On August 22nd 1943, ‘The Statesman’ published this photo of the Bengal famine, which resulted in the deaths of 3 million Indians.

The famine was caused by Winston Churchill's policies, who ordered the export & stockpiling of food in case Europe needed it as the war dragged on.

A Jewish student at Cambridge University gives MEE a tour of the Cambridge Encampment for Gaza.

“There's many of us here in Cambridge. Jews who believe that it is our duty, to speak out against the genocide that is being, carried out in our name, by the Israeli state”

There’s a common misconception that its only Apple iPhones are exploiting Congo. All smartphones, electric vehicles, computers etc use materials sourced from Congo. What you can do is stop overconsumption of these items & advocate for companies to reevaluate supply standards.

This child’s searing pain is heart wrenching to witness

But I cannot allow myself the privilege of looking away. Their suffering must not go unwitnessed.

As a mother, all I want to do is scoop this child in my arms & cry with them

When will this evil end?!

As a Holocaust Survivor Israel’s genocide in Gaza is not done in my name.

Gallaudet University was federally chartered in DC in 1864 for the deaf and hard of hearing. Maybe it’s just me but this is the first media story I’ve seen covering their contributions to pro-Palestinian student protests against genocide. Much love, !

The child’s eyeball has been forced out of his head. Good god. And they call us “extremists” for wanting this to end.

Inhuman, that’s what you all are.

Read this important thread on colorism. It starts with an important historical point in Freetown but explains why structural racism against dark skin people cannot be ignored.

Is there any way we can work on people having equitable healthcare, access to food, safe and affordable housing, and clean water first???

In Congo 🇨🇩 most children and mothers are suffering, everyone is just trying to survive each day after losing their parents and loved ones including their livelihood.
