Friends of #AjakDeng you really need to help her. Her IG is very worrying right now and she’s currently homeless. Please reach out to her
My heart goes out to all the black and brown kids who are still confronted with Blackface/Zwarte Piet because of a system/society that denies to seeing, hearing, and valuing them.

May you know, that you DO matter, always all ways. 💛 #ZwartePietIsRacisme #blackpeteisracism
And when we speak we are afraid
our words will not be heard
nor welcomed
but when we are silent
we are still afraid
So it is better to speak
remembering
we were never meant to survive

Sweet July,
I’m open and ready to welcome new waves of experiences, embrace my high and low tides, nurture my #creativeself, remain conscious about how I want to use and share my energy, but most importantly I want to fully enjoy this f*** #Summer2021 ride.
Capitalism has dehumanized so many aspects of our lives, work included. And we contribute by normalizing it. It's about time we break this vicious cycle and 'how are you' would be a great start.
I don’t even care if you mean it thoroughly at first but by doing it consistently over time I believe somehow you WILL start to care. For others and yourself. And it will change our interactions and how we show up for the job.
We should start normalizing asking people how they are doing in work emails. Even if it is just an "I hope all is well your way". It shows care for someone else's well-being & a reminder of recognizing that there is STILL another human being on the other side of that message.
“Starting small consistently will lead you to bigger things eventually” #TrustTheProcess

Africa is queer!
Queer Africans deserve to be listened to. Their stories are African stories. Their voices are African voices.
We spoke with 9 LGBTQI+ Africans from across the continent to tell us about their lives in 2020. bit.ly/33qwuf9

I agree that all lives matter. But, for some reason, semantics seem more pressing than the truth! All lives aren't having to teach their kids, at the dinner table, how to navigate systemic racism and micro-aggressions fueled by ignorance and hatred.

I think our Belgian Prime minister should look into this. From now on, protests are only decided by the National Security Council & not by the Mayor... 🤔🤔🤔 #BHM
Physicians have joined protests in cities across the country, and an open letter signed by 1,200 health professionals says protests should not be shut down over fears of COVID-19 transmission ti.me/2MLdgqW

You can’t make this up... someone check up on @Fuego_rbc I screen capped his live. This just happened a few seconds ago. He was going to his car, after the protest... #BLMBELGIUM

Voor wie het niet snapt: al was George Floyd een seriemoordenaar en serieverkrachter van 4 jarige kindjes: dan nog is er *niets* dat een agent het recht geeft om een man die zich heeft overgegeven zo te behandelen.

George Floyd's death is why Kaepernick kneeled, LeBron James says: "Do you understand NOW!!??!!?? Or is it still blurred to you??" nbcnews.to/2XCAaWM
