#AfricanEmancipationDay #HappyEmancipation2024 #TrinidadandTobago was the first country in the world to declare a public holiday in celebration of the end of African enslavement. In the #Caribbean every year on August 1, some former and current British territories commemorate #EmancipationDay, marking the official abolition of slavery in the British empire. These countries include #theBahamas #Belize #Dominica #Grenada #Jamaica #Montserrat #StKittsandNevis #StLucia #StVincentandtheGrenadines #TrinidadandTobago #TurksandCaicos, and #Canada. In #Bermuda, however, Emancipation Day is observed on the last Thursday preceding August. In the photo below, two young ladies from an office in #PortofSpain demonstrate how many dress for work this week. #AfricanDiaspora 🦁 🌍 ✊🏽

Indigenous languages go beyond communication—they are also extensive and complex systems of knowledge developed over millennia. Language is central to our identity as Indigenous peoples, and it plays a massive role in preserving our cultures and worldviews. When our languages are under threat, so too are our identities. We are many communities, and we must strive to keep the diversity of Native languages alive 🌱 #NativeHeritage #NativeLanguage #IndigenousHeritage #IndigenousLanguage #NativeAmerican #Native #Indigenous #WeAreIndigenous #NativePhilanthropy #LanguageRevitalization #LanguagePreservation #SeventhGeneration #NativeNonprofit #Philanthropy #NativeYouth

If your goal as an African is to remain within the African continent soil all your life for reasons best known to you, fine. If your goal is to emigrate for reasons best known to you, fine. Either way, please do not disturb the choices or aspirations of the other African human adult. It is not racial emancipation. It is a violation of the other human's human rights. Please, live and let live ... Otherwise, you are unsettling the other person's private affairs and will be treated as an agent of violence. Other human races respect individual adults' reasonable choices however unique or similar, so should Africans. The reasonable progressive human thought/thinking in Pan-African society should be (fostering) reasonable freewill equitable development cooperation relations as individuals or groups may freely choose as they prefer to work with along all possible lines of possible multi-level freewill cooperation levels (home-diaspora, diaspora-home, diaspora-diaspora, home-home, home-diaspora-wider world, home -wider world, diaspora-wider world).

Kwanzaa is an African-American and Pan-African cultural holiday celebrated between the 26th of December and the 1st of January. Kwanzaa originated in 1966 as a way for African Americans to reconnect with their cultural and historical African heritage. It centres around ‘Nguzo Saba’, a set of seven core principles representing values that focus on building community amongst African Americans and Pan-Africans. Families come together during these seven days to celebrate these principles 🙌 May this be a joyous time filled with meaningful connections and community for all those who celebrate. Wishing you a Happy Kwanzaa! 🕯️🌍✨ [Visual description: carousel is designed in bright yellow, pink and blue.

The #Olympics have come to a close. It was an impressive and heartwarming few weeks for the #French capital and the world. The moments of joy, the emotions, the successes... At the same time, it was hard to celebrate in full, knowing the world was watching as a #genocide unfolded in juxtaposition. Despite everything, here are three moments among many to celebrate for #refugees, those affected by #conflict, and #women worldwide: 🥉 Refugee Team’s Historic First Medal: Cindy Ngamba, a #refugee from Cameroon now living in the Netherlands, made history by securing the first-ever Olympic medal for the Refugee Olympic Team, earning a bronze in women’s #boxing. Her victory is more than just a medal; it's a symbol of hope for millions of displaced people worldwide. https://lnkd.in/e3A8j2eb 🇦🇫 Defiant Afghan Breakdancer: @Manizha Talash, an #Afghan breakdancer, boldly made her statement at the Games by wearing a cape that read "Free Afghan Women." Although disqualified for this act of defiance, her courage and message resonated globally, showing that "everyone can achieve their dreams, even if they are in a cage." https://lnkd.in/eURQ-CaA 🇵🇸 Palestinian Team’s Standing Ovation: The entire #Palestinian team received a standing ovation at the Closing Ceremony, a powerful moment of global recognition for athletes representing a region under ongoing conflict. This ovation highlighted the solidarity and respect for their resilience, symbolizing hope and the fight for justice on the world stage. https://lnkd.in/eemK7NeX Let’s hope this final item — the show of global support, the movements that have yet to be dissuaded globally, and those protesting and standing up for our humanity — might finally translate into action for Palestinians. Although entirely too late, such actions are more needed now than ever.

Diversity, as an umbrella term, encompasses a myriad of variations. And Dubai for one is a country that's seen a major part of these diversities living together as one family. On this International Day of Tolerance, take merely 10 seconds, and you'll notice over 10 diversities around you. It spans cultures, religions, ethnicities, and a vast spectrum of nationalities. However, what the world truly needs is a heightened awareness about respecting these diversities and actively preventing acts of intolerance. Let's collectively strive towards a world where diversities are not merely praised in words but celebrated through tangible actions. #EmbraceDifferences #UnityInDiversity #AcceptanceIsKey

Understanding, respecting, and celebrating our shared heritage - that's the powerful essence of this meaningful day for South Africa. It was born from a commitment in 1995 to say 'no more' to the divisions separating people and a resounding call to come together. 🌍💙 Let's remember the wisdom of Nelson Mandela, who once said: “Peace is not just the absence of conflict; peace is the creation of an environment where all can flourish, regardless of race, colour, creed, religion, gender, class, caste, or any other social markers of difference. Religion, ethnicity, language, social and cultural practices are elements which enrich human civilisation, adding to the wealth of our diversity. Why should they be allowed to become a cause of division and violence? We demean our common humanity by allowing that to happen.” Let's use today - the #DayofReconciliation - as a reminder that we create a more valuable world by fostering unity, embracing diversity, and helping others. #DQS #UnityInDiversity #NationalUnity #CelebratingHarmony #UnityInDiversity #ChillReflections #HistoricalHarmony #DayofReconciliation
