It's a hopeful, critical juncture in 🇧🇩 now that Sheikh Hasina’s govt stepped down. Show solidarity with Bangladeshis: demand the US govt & int'l community support peaceful caretaker rule, the emergence of new political parties, & democratic elections.

The past 2 weeks in Bangladesh have been horrifying: a brutal crackdown on protesters seeking govt reform w/ hundreds killed, deployment of the army & shoot-on-sight orders, near complete communication shut down, and nationwide curfew. Bangladeshis deserve so much better.
