I was recently informed that legal action has been initiated against me in the EU for my reporting on the genocide in Gaza and Palestine.

All major social media platforms are deliberately limiting the visibility of my work.

Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

I remember reading this quote in the early 2000s and it seared itself into the back of my skull.
Still one of the bleakest quotes I have ever read, from one of George W Bush’s senior advisers.

I'm in the Niger Delta and I just watched a man who had to abandon his home because his family members were dying one after the other from diseases caused by oil pollution pull crude oil from the water well outside his old house.

It's very sad that mostly or only white people have been stabbed in the uk; but the same thing happened in the US.

Violence against Black People and POC was ignored by the media and white people generally until it started to impact white people.

The number of protests she blessed with these words, the number of meetings we closed or opened with this prayer!! I am so grateful for her. Rest in power Assata Shakur. You lived and you died free.
“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.
We must love each other and support each other.
We have nothing to lose but our chains.”

Assata Shakur, rest in power.
