Running around NY on behalf of most persecuted.

You won't believe what I have achieved by just one click. Also how just one factoid, given to me in conversation, while walking in NY, helped me. This was the first person, a former student, who told me of the 1982 racist Burmese "law." Set from above by 4 men, including dictator Ne Win. "We just thought 1824 (first Anglo Burmese War, is too far off, so we chose 1886 (3rd Anglo-Burmese War.)" In my book length poem Shee Monkey goes West, a Pew finalist script, the Jade Emperor looks at a chart to see if the red bottom monkeys are the "right shade." Don't be an extreme nationalist/racist bigot, evil person who thinks only polka dots or stripes have rights. Refugees mean they sought refuge--and Burma is supposed to be Buddhist, but maybe the m. country is--it is racist. Enough. km
