"The collective trauma left on Turkish society by the Marmara quake never disappeared ... Studies put the PTSD rates among the survivors as high as 76%."

Turkey’s 1999 temblor taught too few lessons about how to prepare, writes @Nick_Ashdown. https://t.co/pQBorg2Iux

#Almanya’ya yerleşen Türklere yönelik #yabancıdüşmanlığı 80’li yılların ortalarına doğru başladı. O dönem #Türkenraus yani #Türklerdefol ülkede en ünlü sloganlardan biriydi. Bugün, benzer ırkçı ifadeler #Türkiye sokaklarında #Suriyeli sığınmacılara yöneltiliyor.

[Anna Iasmi Vallianatou @annajasminaa]

In my first @Guardian piece, I argue that Europe’s fear of migration and the policy of “keep migrants out” at any cost have enabled #Belarus – like previously Turkey and Morocco – to use refugees as bargaining chips. (1/3)

A Prius being washed away in a deluge caused by torrential rain in the scars of wildfires is the perfect metaphor for how individual consumer decisions are not enough to address climate change.
