Captive
I don’t know where I am, but I know I traveled to get here, along with others like me. I awake to a pool of blood burgundy around me. I hear roars as loud and symphonic as crashing waves, damning me to an induced hysteria. I’m anxious and nervous, and saturated by a mist! I feel icky. I also struggle to comprehend why I’m here, but I know I emerged from a place of darkness.

Electoral bond. Content Warning.
The issue of electoral bonds has been a topic of concern in many democracies, as it can potentially undermine the transparency and fairness of electoral processes. In the context of India, the Election Commission and the political parties, specifically the role of the Indian National Congress (INEC), play a crucial part in addressing and preventing any negative impacts associated with electoral bonds.Introduction: Electoral bonds were introduced in India as a mechanism to bring transparency to political funding by allowing donors to contribute to political parties through banks. However, concerns have been raised about the anonymity and potential misuse of these bonds, as the details of the donors are not disclosed to the public. The INEC, as the regulatory body overseeing elections in India, has a vital role in ensuring the integrity of the electoral process.Challenges and Concerns: One of the primary challenges with electoral bonds is the lack of transparency, as the source of funding remains undisclosed. This secrecy can lead to a situation where political parties might be influenced by undisclosed contributors, compromising the democratic process. Additionally, there is a risk of black money entering the political system through these bonds, further undermining the principles of transparency and fairness.INEC's Role in Addressing Electoral Bond Issues:Advocacy for Transparency: INEC can play a pivotal role in advocating for greater transparency in political funding. This involves pushing for reforms that ensure the disclosure of the identity of electoral bond donors. By doing so, the public can be better informed about the financial backers of political parties, promoting accountability.Stricter Regulations: The Election Commission can work with the government to establish stricter regulations surrounding electoral bonds. This might include setting limits on the amount of money that can be donated through bonds, as well as implementing measures to prevent the use of illicit funds in the political process.Enhanced Monitoring and Enforcement: INEC should enhance its monitoring and enforcement mechanisms to ensure that political parties comply with the regulations related to electoral bonds. This involves conducting thorough audits and investigations into the financial transactions of political parties to detect any irregularities.Public Awareness Campaigns: The Election Commission can undertake public awareness campaigns to educate citizens about the implications of electoral bonds on the democratic process. This can empower voters to make informed decisions and put pressure on political parties to adopt more transparent funding practices.Engagement with Political Parties: INEC can engage in a constructive dialogue with political parties to discuss the concerns associated with electoral bonds. By fostering cooperation and understanding, the commission can encourage parties to voluntarily adopt more transparent funding practices and collaborate on improving the electoral system.Conclusion: In conclusion, addressing the challenges posed by electoral bonds requires a multi-facete

A time for crime
I had plenty of time to think about it during those long night shifts. In the end, I couldn’t believe how easy it was. As a security guard at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, I had access to all areas. It took less than twenty minutes during the evening lockup. I slipped into the gallery, carefully razoring the painting out of its frame, before replacing it with a beautifully crafted fake. It would not fool anyone taking a closer look, but it gave me time to get away.

Murder
The murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till in 1955 brought nationwide attention to the racial violence and injustice prevalent in Mississippi. While visiting his relatives in Mississippi, Till went to the Bryant store with his cousins, and may have whistled at Carolyn Bryant. Her husband, Roy Bryant, and brother-in-law, J.W. Milam, kidnapped and brutally murdered Till, dumping his body in the Tallahatchie River. The newspaper coverage and murder trial galvanized a generation of young African Americans to join the Civil Rights Movement out of fear that such an incident could happen to friends, family, or even themselves. Many interviewees in the Civil Rights History Project remember how this case deeply affected their lives.
