1. #History of #PacificWars - e.g. the world wars and their legacies to articulate generational impact.
2. History of nuclear activity and its impact on island/er(s).
3. #Militarisation in the region and #Demilitarisation efforts over the years.

4. US military bases in the region and the risks we face as a result (Asia-Pacific).
5. #USIran conflict implications on future of #ClimateChange efforts - particularly important because the few small victories we've had as a region have been hard-won.

Dear #MAGA #Desis & other assorted non-white ppl who support Republicans because of anti-blackness or lower taxes or the feeling of proximity to power, observe this pattern of escalating & widening targeting in #immigration policy & #deportation:

2. All undocumented immigrants

5. Reduce/eliminate residency lottery
6. Review citizenship applications for fraud & revoke citizenship &

Every beginner at anthropology, every amateur at paleontology, imagines you can predict prehistoric life from say Kalahari Bushmen.

FALSE.
The Bushmen of the Kalahari developed a hunter-gatherer lifestyle only within the last 400 years, in response to invasions by Bantu peoples.

In fairness to me, although I passed on the offer of a spliff of elephant dung, I did try chewing a bit of psychoactive bark he recommended
