Have you ever wondered about Cyrillic and its origins or what it looks like? Below you can read the story, and see the original symbols and the ones we're using today (FYI the transition between the two happened very early in its creation)
Today is a special public holiday for us in Bulgaria, the birth of our alphabet. The two brothers, Cyril and Methodius, created our alphabet in the IX century. They are both regarded as the country’s patrons of education and culture. In 1980, Pope John Paul II declared them co-patron saints of Europe. The Cyrillic alphabet is used today in 12 Slavic countries in Eastern Europe and Northern and Central Asia, as well as in non-Slavic countries, such as Mongolia, which adopted it in the 1940s. Celebrate with us :)

For an extended period, my fundamental human rights have been withheld: the right to live, to eat, to be recognized, and to father my children. I have endured denial, blackmail, and unfounded allegations. Nevertheless, I continue to resist being overwhelmed by falsehoods and deception. Despite the internal agony, I refuse to let it become my encumbrance. Instead, I find liberation in expressing myself, and sharing my emotions with those open to listening and observing. The United States Corporation has mischaracterized me, applying labels such as Negro, black, colored, African American—terms confined to a racial context. Recognizing my native ties to this land, I have validated this reality, notifying the United States Corporation of my rejection of their mislabeling and declining any further contract or guardianship, whether known or unknown. Currently unemployed, I collect cans and plastic to sustain myself and my children. I am able to earn up to $99 before being compelled to produce a state ID, which would strip me of my nationality and involuntarily bind me to servitude. While this reality brings profound sorrow, I will not allow it to conquer me. I stand resolute on my ancestors' age-old tenets, reclaiming what is justly ours. I refuse to give in to intimidation. Steadfast as a tree by the water, those of us committed to freedom will not cease until it prevails. We advocate for love, genuine peace, freedom, and justice to uplift humanity and promote self-reliance.
stand on love truth peace freedom, and justice.

As we celebrate Independence Day, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the deeper meaning of freedom, both in our personal lives and within our professional journeys. At Mindful Selling, we believe that true freedom in sales isn’t just about closing deals or meeting targets. It’s about the ability to sell authentically, to build trust without compromising integrity, and to create lasting relationships that go beyond the transaction. This Independence Day, we encourage every salesperson and professional to consider what freedom means in your work. Are you free to be your authentic self? Are you empowered to prioritize meaningful connections? Are you choosing a path that resonates with your values and brings fulfillment? Mindful Selling was founded with the belief that sales can be a force for good, that it’s possible to succeed while staying true to who you are. This is the kind of freedom we champion – the freedom to sell with heart, purpose, and integrity. Let’s strive together for a workplace where everyone feels empowered to be themselves and to create value in a way that feels right and true. Happy Independence Day! 🇮🇳 Here’s to the freedom to be our best selves, in work and in life #freedom #Independence #sales #work
Happy Independence Day, folks!! Let's celebrate real freedom this Aug 15th Akshaya Sampath 😉🇮🇳

Last week, Dr. Amir Al-Azraki (CLS) published an article in The Conversation that discusses how anti-Black racism in the Arab world is sustained, in part, by white fragility. The term white fragility refers to the defensive reactions and discomfort exhibited by white people when discussing race and racism. This fragility hinders meaningful dialogue and perpetuates systems of oppression. Not all facets of white fragility seamlessly translate into the modern Arab cultural landscape, but echoes of its influence resonate and shed light on the multifaceted nature of anti-Black racism in the Arab world. Within the Arab context, white fragility reinforces and maintains racist views of Black people, thereby perpetuating anti-Black racism and preserving existing power inequities. As such, tackling the nuances of whiteness and its associated fragility is essential in addressing and dismantling racial hierarchies within Arab societies.

What a wonder and privilege to read this reflection. For anyone finding themselves thinking on identity and heritage, this article does a great job of showing both how complicated and rewarding asking questions can be. Great job Anna-Liza Badaloo! 🇹🇹🇨🇦👏🏽 #IndoTrini #EnvironmentAndCulture #EnvironmentalProfessional #CollectiveHistory
Organizational Justice Consultant. Unlearner. Inclusive Storyteller. Leveraging empathy to confront colonial harms and foster organizational justice.
How can we use our privilege if we can't acknowledge it? In my latest for the Indo-Caribbean Canadian Association's STORY publication, I reflect upon being a descendant of Indian indentured servants, the impacts upon my own internalized racism, and how the Black/Indian divide that the colonizers set up then, still reverberates today. When the British abolished Black slavery around 1834 they had a problem: how could they maintain the ever-growing British Empire without enslaved Africans? Between 1845 and 1917 an astonishing 143,939 Indians came to Trinidad under the system of Indian indenture. Read the full piece to learn what they were promised, and how this history factors into current tensions between Brown and Black folks in the Caribbean and beyond: https://lnkd.in/gxgXxfxd #caribbean #indiandiaspora #colonialism
