Massacre

Drop Site News is out this week with a devastating investigation into the bombing of the school.

The article and accompanying video is headlined "Massacre at Manab: The School That Became a Grave." We're joined right now by investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill, lead author on the report.

In a moment, Jeremy, we'll play some of your interviews with survivors, first responders, and parents.

But first, Jeremy, set up what happened that day on February 28th.

So the, the protected site of the school, the parents and the teachers thought that they would find shelter there, and the United States directly bombed that school while they were inside.

Jeremy, I wanna go to the voices of the people themselves.

Um, this is an excerpt of your Drop Site News new investigation, "Massacre at Manab: The School That Became a Grave," featuring interviews with Yaqub Yazdanpanah.

His daughter Fatima died in the strike.

Rise and Progress of the Protestant Religion in Ireland, with an Account of the Barbarous Massacre of 1641.

Part 1.

The gloom of popery had overshadowed Ireland from its first establishment there until the reign of Henry VIII, when the rays of the gospel began to dispel the darkness and afford that light which until then had been unknown in that island.

These choosing the latter, were accordingly forced by the naked weapons of their inexorable persecutors into the deep, where, with their children in their arms, they waded up to their chins, and afterwards sunk down and perished together.

And but the thing is, is that in this situation with non-Native citizens in the United States appropriating Native American ceremonies, spirituality is that our ancestors, I'm speaking for myself and most white people in the United States, you know, at some point came here from somewhere else, immigrated here, and, you know, are part of like this colonization project of, you know, the United States, which involved stealing lands from indigenous people.

And stealing those lands entailed Massacres, genocide, boarding school.

It's been a project for centuries to remove Native Americans from their land, outlaw their practicing of ceremonies.

Like there's federal laws that outlawed them being able to do their ceremonies.
