Stop #AmharaGenocide Rally
11.10.24
Saint Paul, Minnesota
So grateful for all the organizers, both at the global level and locally at Minnesota for coming together and facilitating for advocates to become a voice for the victims of #AmharaGenocide.
Great to learn about everyone's conviction to continue the advocacy effort at the State until the crime is stopped and justice is served.
An Ethiopian Orthodox priest, who had served the church for over 40 years, was brutally murdered in Mojo, in the Oromia region of Ethiopia, along with his spouse and three children. Such sad news is common under the Abiy Ahmed regime in Ethiopia since 2018.

Amhara are getting ethnically cleansed, Afar are being marginalized and abandoned, journalists are being harassed and arrested... 🤦♂️
This man is so clueless I am embarrassed to have him represent my country in 🇪🇹.
Honoured to have had @MFAEthiopia H.E. State Minister Birtukan with us yesterday to mark #NDTR2024 and our national day.
Rich reflections from her time in 🇨🇦, including how 🇨🇦’s approach to #Reconciliation could inform 🇪🇹’s Transitional Justice and National Dialogue processes.

The government of Abiy Ahmed, Ethiopia’s prime minister, does not want to talk about kidnapping. It would rather discuss its efforts to kickstart a debt-laden economy.
But lawlessness in the country is spreading econ.st/4d5g78F 👇
🇪🇹DEATH TOLL IN ETHIOPIAN LANDSLIDES RISES TO 157
The death toll from 2 landslides in southern Ethiopia has risen sharply, and officials expect the number to increase further.
The first landslide buried people in the Gofa zone in the Southern Ethiopia regional state; then, a second one engulfed others who had gathered to help.
National Disaster Response Agency:
“Searching is still going on, and there are bodies that are yet to be recovered.
The area is very challenging.
We have so far recovered 157 bodies from two villages.
We believe the number will increase.”

Yesterday, the Ethiopian community mourned the loss of a valued ally. Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) was a stalwart advocate for human rights, courageously speaking out against violations by the Ethiopian government. Her impact spanned local, national, and international arenas, earning global recognition for her unwavering fights for justice, democracy and human rights, particularly for women and children. Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family and the Ethiopian community in Texas.
