This week marks the 70th anniversary of the historic anti-colonial 1955 Bandung Conference, when 29 nations from Asia and Africa gathered in Indonesia.

“They all gathered together because they understood their unity was very important,” says @vijayprashad.bsky.social.

Earth Day🌍views from my sweet little home! I love the flowers (I think they are tulips), the grass, the grape hyacintha and dandelions growing wild, the maple trees, my makeshift 1st attempt at a garden on the hill. Home is such a gift and I hope to treat all of the spaces offering me home as such!

Stevens accepted 5.4 million in campaign contributions from pro-Israel donors.

With those funds, in 2022, she beat Andy Levin, a Jewish, Bernie-backed progressive candidate in the 11th congressional district primaries.

She isn't for the people!

love this for us
Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.
