Two great pieces on Somalia


Most of the mainstream discourse on Somalia and the Somali pirates is disastrously misinformed. If you're interested in learning more about this tortured African nation, please check out these two great pieces that came out this week:

"Analysis: Somalia Piracy Began in Response to Illegal Fishing and Toxic Dumping by Western Ships off Somali Coast" from last Tuesday's Democracy Now

and

"Obama and Somalia," written by Bill Fletcher Jr., which appeared in Black Commentator and on Znet.
