By Richard Mertens Correspondent Luke Kapayou, who grew up on the Meskwaki Settlement in Tama, Iowa, noticed as he got older that fewer people were gardening. So he resolved to keep growing traditional beans and squash, and he began to seek out other varieties both on and off the settlement. “I don’t know, I think I believe these seeds are sacred,” he says. “It makes me want to keep growing them, and I want to make sure our kids keep growing them.” Seeds are a key part of a rising “food sovereignty” movement among Native Americans, an effort aimed at increasing local food production and reviving Indigenous practices that involve agriculture and food preparation. But it’s not all about seeds. Native Americans are also raising bison, spearing fish, and picking chokecherries. And there are a growing number of chefs who are promoting Native cuisine, among them Sean Sherman, an Oglala Lakota and recipient of a James Beard Award.

Palestinian generation gap: In politics, who speaks for the young?

A different reality Life for Palestinians in the occupied territories has changed dramatically since the 2006 election, which saw Hamas take a surprise majority – largely in protest against Fatah’s corruption – and prompted parliament’s dissolution. Fighting between Fatah and Hamas divided Palestinian society into cantons. In the West Bank, an increasingly autocratic Palestinian Authority (PA) has restricted speech freedoms and reduced a diverse and vibrant Palestinian political ecosystem to what in practice amounts to a one-party state. In Gaza, Hamas rules with an iron fist. Young Palestinians’ distrust in their leaders has deepened after years of failure to improve economic conditions, secure political or human rights, or advance statehood, while PA elites and their business partners built villas in Ramallah and Amman. Over the last two years their sense of isolation increased, perceiving that even Arab allies had turned their backs on the Palestinian cause.

Facebook is finally banning vaccine misinformation

Facebook is finally banning vaccine misinformation Vox.com 2/8/2021 Open Sourced logo Almost a year into the Covid-19 pandemic, Facebook is taking its strictest stance yet against vaccine misinformation by banning it entirely. The ban won’t just apply to Covid-19 vaccine misinformation. That means, for instance, posts claiming that vaccines cause autism, or that measles can’t kill people, are no longer allowed on Facebook. At the same time, the platform will also encourage Americans to get inoculated, and will direct people to information about when it’s their turn for a Covid-19 vaccine and how to find an available dose.
