BBC Africa releases a report about Colombian mercenaries yesterday. They are backed by the UAE and supported the RSF on taking over Al-Fashir, a city in North Darfur!
This is interesting this information has shared by Sudanese activists and journalists two years ago, but there is radio silence. So why is it coming out now? Is it because Sudan is entering its 4th year of the genocide? Either way look at how news outlets from the West deliberately pick and choose which pressing matter is worth sharing or not!
Please talk about Sudan at the same time! Boycott the UAE, donate to fundraisers and grassroots organizations and protest in the streets! Consider helping my friend, Randa (@rnd8) in the meantime. She is a Sudanese living Rwanda. She has raised funds to evacuate her family and we have achieved the goal, so she is extending a helping hand to her cousin, Maryuma, and her two young children, Rayan and Reem! They are in Khartoum, the capital, and they need to evacuate to Egypt!
This is a legitimate fundraiser via association. Randa's fundraiser has been shared by two sources: Jin (@/jinforjustice on IG), and @/northgazaupdates! You can read more about it here.
Please donate here.
Tagging for reach. Please leave an ask if you wish to be removed. Thank you.
€37,466 has been raised, and the last donation was made 25 days ago! Please donate and share! Maryuma and her children needs to evacuate out of Sudan! So let's reach the 38K mark ASAP! There is €534 left to go!

keep thinking about how I wrote in my dissertation about how every time a new form of public/social space emerges it's immediately popular with kids and teenagers who see it as a chance at freedom and then adults colonise it and kick them out. this happened with malls in the 80s and diners in the 50s and pool halls in the 20s. my dad was doing research on this trend in like 1975. and I was like "yeah so this is going to happen to the internet" and then five years later every government suddenly decided to ban kids from everywhere online. I hate being right especially when I don't even get paid for it
