People often ask what it's like behind the scenes at the world's top spy tech trade fair, ISS World. Turns out it's like this bsky.app/profile/ligh...

Satellite imagery analysis corroborates whistleblowers' testimony exposing widespread greenwashing across the Philippines’ national reforestation program. Davao Today, @thibico.bsky.social and Lighthouse prove instead of restoring forests, it’s often fueling deforestation. 🧵

#NoOtherLand Palaistinian co-director Hamdan Ballal was attacked and injured by a group of Israeli settlers, then abducted by IDF from the ambulance he'scalled to get medical treatment. Co-director Yuval Abraham says there has been no sign of Hamdan since. Another reminder of what #apartheid is.

Μετά από πολλά χρόνια βλέπω ξανά στα social media feed μου οδηγίες και νομικές συμβουλές για εργαζόμενους που θέλουν να απεργήσουν την Παρασκευή. Άλλο ένα δείγμα πως θα έχουμε τεράστια συμμετοχή και στην απεργία, πέρα από τις διαδηλώσεις.

Με αγάπη για την #Παλαιστίνη ❤️‍🔥 For the Love of #Palestine Αγάπη είναι αντίσταση, αφοσίωση, αγώνας για ελευθερία. Ένα 3ήμερο στο Τριανόν γεμάτο ταινίες, ιστορίες, εξαιρετικούς καλεσμένους από την ομάδα του Athens Palestine Film Festival. 🔻 13-15 Φεβρουαρίου – Τρεις μέρες θαρραλέου κινηματογράφου

The #shipwreck near #Gavdos #Crete #Greece last Saturday 14/12 is becoming one of the most tragic and deadly ones. The death toll has risen to 7, with 36 people still missing (!), according to the Deputy Mayor of Chania. Search efforts continue. www.zarpanews.gr/nayagio-sti-...

Over a year, we collected & analyzed data on drowning deaths along Texas' stretch of the US/Mexico border on the Rio Grande Yesterday our collaborative investigation went out on the front covers of @washingtonpost.com + @eluniversalmx.bsky.social @lhreports.bsky.social

Lighthouse Reports, in partnership with The Washington Post & El Universal, spent a year collecting data from every Texas county & Mexican state along the Rio Grande. We found at least 1,107 people drowned crossing the river from 2017 to 2023, a figure significantly higher than previously reported.

Γιόρτασα με τον Χιλιανό πρόσφυγα φίλο μου τη μέρα που πέθανε ο Πινοτσέτ. Δεν θα ξεχάσω το χαμόγελό του. Σήμερα γιορτάζω με τον Σύρο φίλο μου την κατάρρευση του Άσαντ. Και σκέφτομαι τους Σύρους πρόσφυγες που έχω συναντήσει, που μου μίλησαν για τα τραύματα και την πατρίδα τους. Θα χαμογελάνε σήμερα.

Thinking today of Syrian friends & so many other amazing Syrians met over the last decade on the reporting trail. Hard to comprehend the scale of damage wrought by the despicable and belatedly deposed Assads

New from me on what the rage and glee on public display after the killing of a healthcare CEO portends. I suspect the corporate world will respond with more security and retreating even more into their gated lives. They would be advised to read up on history. 🎁🔗 www.nytimes.com/2024/12/06/o...

"Why does playing by the rules render someone innocent, even when the rules produce a stream of death and devastation?" @jphillll.bsky.social raises some valid points here: www.jphilll.com/p/whats-a-li...

Same question, different government.

Serious impact in Sweden where the welfare agency has been called before parliament to answer questions over discriminatory algorithms used to profile benefits recipients www.svd.se/a/63VOxo/eft...

"Hey Anders", I hope you're still keeping a diary. Someone has to keep a record of the publications 🤣

I know you already know, but tbh I just wanted to share this in my feed www.icc-cpi.int/news/situati...

I read about the umpteenth overblown research results on chatbots being better than doctors (just irresponsible from publications like the NYT) This very useful starter pack came my way right after, so there’s that at least.

This is happening now in Beirut. X, as horrific as it got, is a loudspeaker for the silenced. I am still there because of it. We must get intentional about circulating the horrors in Palestine, Lebanon, Sudan if we intend to make this the just alternative.

November 17th is the day we commemorate the 1973 uni students' uprising against the 1967 dictatorship (lasted 7 years till 1974) with a huge demonstration in Athens. Today I'm in Barcelona (for work) and won't be able to join, still there's an antifascist legacy here that makes me feel right at home

Πολύ χρήσιμο για τους νέους χρήστες 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Ταξιδεύω για δουλειά. Στο περιοδικό της Aegean βλέπω φωτογράφιση μόδας στα Τζουμέρκα. Απελπίζομαι. Η απληστία σας θα διαλύσει κι αυτό το οικοσύστημα, αχόρταγοι άνθρωποι. ❄️Τουλάχιστον χιόνισε στις κορυφές 🏔️

Last lineup of #Athens #Palestine Film Festival starts tonight. An unexpected and moving experience for me: so many powerful films and documentaries these three weekends of the festival, all sold out. Here’s to a future when free Palestinians will create art without the dark shadow of the genocide.

Daily life in Kinshasa's tallest residential tower, the "Presidential Galeries", built in the 1970s by Mobutu with luxurious marble floors and escalators. My film will be screened at the beautiful Dakar biennale on Nov 30.

Too many starter packs (♥️), too little time.
