Protesters in Thailand gather human blood and store it in large bottles, to pour on the ground in front of the prime minister's residence. (Photo: Somchai Poomlard)
We get analysis on Thailand’s blood protests where supporters Thaksin Shinawatra poured buckets of their own blood on the gates of Government House. Plus, a Honduran radio host shares his views on democracy in his country since the military coup. And, while the music world is consumed by SXSW, a smaller festival south of the border aims to lure fans from Austin. We feature artists from the MtyMx Festival in Monterrey, Mexico.
