Vulnerable people suffer because regimes take away safety nets to fund these wars.All the while, those most heavily invested in this destruction are untouched.

War is such a wildly bizzare concept. So much money invested by the ruling class to get propagandized youth to kill each other for the interests of said ruling class.

The conditions of those who’re used as pawns either change marginally or worsen.

The KiSwahili word, nne, and the Twi word, nns, sound exactly the same. They're cross lingual homophones!

Swipe to see what they mean! The Kiswahili word, nne, means "four" while the Twi word, nns, means "today"
Like, Repost and Share if learned something new!

This week we found a nice similarity between a KiSwahili word and a Twi word. It’s so cool because these two languages are not AT ALL related!

Does this word appear in your language?

A black Kpera Ye Tshirt design featuring a pleading hand and text. The T-shirt’s left sleeve features the Afronalia logo.

"Kpera ye" is a Kpelle phrase that is often translated as "please". It is
more indicative of supplication than the English please. It can be used where the request is seen as unusual or serious, or to indicate persistence. Just like abeg!

There is so much happening that should aggressively radicalize you but, instead, some of you are stuck at empathizing with openly violent oppressors.

I might stop right here to point out that some of you may say, "I came up here to listen to some religion, about Islam, but now all I hear you talk about is black." We don't separate our color from our religion. The white man doesn't. The white man never has separated Christianity from white, nor has he separated the white man from Christianity. When you hear the white man bragging, "I'm a Christian," he's bragging about being a white man. Then you have the Negro. When he is bragging about being a Christian, he's bragging that he's a white man, or he wants to be white, and usually those Negroes who brag like that, I think you have to agree, in their songs and the things they sing in church, they show that they have a greater desire to be white than anything else. My mother was a Christian and my father was a Christian and I used to hear them when I was a little child sing the song "Wash Me White as Snow." My father was a black man and my mother was a black woman, but yet the songs

Something very odd about staunchly religious people. They’re often disconnected from what community really is, and always exhibit an empathy deficit.

It’s no surprise to me, for example, that white supremacy and christianity are almost inseparable.

Abrego is the *only* prisoner ever released from CECOT, so this is the sole account we have of the horrifying conditions in the prison in El Salvador where Trump has sent over 260 people from the US.

Model standing out in a sandy open while holding a cooler and wearing our white Jan-Baki tank top.

Cherish the warmth and the good times.

Jàn-bàki is a Hausa compound word that means "Lipstick" or literally, "red-mouth".

Model wearing a Sabaweli tank top while posing in front of a bougainvillea plant.

Sabaweli, is an isiXhosa word, popularized by its slang form, SBWL, meaning crave, desire, yearn or want and is normally used in the context of things or experiences one cannot currently have.

Undocumented immigrants and people in the prison population are pretty much the major enslaved class of America. Policy that guarantees their upward mobility actually would begin to crumble this country.

They’re one of the most exploited classes of people in the country, and the US maintains racist immigration policy to make sure that their dehumanized status is maintained.

My hot take for today is that the term “insurance returns” should exist. If, at the end of the year, you face no tragedy that needs coverage, a percentage of the total premiums you paid that year should be given back to you.

Tweet from Amir Shevat(@ashevat): I am a Zionist, I do not hate anyone, I wish every one to be free.
Maybe we can start with the hostage children held by Hamas?
Date: 02/06/24 Tweet reply from Kris Constable(@cqwww): I've quoted a time magazine article as the only reference point for my questioning, are you suggesting time magazine is unaware of what is really happening? What is happening that they're incorrect about?
Are you cherry picking edge cases as a logical fallacy/ confirmation bias?

Tweet reply from Amir Shevat(@ashevat): 
No, I am talking from experience serving in the IDF, we only arrested minors who violated the law in a violent way.
As apposed to you and the magazine reporter, I was actually there for years.

Date: 02/06/2024

I really should’ve sat in my corner and ate my food but now I know that Amir Shevat, one of 24 major investors in BlueSky, is an admitted zionist who has served in the IDF and advocates for the arrest of Palestinian minors.

Two models casually walking down an empty sidewalk. They’re both wearing black tshirts with Sabaweli designed on them.

Allow us to make *you* wearing this tshirt a part of someone else's list.
Sabaweli is an isiXhosa word that denotes a desire, yearning or, dare we say, a wish used in the context of things or experiences one cannot currently have.
As you can see, iyasebenza!
