Today, in the streets outside the Peace Palace in The Hague, Palestinian activists greeted South Africa’s legal team with gratitude and flowers.

🔟 years after Nelson Mandela, the anti-apartheid icon, passed away, his embrace with Yasser Arafat and his donning of the keffiyeh remain powerful symbols of South Africa’s special warmth towards Palestine aje.io/pmkmzz
Deeply appalled by this. This has to stop. But how do we make it stop?

Complicit in the Israeli genocide in Palestine, the US & Britain have unleashed yet more carnage in the Middle East as they’ve now started to bomb Yemen
Surely a clear breach of UN charter, not that international law seems to matter in Washington & London
Utterly depressing

I came of age during Ferguson and thought of that as the beginning… until I learned more history, and other “beginnings” appeared. We need ways to talk about beginnings that don’t erase precedents & ongoing movements & struggles & strides.

What has always bothered me about the “racial reckoning“ discourse is that it *starts* in 2020 with George Floyd, and not Trayvon Martin or Michael Brown or Eric Garner or Philando Castile or Sandra Bland or Freddie Gray or
Did Ferguson just not happen for ⚪️ ppl? Just baffling
