Whew, I've been slacking lately.
Well, not really. I've been burnin' and turnin' at school.
I suppose...who said getting a Master's Degree was going to be easy? No one in the history of mankind.
I am posting about a place I have not been, but would like to go.
Bhopal, India.
In a class called "Anthropology and the Environment" we are reading a book called: Advocacy After Bhopal: Environmentalism, Disaster, New Global Orders. It is about the Union Carbide chemical disaster and those who were/are victims of it. It is surprising how little they were compensated or helped after it happened.
While the pictures are hard to look at, I encourage you to see the damage that was done. Also, if you have a minute, read a little article about it. I did not realize how little I knew about the subject until I started to read this book. Hope you learned a little something too.
