The rich want you to be uninformed, they want to control the narrative, write their own history, and control the world. Musk controls Twitter, Bezo’s the Post, Zuckerberg all of Meta, and they want tik tok too. Control the minds, the story, control you while they get richer.

For thousands of years, indigenous communities around the world would plant mangroves to lessen the damaging impacts of hurricanes, floods and tsunamis. Colonialism, urbanisation and capitalism largely reversed this environmental trend by destroying mangrove populations.

Working with #Haitian students and my local community in #Indiana to share and learn new languages has been one of the most enriching experiences yet in my life. We’ve enveloped each other in love, laughter, and care. Forever changed and grateful. – at Oxford, England

I spent time in Springfield OH reporting on Haitian migration. Some of the nasty misinfo being echoed today was already circulating. I spoke to officer Jason Via, Deputy Director Public Safety: "We haven't really seen any of that. It's really frustrating" npr.org/2024/08/12/nx-s1-505…

How Springfield, Ohio, took center stage in the election immigration debate

Springfield, Ohio's migrant surge sparks heated debate. Critics, including Trump's VP pick JD Vance, see the city as a cautionary tale of unchecked immigration. Supporters argue for economic benefits.
