In 2026, I cannot believe we are being asked to respond to the suggestion that the descendants of the enslaved should pay for the machinery that oppressed them.
The Caribbean does not owe Britain for slavery, for colonial extraction, or for laws that treated African people as chattel. We are not asking for charity. We are asking for justice, and history itself has already told the truth.
Those who wish to speak on this matter should first take the time to read enough history to understand it. The Caribbean will not be used as a prop for anyone’s politics. We know who we are, we know what was done, and we will continue to speak for repair with clarity and dignity.
very tired of them treating russian athletes like they’re war criminals because of their government when they don’t do the same to american or israeli athletes
Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya ran one of Gaza's last hospitals. He refused to leave his patients even after Israel killed his own son in a drone strike.
Israel kidnapped him for it. 18 months in detention, tortured and beaten, for the crime of running a hospital.
He must be released.
🚨 UPDATE | Israel’s Supreme Court has ordered the state to respond by Tuesday, July 7, to a petition seeking the release of 14 Palestinian doctors from Gaza held without charge, and to specifically address the condition of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, following new allegations that he faces an immediate risk to his life.
The petition was filed by Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI) on April 30, but the state has repeatedly received court-approved extensions to respond. After the state sought another delay, PHRI objected, citing new information from Dr. Abu Safiya’s lawyer, Nasser Odeh, who said his client had been subjected to repeated severe beatings, suffered visible injuries, and had deteriorated to the point that he was difficult to recognize.
PHRI has also asked a Supreme Court justice to urgently visit Dr. Abu Safiya in prison and said it will seek an independent cardiologist’s examination and additional lawyer visits amid growing concerns over his health.
I sometimes think about how horrifying it would be to be captured alive by the IDF. You know they're going to torture you. You know they're going to rape you. If you're a devout Muslim, killing yourself is off the table. You just have to sit there knowing it's going to happen.
BREAKING (bones)
Why does "Bring Them Home" exist only for some hostages?
Because in Apartheid Israel, where only Jewish lives matter, brutalising the Palestinians isn't an anomaly - it is the system. And the silence around it is the exact measure of our collective hypocrisy.
I am gravely concerned by reports of a severe deterioration in the condition of Dr. Abu Safiyah.
We reiterate our demands for his release, along with all other doctors being held without charge.
1000s of people who engaged in civil disobedience and protests to end the Gaza genocide have been imprisoned, expelled, fired, deported, had their lives ruined meanwhile all the backers of genocide under Biden have cushy jobs at CAP, Harvard, CNN, Vox, etc https://t.co/rczmVcrtjj
