WordPress help?

I can’t update the College Racism Roundup because WordPress stopped automatically putting in breaks and every time I preview, it’s a giant mishmash of text. … 

For example, I just broke two lines  after the ellipsis, and I’m pretty sure it won’t show up. I have to put html breaks in everything.

 

Like that. I also have the option for “Visual” or “Code” on my new post screen and I really hate it, because I just use code but it defaults to visual and goes all screwy when I switch.

How do I make it work again? It works fine if I update from a computer running an earlier version of Mac OS X, but since I got Leopard, Safari got all weird and I don’t get it anymore, and I have, like, three things to add to the CRR but I really don’t want to have to go in and redo the whole thing in decent html.

Ending human trafficking

Bruce Reyes-Chow recently posted a link to the anti-slavery Web site Not For Sale.

When I first saw his entry, I was really depressed. Slavery was supposed to have ended in the U.S. 140 years ago (although in actuality, it continued afterwards on plantations and other properties through blackmail, false debts, and other underhanded means, and while it has morphed over time, it continues through to today, yes, here in the U.S.).

Let me repeat that. This isn’t just a problem in so-called “Third World” countries. It happens here in the United States as well. [Source]

So I figured I’d add a few more links to Bruce’s.
- HumanTrafficking.org has resources against trafficking all over the world. Their U.S. section has a hotline to report trafficking or slavery in the U.S.
- Business Travellers Against Human Trafficking is a good counterpoint to that horrific international sex guide site.
- GABNet’s Purple Rose Campaign works to end the trafficking of Filipino women and children.
- Human Rights Watch has the Campaign Against the Trafficking of Women and Girls.

Anybody have any more? Let’s get a list going, because there should not even be a need for abolitionists in 2007.
