Guest Blogger 3

The next in the series of guest blogger posts from Abravenel, this time with a personal piece about growing up with anti-Semitism in Greece. Regular readers of this blog know that I am not keen on swearing or obscenities in articles but in this case, it was important to keep the text intact. You will […]

Alex Update

This week has seen breakthroughs in the probable murder of little Alex Meshivili, more than a year after he disappeared on his way home from his basketball practice. I want to cry every time I read about him. I cannot help but identify with his mother. My kid is about the same age. They both […]

5 for Feminism

I got tagged by Toomanytribbles and here it is (a little late!)
5 things I can thank feminism for

I have had many more opportunities than I would have had.
I’ve had to question everything I do!
I am fairly happy.
My son will (hopefully) question everything he does
if you want to […]

Miss Landmine

Go over to Black Looks and read this article about a Norwegian project to promote a beauty contest for landmine survivors in Angola and to create a fashion magazine for specially designed clothes for survivors. My reaction when I read it was similar to Sokari’s.
my gut reaction to this is that it is highly offensive, […]

I am looking for people who are very involved in the Greek blogoshere (I wish there was a better word for it) who would be willing to do some research. You would need to comfortable in both Greek and English and have your finger on the pulse. The research is not for me but I […]

Human Rights

The US state department country report for Greece 2006 has been published. I blogged the report on religious freedom in September and began the article with this statement. I am copy/pasting it here because I believe it is relevant.
Every year the US State Department (Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor) issues an International Religious […]

History Books

As an aside to the article by guest blogger, abravanel, I read today in Kathimerini that the Academy of Athens is the latest body to issue a damning verdict of a history textbook for 12-year-olds.
They believe that it skirts over some of the key moments in Greek history
I am not sure which key moments they […]
