This week in history: July 26-August 1

This week in history: July 26-August 1 25 July 2021 Megawati Sukarnoputri On July 27,1996, Indonesian government forces attacked the head office of ousted Indonesian Democratic Party (PDI) leader Megawati Sukarnoputri. The military junta used thousands of riot police and troops to put down protests by her supporters. The clashes were the most serious in the capital since President Suharto and his fellow generals seized power in the bloody coup of 1965. Megawati was removed as PDI leader at a party congress orchestrated by the Suharto regime. Hand-picked delegates replaced her with Suharto’s nominee, former PDI leader Suryadi. The military moved in as the protests surrounding the PDI offices threatened to generate a wider movement involving industrial workers, sections of the middle class and university youth.

Police encounter with Black Army officer is a hurtful reminder that service is not going to save you, veterans say

Police encounter with Black Army officer is a hurtful reminder that ‘service is not going to save you,’ veterans say Alex Horton Replay Video UP NEXT As an infantry soldier, Isiah Jones survived three brutal combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, but it was police outside the garrison walls at home in the United States who other Black soldiers warned him about. The first thing law enforcement would assess in any encounter, they cautioned, was his race. The lesson was fresh in his mind this past weekend, after watching viral video of a traffic stop showing a Black National Guard officer being pepper-sprayed, threatened, struck and handcuffed by Virginia police late last year.
