Dear @tomfletcherun.bsky.social, women and girls of Tigray were the primary targets of conflict-related sexual violence by Ethiopia🇪🇹 and Eritrea🇪🇷. Many women remain with no services and the UN needs to provide attention to #TigrayGenocide www.arte.tv/fr/videos/12...

As a Tigrayan, My Heart Bleeds for Palestine The world has finally come to the dawning clarity that Israel wields its position as a superpower to continually violate the basic human rights of the Palestinian people.

“As a Tigrayan, My Heart Bleeds for Palestine.” In this reflection on the atrocities taking place in #Palestine, a Tigrayan’s perspective is explored drawing parallels between the #TigrayGenocide and #GazaGenocide. Read omnatigray.org/my-heart-ble...

An unpublished chapter by Professor Jan Abbink of the African Studies Center of Leiden University called “Contestation vs. conciliation: Social media political rhetoric fuelling the Ethiopia war, 2020-2022”

This paper by Prof. Jan Abbink, noted scholar of Ethiopia and Professor at @unileiden.bsky.social has a misleading title. The paper is not about social media, it’s about denying genocide, slaughter, starvation, and systematic sexual violence committed against Tigrayan civilians.

Disinformation campaigns about the Tigray Genocide go beyond social media. A recent paper from Leiden University’s African Studies Centre uses bad research and a conspiracy theory to “debunk” genocide, mass rape, forced starvation, and massacres of Tigrayan civilians.

This is a screen shot from a video produced by a disinformation website called GetFactET featuring a young white American male wearing, for whatever reason, a Malcolm X hat and a vest. He is defending the Ethiopian government from accusations of gross human rights violations against an American flag backdrop. He looks angry and the caption reads "I hope we are not taking our eye off the ball." 

I swear that's what the image actually shows.

I think that I have finished my first thread for BlueSky. I'll know when I look at it again tomorrow. The current draft is about disinformation and the Tigray Genocide and features an appearance from the world's cringiest genocide denier.

Stay tuned.

Eritrean troops killed hundreds of civilians in Ethiopia’s Tigray, Amnesty says
Africa
Eritrean soldiers fighting across the border in Ethiopia's northern Tigray region killed hundreds of people in a massacre last year in a likely crime against humanity, Amnesty International said Friday.

THREAD: Weaponizing of Twitter in 2021 to spread denialism & manufacture consent for mass slaughter in Ethiopia, a mini case study. I bring up social media damage, both to urge @bsky.app to work on preventative mechanisms & to raise awareness of the horrors it has caused, far from western shores.

'Leave no Tigrayan': In Ethiopia, an ethnicity is erased HAMDAYET, Sudan (AP) — The atrocities have been seared into the skin and minds of Tigrayans, who shelter by the thousands within sight of the homeland they fled in northern Ethiopia.

Tigrayans are caught in a crisis marked by brutality & loss. As this report reveals, the trauma faced by these communities demands urgent global action to support recovery &ensure accountability. @SkyNews

🇪🇹’s civil war in the northern #Tigray region may be over, but the region is yet to eradicate the scourge of sexual violence the women continue to endure.

Many survivors continue to face severe physical & psychological trauma, compounded by a lack of support & resources in the aftermath of the war

Life in the Axum IDP centers is a daily struggle for survival. Families lack basic essentials& the need for international support has never been greater. Let’s amplify their voices& call for action.
