Dear Friends: Work has slowed on the 3rd Journal, not enough hands or hours to get it all done.
A new film will be coming out in Jan. 2008 from the Czech Republic, Prisoners of a White God, a film on the human rights situation of the Akha people. We have asked the Oregon State Board of Higher Education to rescind the PhD. of Paul W. Lewis, as it is based on a thesis that involved the steriliztaions of Akha women who were not given the opportunity for Free, Prior and Informed Consent. Does anyone have any information on where Paul W. Lewis came from prior to 1948? I am going to be ordering up a bunch of black Akha.org hats. Available for a $50 donation. Let me know if you are interested. Draft Declaration for Indigenous Peoples passed the UN vote on Sept. 13, 2007 Thank you, Matthew McDaniel The Akha Heritage Foundation. http://www.akha.org Akha Heritage Site. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Akhaweeklyjournal Discussion http://groups.yahoo.com/group/akha Donate Via Credit Card Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=akha%40akha.org PO Box 6073 Salem, OR. 97304 USA. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Pinpoint customers who are looking for what you sell. http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/
