On Heroes' Day, Check the Label

Are your clothes dripping Tamil blood?

by Senthuri Thayamohan

Starting on Heroes Day, say no to all products made in Sri Lanka. Say no to Sinhala companies sending their profits to the Sri Lankan government. Say no to the Sri Lankan government. Say no to the slaughter of Tamils.

They are innocuously peppered throughout your house: jeans thrown over your chair, sweatshirts piled on the couch, t-shirts in the laundry. And they are covertly funding the bombings of our Tamil brethren in Northeast Sri Lanka?

Even as our hearts ache and our minds rebel reading the horror stories on TamilNet, we don't realize the way we contribute to the bloodshed.

But the sad reality is that we are funding Sri Lanka's war against our own people when we purchase goods made in Sri Lanka.

One quarter of Sri Lanka's exports are textiles, the second largest industry behind its food and drink business (booming due to its high demand Ceylon teas). Thus, textiles and products for consumption are the most significant components of Sri Lanka's economy, fuelling the Sri Lankan state and thereby fuelling the government's war against the Tamil people.

The war against the Tamil Tigers has been an ugly one, well-documented by photos from Pesalai, Mavilaru, Vangalai, Allaipitty, Vaharai. Even in so-called peacetime, schools were bombed and hospitals shelled. And we, as members of the Tamil diaspora, have felt helpless in front of our computers, as we read about the latest massacres and saw the bodies pile up.
