Yes, young immigrant/ethnic women breaking generational trauma barriers and loving themselves is amazing but what's more amazing is when our moms do it. Ever see an older immigrant woman who cuts off her family, puts herself first, & stops caring what people will say? Magnifique!

For a very long time, Serb nationalists have attempted to either deny or minimise the Bosnian genocide have done so by saying these were all "military aged men" or were actually part of the Bosnian army. It's not true but even if it was, it doesn't make it any less of a genocide.

You cannot organise, reason or work with the police. The evidence is there, the murders and violence at the hand of the police are there (and always have been). The only way is to abolish the police. There's no other option.

You can't organise with the police. It's futile. Because the police are always going to protect the institutions we are trying to bring down. If you need to get permission from the police to protest and think they will protect you, you’re either intellectually challenged or ops.

My body and soul are not able to process the fact that this world keeps moving while all of this happens right before our eyes. May Gods protect them all and may the colonisers and their enablers suffer endlessly.

“the bombing is so intense it’s difficult to pull out whole bodies” this should never happen nevermind it being something that’s happening over and over for seven months may God protect civil defence and their helpers from any more trauma and heartbreak 🤍

Zadie Smith argues that protest slogans are “weapons of mass destruction” in a new pretentious and navel-gazing article and she does it while a literal genocide ravages Gaza. I am sick of ignorant and tone-deaf writers who feel like they can lecture us from their lavish homes.

For the love of all that's holy, stop buying into the idea that she's doing this because she cares. She doesn't and is a fascist through and through, trying to shift the blame away from Italy and its inhumane treatment of migrants to another country and its inhumane practices.

Germany is germaning. Utterly shameful and disgusting behaviour, but so on-brand for a country that constantly embarrasses itself on a global level, to the point of mobilising 2000 police officers for a conference to avoid, ever so slightly, upsetting Israel.
