A number of Kenyan #SocialJustice and #HumanRights Twitter handles have been either locked or permanently suspended. It is unclear which @Twitter rules they are said to violate or what suspicious activities were noticed. #Kenya #HRDs #StayWithDefenders

Again, 12,000 scientists in 30 countries all taking nonviolent action for us. This is unprecedented in history. Meanwhile in Western Australia… – at Perth, Western Australia

Waking up in Perth, Western Australia today I’m feeling the strange disconnect between the desperate calls to climate action from the UN + world’s scientists overnight, and daily life here in my home state. The UN has just said the world mustn’t produce new fossil fuels.

Today we commemorate Patrice Lumumba, who died fighting for a free Democratic Republic of the Congo. Patrice Lumumba's dreams for the masses of the Congo were hindered due to his assassination. Today, the Congo continues to be ravaged by capitalist and imperialist aggression.
