My short writing bio--
I am a published writer of short and long fiction--and an award-winning poet (William Carlos Williams Award of the Academy of American Poets). I was a Pew Finalist in Literature twice, Edward Albee praised my play Shaman and it won a Pennsylvania Council of the Arts Award.
I have published short stories, novellas and a full length novel Wolf on Amazon, I broadcast to Burma for Democracy. My work has appeared in The Philadelphia Inquirer Sunday Magazine, Wild River River, the Northern Virginia Review, Gravity Dancers (DC Women Writers); poetry was anthologized in Norton's Language for a New Century, featured on Asian-American Verse Beings. Two poetry chapbooks (Tibetan Tanka and Pelted with Petals: The Burmese Poems), dozens of readings and painting exhibits internationally. In 2012, I was one of the first to speak up about the Rohingya Genocide.
My Activists' Handbook--The Rohingya Genocide in Burma--
This book gives the background of the Rohingya, a subset of Burmese Muslims, and here you will find the names of all the activists and groups you need to know to become an Activist yourself.
Speak up, try not to endanger yourself, support those who do.
In this case, we are all Muslim, as the Burmese junta is an equal opportunity human rights abuser.

Documentary--how the earth was formed
Best watched in 3 parts or over and over again.
Written by Billy Pink and beautifully narrated and illustrated.
For those racists who look down on Africans and on shrews, and those Burmese --

The Bamboo People by Mitali Perkins
I
have not read it yet, looks to be about child soldiers in Burma. The
names appear strange, but they may be Karen or Karenni names-
I don't think it is YA or Young Adult either--you'll have to decide for yourself.

Just take the time and go down the line and watch everything, esp. intv of John Brennan.
Very cogent, totally unlike trmp hopping around posturing and saying this and that, hate mongering.
