MAJOR UPDATE: We have now fully housed 200 African students who escaped Ukraine - more than any other single group in the world. ⁣

It has taken a beautiful collaboration of people and organizations and corporations to pull this off and I’m so grateful for each them. It’s been 24 hours a day for weeks behind the scenes. These students here barely escaped Sumy, Ukraine alive and are now safe in Budapest, Hungary. ⁣

I want to personally thank my team @GrassrootsLaw for giving me the space and staff and trust to pause my work to focus on this. ⁣

And I can’t name everyone, but a very special thanks to Jessica, Jose, Sarah, Chelsea, and Shelly. You’re the best. ⁣

Here’s more from @michaelcapponi - who has worked so hard and helped bring so many good people together to help make this happen: ⁣

“These are all African students who moved to Ukraine to study at various universities. Their dreams were temporarily shattered by these atrocities happening. ⁣

Thanks to our official partnership with @airbnb, this group and others totaling 200 so far (Africans only) are all in apartments for the next few weeks or we have purchased them flights back to their families in Africa. ⁣

This number is growing DAILY, as we continue to build trust and make inroads with this community. ⁣

This is another program that @globalempowermentmission #bstrong in partnership with @shaunking Grassroots Law Project] @pandemicoflove & @mindfulskatergirl has created to support African students from Ukraine. ⁣

We urge you to donate to continue to donate at globalempowermentmission.kindful.com ⁣

We cannot allow their dreams to be destroyed due to this horrible and unproved war. ⁣

Also want to offer a special thank you to my sister @chelseahandler for her incredible heart. Thanks for always showing up.”⁣

If we could make peace with Venezuela & Iran for we want cheaper oil, we could've done it ANYTIME.

If our gov't cared about democracy, human rights abuses, or even aggression against neighbors, we wouldn't accept one drop of oil from Saudi Arabia.

@edgarblythe,
I liked you since I met you long ago here on A2K because you never bullshit others or yourself nor did you gang up with the crowd for thumbs and pats in the back...not many like you any more.

Nobody interacts with me anymore anyway. Why not tell the truth as I see it?

@edgarblythe,
I never fancied popularity anyway, you shouldn't either it is a vain allure that we all fall victim off but one that it is possible to release yourself from.

Removing yourself from tribal warfare gives you freedom to think about yourself, what you want to become, and to analyse others, society at large, the superorganism, for what it really is...

Since ancient times the so called "uncivilized" partake ways from normal societal life, to achieve some semblance of self knowledge and world knowledge...I go for it but wont judge anyone who is not willing to take that extreme step as it is a costly one.

Exactly. Just be careful to not cause others to feel oppressed when their arguments fail them and you point it out, cuz I guess that's a pretty bad thing to do to somebody.

For me, on this 2 year anniversary of the murder of Breonna Taylor,
@JoeBiden
ain’t **** until he does right by all of the Black families that he made promises to on the campaign trail.

They’ve openly told me they feel betrayed and lied to.

It just didn’t have to be this way.

2 years ago today the Louisville barged into an apartment they had NO BUSINESS being in - and then shot and killed an essential worker that we all soon came to know as Breonna Taylor.⁣

She was a beloved daughter, sister, friend, lover, and colleague. And she should still be alive right now. ⁣

I’ve promised @tamikalpalmer and the family that I will never give up on this case. Just like Emmett Till’s family is still fighting. We will never give up.⁣

Today, 3 people STILL have the power to do something about this grave injustice. And if they are saying otherwise, they are lying. ⁣

1. @JoeBiden and his Attorney General and the DOJ could file civil rights charges today. Biden and Harris each made real promises to Breonna’s family while they were campaigning and have basically ghosted them now that they are in office.⁣

The Biden administration is the most likely group to move here. And they need to keep their promises. ⁣

2. The DA of Louisville, Thomas Wine, could still file charges. He originally said he couldn’t take the case because he had a separate case against Kenneth Walker, Breonna’s boyfriend, but that case has been dismissed. Thomas Wine could tag himself back in and file charges but refuses to do so. ⁣

3. And the Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron still could, but has already said he won’t. Theoretically a new Kentucky AG could as well. ⁣

Let me speak plainly.⁣

I am close personal friends with over 500 families impacted by police violence. ⁣

1: When Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were campaigning they met with these families, over and over again, in person, on Zoom, on the phone, and told these families that they would look after them and their cases once elected. These families believed them. ⁣

2: After Biden and Harris were elected, but before they took office, they met again with these families and assigned staff to meet with them. I WAS IN THE MEETINGS MYSELF. And these families were told to wait for the first 100 days of Biden’s administration to see progress. Those first 100 days came and went.⁣

3: Then those families were told to wait until certain people from the DOJ passed Senate confirmation. So those families waited. And those people were ALL confirmed. And then NOTHING from them happened.⁣

4. Those families then met AGAIN with Biden and were told to wait until the end of 2021. AND STILL NOTHING. ⁣

5. Then, in the New Year, the Biden administration MET AGAIN with these families, and were literally told to “wait until Black History Month” where major announcements would be made about police violence and their cases. And the month came and went: NOTHING. ⁣

6. Now it’s mid-March and it’s fully clear that Biden and Harris simply lied to these families. They are pissed and feel embarrassed that they ever took this man at his word. I know this BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME SO. ⁣

These families are prepared to literally camp out at the White House in the freezing cold to get this man to keep his word. ⁣

And what I know is this - when it comes to keeping his word to these families, Biden ALWAYS has a long line of excuses. But that **** is over. ⁣

BOTTOM LINE: The man makes time for the people and priorities he cares about. ⁣

He orders his staff to make time for the people and priorities he cares about. ⁣

AND I’LL END WITH THIS: These families don’t simply want to be heard. You meeting with them isn’t a ******* blessing. THEY WANT ACTION. Hell, Trump met with them and did nothing. That’s easy. ⁣

Keep your word @JoeBiden. ⁣
