For over 50 years, the Southern Poverty Law Center has fought against injustice, hate & white supremacy. Now, that work has made them a target of this administration. Oxfam America proudly stands with @splcenter.org in the fight for civil rights. We will not be silenced. @oxfamamerica.bsky.social

Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and joy, yet rising criminalization across the U.S. threatens their basic rights. On #TransDayOfVisibility, Oxfam stands in solidarity and remains steadfast in the fight for bodily autonomy, equality, and justice for all. #TheFutureIsEqual

The need for clean water and decent sanitation services are essential for human survival, and are two key ways that you—and Oxfam—can make an enormous difference. By providing clean water, hygiene promotion, and sanitation services we can save countless lives. #WorldWaterDay

Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate. Amid global crises displacing families and deepening hunger, too many are observing this holiday in hardship. May this Eid renew our shared commitment to peace, dignity, and justice for all. #TheFutureIsEqual

Trump’s escalating attacks on democracy and international law are deepening instability. Oxfam is standing firm, protecting rights and defending vulnerable communities. To understand the stakes and why this work needs you, read the full reflection:

This weekend’s escalation in the Middle East is a reckless breach of international law with consequences far beyond the region. The US and Israel’s attacks on Iran undermine the rules‑based order, and the silence of many Western leaders at this moment is deeply alarming.

“You can’t work from the top when you organize.” — Shirley Sherrod Her decades of courage and community leadership continue to shape our fight for economic and racial justice. Proud to uplift her voice this #BlackHistoryMonth.

ICE's recklessness is threatening the security of our communities. It's time to stop the senseless killings. Congress must step in to demand thorough investigations and accountability and to ensure the Trump administration stops attacking our neighbors. thehill.com/homenews/sen...

I joined @forbes.com to talk about the devastating consequences of the Trump admin’s devastating cuts to humanitarian aid. One year later, the stories of impact from our partners and colleagues continue to be harrowing. I hope you’ll give this a watch.

By expanding the Global Gag Rule, the Trump admin is continuing its assault on humanitarian aid. Removing funding from organizations that support gender & diversity will dehumanize people, restricting their rights & access to critical services. This is unacceptable. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

President Trump is expanding his Board of Peace into a pay-to-play council with a global scope, instead of focusing on its core task: rebuilding Gaza so that Palestinians can live in peace, dignity and security. www.oxfamamerica.org/press/presid...

In 2025, billionaire wealth increased 3x faster than over the past 5 years, reaching its highest level in history, $18.3 trillion. Meanwhile, 1 in 4 people don’t regularly have enough to eat & nearly half the world’s population lives in poverty. Read the report: www.oxfamamerica.org/press/billio...

It is all but impossible to understand Palestinians’ experience of living under the indignity & suffering of Israel’s unlawful occupation from afar – which is why I felt grateful to return to the West Bank recently. Please read some reflections from my trip: www.oxfamamerica.org/explore/emer...

We have run out of words to describe the depths of suffering we have witnessed after President Trump took a sledgehammer to U.S. humanitarian assistance and the entire global aid system. One year later we are seeing years of progress unravel, suffering and preventable deaths.

ICE should not be menacing our streets and endangering our neighbors. We stand with Minneapolis today and call on the Trump administration to stop attacking our communities.

I recently spent a week in the occupied Palestinian territory: What I witnessed was urgent, unjust, and demands bold action. 🧵

The new American oligarchy is here. The wealthiest 1% gained 987× more wealth per household than the poorest 20%. Proud of my Oxfam colleagues for exposing this inequality emergency, and calling for an economy that works for the many, not the wealthy few. #TheFutureIsEqual

Reflecting on my recent visit to the DRC, and how vital it is to keep the voices of local partners, communities, and women impacted by the harmful cuts to US foreign assistance at the center of our efforts. It’s up to us to bring our common humanity and support to people in need.

I welcome the news of a ceasefire in Gaza, offering a moment of hope and peace after so much loss. True peace cannot succeed without justice and accountability at its core for all Palestinians and Israelis, ending the cycle of violence. Read more: www.oxfamamerica.org/press/oxfam-...

Two years. On October 7, 2023, Hamas and other armed groups carried out devastating attacks in Israel. We still mourn those lost that day and the 48 hostages who remain in captivity. But Israel’s response has created one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time.

At #ClimateWeekNYC, I opened the “Taxation for Fair Climate Financing” panel organized with @clubdemadrid.bsky.social & @globalsolidaritylevies.org. It featured a call from 38 former heads of state for permanent polluter profit taxes.

Today, as they meet, President Trump must act now to compel Prime Minister Netanyahu to change course: to uphold international law, ensure accountability, end impunity and secure a permanent ceasefire.

In his #UNGA80 speech, President Trump denied the climate crisis, bragged about ending wars & economic woes that his policies exacerbate & undermined the UN. Meanwhile, conflicts escalate & climate and inequality impacts grow. Shameful. Oxfam's statement: www.oxfamamerica.org/press/oxfam-...

Proud to stand together with so many leaders from around the world at @clintonglobal.bsky.social's 2025 Annual Meeting and collaborate with the Humanitarian Response Working Group on how to make humanitarian efforts more adaptable, collaborative & efficient. #cgi2025 clintonglobal.org/2025

Join me at #DevexImpactHouse on the sidelines of #UNGA80 in NYC. I'll be talking with @annagawel.bsky.social, Managing Editor at @devex.com, about how aid organizations are adapting in the "new landscape of aid." See you there! pages.devex.com/devex-at-ung...

Political violence should have no place in America. Reprehensible acts of violence have harmed people of every political persuasion, undermining our democracy and safety.

This year at #UNGA80, I’ll be speaking out to defend civic space and those who risk everything for justice. We must act urgently on Gaza, feminist priorities, climate, & humanitarian access to safeguard our shared future. #HandsOffOurSpaces #TheFutureIsEqual

Famine is knocking on the door in Gaza and elsewhere. Harmful U.S. aid cuts & poor policy choices are worsening hunger worldwide. Hear my reflections in this clip & the full interview here: www.abetterworldcommunity.com/post/oxfam-a...

Let me be clear: the U.S. cuts to lifesaving aid are not just a funding issue — this is a moral failure. In my op-ed, I share stories from the DRC where women are paying the highest price for the Trump admin’s reckless cuts to humanitarian assistance.

Today on World Humanitarian Day, we honor Oxfam’s 8,500 staff and partners who put their lives on the line to protect human dignity. In the face of crisis, they reached over 14 million people this past year, proof that solidarity saves lives. #TheFutureIsEqual

This plan would be catastrophic for the up to one million people estimated to still be in Gaza City. The Trump admin cannot allow this to go forward, as it will ensure an entirely new level of displacement, devastation, and death for Palestinians in Gaza. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

I have just returned from the DRC, where US aid cuts have left families without the vital resources needed to survive. The Trump admin’s rescissions package is cruel and dangerous. Lives are on the line. Humanitarian aid should never be up for debate.

Join me for this timely conversation on such an urgent issue:

The richest 1% gained $33.9 trillion since 2015. That’s enough to end global poverty 22 times over. Meanwhile, aid is being slashed and 3.7B people remain in poverty. It’s time to tax the super-rich, reject failed finance models, and put public power at the center.

Since Trump left the region w/out a deal, Israel has escalated its deadly offensive across Gaza & blocking all but a trickle of aid. Remaining hostages & unlawfully detained prisoners are still not released. The US must push for more than this as 2 million are on the brink of famine. 1/2

President Trump’s proposed budget is a cruel blow to people in crisis—gutting aid, slashing safety nets, and paving the way for more handouts for billionaires. Congress must reject these cuts and protect programs that save lives and support families at home and abroad.

Oxfam’s latest analysis lays bare the devastating impact of the Trump administration’s second-term agenda—policies that deepen inequality at home and undermine lives around the world. As billionaires profit, working people and vulnerable communities are paying the price.

Thank you, Brittany Lewis, for having me on the @forbes.com platform to discuss the harmful and horrific consequences of the Trump Administration's choice to cut funding to USAID.

Deeply humbled to have been in Pope Francis’s presence in January. His loss is profound. He was a champion for the poor, justice, and our shared humanity. May we honor his legacy by continuing to care for the world’s most marginalized.

Trump’s weaponization of tariffs is effectively an attack on the global working class that would turbocharge inequality. This decision risks pushing up costs for struggling families in the U.S. and worldwide, and triggering economic downturns globally. apnews.com/article/trum...

Met Cornelius Blanding & Stephanie D. Banks of the Federation of Southern Co-ops, an org empowering Black farmers. Sadly, the Trump admin is hampering the org's work to break down systemic barriers to land, food & wealth. Grateful to fight for economic justice w/ these leaders. #TheFutureIsEqual

The U.S. has long led in disaster response, but with USAID gutted, its ability to aid crises like Myanmar is severely weakened. Lives depend on speed, resources & collaboration. The admin must act now—millions face disease, hunger & more. The U.S. must not abandon its legacy.

Trans rights are human rights. Oxfam believes that everyone, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation, deserves to live with dignity, free from discrimination, exclusion, violence, and persecution. The trans community deserves to be seen and celebrated today and every day🏳️‍⚧️

We’re nearing the end of #WomensHistoryMonth but the light shines on. We continue to draw hope from the collective power of women & girls around the world who continue to make their voices heard and lift one another up whether at home, in their neighborhoods, courtrooms, governments, or boardrooms.

To mark #EqualPayDay, I’d like to uplift the Georgia chapter of @9to5org.bsky.social! Honored to meet and discuss their work advancing worker justice, paid leave, utility justice & more last week. Excited to strengthen partnerships & keep fighting for economic & racial justice together!

This ruling is a welcome reprieve for agency staffers, but more is needed to stop the administration's illegal dismantling of an independent agency. We need all funding and staff fully reinstated immediately so the vital life-saving work can continue.

Injustice is rising—but so is our collective power. On #IWD2025, we honor the fight for gender justice and remember: hope is not passive. It drives us to stand up, speak out, and demand better. Together, we turn hope into action—and action into lasting change.

Once again: the Trump administration is not above the law. It must abide by SCOTUS’s ruling and immediately reinstate aid funding. Millions of lives are on the line. www.npr.org/2025/03/05/n...

The Trump admin is not above the law. Judge Ali’s ruling rejects its false claims that ‘humanitarian waivers’ are enough. Millions of lives are at risk—the admin must fully reinstate USAID funding & staff now and comply with the court’s order.

Honored to speak on the vital link between humanitarian relief, equity, and justice at @wpiedu.bsky.social’s Global School Forum. Grateful to join the Dean of the Global School, Mimi Sheller, to share my experience. Inspired to commune with bright minds ready to take on global challenges!
