About 48% of the world's cobalt reserves are in Congo, but 70% of the world's mined cobalt comes from there.

Cobalt is toxic to touch and breathe - and there are hundreds of thousands of poor Congolese people touching and breathing it day in and day out.

As we are inundated daily on social media with receipts of savagery perpetrated against Palestinian people, let us also amplify the voices of the unheard persecuted people of the #Sudan #DRC #Congo #Rwanda. Listen now to @poet_ktwo in his own words. Power to the people. #weoutchea #gullah #geechee refugees_easthorn @refugees

Hate having a broken phone screen - but do you know what i hate more?

Congo being exploited for its cobalt, coltan, casserite and wolframite supplies to make technology. Watching Congo go through a genocide just to support the excessive consumerism of the Western world. Watching Congolese children burn in cobalt mines.

I care more about people's lives than i ever will care about material status.

if you are purposefully ignorant about the genocide happening to the people in palestine and congo, fuck you. seriously fuck you. we are living through a time where we have all of the information of the world at our fingertips and you still choose to purposely ignorant and support the oppressor, the colonizers.

i’m tired of trying to educate ignorant people and getting called chronically online because i care about the innocent people getting murdered. if you are purposely ignorant, you are just as bad as the people committing the atrocities happening in gaza and congo.

free palestine 🇵🇸

Qurbani: (noun) sacrifice. A word that refers to the animal sacrifice given during Eid Al Adha. But as we fulfil this sacrifice with goats and sheep, millions of Muslims across the world must sacrifice their lives and families due to opressive, genocidal governments.

Whether it be Sudan, Congo, Palestine, or the Uyghurs—this Eid Al Adha it is important to take a moment to pray for the less fortunate Muslims who must Qurban everything that makes this festival special to us, whether it be family, community, or material posessions.

Eid Mubarak everyone 💗
