"I can see my homeland when I gaze upon the distant hills from the top of a hill where I live in the refugee camp. I want to return to my home. Home is where I can breathe, and I can feel the smell of my country. You cannot call this a life; it's just surviving." The Daily Star

If you care about what’s going on in my country Ukraine you should also care about what’s going on in Western #Tigray.

BREAKING: Chicago's Cook County just advanced a resolution to investigate ICE's use of data brokers (like LexisNexis & Thomson Reuters) to skirt sanctuary city laws. Data brokers amass billions of data points, packaging & selling this data to ICE. cook-county.legistar.com/LegislationDet…

Not to be forgotten

Today on Eastern Orthodox Easter, Palestinian Christians across Palestine are being prevented from celebrating freely. Israeli regime police are segregating crowds, preventing access to churches, beating worshippers… Standard coloniser tactics from a standard colonial regime.

Colorado, which affirms the right to abortion in state law, is going to play a big role moving forward. People already travel here for abortions and that out-of-state demand is certain to pick up as other states’ trigger laws go into effect.

Only 30% of Americans support overturning Roe, with 69% opposed, according to the most recent polling. Get used to it: everything we know about the trajectory of American democracy suggests that minoritarianism will become the norm.

So... nothing about why he didn't codify Roe when he had a supermajority?

"I reject the premise of the question. As I said it's the responsibility of the Israeli regime to bring about peace & stability. And how can it do that? Quite simply by ending its occupation, its apartheid, & its colonization of the Palestinian people" - Dr. Yara Hawari د. يارا هواري in BBC News (World)

1/ Two years since the #Burmese military's attempted coup in #Myanmar & after its decades of atrocities against ethnic minorities, all the people across the country are now united more than ever in strong resistance for our federally democratic future. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

It's funny that the Americans always claim to meet with Palestinian "civil society leaders". When the reality is that the real civil society leaders refuse to meet with them because of decades of impunity & billions of dollars of military aid they provide for the Israeli regime.
