Dear friends, documenting the history of this moment is also an act of collective resistance.
As we watch the political class twist narratives in real-time, we must remember that what is at stake here is not just truth but also memory... https://t.co/w5qwFJn2xs
Yet another example of why we can’t rely on corporations to store #archives important to our social, cultural, and historical fabric. We need a multiplicity of storage and access solutions.
destroying archives—incl archives of political satire shows—is one of the first things authoritarian govts & systems do. the daily show & colbert show consistently spoke truth to power
this is a very dangerous trend, so i say this with my whole chest—

Always hear about how difficult it is get ppl to think about the enormity of various #humanrights violations. Interesting visual showing how so very long Afghan teenage girls have been banned from school. h/t @WritesRights
More than 1000 days have passed since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school.
I am periodically updating the number of days, counting it, and visualizing it.

I've learnt keenly as a Kenyan that the idea of "history will never forgive" is empty. "History" doesn't "do" anything. People "do". History is nothing if people don't document, archive, and preserve evidence. Document everything. Tell your stories. Hold space in the archives.
