His Mother could barely stand tonight at his vigil. He was a girl dad. He was a friend to many. He was a Black Man and an American citizen.
ICE killed him on New Year’s Eve in LA.
His name was Keith Porter 🕊️
B’Tselem joins the Statement by 19 Israel-based human rights organizations on the deregistration of INGOs:
“The deregistration of 37 INGOs undermines principled humanitarian action, endangers staff and communities, and compromises effective aid delivery."
"Ensuring access to humanitarian aid is a legal obligation, not a discretionary choice.”
בצלם מצטרף להצהרת 19 ארגוני זכויות אדם הפועלים בישראל בנוגע לשלילת הרישום של ארגוני סיוע בינלאומיים:
״שלילת הרישום של 37 ארגוני סיוע בינלאומיים פוגעת בפעולה הומניטרית המבוססת על עקרונות, מסכנת את אנשי הצוות והקהילות, ומערערת את היכולת לספק סיוע יעיל".
"הבטחת גישה לסיוע הומניטרי היא חובה משפטית – לא עניין של שיקול דעת.״
Mamdani: I promise you this. If you are a New Yorker, I am your mayor. Regardless of whether we agree, I will protect you, celebrate with you, mourn alongside you, and never, not for a second, hide from you
Heads up if you use @DoorDash, if you’re promised a call with a supervisor, make sure the agent REMAINS IN THE CHAT with you until that call. Otherwise you’ll end up messaging into the void like me! So disappointed, angry, and hungry (which only adds to the first two!)
@DoorDash@DoorDash_Help If anyone’s curious: still nothing. So now it seems I’ve been lied to about a refund, AND about being connected to a supervisor. Cool to see that falsehoods are seemingly corporate policy! @DoorDash_Help@DoorDash
💥Opposition Leader Yair Lapid: "The festival of hatred and racism in which Jewish teenagers are attacking Arab neighborhoods has become a tradition on Jerusalem Day in the Old City. It is a disgrace and an insult to Judaism. There is nothing Jewish about this violence. The government ministers who remain silent in the face of these events are complicit in this disgrace."
@Uber_Support I dmed you, but also received another call from support to reiterate that I am “ineligible” for a refund, without explaining why. How is it possibly policy not to either refund the $118 I was charged or send the missing items?!
My @UberEats order tonight arrived missing $118.34 worth of food. 3 support chats/1 phone call later, I am still missing the items, and the $118.34. I am an @Uber One member. I order almost daily. Now I am questioning my membership, and use of the app in general. @Uber_Support
Flying a rainbow flag is one of the simplest things you can do to tell someone:
“You belong here.”
“You are safe here.”
Choosing to ban the flag also sends a very clear message.
Remember this when you vote for school board trustees.
Michelle Buteau slams Dave Chappelle and his jokes about the transgender community.
"[Comedians] can tell jokes and stories and not disparage a whole community. We can do that. We can make it funny. We just have to work at it, right? So, if you ever run into Dave Chappelle can you let him know that shit? I don’t think he knows that shit...I can’t believe somebody would make millions and millions of dollars for making people feel unsafe. That is so wild to me, truly. I’m manifesting this shit tonight. This is a Radio City Music Hall takeover, and I’m gonna tell everybody I wanna make millions and millions of dollars for making people feel safe, seen, secure, heard and entertained.”
