Africans are among the fastest-growing groups in America: they now make up almost half of all black immigrants. They are often perceived—and treated—differently
Immigrants are narrowing the black-white wage gap in America
Their success is changing what it means to be African-American

This genocide belongs to Britain, too.

The government’s legacy will be its complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.

We will never give up until there is justice, peace and freedom for the Palestinian people. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Every year, 10M hectares of forests are lost—fueling climate change & destroying biodiversity.

Protecting these precious ecosystems could slash emissions by 4 gigatonnes annually.

We don't have to live like this.
Back to school should never mean back to school shootings. This is the devastating reality of America’s gun violence crisis—and it will not end until lawmakers take meaningful action.

Text READY to 644-33 to join us in demanding they do just that.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Around the world, the laws of war are being broken and the system for upholding them is not working. Yet that is no excuse for what Israel is doing in Gaza

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal — and we as a nation are directly implicated in the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

In response, the United States must stop all military assistance to Israel.

There's no moral clarity in wreaking vengeance on innocent people.

meal that isn't enough to sustain a whole family for 24
hours.many aren't even able to get that meal due to overcrowding. Where is humanity?

This is a man-made disaster.

Enough is enough. The United Nations must be allowed to deliver aid of all types at scale to families in Gaza, wherever they are.

One reason it’s so hard to explain these problems to people who are not academics, again, is bc our university leaders have been <totally absent> from the public square. They haven’t even bothered to try & communicate, loudly, publicly, & collectively, the stakes to voters. It’s maddening.
