Public Health, Community Organizing, Racial Justice has to be promoted under every circumstance. We must understand that what is right and what is wrong will always be facts. Hitler was pure evil; let us also recognize those others who fall into that same category. Be careful of "not" recognizing the other evil men who lived. If you are not focused, you may be on the wrong side of right because you are not paying attention. Restorative justice and public health are about doing right and speaking about racial equity and equality under all circumstances. There are some men today who are just as evil as Hitler and Leopold, "PAY ATTENTION" and vote in November.

There has been a resurgence of story telling recently and an attempt to retell our own stories as we see them...Our own realities our narrative from a unique blend of experiences. Many stories in history have been distorted in the past as told by those in power and those stories became unquestioned realities.Then came the powerful media machinery and shaping reality became the game of those who held the controls and buttons. Today the scene hasnt changed much....people tend to believe the stories of those who in power.....it is left to a few individuals to scratch the silky surface to see the truth down below. It is also how the story is told and the terminology used.....freedom....human rights....subjugation....apartheid....depends on who uses it and in which context to be accepted. If we just look around us we live in a world where Might (militarily speaking) is right and the stories of the dispossessed are dismissed as inconsequential. The aggressors are seen as victims and the real victims are condemned as aggressors.So whose stories are we telling ....whose narrative counts? The thin line between truth and falsehood is disappearing altogether as control of the powerful tightens on the reins of falsehood and thrives. #Narratives #OtherSide

Reflecting on our shared humanity is crucial in a world that is increasingly divided along lines of race and economic status. As grandparents, parents, and professionals, we must question the systems that perpetuate inequality. The reality is stark: over 117 million people were displaced in 2023 due to racial discrimination, according to the UN. This figure isn’t just a statistic—it’s a call to action edpcily when you see what’s happening in European countries. Racism, as a divisive force, seeks to undermine our progress by tying economic hardships to race, rather than addressing the systemic issues at play. In education, this manifests in the unequal value placed on institutions in the Global North compared to those in the Global South, where educational investment is three times higher. Such disparities reinforce the notion that one's potential and opportunities are dictated by race—a dangerous and flawed narrative. As we move forward not just as leaders, but as concerned global citizens, it’s imperative to challenge these narratives, ensuring that education and opportunity are accessible to all, regardless of race or background. Our children, like Adam, deserve to grow up in a world where they are valued for their abilities and not judged by the color of their skin. It’s time to reshape the world with truth and equality at the forefront. #EducationEquality #EndRacism #GlobalJustice #DiversityAndInclusion #EconomicEmpowerment #SocialChange
I write this as a White christian woman, who has the honour of having a beloved Muslim grandson Adam, nearly three. I wanted to point out that the majority of folk in the UK don't care a jot about colour or religion. Did I ever worry about the religion his parents chose to raise Adam in, never. Did I ever have any concern about Adam's safety or wellbeing absolutely not, because he's living in Scotland part of the UK. A place that I believe is civilised and accepting of all. I am in shock. Reports of hate crimes against Muslims in the UK are deeply troubling. The rise of right-wing extremism, fueled by divisive figures like Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson, is a poison we must confront. We cannot ignore the safety and wellbeing of our communities. I would urge all decent human beings to take a stand and eradicate this poisonous propaganda after all, we are all part of the HUMAN race. #StandAgainstHate #Scotland #raceriots #UK #nigelfarage #tommyrobinson

Whomever knows me personally or professionally I hope they know that I’ve always believed in open #communication in order to create different #perspectives of any situation, #idea, #thought. #experience or #struggle. #Empathizing with others in order to understand the way they approach issues, individuals & how they relate and find methods to address them. I believe in #humanity #freedom #peace & I understand that our society influences the way we interpret situations. Nevertheless the facts might be considered from various points but they’ll never change only our beliefs influence our perspectives inclining us to create double standards that serve our lives. #Occupation of any land isn’t acceptable & #imprisonment of people isn’t acceptable! Regardless of our need to justify unacceptable actions for political purposes. We should instead of justifying what’s not acceptable to us, try & admit we made mistakes & consider that we can create a wave of change that will on the long run serve us as well as those we are oppressing. I stand with #Palestine & I admire their courage, humanity in taking care of their communities & each other when they can hardly take care of themselves. #palesinians became a #symbol of #freedom #fighters #endurance & #empathy🇵🇸❤️

Change Please! Humanity needs fresh ideas and a new type of politics/politicians, representing mankind as a whole instead of fragmented political interests! We have to grow together in order to urgently address the issues that impact all of us like conflict, climate change, inequality and forced migration together. This we can only do without any dominance, as equals. Collectively in Solidarity. www.convergence.ngo & www.pax.ngo

If you believe in your freedom, but not someone else’s, you probably don’t really believe in freedom. If you think it’s important to save one group of children, but not another, you’re not actually committed to “protecting children.” If you destroy food intended for starving children and their families—and teach your children to do the same—you are not protecting *your own* children. If you try to silence those who are speaking up for people being harmed, or admonish them because you think they are speaking up for the “wrong people,” you value some human lives more than others—and it shows. Coretta Scott King got it right: “Freedom and justice cannot be parceled out in pieces to suit political convenience. I don’t believe you can stand for freedom for one group of people and deny it to others.” Post inspired by the always-brilliant Cole Arthur Riley: “Don’t believe the lie that energy given toward one liberation cause is energy taken from another liberation cause. Every wound is connected. And we won’t settle for a partial healing.” ❤️ @blackliturgies and @colearthurriley on Instagram Artwork: @catherine_corkfield on Instagram #ceasefireingazanow #savegazacivilians #savegazachildren #freedom #liberation

A #MUSTWATCH Movie for everyone!! Perhaps it will #encourage those who have the #resources and #position to really make a difference! We are living in the advancement era of the 21st Century using technology to spread information yet are we using it for the right purposes or to spread lies and negative propaganda! Who out There, will have the #courageousleadership to do what one man had done as an #ordinaryman save hundreds of children during the most Destructive War known to Mankind! ! "One Life" tells the true story of Sir Nicholas Winton, a British stockbroker who saved hundreds of Jewish Czech children from the Nazis during World War 2, by being: #Persistent, #Courages, #Compassionate #Committed! He had no technology available, no Social Media, Nothing except his Mother, Friends and Anyone who would listen And YES willing to risk their lives to do #WHATISRIGHT!!! Bombarding and waging wars are not the answer! How will innocent civilians benefit from this! Just imagine your children or someone in your family is in the same predicament would’nt you do whatever it takes to #SAVE their life!! In a time where media is readily available, it's surprising that more people aren't taking ACTION! It’s no use Discussing Action but rather Taking Serious ACTION to save Millions of Children in WAR STRICKEN COUNTRIES. Children without basic needs to live, deprived from: #Water #Food #Sanitation #Sleep It’s not about #WHOSESIDE you’re ON! It’s about siding with #INNOCENTCHILDREN!! Children are losing their lives every minute in #war-stricken countries, and it's up to us to be their voice and choice. I urge you to watch "One Life" and learn about the courage of an ordinary man and his friends who saved #S669 children and tried to save many more. Let's be on the side of innocent lives and give them the chance they deserve. #NOVOICE #NOCHOICE #ChildrenDeserveBetter Link to the movie:
