Right now, the #DRC is in serious crisis - but the world isn't taking notice❌
Children & their families face violence, hunger & disease every day & are forced to leave behind their homes & schools.
See how children's lives are being turned upside down➡️ https://t.co/ZxZO3IYXNO
Families in Kherson, Ukraine have not had water or electricity for over two weeks.
They've been collecting water from puddles and waiting in long lines to buy drinking water and food.
Our team has managed to reach 4,000 families with assistance, but so many more are in need.
Today's SCOTUS decision will impact women & children in America not just today, but long into the future.
@SavetheChildren believes in & supports access to sexual & reproductive health. We'll keep fighting for policies that promote the health of women & kids around the world.
Greg Ramm of @SavetheChildren says "the first thing to note is that the children of Ukraine are joining 190 million other children in the world who live in places of intense conflict.. [It's vital to establish a] sense of normality.. so [they] can have their childhood restored."
“What we're seeing every day here in northern Romania is an endless stream of refugees coming across the border. They are cold, exhausted, and most of them are women and children.”
Dan Stewart of @savechildrenuk joins @wolfblitzer on the worsening humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.
Get ready to contemplate mortality with today's miCRo, in which @gibsramm turns a fruit-fly infestation into a philosophical problem: https://t.co/g5ozMy36Eu
The situation in #Tigray is critical. Many children have witnessed things no child should ever see.
@SavetheChildren's team is doing incredible work to deliver life-saving aid to kids and their families. But as @PowerUSAID notes, more than 1M are still in need of urgent relief.
Good discussion at today's #IAForum about how COVID-19 has only exacerbated existing inequalities globally and across America.
We need to find our outrage over inequality and re-double our efforts to build back better for vulnerable communities.
#Syria: Ten years of war, and new camps are still being built, like these ones in Idlib - for some of the one million displaced there last year
But new camps is not the solution. What people want is an end to the war, and to be able to return safely to their original homes
Dr. Maya Angelou is one of the most iconic and talented people in modern history. Now she's been named one of Barbie’s ‘Inspiring Women’ with a doll created in her honor! Our daughters need more role models like this!

Our movement is one born of love. Those who call it violent are the same ones storming the Capitol. BLM has never called for violence nor will we today. We do call for this: End white supremacy. Protect Black communities. Build a democracy that serves all of us, not a select few.
The unprecedented lawlessness we witnessed at the U.S. Capitol today is tragic and unacceptable. Our children deserve better. For their sake and that of future generations, America needs a peaceful transition of power.
Mitch McConnell says $2,000 checks are "socialism for the rich." Ha!
Here are the tax rebate checks corporations received from Trump's tax plan:
Amazon: $129 million
Delta: $187 million
Chevron: $181 million
GM: $104 million
IBM: $342 million
That's socialism for the rich!
Happy New Year! May 2021 be the year of awakening and real bold change. And let’s all continue the never-ending fight for the living planet. #FaceTheClimateEmergency#FightFor1point5
1/2 NEWS ALERT: @AttorneyCrump’s statement on newly-released footage of LaMarque PD Officer Jose Santos’s shooting of Joshua Feast.
Officer Santos didn’t give Joshua any verbal commands, but shot him in the back as he tried to run away.
Eating while Black is NOT a crime! @VBPD UNLAWFULLY handcuffed a Black man while he was eating at the mall. They stereotyped him because he “fit the description” even after he told cops they did not have a black truck & were not the suspects. We MUST do better than this!
Police wrongfully detain a Black man trying to enjoy a meal with his family in the #Lynnhaven mall for fitting the description wearing all black with dreads.
There have been 95 Black People killed by the police since #GeorgeFloyd was killed on May 25, 2020.
#JoshuaFeast posed NO THREAT to La Marque PD officer Jose Santos the night he shot Joshua in the BACK. Now, bodycam footage proves that!!
