I refuse to normalize the killing of Black youth. Ryan Gainer deserved to live a full life. No amount of trainings can undo the anti-black racist foundations of our police force. Nor are they equipped to address the needs of our community members living with disabilities.

Sudan’s Paramilitary RSF Says It’s Open to Immediate Ceasefire democracynow.org/2024/1/3/headl…
Civil rights leader @RevDrBarber calls for better accommodation for people with disabilities after he was kicked out of a movie theater in North Carolina last week for using a custom chair for his arthritic condition. "It’s quite absurd and tragic," he says.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo produces nearly three-quarters of the world’s cobalt but those who dig up the valuable mineral often work in horrific and dangerous conditions, says Siddharth Kara, author of Cobalt Red. democracynow.org/2023/7/13/coba…
As we welcome in a new year, we must remain laser focused on reducing suffering in the world. From Congo, to Sudan, to Palestine, to right here in America, we must continue to advocate for humanity. We must continue to fight for people we don’t know.
happy to see that @AGNIMagazine is running dispatches from Palestine. you can read them here: agnionline.bu.edu/blog/dispatche…

funny how in fiction we depict monsters as being otherworldly beasts when in reality monsters are men in tanks with colonial aspirations and a racist ideology

Israeli bulldozers are intentionally destroying cemeteries in Gaza and exhuming dead bodies as a result. I don’t even have a word for what kind of mind is behind the intentional desecration of the dead. This is not about your safety. This is about your indoctrinated hatred.

Where is the ideological difference between refusing to ban the sale of assault rifles in the US & refusing to stop the sale of weapons to Israel? It’s a single system producing mass death for children.
