Educating Myself & Donating

I realized I don't know a lot about so many topics concerning human rights and atrocities and how to help (especially occrurences near me) So I thought I'd start educating myself.

There's some learning and some places to donate on here. It's a work in progress.

Feel free to reach out to me with questions: adiaz@alum.mit.edu

1. Educate Yourself
2. Donate



Educating Myself

Recent MIT interview about American Indians and how MIT has played a mostly harmful and negative role with respect to them. There are also many resources at the bottom of the page: https://shass.mit.edu/news/news-2021-indigenous-mit-interview-david-shane-lowry

Atrocities against the Native American people. My friend Sydney sent this to me. I haven't confirmed all of the statements in this website, but what I have confirmed seems to be correct and I think it's fairly comprehensive: Atrocities against the Native American people

Black Lives Matter Campaign in 1951 (also many other American Social Movements from 1870s-1970s): https://depts.washington.edu/moves/CRC_genocide.shtml

Sterilization in the US: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1449330/

Sterilization in Peru, which I learned about in class at MIT: sterilization in Peru
