It is a highly stigmatizing, though in most cases treatable condition that results from pro- longed, obstetric labor and cases chronic incontinence. The Somaliland campaign which is part of a larger global cam- paign, addresses all aspects of obstetric fistula, from prevention and treatment to social reintegration of woman recovering from treatment.

  • James' Thesis: “After Hitler Our Turn”
    THE ANNUAL CLR JAMES MEMORIAL LECTURE MARCH, 28, 2017 THE RISE OF RIGHT WING NATIONALISM AND POPULISM AND CLR JAMES’ THESIS: “AFTER HITLER OUR TURN” DELIVERED BY DAVID ABDULAH POLITICAL LEADER, THE MOVEMENT FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE AND FORMER LONG SERVING OFFICER OF THE OILFIELDS WORKERS’ TRADE UNION Let me first thank the Oilfields Workers’ Trade Union for inviting me to deliver the 2017 CLR James Memorial Lecture. I always thought that I would be the organizer, or in some way involved in the organization, of this Annual Memorial Lecture. I certainly did not envisage that I would one day be asked to actually deliver the Lecture. I suppose that is a factor of one’s seniority! The Union started this Lecture Series in 1999, the year of the tenth anniversary of CLR’s death. The First Lecture was delivered by Tim Hector, Antiguan and Caribbean radical thinker and political activist who was himself a foremost Jamesian. Tim, also being deeply connected with West Indies cricket, spoke about our cricket and the state of the West Indies. It was, as usual, a tour de force. Since that time we’ve had a very distinguished group of speakers – Professor Anthony Bogues (at that time at the Centre for Caribbean Thought, Mona, UWI and Brown University); Professor Acklyn Lynch (then at the University of Maryland, Baltimore) who did a lecture discussion on the film “Lumumba”; Lloyd Best (the tenth anniversary of whose passing we mark this month); Dr. Pat Bishop who spoke to us about what work is and what work is not; Dr.

  • Ghost Net Impacts on Coral Reefs Time to Complete Lesson: 20-30 Minutes
    Ghost (net) Busters Ghost Net Impacts on Coral Reefs Time to complete lesson: 20-30 minutes Purpose of module: This module allows students to simulate the impacts of ghost nets on a coral reef. Students will build a model healthy reef ecosystem, damage it using a ghost net, and then remove it from the reef. Students will conduct a damage assessment caused by the net dragging across the reef using quadrats. Background information: Coral reefs, also known as the rainforests of the sea, are one of the most diverse and ecologically complex marine ecosystems. They are found in warm, tropical waters with high salinity and high light exposure. A coral reef is made up of individual coral polyps that resemble tiny anemones and are attached to the reef. Each coral polyp is less than half an inch in diameter, but they live in colonies which Figure 1: A healthy coral reef system. can expand and take up the size of a small car. Reef building corals have a skeleton made of calcium carbonate, a mineral that is left behind when an individual coral dies. Another coral may settle on that spot and grow on top of the remaining skeleton. This allows a coral reef to grow a few centimeters each year, eventually reaching massive sizes. Coral reefs provide food and shelter for many plants, invertebrates, and fish. It is estimated that at least 25% of all marine life spendCredit: part MostBeautifulThings.net of their life at a coral reef. Coral reefs provide shelter for small fish, and small fish attract larger fish, which in turn attract large predators like sharks.
