With the news the last few days, I am once again in search of the Mastodon accounts of journalists and on-the-ground activists in *South Korea* and *Georgia* that can help contextualize and inform about the situations there beyond the big explosions that make international headlines.
Please share if you might know someone or are interested!
And if there is some place in the world where you'd love to follow someone on-the-ground and in the know, feel free to add that country here in the replies (and I'll answer if I know someone, and others can answer as well)

The political press in particular has a habit of stereotyping members of minorities. That’s part of why President-elect Donald Trump’s electoral performance with a range of minorities — from Latinos in the Rio Grande Valley to Arab Americans in Dearborn, Michigan, to South Asians in Edison, New Jersey to African Americans in the Bronx — was so surprising.
For years, we’ve been fed an image of these groups that erases the reality that all human beings are individuals first and foremost."

Russia is currently attacking #Georgia and #Ukraine and also occupying parts of #Moldova, not counting digital attacks against all other countries and the occasional murder on the streets of London or Paris.
Israel on the other hand is at war with terrorist groups sponsored by #Iran, an ally of Russia that would also attack Europe if it could.

In dieser Folge sprechen Dr. Karin Kneissl und Flavio von Witzleben zunächst über die bevorstehenden Wahlen in den USA und die Frage, welche Bedeutung der Ausgang derselben für die Konflikte in der Ukraine und im Nahen Osten hat. Außerdem diskutieren die beiden die Wahlen in Georgien und den Vorwurf, dass diese von Russland beeinflusst wurden. Darüber hinaus geht es um Soldaten aus Nordkorea, die in der umkämpften Region Kursk zum Einsatz kommen sollen, wie es zahlreiche westliche Politiker behaupten. Des Weiteren wird in der neuen Folge die Lage im Nahen Osten rund um einen neuen Chef der Hisbollah sowie den anhaltenden, schweren Beschuss des Libanon thematisiert. Zum Abschluss wird noch auf die schwere Krise des VW-Konzerns sowie ein geleaktes Papier von Finanzminister Christian Lindner eingegangen.
