One list is for people directly interested in discussing issues related to work with the Akha people as they might relate to other groups and similar situations. This list is called Akha and you may subscribe to it by sending an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with NO SUBJECT and NO TEXT OR SIGNATURE. or you may go to http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/akha The second list is for anyone interested in indigenous issues with a focus on finding specific solutions to specific problems. Some problems are political and theoretical, but the focus of this list is finding solutions to these problems in the specific and also specific solutions to specific physical problems for the indigenous in their daily lives, land, water, medicine, books in their language, indigenous knowledge recording and distribution within their communities, food shortages, seeds, leadership, etc. This list is predominantly for people living and working in the third world. By third world we mean nations classified as such, I think everyone gets the point, but we are not refering to these nations, rather indigenous communities who live in these contries and lives are complicated by the fact that they are not recognized in this context. Life for the indigenous in third world countries has unique problems for them but also for those who would attempt to work with them. Others may enter the discussion but that is what the list is predominantly for. Once again, specific problems with specific solutions. To subscribe, anyone may subscribe, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with NO SUBJECT and NO TEXT OR SIGNATURE. Or http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/indigenous3rdworld ANYONE can join regardless of race or creed. Respect is the rule, regardless of how heated the subject may be. Please refrain from personal attacks. At the same time allow people who have a lesser understanding to discuss the issues and learn without attacking where they are currently coming from. Lets try to be understanding and go for solutions to problems that we are trying to solve rather than focusing solely on perceived philosophical differences.
