@s_debadrita1709 🥹 thank you for all your support Deb!

@sndsapnaapna Hello I love u

Driving the storm that is running through COP27 for Alaa is a deeply political, politicised love. From his sisters, his mother, from everyone who is refusing to abandon him. He has always stood & fought for others, no matter how different from himself. And love comes back around.

We deserve a kinder world, considerate efficient governments, judicial institutions protecting our lives & rights, a space to breathe, laugh, cry and talk with our loved ones with out feeling this heaviness engulfing our hearts Happiness and feeling safe, surely not asking much!

Between the ages of 9 and 15, I literally contemplated a life plan to “de-Arabize” myself. Including a name change. But then I discovered books.

On #WorldArabicLanguageDay, I’m grateful to my parents who forced me to speak Arabic in a diaspora household when racism at my school made me ashamed of my heritage and made me hate Arabic. Many years later, I grew to love Arabic and can’t imagine my world without it.

Maybe it’s time to return to Twitter

Today the trial of 26 year old film editor & activist Sanaa Seif starts in #Egypt. She's being charged for her social media posts on the spread of Covid-19 in prisons & for insulting a police official. The way she was arrested/abducted is just shocking (see video).

Trying to find any leads for photo project on "Syriantown" in Boston, a neighborhood of immigrants from greater Syria that existed less than 100 years ago, before they were forced to move due to urban renewal and gentrification. Any help would be amazing! bit.ly/2H43BtS

توارد خواطر

في ملتقى الشباب العربي الأفريقي ومنتدى شباب العالم والقمة العربية الأوروبية وخطة رئاسة مصر للاتحاد الأفريقي تسمع عن كل القضايا ما عدا الديمقراطية والحوكمة ومكافحة الفساد وحقوق الانسان وتداول السلطة والحكم المدني الديمقراطي والفصل بين السلطات. اكيد صدفة.

Eight years since the start of the Syrian uprising. Every day, a million acts of peaceful resistance. youtu.be/j7_21ZVE1bE

لحظة مهمة أحب اسجلها: الخميس اللي بعد الجاي علاء المفروض يبقى وسطنا أو على الأقل بيخلص اجراءات الخروج 💓 #FreeAlaa

@kavindya_T Twitter Kavi is a next level badass

@ItsMalotka Yes yes

I reactivated twitter to incentivize myself to share more. My senior year: Doing an independent study on the Syrian revolution and war, engaging in Palestine solidarity work and thinking of how our authoritarian leaders abuse “anti-imperialist” rhetoric for popularity & power.
