Yesterday at the @GI_NewYork - a productive and much needed conversation about the future of accountability and the fight for justie, in Syria and beyond. With @AliaMalek and Ruham Hawash. With special thanks to @camillemassey_ and the @SorensenCenter!

[Jeri Milan @JeriMilan]

“We need to redefine what violence is: demographic re-engineering, seizure (theft) of property, are a kind of violence” ~@AliaMalek @SorensenCenter @camillemassey_ @WolfgangKaleck we need an accounting of the expanding catalogue of crimes against humanity and humanitarian crimes

[Jeri Milan @JeriMilan]

Journalism plays a huge role in this bigger inquiry: what is the plan of the world moving forward (to avoid wars and crimes born out of those wars, and the impunity that fuels it), we need to keep asking that question @AliaMalek @SorensenCenter

[Jeri Milan @JeriMilan]

#livetweets as a @SorensenCenter fellow for tonight’s event: “A Path Forward: Accountability for Crimes Against Humanity in Syria and Beyond” —roadmap to accountability under #UniversalJurisdiction made clearer by the #KoblenzTrial. Plaintiff Hawash joins from Berlin via zoom
