This is the first time in almost 2 years that Maria Kalesnikava has been seen alive by her family and pictured for the world to see.
She has been in solitary confinement in #Belarus since the summer of 2021.
Our father was finally allowed to visit Maria. I cannot believe it.

A story that I'm amazed hasn't gotten more coverage in Georgia is the Azerbaijani government openly and proudly interfering in the election in favour of Georgian Dream. Azerbaijani officials have literally bragged about contributing to GD's victory! mikroskopmedia.com/en/2024/1…

The urge for social justice can only develop properly and be effective when it grows out of man's sense of personal freedom and is based on that. In other words Socialism will be free or it will not be at all.

1/When I protested against mandatory hijab, after the security forces arrested me, my family was pressured to declare me mentally ill, the Islamic republic of Iran even taking me to a forensic doctor. One of my relatives came to see me in prison and shared the situation.
She’s not “brave,” she was having a mental health crisis.

Yesterday a girl was seen walking across a university campus in Tehran in her underwear in protest, after repeatedly being harassed by the morality police over her hijab. Within minutes she was arrested by the regime.
She has since become a symbol of defiance for women in Iran.

‼️ Slavery in Russia
I cannot stress how often I see reports literal agricultural slavery. This one organization reports over 3,000 rescued just by them in 2024.
This is from a hardcore Russian source. It is a real and lasting problem.
