🥚 Watched #AngelsEgg in the theatre and didn’t really like it.

🌧️ I loved the visuals though. It felt like I was watching a painting come to life.

I went to the @metmuseum.org & asked to be directed to the Assyrian art.

❌ The first worker sent me to the Islamic art section.

❌ The second told me no Assyrian art was on display due to construction, which was untrue.

I found Mesopotamian art on my own.

The ancestors called me.

✨ Why is the year 6775? The first temple to the god Ashur, who Assyrians are named after, is said to have been erected in 4750 B.C. Take 4750+2025 and you get the current year, 6775!

💐 Happy Assyrian New Year 6775!

🌷 Photos are from my first trip to Assyria in 2022. While the New Year parade in northern Iraq this year was met with hatred& violence, I know Assyrians will remain on their Indigenous lands for 6,775 years to come! You cannot break us.

Me when I have to tell people for the 900th time to stop using the archaic umbrella term “Arab World.”

⚔️ “Two Assyrian Sphinxes guard the south entrance of the Liberty Memorial. ‘Memory’ faces east toward the battlefields of France, shielding its eyes from the horrors of war. ‘Future’ faces west, shielding its eyes from an unknown future.”—Memorial website

✅ Have you visited? 📸: Memorial Facebook

💡 Did you know that the National WWI Museum and Memorial in Kansas City, Missouri has two Assyrian sphinxes on site?

✨ The Memorial was first designed in the 1920s with an Egyptian architecture revival in mind.

New media bias chart recently dropped via Ad Fontes Media.

"The head of a Lamassu statue, an #Assyrian deity often depicted as a winged-bull with a human head, lies in the archaeological site of #Nimrud, south of #Mosul, on January 3, 2025."

How disheartening to see the dismal state of #Iraq's antiquities.

Merry Christmas ❤️

Saint Odisho Monastery in northern #Iraq is pictured.

The monastery was previously bombed and destroyed by both Saddam Hussein and Kurdish forces.

The #Assyrian community in the diaspora raised funds multiple times for its reconstruction and repairs.
