However, what is a little disappointing is the fixation with riot porn that seems to dominate some of the editorial choices on indymedia. I am sorry I can not offer more energy to help build up more human stories and backgrounds and to help understand why there are differences in people's situations.

Because of the people all involved in taking care of that community, (which is even evident in the photos shown here). The true bravery is being able to eek out an existence and maintain mutual safety and care in such a situation. 'Da's pas kraken.'
