This year at #UNGA80, I’ll be speaking out to defend civic space and those who risk everything for justice.

We must act urgently on Gaza, feminist priorities, climate, & humanitarian access to safeguard our shared future. #HandsOffOurSpaces #TheFutureIsEqual

Famine is knocking on the door in Gaza and elsewhere. Harmful U.S. aid cuts & poor policy choices are worsening hunger worldwide.

President Trump’s proposed budget is a cruel blow to people in crisis—gutting aid, slashing safety nets, and paving the way for more handouts for billionaires.

Congress must reject these cuts and protect programs that save lives and support families at home and abroad.

Deeply humbled to have been in Pope Francis’s presence in January.

His loss is profound. He was a champion for the poor, justice, and our shared humanity.

May we honor his legacy by continuing to care for the world’s most marginalized.

Met Cornelius Blanding & Stephanie D. Banks of the Federation of Southern Co-ops, an org empowering Black farmers.

Sadly, the Trump admin is hampering the org's work to break down systemic barriers to land, food & wealth.

Grateful to fight for economic justice w/ these leaders. #TheFutureIsEqual

To mark #EqualPayDay, I’d like to uplift the Georgia chapter of @9to5org.bsky.social!

Excited to strengthen partnerships & keep fighting for economic & racial justice together!

Honored to speak on the vital link between humanitarian relief, equity, and justice at @wpiedu.bsky.social’s Global School Forum. Grateful to join the Dean of the Global School, Mimi Sheller, to share my experience.

Inspired to commune with bright minds ready to take on global challenges!

The Trump administration’s shutdown of USAID is cruel and dangerous and puts millions of lives at risk.

It is critical that we do everything in our power to fight for USAID and its lifesaving work - before it's too late.

Honored to meet His Holiness Pope Francis, a true advocate for the world’s most vulnerable, with my Steering Committee for Humanitarian Response colleagues.

Thank you, @caritasintbe.bsky.social for hosting us as we discuss pressing humanitarian priorities.

Together, we fight inequality.
