Listen to @zhashx, @AzitaGhanizada, @burqasandbeer, @baluchx & others talk about the importance of the #AfghanAdjustmentAct to our new community members.
There is a lot at stake. You can make a difference with a call.
📱 TAKE ACTION: https://t.co/dgdb7OAD2m 📱
New Afghan arrivals will soon live in legal limbo if Congress doesn't act. Time to give them a path to permanent legal status by passing the #AfghanAdjustmentAct.
📣 CALL CONGRESS 📣

Taliban ban female students/teachers at #Kabul University.
One female student — survivor of deadly attack at the uni in 2020 — encapsulates the trauma.
“I find myself wishing I had died in that attack with my classmates instead of living to see this.”

@Anand_Gopal_@elizagriswold and @RohdeD If ur taking part in a panel about Afghanistan and u don’t see any Afghans amongst u, and u are not advocating for Afghan voices 2b part of it then u are also part of the problem. @NewYorker where are the Afghans on ur panel?! #ourvoice
even if they didn’t, they should be allowed safety and refuge after all the misery and pain the world has inflicted on Afghans. let’s not value them by their contributions or capitalistic value. let’s value human dignity.
Been reflecting on how the pain of having to flee your homeland/becoming a refugee reverberates through the rest of your life. Every milestone, every birth, every death, is accompanied by a pain in the backdrop that never leaves you: that you are apart from the people you love.
Relatives attempted to cross the border at Spin Boldak last week. They were beaten so badly by the Taliban that they gave up and trekked back to Kabul.
The desperation to leave Afghanistan continues — despite international media no longer paying much attention.
You can’t slaughter 1,428 innocent creatures under the disguise of an “indigenous hunt”. If a tradition is rooted in brutality it needs to be corrected no matter how “significant” the tradition @Tinganes@denmarkdotdk@EUCouncil
This is horrific.
A huge pod of white-sided dolphins have been brutally slaughtered in the Faroe Islands this evening.

Not including 1 Afghan, how does that make sense?! We r tired of being talked about and not included in the dialogue. There is no excuse for this. Has not including Afghans what has created all these problems. We are demanding better. #RepresentationMatters#DoBetter@isanet
