Awed by the courage of those who trusted us with their stories of abuse & discrimination at MSF. Indebted to @arnabmajumdar_ and @decolonisemsf for giving me a way to act in the face of inaction. Hopeful this report bears witness to survivors and aids our movement to grow.
Decolonise MSF@DecoloniseMsf

Our 2021 report on abuse and discrimination in MSF, engaging 359 stakeholders, is live. It reveals abuse occurring at significant scale inside the organisation, widespread distrust of reporting processes, and despair in the face of inaction.

So many white people see accountability as hatred. That’s a problem

It’s baffling to me how limited some of y’all’s imaginations are. You can’t see anything past the world around you, or the possibility of better. You see success and pride in replicating the same harmful conditions. That’s unfortunate.

Analysis 🚨 | Digital food aid = modern colonialism. Tech corporations extract biometric data from desperate people who must surrender privacy for survival. Humanitarian systems become data harvesting operations controlled by US companies. thecontrapuntal.com/digital-coloni…

The Buffalo Soldiers didn't even do what that shirt says they did, either. So, not only is it disrespectful to Indigenous people and portrays them as villains, it makes the soldiers seem like active & willing participants in colonization when that really cheapens their legacy.

When non-profits serve funders more than communities, and when lived experience is tokenised instead of trusted, even justice work can become extractive. It’s time to name that—and do things differently. 🧵

One of the things I fear most, in the age of artificial intelligence, is that a lot of people will depend so much on AI prompting that they will lose connection with their own voice/intuition. Creating more disconnection with self & our divinity.

This narcissistic self-centred culture is a direct product of the fanatical jingoism that exists in "america" and how it's deeply embedded within the fabric of their society. From doing shit like the "pledge of allegiance" at school to the display of the US flag everywhere.

You’re more likely to be shot by a white supremacist at the grocery store than to be bombed by Iran.

Because our voice was silenced, misunderstood, shamed, or hijacked, doesn't mean what we had or have to say is unworthy or untrue-- and it doesn't mean that we cannot, day by day, remember & reclaim our right, responsibility, & ability to create & express ourselves through words.

We must tend to our gentleness to survive the violence of this empire. Don't allow the colonizer to steal your tenderness for it is what will nurture our children & our communities.

This has always been the reality - colonized, dispossessed, & subjugated people are the leaders in theorizing, analyzing, & teaching the world about power, imperialism, liberation, & resistance & colonizers are the leaders of propaganda & genocidal acts/justification/spectacle.

Has the person you want an apology from done similar healing work? Have they showed curiosity and compassion for how they've hurt you? If not, you can't expect them to engage in ways that would free you when they have not begun to free themselves.

You can’t expect apologies from someone who never apologizes. They can’t give you closure. You have to decide whether to forgive them or not without one.

This!! We need to stop memefying politics The medium is the message and memes by their very nature trivialize the serious, dampening outrage & allowing a release of energy without considering the actual cost to those that face the violence we think is never going to reach us.
Fatima Mohammed@fatima__m7md

americans memefying world war 3 as if they don’t belong to the most lethal and cruel nation state, one that shields them from the very violence it unleashes on the world, says everything about the level of apathy ordinary people have toward humanity.
