Flamenco
***
Flamenco is a Spanish musical genre with strong, rhythmic undertones and is often accompanied with a similarly impassioned style of dance characterized by its powerful yet graceful execution, as well as its intricate hand and footwork. Flamenco embodies a complex musical and cultural tradition. Although considered part of the culture of Spain in general, flamenco actually originates from one region: Andalusia. However, other areas, mainly Extremadura and Murcia, have contributed to the development of several flamenco musical forms, and a great number of renowned flamenco artists have been born in other territories of the state. The roots of flamenco are not precisely known, but it is generally acknowledged that flamenco grew out of the unique interplay of native Arabic, Andalusian, Islamic, Sephardic, and Gypsy cultures that existed in Andalusia prior to and after the Reconquest. Latin American and especially Cuban influences have also been important in shaping several flamenco musical forms.
Once the seeds of flamenco were planted in Andalusia, it grew as a separate subculture, first centered in the provinces of Seville, Cádiz and part of Málaga—the area known as Baja Andalucía (Lower Andalusia)—but soon spreading to the rest of Andalusia, incorporating and transforming local folk music forms. As the popularity of flamenco extended to other areas, other local Spanish musical traditions (e.g. the Castilian traditional music) would also influence, and be influenced by, the traditional flamenco styles.

弗拉明戈（Flamenco，又译“佛朗明哥”、“佛拉门戈”），是一种源于西班牙南部安达卢西亚地区的艺术形式，包括歌曲、音乐和舞蹈。
弗拉明戈的形成深受安达鲁西亚地区的摩尔人和犹太人的影响，还吸收了大量罗姆人（吉普赛人）的艺术元素。当代著名的弗拉明戈舞蹈家大多是罗姆人。由于西班牙政府以此推动旅游业，弗拉明戈舞已经成了西班牙舞蹈甚至西班牙文化的代表。
弗拉明戈音乐有50种，每种有自己的节奏模式。弗拉明戈舞蹈是一种即兴舞蹈，没有固定的动作，全靠舞者和演唱、伴奏的人以及观众之间的情绪互动。

The scene of the crime, really. Upon our return from Eastbourne we see Northumberland blocked off by police tape. An officer seeing my camera tersely instructs us to "move along". It might be an accident? What happened, nobody knows, or they are not saying. Tellingly a little white tent in front of the Nigerian Embassy immediately across the street from our hotel is the center of interest of the police. The police erect these tents to cover homicide victims. They are taking measurements, and many pictures. We canvas the desk clerk who bluntly says that someone was shot, and probably killed in what was described as a an execution. Was it a murder? I don't know, it seems all the information was embargoed, so far, no media carried a trace of the story.
Exiting a door of the prison turning right, was the walk through the gateway to the execution yard.
When I took this picture I was upset by the person who walked into view.
Later looking at it, it sent shivers down my spine as it looked to me like a soldier stading guard with a rifle slung over his shoulder.
Since the 1994 passage of the free-trade agreement, NAFTA, the U.S. has increased their southern Border Patrol by 500%. The US spends over $90 billion a year to "secure" the southern border and arm a para-military force that spends 80% of its time confronting political and economic refugees (fleeing US-backed military and economic policies) and those seeking to reunite with their families. Over the past decade the "Drug War" has left 100,000 dead and a had a zero impact on the availability of illegal drugs in the US. Human rights organizations have documented the use of torture and enforced disappearances and executions by Mexican military and police, many trained in the US. The delegation visited Tucson and both of the towns of Nogales on either side of the border. Delegates had the opportunity to experience programs that directly serve migrants at the border, and met with organizations that directly aid migrants in the desert. We also met with human rights organizations, immigrant advocates, and faith-based groups.Together we explored ways in which we can help change this untenable and deadly US immigration policy.
