Under Ukrainian law, the majority-Muslim Qirimlis are recognised as an indigenous people whose language, culture and religious practice have special protection under law. They are an integral part of the Ukrainian nation. Laura can go burn.

Our fight against ICE is a systemic one. We, at @thesouthlander.com, recently won our lawsuit to unseal records of GEO Group brutalizing detainees in Adelanto. A stark reminder that abolishment of ICE is the minimum. We must abolish the whole system. thesouthlander.com/geo-group-re...

Our motion unsealed these records. Now we need your support to continue our reporting on GEO Group’s violence.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

My gosh. Yesterday, Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan asked FIFA to use its "soft power" to help Palestinians. Then today, just as the Egypt-Argentina match began, Israel killed Mohammed al-Wahidi of the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza — a group that also organized Gaza screenings of the FIFA matches.

May 18 is the Remembrance Day of the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars from Crimea in 1944, a genocide known as Sürgünlik in Crimean Tatar, meaning “exile” Qırımlı history is one of great beauty and resilience. Excellent essay by @maksymeristavi.com Ukraine won’t be free until Qırım is free

on this remembrance day for the Sürgünlik genocide, resharing one of my favorite essays i ever wrote: on how what happened to Qırım-Crimea during the first half of the 20th century can tell you almost everything you need to know about russian colonialism maksymeristavi.substack.com/p/russian-co...

Today, on the Day of Remembrance of the Crimean Tatar Genocide, we remember those who were deported, silenced But this isn't only history. Russia continues to hold Ukrainian civilians and POWs illegally taken from their homes, from occupied territories, from their families.

If you read one piece, today, on the #Nakba, let it be this by @danaelkurd.bsky.social As true, this year, as it was when written. #Nakba78

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

💥Before Hungary's election, Viktor Orbán labeled me a "Ukrainian spy" for exposing FM Péter Szijjártó's collusion with Sergey Lavrov, then his government filed criminal charges against me. Hungarian police have now dropped the case – for lack of any supporting evidence.🤷‍♂️

Another day of the Israeli 'ceasefire': Israel bombed multiple villages and towns in south Lebanon and continued to detonate entire villages

The ADL permanently sacrificed its reputation to get in good with a massively dangerous antisemite and white nationalist. They defended him and stood up for him even after his Nazi salute. Here's how he repays them. This is what happens when you think you're using bigots. They're always using you.

Search and rescue operations at the site of horrible russian strike on Dnipro have officially concluded. 6 people were killed and 23 injured‼️
