Rest well sista... #nikkigiovanni #blackpoets

My favorite collection of hers. Her writing was so funny, and so sincerely radiant with love. Even the tough love was tender on the inside. #NikkiGiovanni #Ancestor #BlackBookSky #BookSky

She will be missed! #NikkiGiovanni

Here’s a chat btwn #NikkiGiovanni & #JamesBaldwin I’ve watched a few times over the yrs. I love how deeply it centers Blackness. Both express skepticism abt Black political representation & discuss diversity of Black views abt so many topics from movements to masculinity. youtu.be/Pg2t5b0m2d4?...

Excellent interview with my friend @omardahi on Syria on Democracy Now! Definitely worth listening to! www.democracynow.org/2024/12/10/s...

A bloody 24hrs in Sudan. From SAF airstrikes in Kabkabiya (dozens killed; some estimates put death toll at 85) & Khartoum (27 killed) to RSF bombings in Omdurman (at least 40 killed) & Zamzam IDP Camp (at least 8 killed) Civilians remain the primary victims. #KeepEyesOnSudan

Today, we honor the countless lives destroyed in #TigrayGenocide. Even though the world has largely moved on, the crisis in #Tigray ensues & survivors of genocide suffer in silence. There must be justice & accountability for such gross human rights violations, past & present #Justice4Tigray #Justice

Governments have a duty to ensure their people's human rights. Since Nov. 2020, the Ethiopian govt has not only failed to protect Tigrayans' rights but has grossly violated them in the #TigrayGenocide. Tigrayans' right to life continues to be infringed. #HumanRightsDay.

On this #GenocidePreventionDay, we remind the Int’l Community of the #TigrayGenocide, the atrocity crimes that continue in Tigray & the need for action to stop current crimes, recognize the genocide against Tigrayans & seek justice. #GenocidePrevention #HumanRights ✍🏽 omnatigray.org/petition-to-...

It has been over 4 years now since Ethiopia’s PM Abiy Ahmed launched #TigrayGenocide. A silent genocide continues in Tigray. On this solemn occasion, we draw attention to conditions in Tigray & call for the implementation of the Cessation of Hostilities Agreement & #Justice4Tigray.  A🧵👇🏾

As we commemorate the 4-year anniversary of the start of the #TigrayGenocide, we call on the Int’l Comm to recognize the crimes committed against the people of #Tigray as genocide. Add your voice by signing this petition for 🇺🇸, 🇨🇦, 🇪🇺 & 🇬🇧 residents. omnatigray.org/petition-to-...

Ceasefire in Lebanon, finally. Hope this actually lasts and Lebanese can sleep at night without the crippling anxiety and uncertainty over whose building will be bombed next.

‼️Let's not forget the millions of IDPs caught in the middle of the war in #Sudan that started in Apr2023. #KeepEyesOnSudan ‼️Let's not forget Tigrayan #refugees who fled to Sudan in Nov2020 who in Nov2024 are still stuck without being able to return home. #Justice4Tigray ✊❤️

In this research article, foreign involvement in the mining industry in #Tigray is explored. Amid the #TigrayGenocide, the region is susceptible to the ‘resource curse’. Read about the implications of mining in Tigray at the link below 👇🏾 omnatigray.org/mining-in-ti...

Disinformation campaigns about the Tigray Genocide go beyond social media. A recent paper from Leiden University’s African Studies Centre uses bad research and a conspiracy theory to “debunk” genocide, mass rape, forced starvation, and massacres of Tigrayan civilians. 🧵/1

To better comprehend sexual violence with genocidal intent, watch this new @artefr.bsky.social doc, released in time for The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. An estimated 100k Tigrayan women suffered sexual violence at the hands of the Ethiopian & Eritrean armies.

On #16DaysOfActivism, @tdrfund.bsky.social stands in solidarity with the women of Tigray—dedicated to amplifying their voices, advocating for their rights, and fostering their empowerment. Together, we strive for a just and equitable future every day. #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #Tigray #VOTG

Dear @tomfletcherun.bsky.social, women and girls of Tigray were the primary targets of conflict-related sexual violence by Ethiopia🇪🇹 and Eritrea🇪🇷. Many women remain with no services and the UN needs to provide attention to #TigrayGenocide www.arte.tv/fr/videos/12...
