The world needs to understand that Congo is going through a silent genocide, Millions have been killed, millions have been displaced and millions are starving. People now live in tents in open field camps meanwhile some are now living in bushes and thick forest.

@EGYPTAIR hi, I’ve been trying to get in contact with the USA office for the past 48 hours and no response. All phone numbers listed on your site do not work. As a frequent flyer and 3 year star alliance gold member (@united platinum) I’ve never experienced such customer service
It’s the “and their heirs” for me. Sit with that for a second. How easily it’s acknowledged.
This is why reparations for African Americans is such a litmus test for me.
Khutbah by Imam Hassan Sharif two weeks ago before his murder.
May his memory be a blessing and reminder of our role as Muslims to stand unwaveringly in our faith. Our time here is too short to be more loyal to our institutions and wealth than to our faith and people.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon.
Imam Hassan Sharif, a beloved Imam of the Newark community, was shot and killed outside of his masjid. We ask Allah SWT to grant him Al-Firdaws and to grant his family patience. May Allah protect our communities and imams.
My father and former Harvard Hillel director, Bernie Steinberg, just wrote an op-ed on "the cynical weaponization of antisemitism by powerful forces who seek to intimidate and ultimately silence legitimate criticism of Israel"

The Christian community in Gaza is facing extinction, their population is somewhere around 800 people. Like all other residents of Gaza, the majority of them have been killed or displaced. Any Christian who supports israel or pretends to "remain neutral" has blood on their hands.
My hero @WaelDahdouh. If he wasn’t Palestinian, he’d be the most famous face in the world decorating the covers of every magazine as person of the year. A man who has almost lost his life multiple times, yet never lost the will to keep covering the crimes against his people. When Israel bombed his wife and kids whom he loved so dearly, he persisted. When they shot him and killed his cameraman yesterday, he still cried out to the paramedics to go to those who had more severe injuries. And he continued to report even from his hospital bed. A symbol of courage. A symbol of hope. A symbol of faith. I love you my brother Wael. May Allah preserve you for us, and unite you with your loved ones once again in paradise. Ameen
My mother texting with my sister, describing a horrific situation at the Holy Family Catholic Church in Gaza. israeli tanks have surrounded the church, and snipers have taken position around it, shooting at the oldest Christian community in the world.
As a Jew in America, I resent the implication that Jews in America are unsafe and that they must rely upon a foreign government, rather than their own, to make them safe.
It's a mistake for the Biden admin to bypass Congress to approve the sale of tank ammo for Israel amid unacceptable civilian harm. Weapons transfers demand public scrutiny and thorough review. U.S. military aid should be contingent on upholding our values and international law.
The campaign to depose the presidents of Penn, Harvard + MIT is a campaign to restrict pro-Palestinian speech on campus. If you support it, please have the decency never to sermonize about free speech, academic freedom or cancel culture again.
My friend’s mom in Gaza eats a piece of bread and a hot pepper. That’s her meal of the day. She hasn’t been able to find flour and so her family has gone without eating for a few days until someone found a bag for them. My other friend’s sister hasn’t drank any water in two days.
