Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

@_AfricanUnion @UN it's time to show your usefulness to the people of Cameroon. Should Biya rule continue in Cameroon despite the people not voting for him, then a humanitarian catastrophic will happen. world saw how we were k illed #AnglophoneCrisis #StopBiya #StandUpCameroon

The only question to ask yourself in this moment is "How am I standing for Cameroon?"

Action 1: UP. In Black. Today and tomorrow.

Building strength and courage for Action 2.

Until we #FreeCameroon.

This African countries group chat was very spicy.

Even the presidents mentioned laughed as they watched it

Elon Musk didn't have any issue with USAID when it gave millions of dollars to his company Starlink.

But now it's a "criminal organization?"

"The International Criminal Court is the legacy of the Nuremberg Trials, to never allow war crimes and crimes against humanity go unpunished. The ICC role is more crucial than ever."

WHAT'S HAPPENING IN CONGO IS A PROXY WAR!

In this clip, Congolese-British presenter, singer and instrumentalist Priscilla Toko uses an illustration by @mkadima01 (on Instagram) to drive home that the war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is a three-decade-long, foreign-instigated proxy war for minerals, not simply internal strife.

Moreover, Western states continue to support the DRC’s neighbour, Rwanda, despite overwhelming evidence that it has armed and trained the M23 militia that terrorises Congo. The result is that M23's attacks have 500,000 people displaced just in January, with over 7 million people internally displaced in three decades and approximately 6 million k*lled between 1998 and 2010.

Over 60 per cent of the world's cobalt comes from DRC's copper belt, yet the country remains one of the world's poorest, with over 73 per cent of Congolese people living on less than $2.15 a day.

Malaysian 🇲🇾 PM Anwar bin Ibrahim spoke for humanity

“Israel 🇮🇱 no longer belongs in a community of civilised nations. Barbarism demands decisive action..embargo, suspension & even expulsion [from UN]”

Expel Israel 🇮🇱 from the UN

Recognise Palestine 🇵🇸

[Rep. Ilhan Omar @Ilhan]

Elon Musk does not have the power to dismantle USAID.

The idea that a billionaire can wake up one day and decide to end life-saving international aid programs is undemocratic and outright dangerous.

This is the response to Trump’s tariffs I’ve been waiting for from Canada 🔥

"The threat comes, of course, from the president of the United States—a convicted felon and known predator." - Charlie Angus, Canadian MP

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Authoritarianism is intimidating media, curtailing dissent & undermining our 1st Amendment.

Trump has sued ABC, CBS, Meta and the Des Moines Register for comments that offended him. His FCC is now "investigating" PBS and NPR.

Democracy is not negotiable. We WILL fight back.

This week, we conducted Baltimore's Point-In-Time-Count. This count is more than just data—it's about addressing the root causes of homelessness, seeing and serving our unsheltered neighbors, and ensuring that Baltimore has the resources to meet their needs.

BREAKING: AOC blames crash on Trump / Elon

“I represent LGA Airport as well as workers for JFK. Trump gutted the Aviation Safety committee last week. Air traffic controllers, already understaffed, got Trump’s “buyout” this wk with a 1 wk ultimatum to decide. It’s not DEI - it’s him. And Elon too.”

Who are the experts advising this man???
Always shifting the blame
It's a dark day in America 🇺🇸
It's a time to demonstrate real leadership.
Talkx abt DEI really, Trump! Blaming Obama and Biden.
Always lookx for excuses.
May God heels and strengthen the families #planecrash

[Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @RepAOC]

Republicans are exploiting this moment to roll back civil liberties & write their wealthy private prison industry friends an $83B check.

They aren’t working for you. They are lining their own pockets & hoping that drumming up immigrant panic will cover up their own profiteering.

America should consider building houses with bricks. The devastation, danger, and destruction posed by the status-quo of building/real estate models makes it more difficult to contain events of fire, given the extreme climatic conditions... #PrayForLA

Month after month, the world has watched as Israel treated Palestinians in Gaza as a subhuman group unworthy of human rights and dignity, demonstrating its intent to physically destroy them.
