This is the biggest fail of the week.

This is fake news? I’m here on the island. I’m a doctor on the island who is working 13-19 hour shifts in a hospital that was partially damaged and is operating with NO air conditioning and limited supplies. There are lines for the dead people for morgue, there are lines for the emergency room and we have told the masses that we cannot take anyone unless it’s a life or death situation. Meaning if you have an bullet in your body, for example, and it’s not hitting a vital organ we are not offering our services. Here’s the news from OUR news paper: http://m.primerahora.com/noticias/puerto-rico/nota/desesperacionporlasaltastemperaturasenelhospitaldelaupr-1248241/ HERES AN ARTICLE IN ENGLISH EXPLAINING THE HORRIBLE CRISIS WE ARE HAVING WITH OUR HOSPITALS https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/sep/27/puerto-rico-faces-a-health-crisis-made-worse-as-majority-of-hospitals-are-inadequate I am a citizen that has spend my “free hours” queuing in line for up to 8 hours to get gas for my car, 2 hours to get into a supermarket only to find there’s no drinking water, there’s no bread, no vegetables only junk food, 3 hours to retire cash from a bank ATM because no open establishment is accepting cards. There are people dying of hunger, thirst and lack of shelter. While USA military has removed hundreds of sheltered citizens from our coliseum to make space for US guards. Source: NOTIUNO Now you can choose to turn your back and make believe this isn’t happening, but do not dare say that my post is fake news because this is real and this is happening to 3 MILLION American citizens in Puerto Rico. God/ess forbid you or your family ever go through a catastrophe. God/ess forbid you or you family ever go hungry. God/ess forbid if you do, may others never turn their backs when you most need help. Goddess forbid

People who are calling this fake news are despicable. People in Puerto Rico are desperate and they’re dying. Fuck you @italianguy617

Protest against child labor, New York City, May 1, 1909 (Labor Day). Two young girls proudly wear sashes calling for an end to child labor, referring to the practice as “child slavery.” The signs are written in both English and Hebrew. Jewish immigrants, forced out of Russia and Eastern Europe because of pogroms and anti-Semitic laws, came to New York City in large numbers. Many immigrant Jews worked in the garment industry, a field rife with unfair labor practices. The New York City garment industry, along with the Jewish immigrant population, were centered around Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
