How the British empire decolonized but the monarchy didn’t: youtube.com/watch?v=TbmoGe…

Protests are sweeping Iran & women are burning their hijabs after the death last week of Mahsa Amini, following her arrest by the “morality police”. Human rights groups say at least 8 have been killed. Last night, I planned to ask President Raisi about all this and much more. 1/7

Incredible to watch — after over 4 decades, Iranian women, forced to cover their hair by a ruthless morality police, are now burning their headscarves in defiance.

For so many years, such a scene would be unthinkable. And now it’s happening right before our eyes.

Unbelievable. 5 years after hurricane Maria & Puerto Rico paramedics are yet again taking patients from 1 hospital, in this case the cancer center in San Juan, to another hospital because the backup generators are not working. 5 years later & we’re still talking about generators.

Bad Bunny is using the premiere of El Apagón's music video to broadcast a documentary about the current displacement of Puerto Ricans in the island—unmatched fucking energy.
