社説：ＴＰＰ反対論 米国陰謀説は的外れ
毎日新聞 2011年10月31日
主権国家が日本を含めれば１０カ国集まり、相互の複雑な利害を調整する場である。日本だけが一方的に不利益をこうむるはずがない。
そもそも米国はＴＰＰに日本が参加することを想定していなかった。
米国はアジア市場で米国抜きの自由貿易圏が形成されるのをおそれ、ＴＰＰによってアジア関与を強めようとしている。数カ国で開放度の非常に高い自由貿易圏を作り、それを広げ、最終的には中国も含めたアジア太平洋経済協力会議（ＡＰＥＣ）諸国全体を包み込む狙いだ
アイヌ民族の政治団体結成へ…参院選擁立目指す
アイヌ民族の権利を回復する施策を推進するため、アイヌ民族初の政治団体の結成を目指す準備会が２９日に発足した。
政治団体の結成は来年１月を目標にしており、２０１３年の参院選では、比例選などに候補者１０人の擁立を目指すという。
札幌市で２９日に発足した準備会の会合では、アイヌ民族初の国会議員で２００６年に亡くなった萱野茂・元参院議員の次男で、二風谷アイヌ資料館（北海道平取町）の萱野志朗館長が代表に就任した。
萱野代表によると、政治団体メンバーや候補者はアイヌ民族に限定しない方針。萱野代表は「アイヌ民族の生活環境の向上が遅々として進んでいない。国会議員を送り出す必要がある」としている。

アイヌ民族が初の政党結成へ 参院比例に候補擁立目指す
アイヌ民族による政治団体が北海道で発足することが２９日決まった。アイヌ民族が求める施策が実現しないことへの不満と危機感が背景にあり、参院選比例区や地方選での候補者擁立を目指す。政治団体として選管へ届け出をし、年明けに結成大会を開く予定だ。
同日夜、札幌市で「アイヌ民族党（仮称）」結成に向けた準備会が開かれた。代表には、アイヌ民族初の国会議員、故萱野茂・参院議員の次男、志朗氏（５３）＝萱野茂二風谷アイヌ資料館館長＝が就任する見通し。役員には、アイヌ民族最大の団体・北海道アイヌ協会理事や支部長も名を連ねる予定だが、同協会全体として党を支援するかどうかは未定という。同協会によると、アイヌ民族による政治団体の結成は初めて。
参院選比例区には候補者１０人程度の擁立を検討。候補者は原則、アイヌ民族とするが、アイヌ民族でなくても党には加入できるという。

Minnesota Man Gets 8-Plus Years In Racially Motivated Assault
Eastwood and another man, 29-year-old Travis Campbell, were involved in a fight at Yesterday’s Gone Bar in February where a 58-year-old black man was assaulted.
According to a criminal complaint, Eastwood said he wanted to “beat up the black guy,” who was later identified as Willie Navy.
The two men punched and kicked Navy in the head. Navy needed multiple surgeries after the incident and could ultimately lose vision in one eye.
The complaint states Navy was jumped because he is black and staff at the bar knew he was being targeted.

Women of Color Seen As Always Sexually Available
By Jaclyn Friedman
WeNews guest author
Sunday, October 30, 2011
The stereotypes of women of color as always being sexually available show how undervalued they are, says Jaclyn Friedman in her new book "What You Really Really Want." In this excerpt, she explores the overlap of race and sexuality.
Consider, for example, the image of the "innocent virgin." Picture her in your mind's eye. Maybe take a moment now to draw a picture of her, or write down a description of what she looks like.
What did you draw or describe? Was it a white girl with long hair? Maybe blond, blue-eyed, or freckle-faced? If it was, it's not an accident. Because we live in a racist society that values white girls more than girls of color, we tend to imagine that purity is pale.
That assumption has a terrible flip side: Girls of color are often viewed as always sexually available, simply because of their race. Just look at the specific stereotypes: Latina women are "spicy," Middle Eastern and South Asian women are simultaneously "exotic" and "repressed," Asian women are "submissive," black women are "wild" or "animalistic"--it doesn't matter what disgusting stereotype you choose, it boils down to the same thing: Women of color are assumed to be always available for sex.

Czech Television: Right-wing extremist membership increasing among youth
Praha/Plzeň, 30.10.2011 13:26, (ROMEA)

The number of young people involved in neo-Nazism in the Czech Republic is growing. Experts on extremism say people are also joining the ultra-right at younger and younger ages. The primary influence on this shift is said to be the internet and social networking. Despite the fact that the prevention of extremism is ostensibly a priority for Czech ministries, Czech Television reports that no obligation to educate schoolchildren about the risks of extremism has been established yet.

African Jobseekers In Australia Shunned By Employers
A Carlton program helping African men find work says its progress has been “depressingly slow” because of racial discrimination from employers.“So what’s the fence between the two (the jobseekers and employers)?”
Omar Farah (pictured), the administrator of the Horn Afrik project established by the Carlton Local Agency Network, has spent five years encouraging companies to give immigrants from the Horn of Africa a fair go.
But he said men from Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti and Ethiopia were being offered jobs as taxi drivers, child minders or cleaners – despite many having Masters and PhD qualifications from Australian universities.
“These people are here, they are Australian, they are qualified, they are educated by Australian institutions and the jobs they are looking for are available in Australia,” Mr Farah said.

David Whelan sparks outrage saying players 'out of order' to complain about race reference
Oct 29 2011 By Dave Kidd
WIGAN chairman Dave Whelan sparked outrage last night by insisting that players are ‘out of order’ to complain about being referred to by their race.
England skipper John Terry is currently under investigation by the FA for allegedly calling QPR defender Anton Ferdinand a ‘black c***’ during last Sunday’s west London derby.
But Whelan controversially said it would not be a major issue if a black player abused a white opponent in the same way, and claims that Terry should not be in trouble for using the term.
Revelations of real Racism

The sage of Orrell, Dave Whelan has come out to add his voice to the ongoing debate focusing on racism within football, and its affects on black players and the image of the sport.
Over the past few weeks Wenger, Whelan, Sir Alex and Daglish have all waded into the mire to suggest that issues regarding racism and football are not as severe as the press would have us believe. They are all men who perhaps recall the seventies and eighties, where the visceral manifestation of racism was apparent within the stands, where abuse was accepted and common place. John Barnes and the banana immediately springs to mind, and acts as another marker to compare just how far we have come within England, not just in the stands, but also in society as a whole.
But football for me still retains its racist agenda, but it now presents itself in far more complex ways, than just through the lips of a footballer.
Whether on not Evra was the target of abuse, or if John Terry did mouth reprehensible words that has children crying at night and nuns locking themselves in basements is irrelevant. This level of verbal abuse, although not condoned, actually is the least of the sins we are being exposed to. For all of Cesc Fabregas’ protestations, and Fredi Kanoute’s reaction, we are avoiding the bigger picture when it comes to racism.

食品の放射能―安心へ手だてを尽くせ
食品に含まれる放射性物質の基準が厳しくなる。福島第一原発事故の直後から暫定基準が使われてきたが、やっと見直されることになった。
３１日に開かれた厚生労働省の薬事・食品衛生審議会で、食品に含まれる放射性セシウムによって受ける放射線の上限を年間１ミリシーベルトとする案が厚労省から示された。
現行の暫定基準は年間５ミリシーベルトで、飲料水、牛乳・乳製品、野菜類、穀類、肉類と、五つの食品群ごとに、１年に食べる量を考えて１キログラム当たりの規制値を決めた。
幸い、農産物などから検出される放射能は減っている。食品ごとの新しい規制値は来春施行の予定という。国民の健康を守るのはもちろん、消費者の安心につながるよう、十分な説明など手だてを尽くしてほしい。
「１ミリ」という値はどうか。
内閣府の食品安全委員会は先週、「健康影響が見いだされるのは、食品中の放射性物質による被曝（ひばく）が生涯の累積でおよそ１００ミリシーベルト以上」とする答申をまとめた。１００ミリシーベルトはこれ以上だと発がんの影響が科学的に明らかで、０．５％リスクが高まるとされる。今生まれた子供が１００年生きるとして、単純に割ると１年当たり１ミリシーベルトとなる。
同じ量でも、少しずつの方がリスクはより低いとも考えられており、安全側に立った数字といっていいだろう。
The safety standards concerning radioactive materials in food products will be tightened. Since the devastating accident at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant broke out in March, provisional standards have been used. The government has finally started taking steps to revise them. During an Oct. 31 meeting of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's Pharmaceutical Affairs and Food Sanitation Council, the ministry proposed lowering the permitted limit on radiation exposure due to radioactive cesium contained in food products to 1 millisievert per year from the current 5 millisieverts. The current standards set exposure limits for five categories of food products--drinking water, milk and dairy products, vegetables, cereals and meat. For each type of food, the permissible amount of radiation contained in 1 kilogram has been determined in consideration of the average annual consumption of the food. Fortunately, the levels of radiation detected in farm products have been declining. The new radiation standards for the food categories will be introduced next spring, according to the government. The government should take all possible measures, including providing adequate information about the new standards to the public, to ensure the revised guidelines will protect the health of the people and allay concerns about radiation among consumers. Is the new upper limit of 1 millisievert per year reasonable? Last week, the Cabinet Office's Food Safety Commission announced its recommendations of safety standards concerning radiation in food, which say a cumulative dose of 100 millisieverts or more over a lifetime could affect human health. There is clear scientific evidence that exposure to 100 millisieverts or more of radiation raises the risk of developing cancer. It has been estimated that exposure to 100 millisieverts increases the cancer risk by 0.5 percent. Assuming that a baby born now lives to be 100, the cumulative lifetime dose of 100 millisieverts translates into an average annual dose of 1 millisievert for the person. It is generally believed that even for the same cumulative dose the health risk is smaller if the amount of each exposure is smaller. The proposed new exposure limit can be described as based on the principle that it would be better to err on the side of safety.
