Voices of Protest

"How many of you are there?" people often ask SEAD. That's hard to say because SEAD is a grass-root movement and doesn't have members. What we do have is support from people all over the world. People that encourage us, advice us, and help us in many ways to do what we're doing.

We are also the voice of many people in Statia who can't speak out in public because repercussions would be severe.

SEAD meets every Saturday night at the Congo Preserve in Statia where all people are welcome to join the discussion or just listen.

In the St. Maarten newspaper The Daily Herald a lot of Statia people voice their opinion on the NuStar's expansion plans in a letter to the editor.








Statia News is another local news source where people can express their opinion or read about others.If you want to send in your contribution, mail to info@statianews.com or ask if you can be added to their mailing list.

  1. I hope the Dutch are reading this site. Well put. I am [symbolic] a cast away after storm LUIS and decided to stay on Sint Maarten. I observe with weary eyes what happens in the, our, world. Neo colonialism here like in North Africa, the USA under tremendous pressure, free energy still blocked by dirty oil, we are in for crazy times.
