KDF Made Us Proud in Sierra Leone, They Made Us Proud in Somalia, They Will Definitely Do It Again In DRC

My everyday heroes and heroines are those who risk their lives daily to protect our world and make it a better place; our military officers.

Today, the second batch of 200 troops from Kenya joined their counterparts in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to support restoration of peace in Eastern DRC.
The team is part of about 903 Kenya Defence Forces troops who have been deployed to neutralize M23 rebels in the Democratic Republic of Congo in a joint regional operation.

Durch d Timeline in 3min viel über #JKLive gelernt, bevor ich es überhaupt gesehen hab:

1 Lese davon & denke "Klingt gut, wie damals zu Seenotrettung"

2 Lese d klugen Kommentare v @MsOeming & @tran_vominhthu zu fehlenden Perspektiven

3 @ebonyplusirony wie immer auf den Punkt:
@MsOeming kritisiert das Fehlen von Women of Colour, queeren und trans Frauen.

Trotzdem findet sie auch lobende Worte für das Format:

@tran_vominhthu lobt das Format ebenfalls, kritisiert aber, dass mit Terre de Femme zusammengearbeitet würde, here's why:

Lieber @jokoundklaas, es ist toll, dass ihr eure Plattform #JKlive mit #männerwelten für dieses wichtige Thema nutzt. Wirklich. ABER...
..nicht-weiße Frauen, wie sie in eurem Beitrag nur minimal zu Wort kommen, sind noch viel häufiger Opfer von (digitaler) sexualisierter Gewalt (Bitte einmal „Intersektionalität“ nachschlagen) Wenn sie schon nicht mehr Raum bekommen, sollte das wenigstens erwähnt werden #JKLive
..das Gleiche gilt für queere Frauen, deren Existenz (und Schmerz) in eurem Beitrag gänzlich ausgeklammert wird. von Trans-Frauen mal ganz zu schweigen #JKLive

OPEN LETTER TO KENYANS
Dear Kenyans,
If I was @DavidNdii , I would have addressed this to the president, but majority of us can attest Uhuru Kenyatta is a president, not by merit but by virtue of the family and influence and bad politics; proven by his performance. THREAD #JKLive
This notwithstanding, still Raila Odinga, William Ruto, Duale, Mudavadi, Wetangula and so many are not any better, they just take advantage of our situation, capitalize on some inner information they get from insiders like who is corrupt, who is grabbing this and that etc,
shout and position themselves like saviors but in real sense they are worse than covid19. (Only publicize where they don’t have a cut).
Do we need positions for each community or roads, healthcare, wealth etc for each community?

1/37 #HistoryKeThread: Abandu Vosi - Not much has been recorded about the early history of the Abaluhya, who some early explorers refer as the Bantu Kavirondo.
2/37 But one thing is clear, the Abaluhya had diverse chiefdoms or kingdoms that had distinct names. So it should not be a surprise that we have Bukusus, Tirikis, Maragolis, Isukhas and so on today.
3/37 And, to a large part, they are in the aggregate the washemeji of the Luo, considering these two communities have for many years shared cultural similarities, and intermarriage.
