Herbert Hoover saved so many children's lives in war torn Europe, but popular history doesn't tell people about that.

That is very true. A lot of people don't know that part of Hoover's story. And he didn't just save children; he helped feed literally MILLIONS of people around the world during and after World War I.

Hoover was also one of the most effective Cabinet members in American history. He was Secretary of Commerce under President Harding and continued in that role throughout the Coolidge Administration following Harding's death in office. And while his title was Commerce Secretary, he was basically the troubleshooter for any major Executive Branch issue that needed efficient management for both President Harding and President Coolidge. He may have nominally been in charge of the Commerce Department, but he was basically Secretary of Everything. And he was extraordinarily successful in that role.

Honestly, if Hoover had never been elected President, he'd probably be remembered as one of the great figures of the 20th Century. Unfortunately for him, he became President just months before the 1929 stock market crash and was Chief Executive throughout the worst of the Great Depression. And despite all of his immense talents as an administrator and at mastering the logistics of government bureaucracy, he didn't have an inspirational bone in his body, and the country needed a good President and an inspirational leader who could shine a light to help find a way out of the Great Depression. Hoover was an engineer rather than a politician, and his dour, aloof personality was the worst possible fit for the times in which he served as President. When he was soundly defeated by Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1932 election, a major reason was because the charismatic FDR was the anti-Hoover.

Much like Jimmy Carter, Hoover accomplished far more in his career outside of the Presidency than he did during his term of office. And it's unfortunate that he's not better remembered for his role as one of the greatest humanitarians America has ever produced.

On Humanitarianism

I don’t know if there is anything more painful as an advocate or humanitarian than to be silenced, but the mass silencing of advocacy is happening around the world. When you speak out “they”; the powers that be can threaten your work, freeze your social media platforms, delete your whole page, remove your followers - on and on. Since the U.S. Government has ownership over all platforms now pretty much (except this one) - including TikTok; which was said to be Chinese owned and run, but that’s another Government lie. If you’re targeted; that happens across all platforms. This happened to me and it’s been exhausting.

Then there are family or “friends” who have no concept of the world at large or anything that is actually happening with the Zionist regime essentially taking over the world; the “free world” or “new world order” as they call it. Ignorant people add to the silencing, shunning, and canalization of you, because externally it appears as if you are losing social media “clout”.

Advocates and humanitarians are highly educated and functional people; we have to be. So when we can’t use social tools as we aim to use them, it’s a problem. I ran my business from just my Instagram account for years. But with instagrams Zionist takeover and ownership my accounts are shadow banned and heavily monitored.

For awhile I was like, “fuck this, let me just not use it, let me pull away.” But then I realized the platform hiding humanitarians, spiritualists, and artists accounts is just a psyop and mental tactic of dehumanization. Abiding by it - even if there are no “likes” on the posts, would only be complying to the system I advocate against.

A humanitarian without a voice or platform is like an artist without a space to create or art supplies. So, after a year of being more silent than I’ve ever been on social media due a racist, fascist and bigoted regime, that most civilians don’t know they are subconsciously under the influence of… I have decided to activate my voice once again.

I’ve decided to leave the fear behind and a huge reason; maybe the only reason for this new found courage has come from me watching the resiliency, faith and steadfastness of Palestinians standing up to Zionists.

I thought to myself; Palestinians are out here risking their lives daily, under threat of having social platforms taken away, Zionists not only tapping their phones, but also calling them and threatening to have bombs literally dropped their heads. If they can risk all this in a war zone, I can take the risk, be resilient and remain steadfast as well.

Today also marks the one year point of the war in Sudan. Most people know very little about what’s going on in Sudan, because they cut the internet. They have been dark for 2 months now, but it’s sporadic.

I first began learning about Sudan and advocating against genocide in college. I will no longer be silent about it, because while joy and lightness can absolutely be found in war times; we are living in a genocidal world and that’s just the reality.

So I write this; really for myself, but also to alert you dear community that the time is in fact NOW. Actively BE the change you want to see, or you will SEE change you do not wish to actively manifest.

Move forward with faith and grace; using your voice for the freedom of generations that follow. Remain steadfast community!

Humanitarians are concerned that the Afghan hunger crisis may kill more people than the war.

Humanitarians are concerned that the Afghan hunger crisis may kill more people than the war.

Humanitarians fear that six months after the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, a mounting hunger crisis may kill more Afghans than the previous 20 years of war. “People are willing to sell their organs for a profit. People are attempting to sell their children. They’re in a desperate situation. They’re ravenous. And the situation is grave, grave, grave, grave, grave, grave, grave, grave,…

Tharaêl: Let me get this straight... vegetarians only eat vegetables?

Calia: Almost. Their diet is rather similar to ours only they have cut all the meat out of their menu.

Tharaêl: That is stooped.

Calia: It is all a matter of perspective. You may see it as pointless, but they see it as saving animals. The idea is not to take anyone’s life just so they would become food for their sake.

Tharaêl: They are naive. So if vegetarians eat vegetables then do humanitarians eat huma...

Calia: Malphas NO!

*Jespar walks by*

Jespar: They absolutely do! *Wink wink*

Tharaêl: *annoyed grunt*

Calia: I don't get it.

#Readytogo when crisis strikes

Earthquakes, floods or tsunamis,our United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) team has seen it all! Since 1993 they have been the first international emergency response team to arrive at the scene of over 281 disasters.

Now members of the UNDAC team share their stories with us from the frontlines of some of the world’s most memorable disasters.

They even provide us with a sneak peek into their “go-bags” or essential emergency bags that are “ready to go” with them as soon as the call to deploy to a disaster arrives.
