“So if you defund police who you gone call when you’re in danger?” There are a lot of resources that explains what defunding the police means but I know some of you will “hear it better” if it came out of the mouth of someone who looks like you. So listen to John Oliver

"Abolish the Police" is a concept that seems impossible to a lot of people when they first hear it so to break it down for anyone skeptical:

I always respected India’s decision to be a secular nation in order to prioritize peace and progress. What’s happening now is a deliberate unraveling of that promise at the expense of Muslims. It’s embarrassing, frustrating and leaves you hopeless at best. Also, do not @ me.

Just returned from Kashmir. Twelve year olds detained and beaten in midnight raids. Women threatened with rape. Young boys given electric shocks, families unaware of their whereabouts. This is the NORMAL you talk about. This is the worst I have seen in the valley yet #Kashmir

We owe it to people like @Spishaa and @Simone_Biles to push back against complicit and complacent media by sharing their words rather than media narratives. By Leslie Kay Jones ow.ly/w1eh50vLFLN

We should be calling for an immediate restoration of communication; respect for human rights, democratic norms, and religious freedom; and de-escalation in Kashmir. International organizations should be allowed to fully document what is happening on the ground.

#Thread I wasn't inclined to tweet about #Kashmir, but after seeing the amount of disinformation, I am going to. I'm back in the newsroom today after a week in Srinagar. Things are NOT normal. People are seething. Kashmir is likely a tinderbox waiting for a spark.

Just got back from Srinagar after 4 days. Very trying circumstances for journalists to report from. Lots to write and say. For now, please read our dispatches from ground zero. (1/3)

Indian diaspora needs to be speaking out against Modi. It’s shocking how much unchecked Hindu Nationalism there is, without critical comparison to white supremacy. People speak favorably of the Kashmir move as if it’s not a potential prelude to ethnic cleansing and settlements.
