Protesters gather in #Ethiopia to denounce the recent massacres of ethnic #Amhara in the #Oromia region and demand the resignation of PM #AbiyAhmed. Take a look as they chant, "Down, down, Abiy:"
Here's a clip from my new mini-documentary, "Ethiopia: Rulers, Reputations, Reality... and the Promise of Fano."

Who is #Fano?
Literally means patriot!
Who serve their community & Ethiopia according to their trades during peacetime whereas defending the same against oppression & aggression.
Fano played a pivotal role in defending Ethiopia against colonialism.
#Amharagenocide
Some of you doubt Amhara have been victims of genocide
When we try to speak up and expose it you try to call us tribalists
Oppressed and victimized people have the right to resist
Long live FANO
#Fano is coming.
"Fano is coming!"
CHANGE IS COMING.
It's not coming in a march of soldier boots. It comes in the voices of the people, in the steps of the populace.
However long it takes, the process has begun. Revolution started. The goal: victims saved, a nation freed. 🇪🇹
In honor of the brave stand by those folks in Addis declaring "#Fano is coming," here's a brief edited clip from my recent YouTube video.
Time to be lions because--
CHANGE IS COMING. 🇪🇹
In @AbiyAhmedAli 's Ethiopia, displaying & weaving your flag colours will get you stopped by police.
As part of the effort to impose Oromuma facism, the gvt has now fully banned the use of the unifying national colours which mean so much for Ethiopians & freedom lovers!
💚💛❤
Not that I'm bitter... okay, I'm bitter. And yes, I stand with the innocents in Gaza. BUT:
The Amhara can't wait for their justice... and they shouldn't have to.
Where is the global concern and attention for them?
#AmharaGenocide#Fano
It's not enough to beat the drum and shout for change when things go well. You must share the grief when things are horrible.
And it's very horrible. And of course idiots who report by phone 🙄miss details and call our friends "Amhara nationalists."

I foresee you winning. #Fano.
No matter how well armed, some BS "Praetorian Guard" fighting for its "Caesar" will inevitably lose against a people fighting as one for each other.
It's always been this way. It will always be this way.
Values are the strongest ammunition.
