🚨🔵 @hrw : Zimbabwean authorities have harassed, abducted, and arbitrarily detained student leaders protesting a proposed constitutional amendment to extend presidential terms, Human Rights Watch said today. https://t.co/KAORW98uVu
My take on Sinwar is that today a Palestinian picking olives was shot by the IDF just because. No matter how many "heads" Israel will get, Israelis and Palestinians will never be safe until Jewish supremacy and the occupation ends.
🚨Samuel Gwenzi, a democracy activist recounts how his rights, along with those of Robson, Namatai, and Vusumuzi, were violated. He was a victim of torture, cruel, and inhumane treatment.

Our new Activism under Attack-report is out! 💪
The report explores the repression of student activism, the ways in which authority figures violate the rights of student activists, and sheds light on what kind of support is needed.
Full report here: https://t.co/3nQzHcQ8KP
It's been over a month since the arrest and incarceration of Samuel Gwenzi, Namatai Kwekweza and Robson Chere in Zimbabwe.
Fighting for basic human rights and the betterment of your country is not a crime.

Can I say something, possibly controversial?
I strongly believe, based on conversation I have had off the record with certain people, that in the US and UK (possibly throughout Europe) everyone is aware that Israel is committing genocide and they will let them do it….
The lack of internal dissent to settler colonial occupation, apartheid laws, and genocide makes external pressure and the BDS-movement even more important.
Read @RifatKassis on what happened to the Israeli peace camp.

Israel has detonated the equivalent of 5 and a half Hiroshima bombs in a strip of land the size of East London.
Suggesting Israel’s mass slaughter is caused by Hamas or anyone else is straightforward atrocity denial.
Gaza: In the largest and most shameful concentration camp of the 21st century, Israel is genociding the Palestinians one neighborhood at the time, one hospital at the time, one school at the time, one refugee camp at the time, one 'safe zone' at the time. With US and European weapons. And amid the indifference of all "civilised nations".
May the Palestinians forgive us for our collective inability to protect them, honoring the most basic meaning of intl law.
DEMOCRACY ? One minute you’re free & the next you’re taken from a plane. No charges, no what ! They say you’re planning to disrupt the SADC summit. No evidence, no what ! You’re harassed, tortured and later arrested for a crime you didn’t commit. Sad ! FREE SAMUEL GWENZI !
Deeply concerned about the arrest of @Zinasuzim president @EmmanuelSitima7 just now, hours after the arrests of HR-defenders @cdegwenzi, @namataik_ and @robohchere.
The right to speak up, organize, and advocate for change is fundamental.
ACTIVISM IS NOT A CRIME! #FreeSitima
