@osmanberet So true! I felt imposter syndrome for most of my grad school experience and am only now starting to feel like an “expert” of sorts.

@avery_everhart You got this🖤

@UWequityjustice @RalinaJoseph - "how do we learn to hold each other and our stories without judgment, to sit with discomfort and hold the heat that arises in our bodies, to develop a tolerance for discomfort, and find places to pause implicit bias" #AccompliceNotAlly

[Alec Karakatsanis @equalityAlec]

THREAD: One of the core recurring problems in our society and in our media is focusing too much on individuals and not enough on systems. When something bad happens, we (and the media) want to find "bad" people to blame for it. This is dangerous.

Beautiful, the way @kierandodds uses #drones for a better purpose - to capture the life of church #forests in Ethiopia. Stunning stuff! https://t.co/euvrf1NlmZ

Feeling from inside #addisabeba - mini 🧵
It has and continues to be a heavy year in #ethiopia. Sifting through various news on SM & looking for a seemingly unbiased conversation amongst trusted friends in-person. But in times of war, nothing is clear.1/

[Azeb Madebo @uh_zeb]

on a country of people who desperately need respite from cycles of violence and trauma all while claiming to care and “take responsibility for the stability” of Ethiopia.

[Azeb Madebo @uh_zeb]

In Ethiopia, ethnic identity has been codified and manipulated in the service of elites’ political and financial greed. These ethnic “liberation” movements and forces exploit Ethiopia’s condition of poverty to violently force their political/ideological/economic self-interests...

[Ethiopia Map @MapEthiopia]

A coalition of nine entities including the OLA and TPLF will soon announce the formation of the “United Front of Ethiopian Federalist Forces” in opposition to the current federal government.

This is intended to be a political body aimed at transition.

Another idiotic and useless measure, only hurting the common Ethiopian people. Biden's foreign policy is blind, clueless, and cannot listen and read the facts. Thus supporting tyranny and warmaking (by the TPLF). Immoral.
