This little girl was too young to give us her name. She lives in a barrio of displaced people in Medellin. Displacement within Colombia occurs in incredible numbers, mostly through the actions of paramilitary groups funded by multinational corporations and the fascist U.S.-supported Uribe government (among Bush’s last acts and Secretary of State Clinton’s first were declarations of support for Uribe). Women in these communities are commonly raped by paramilitary and others with impunity.
