a project that means a lot to me. Skateboarding is an indiscriminately open and welcoming culture, where it all comes down to creativity, risk, and freedom. There's a lot of blah in diplomacy, but skating literally brings people together and opens up space.
Scooter meets skater.
🛹 is sport, an art form and mode of transport.
🇩🇪 supports skate parks where people from different backgrounds can mix.
Excited to start the @AuswaertigesAmt's first 🇹🇭🇩🇪#SkateboardDiplomacy bringing 🇹🇭 skaters to 🇩🇪.

On this day in 1965, the US collaborated in initiating a coup against Sukarno, the first president of independent Indonesia. The coup-makers installed a brutal right-wing dictatorship that systematically exterminated up to one million people with the direct support of the CIA.
Paul Chambers, an American academic at Naresuan University, has been charged with lèse-majesté.
The Phitsanulok Provincial Court issued an arrest warrant after the 3rd Army Region filed a complaint over a lecture about the monarchy and military appointments.
The university president has arranged for him to report to authorities and acknowledge the charge on April 8.
Chambers is known for his work on civil-military relations in Southeast Asia. He teaches at the Center of ASEAN Community Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Naresuan University.

@GeraldNGOM@GerAmbTLV sorry, but how is it possble that an NGO led by someone with legally and historically distorted views such as yours has a special consultative status with @UNECOSOC?
Eine gesichert rechtsextreme Partei beschwert sich im #MoMa über das rechte „framing“ des Moderators und verweist darauf, dass er das Parteiprogramm lesen soll.
Moderator: „Ich habe ihr Programm gelesen. Das Programm in Thüringen beginnt mit einem Gedicht eines Nazidichters.“

Am 10.8.24 bombardierte die israelische Armee eine mit Flüchtlingen überfüllte Schule in Gaza und tötete über 100 Menschen. Keiner einzigen größeren deutschen Tageszeitung war das Massaker ein Aufmacher auf ihrer Titelseite wert.
Die @Tageschau behauptet, dass die von Israel bombardierte Schule voller Flüchtlinge war, seien Hamas-Angaben, die sich "nicht unabhängig überprüfen lassen." Dabei haben unabhängige Orgas vor Ort das heute bestätigt: u.a @EuroMedHRAr, @SavetheChildren, @ICRC_ar, Al-Ahli KKH...
Die Berichte aus #Gaza sind schrecklich. Dass Zivilisten getötet werden, die Schutz suchen, ist nicht hinnehmbar. Die wiederholten Angriffe der israelischen Armee auf #Schulen müssen aufhören & rasch aufgeklärt werden. 1/3
The reports from #Gaza are terrible. Civilians seeking shelter getting killed is unacceptable. The repeated attacks on #schools by the Israeli army must stop & be investigated quickly. 1/3
