Chagossians

I got one last link in the comments to my Mini Carnival of Diasporas. It involves the native population of Diego Garcia, forcibly expelled from their homeland by the British government at the request of the US. Rich Hindes at The Disillusioned Kid has a good post on this victim diaspora. The continued refusal of the British and US governments to allow the Chagossians to return home is quite shameful. The right to a homeland is a human right.
