We are building a #feministinternet and looking for a website developer for an exciting project. We are prioritizing women and trans people and while we'd love to work with someone from #SriLanka, we are also open to people from the rest of the Global South. Please circulate!
Indian journalism has been under threat before. What’s new is the lack of resistance from media executives, says @PamelaPhilipose of @theWire_in. Many editors are speaking a language we can’t distinguish from the language of those in power. There has been a ceding of ground.
@John_Amaratunga@ShareThis Economic growth cannot occur without social growth too. It is time to aim at disciplining people's minds for the economy to grow. starting with yours: https://t.co/q8IZdCvNgQ
@John_Amaratunga's uneducated responses as the Minister of Tourism in SL to the issue that occurred in Mirissa IS PART OF THE PROBLEM. Sri Lanka deserves a better response, one with educated, substantial thought. #TimesUp https://t.co/ugB63k6lXT
