No struggle was won by ONLY seeing ourselves as victims of oppression, genocide & marginalisation. Pity does not rally revolutionaries. Describe our pain and condemn us to perennial subjugation. Describe the future we want and we will fight for it. https://t.co/0pNUBvympN

This is the most toxic form of cultural appropriation. To go to an occupying country, to legitimize it, to legitimize apartheid, to legitimize genocide and ethnic displacement. And then to wear the garb of the victims, to take their culture, to use it for your own glorification🤮 https://t.co/OexqevuKNb

A Commission of Inquiry is a crucial first step in ensuring full accountability for all atrocities, incl. violations that may amount to crimes against humanity + genocide. In carrying out this work, victims can regain confidence in the investigations… https://t.co/24CK4BNsjB

Using genocide designation as an instrument to blackmail any nation is not only intellectually bankrupt & immoral but also doing injustice to actual victims of genocide past & present. @StateDept @SamanthaJPower @SecBlinken @RepMalinowski @UN #NoMore

Who are the investors behind the Green Hydrogen initiative? If it's the Germans, is it part of the reparations owed to the 1904-1908 genocide victims? A German company, funded by the federal government of Germany wins the bid? Yes/No? #youthengagement

Today we commemorate all victims of genocide - in 1948, the international community made a promise by adopting the Genocide Convention: #neveragain! We call for outstanding ratifications and full implementation to realise the goal of prevention and to keep our word! https://t.co/eWj7tuz7wv

To the Nazis, all the Jews, Gypsies and others were rats: dangerous, disease-carrying rats. Hutus involved in the Rwanda genocide called Tutsis disease-carrying cockroaches https://t.co/wNAfiaLL4t... Its 2021 and we have laid the blame for the pandemic on the unvaccinated
