Folktribunalen i Haag har sagt sitt om tre utvalda journalistmord, bland annat det på Lasantha Wickrematunge i Colombo den 8 januari 2009. Andra måste agera för rättvisa.

Justice denied in #SriLanka, not only when it comes to Sunday Leader editor Lasantha Wickrematunge. This is why the People’s Tribunal on the Murder of Journalists will take up the case in 2022 and deliver a verdict.

This week's #APFactCheck focuses on President Trump's comments questioning election integrity. Trump produced no evidence of systematic problems in voting or counting. In fact, the ballot-counting process across the nation has been running smoothly. apne.ws/kMlFRAC

Today marks the start of #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth. As we highlight the traditions and contributions of Native communities this month, we must speak truth about the inequities they face across health care, education and economic development.
All of that has to change.
