Als Sinti&Roma #ResistanceDay ist der 16. Mai ein Tag des Gedenkens an den Widerstand gegen Verfolgung und Völkermord. Die verfolgten Sinti*zze und Rom*nja waren niemals nur passive Opfer, sie haben sich in vielfältiger Weise zur Wehr gesetzt und um ihr Überleben gekämpft. (1/10)

While I strongly support #R2PforMyanmar ASAP, I believe there's much vital work that the #CivilDisobedienceMovement could be doing now that it isn't doing, namely, waging a fierce & effective propaganda campaign to accelerate defections from #MyanmarPolice & #Tatmadaw 1/n
The ideas I'll be presenting don't originate w/ me, an American w/o #Burma-related expertise, but are derived from the work & imagination of Burmese like @Rangoon_Film & @JusticeMyanmar along w/ a seminal interview done by @mrattkthu w/ a #Tatmadaw defector, Nyi Thura. 2/n
This interview hasn't gotten nearly the attn it deserves. With the help of @PhyoBurmaMade, who kindly translated the entire interview for a rando American (😄thank you!🙏), I'll begin by identifying what strike me as valuable points from that @mrattkthu interview 3/n
