Cultural identity, something we should insist on having a deeper understanding of. #Conflict in #Congo #DRC #Ukraine #MiddleEast and #polarization in the West can all be attributed to a decay or lack of understanding of who we are as people.

Le ministre des Infrastructures et Travaux publics, Alexis Gisaro, Tutsi congolais, a fermement rejeté le prétexte avancé par le Rwanda pour justifier une éventuelle invasion de la #RDC sous l’idée de protéger les Banyamulenge.

Today I held a copy of “Cobalt Red” in my hand for the first time. The moment summoned a flood of emotions back to my first trip to the Congo in 2018. As the world hears the testimonies of the Congolese people, I pray we will see fit to end to this disgraceful scramble for loot.

When @joerogan graciously invited me to be on his podcast, I wasn't sure what to expect.

He posted our conversation in episode #1914 one week ago, and millions of people have since learned about the new horror in the Congo - cobalt mining.

Change is inevitable.

Unacceptable, from both of them.

I say no to exploitation of new oil blocks in Congo because it will lead to emission of more greenhouse gases.

#SandraBland died in police custody 7 years ago today.

She was 28.

She was found dead in a jail cell days after Texas state trooper Brian Encinia violently arrested and threatened her during a traffic stop. He was charged for lying about the stop, but the case was dropped.

Happy Birthday to the late Patrice Lumumba, first legally elected prime minister of D.R Congo.

He was assassinated in 1961 following a military coup supported by U.S.A & Belgian imperialism which was admitted by US State Dept in 2013 authorized by president Eisenhower.

Alarmed by reports that Rwanda is again supporting M23 rebels fomenting violence, attacking DRC troops, UN peacekeepers, and civilians. We must investigate and sanction those responsible.

J'ai reçu quelques images de l'#Ituri que je ne saurais partager ici, elles m'ont fendu le cœur...💔💔💔

Que faut-il au juste pour que la paix soit rétablie dans cette partie du Congo 🇨🇩 qui est depuis plusieurs années le théâtre de massacres récurrents?

May the miracle of #Easter remind us that life always triumphs over death. During this time, as we rejoice in spring, let this be a season of hope and renewal. To Christians across Canada and around the world, have a Happy and Blessed Easter.

I think most of us would have guessed, but Denzel Washington gives the best advice.
