Pastor Steven Turikunkiko has set up a community in Rwanda for victims of the genocide. 160 widows & teenagers & 80 younger children live with him; farming, sharing their lives and caring for those dying from AIDS. The community subsists on less than $1 per person per day. At enormous personal sacrifice, Pastor Steven and his wife have also adopted 20 orphans - who live with them and their 2 other children.

  Young people are subjected to racist comments on the Internet more than ever before. That is the result of research by Professor Brendesha Tynes from the University of Illinois.Tynes suggests that a lot of attention is given to cyber-bullying - but not enough to cyber-racism. Her research has found that 71% of African-American young people have been at the receiving end of cyber-racism at least once. 20% of white young people claim to have been subjected to these attacks too. As a result, the research shows, females are more likely to suffer depression. Professor Tynes and her co-authors have published the results of their research in The Journal of Adolescent Health. |
