Colombian Hearts in Washington DC: white-washing crimes of Alvaro Uribe

[saulsix]

Focusing on the problems is not showing colombia's bad side it's actually showing how much pride people have on defending their rights and their land.

Trying to sugar coat the reality with images of colpatria or nice residences in the "Rosales" will not make the true go away.

I've been to Colombia and I know how beautiful the country and the people are, and I certainly admire the men who speak out to defend their children and their right for a better future.

Muy bien Carlitos, Es en Colombia donde la verdadera matanza y violacion de los derechos humanos existe, muy pocos medios reportan estas barbaridades. Pero si critican a Hugo Chavez por no renovarle una licencia a un canalito en Venezuela.

We need ANOTHER pro-labor protest against the FASCIST government of Colombia and the US which enables them.

I sure those people are more aware of Colombian politics and foreigh politics than than you are. there is another side of the story, where indigenous and afro-colombian people are opressed and killed on the daily basis for fighting the right to survive. if you read Colombian history from the colonization till now you will understand where are we coming...from.

ok, here is what a got to say: can`t wait to also finish university in Canada to go back to ma beautiful country Colombia and contribute in its growth and development. I like the hearths campaign a lot because it brings awareness of our country. Then people we`ll go home, google Colombia...read about it, educate themselves about the situation and hopefully do something about it. :-)

Its very sad to see how little knowledge ppl has about what is happening around in the world, as with the Awa indians,,

We can sit in our living rooms and enjoy our coffee, and have no idea or if we care where and how this coffee comes..

Siempre he abogado por la libertad d expresión como herramienta para lograr un país mas justo y tolerante. Por eso me parece valido tu activísimo, Sin embargo no estoy de acuerdo con algunas d las hipotesis que planteas. Tampoco estoy de acuerdo con el TLC, pero el mundo debe saber Colombia es mas q droga y violencia, Tu lo has dicho Colombia tiene 2 caras, y siempre se muestra la obscura, ya basta. Yo fui desplazada y no me canso d mostrarle a todos la otra cara que pocos conocen.
