return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama as he self-immolated.

Le 25 février 1969, à #Prague, un jeune étudiant #tchèque de 18 ans s’immolait par le feu à deux pas de la place Venceslas. Comme Jan Palach 40 jours plus tôt, Jan Zajíc entendait ainsi protester contre l’occupation de la Tchécoslovaquie par les troupes du pacte de Varsovie depuis août 1968.

En décembre, Trump Junior s'est rendu à Venise où il a participé à une partie de chasse dans la lagune. Sur une vidéo, on le voit poser avec ses proies, dont p(au moins) un canard d'une espèce rare et protégée. En Italie, seuls les résidents peuvent obtenir un permis de chasse.

"Every language," wrote Wade Davis, "is an old-growth forest of the mind."
Languages that hold not only the living histories, memories and relationships of entire cultures but that tell of other ways of being in the world. Each lost language is a felled forest.
