Tigray is fighting for survival. Tigray will prevail.

This Ashenda season, we sing while we mourn, we dance through the pain - knowing we’re all we got. We refuse to break, be silenced, or forget who we are. We’ll reclaim our joy, our songs, & our colors. We’ll forever remember those we lost & the betrayal we suffered. #FreeTigray

If tears could create an ocean, the crying of Tigrayan civilians would have created one. A painting by @ArtTigray that encapsulates the pain and suffering of Tigray.

Are you aware of what’s happening to the people of #Tigray? This is a humanitarian crisis. What more can be done, @UNHumanRights? Please share here. #TigrayFamine #TigrayGenocide
#Tigray in #Ethiopia is facing a man-made famine due to the siege by Ethiopian and Eritrean forces. There’s nowhere in the world that more than 6 million people are sealed off for 20 months and counting. This must end. arte.tv/fr/videos/109207-000…

I was invited to co-host a reception for Ethiopian Finance Minister Ahmed Shide and Ethiopian Ambassador Fitsum Arega. I declined. I will not break bread with a Minister of a government that has used a food blockade to kill thousands of civilians. bit.ly/36ZCekl

Rest well my loving, hilarious, passionate and dedicated sister. I am amazed at all you’ve accomplished in your 23 years of living and the legacy you leave. You are our blessing. We will fight on in your memory #ZuLegend. tiphub.co/for-my-friend/383?…
It is with incredible sadness that we share the loss of our rock, MVP, and dear sister, Zuher Ibrahim. As a leader, Zuher reflected the best of our board & the foundation of our team. As a friend, she touched each of us with her beautiful light. She is forever in our hearts.

Tigray will prevail #TigrayGenocide
The US is very generous. Unfortunately, when it comes to enacting Bills to implement concrete actions in Africa, Congress is extremely slow. A good example is Ukraine vs Tigray. Nevertheless, do not give up hope. Keep pushing Congress to do the right thing. Justice will prevail.

Thank you to @KimforGeorgia @elenaparent @DrLGJ3 @State_Rep_Kim for standing with the Tigray Community of #Atlanta as we continue to call for unfettered humanitarian access and an end to hostilities in #Tigray. The fight continues over 500 days later. #TigrayGenocide #FreeTigray

This is the #TigrayGenocide being orchestrated by the Ethiopian government. Wake Up‼️ @USAmbUN @POTUS #StopAbiy
The campaign to ethnically cleanse Ethiopia of Tigrayans did not start now. It began in November 2020 and is escalating. Whether you call it genocide or ethnic cleaning the reality is that there is a systematic, violent state campaign to rid Ethiopia of one ethnicity.
Hundreds of trucks are still waiting to head into Ethiopia’s blockaded Tigray region, which the UN’s emergency relief chief has described as “the worst place in the world to live in right now”. thenewhumanitarian.org/news/…

Ethiopia’s shifting narratives of its war on #Tigray: *November 2020: LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATION *June 2021: OPERATION NATIONAL SURVIVAL *July 2021: WAR AGAINST THE WEST Now: BLACK AFRICAN NATIONS vs COLONIALISTS The truth: A GENOCIDAL WAR AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF TIGRAY.
