Staff | democracynow.org | 2021-09-06
We look at the crisis in Afghanistan with Bilal Sarwary, an Afghan journalist who was based in Kabul and reported on Afghanistan for 20 years before he fled with his family after the Taliban seized power.

On Messi, YouTubers, Migration, and 'Venezuela Got Fixed'
Franco Vielma | orinocotribune.com | 2021-09-05
By Franco Vielma — Sep 3, 2021 | Let us begin by admitting that a good part of what we call "political debate" in Venezuela is a disorderly dispute over personal anecdotes and the country's issues. | Sometimes that diatribe has little or nothing to do with politicians or with political affairs but with other issues.
