Seeing how Mahmoud Khalil was detained is unreal. A guy wearing an Avengers shirt from an unnamed agency says “we have you,” they refuse to give their names and it seems he has no rights to be read while being arrested, all while his pregnant wife watches.

Native communities in Louisiana work to restore river cane

In Louisiana, river cane is essential to the environment and the culture of Native tribes. But this type of bamboo is vanishing there.
