Oppression - Joyful Noise (CMU)
"Oppression" by Ben Harper, as performed by Joyful Noise, an a capella group at CMU (with people from around CMU too!). Also some dancing by some guys from Seeds of Hope church.
Since my camera's not really awesome, here are the lyrics. Yay JN!
Oppression - Ben Harper
Oppression
you pray on us when we sleep
oppression
you chase after the tired the poor the weak
oppression
you know you mean only harm
oppression
you reach out
with your long arm
but oppression
I won't
let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear
me
oppression
you seek population control
oppression
to divide and to conquer is your goal
oppression
I swear that hatred is your home
oppression
you just won't leave bad enough alone
but oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear me
oppression
I don't see how you sleep
oppression
for your bleeding conscience I weep
oppression
you may have the dollar on your side
but
oppression
from the gospel truth you cannot hide
and
oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear me
oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall
fear me

Bush Criticizes Oppression Before Beijing Visit
SelectPlusBush Criticizes Oppression Before Beijing VisitBush Criticizes Oppression Before Beijing VisitThe Associated PressPresident Bush praised the spread of freedom in Asia while training a harsh spotlight Thursday on the region's democratic laggards, sharply criticizing oppression and human rights abuses in China, Myanmar and North Korea. (Aug. 7)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] [Notes:BEIJING]Just hours before his arrival in Beijing, and with all eyes on the kickoff of the Summer Olympics .. [Notes:Bush in receiving line-Thailand] .... President Bush has used some of his bluntest language yet to denounce China's human rights record. [Notes:Cutaways from Bangkok speech]To an audience in Thailand, he voiced "deep concerns" about the communist regime's continuing crackdown on dissent.BUSH SOT: "The United States believes the people of China deserve the fundamental liberty that is the natural right of all human beings. So America stands in firm opposition to China's detention of political dissidents, human rights advocates, and religious activists." FONT BANGKOK, Thailand [Notes:file of Hu] Bush acknowledged his words will likely irk China's leaders, but said he's convinced freedom will help China prosper. And he made a prediction.BUSH SOT: ``Change in China will arrive on its own terms and in keeping with its own history and traditions. Yet change will arrive.'' [Notes:NATS UP - dancers at Thai Mercy Center]Bush's speech came as he finished two days of visiting key U.S. allies South Korea and Thailand. [Notes:NATS Bush with kids at center] In the Thai capital, he toured a center for street kids and AIDs victims ... [Notes:Bush at luncheon with Myanmar dissidents]... and met with dissidents from neighboring Myanmar, using the session to chide THAT country's military rulers, too, about brutal repression in what HE still calls Burma.BUSH SOT: The American people care deeply about the people of Burma. And we dream for the day in which people will be free. [Notes:various olympic scenes] What remained to be seen was how blunt-spoken Bush would be during his four days in Beijing, where he's said his main goal will be to take part in the Olympic Games as a sports fan and longtime friend of China.MS, AP, Bangkok

Oppression
peace,
This interview with Dinara is from the Israeli program "Uvdah" Feb,2006. You can find the whole program here:

God says that oppression is worse than murder, one of its ugly faces is Human Trafficking, the UN estimates there are more than 800,000 being trafficked every year, many of them are forced into prostitution and threatened with death should they attempt to escape the clutches of their captors.
The real numbers maybe much higher than that, this international organized crime is hidden and most victims are too scared to come out.
"Human trafficking is so hidden, you don't know who you're fighting — the victims are so scared, they're not going to tell you what's happening to them," said Zambian Given Kachepa, a former victim of a ring that exploited Zambian orphans touring the United States in a boys choir.
Eventhough men are supposed to take care of women, mothers, sisters, wives, daughters (Quran[4:34]) some men have preffered to use and abuse them.

(Israel) Y., from Moldava, says she was forced into sado-masochism. "Customers would beat us. They had special instruments. They would drip hot wax all over my body and force me to do painful, degrading things. Of course they enjoyed it—they paid extra for it."
(Israel)N., from Ukraine, worked on Peretz Street in Tel Aviv, explains why women don't run away. "We all dreamt of escaping, but they even managed to steal the dream from us after someone did leave. A week after she disappeared, her family's home in Moldava was firebombed."
"We had nowhere to run," says H. from Ukraine. "The door was always locked, bars on the windows, and there was a closed-circuit TV in each room.
"And even if you managed to get out—where would you go? What would you do? Several customers were police officers, and other cops would check our visas and leave. So who would we have turned to for help?

Once limited to infamous locales such as Bombay and Bangkok, sex trafficking is now an $8 billion international business, with San Francisco among its largest commercial centers.
"Human trafficking is a multibillion-dollar business. In terms of profits, it's on a path to overtake drug and arms trafficking," Barry Tang
Women are scared for good reason. Those who have become witnesses have been burned with acid, have disappeared, or have had their homes ransacked and their families harmed or threatened in their home countries, said Dong Shim Kim
The United States is among the top three destination countries for sex traffickers, along with Japan and Australia.

Once a victim has reached his or her destination, the slaveholder will keep the victim indebted further to pay for the costs of travel transportation, passport, and visa fees. Then the slave enters into "debt bondage." The slave's weekly living expenses are deducted from any small credits that may be applied through his or her labor, leaving the victim always in greater debt. Many times the traffickers or "coyotes" father children of the victims. The slave lord takes the babies from their mothers to be cared for by his own family, thus holding more control over the slave to work harder to earn the baby back.

The Violent Oppression of Women
The Violent Oppression of Women in Islam, is a graphic, nightmarish, and profoundly unsettling glance into the darkest recesses of our fellow man. Narrated by Nonie Darwish, this film accurately depicts the dehumanizing theology, brutal abuse, and degredation that comprise the daily lives of millions of women in the fascist portions of the Islamic world -- arcing like a crescent from sub-Saharan Africa, through Iran, to north-central Asia and reaching into hidden pockets of the United States. These acts include the honor killing of a seven-year-old girl, beheaded for having been the victim of sexual abuse; gang-rapes, occasionally perpetrated by family members, to punish women who refuse to wear the hijab; the regular marriage of grown men to nine-year-old girls, in imitation of Islam's founder, Muhammad; genital mutilation of infant girls to destroy their sexual pleasure and objectify them as outlets for the gratification of man's lust; the widespread, often public practice of wife-battery, a practice justified by the Koran; public stonings for violations of Shari'a law; and sadly, much, much more. Taken together, the images of this video are a grotesque and disturbing assault on the integrity of women. Under no circumstances should they be viewed by children.
