PERSPECTIVA DE GÉNERO

La perspectiva de género es una iniciativa que, en su carácter oficial, lleva veinte años en desarrollo a nivel mundial. ¿Por qué en Puerto Rico existe tanta oposición a implementar la perspectiva de género en el currículo educativo? En mi humilde opinión, porque charlatanes retrógrados y oportunistas politico-religiosos se han encargado de propagar el veneno de la sinrazón, la intolerancia y el odio hacia otros seres humanos.

THEY ARE PEOPLE TOO

Children as young as 13 years old have been tried as adults and sentenced to die in prison, typically without any consideration of their age or circumstances of the offense. Many young children in America are imperiled by abuse, neglect, domestic and community violence, and poverty. Without effective intervention and help, these children suffer, struggle, and fall into despair and hopelessness.

EL GABISMO

La agente literaria del recién fallecido Gabriel García Márquez, Carmen Barcells, proclamó que tras la muerte del autor surgirá una nueva religión que se conocerá como el “gabismo”. En mi ya encontró un nuevo feligrés.

TOUGHEST JOB

The three closest women in my life (in order of appearance) are my mom, my wife and my daughter. And I love them with all my heart. I also feel great love and respect for my female relatives and friends. Because of that, I can tell you that the World’s Toughest Job viral video is the stupidest advertising campaign I’ve seen, so far.

DISGRACEFUL

A new report from the Treatment Advocacy Center (TAC) concludes that the United States’s prison system has fully returned to the 18th-century. Roughly 356,268 individuals with severe mental illnesses are kept in prisons and jails rather than in mental hospitals. The US “correction” system is a disgrace.
