The Holocaust was legal. Slavery was legal. Segregation was legal.

People who hid Jews in their homes were criminalized. People who freed slaves were criminalized. People who stood up for equality and justice were criminalized.

Legality is not a guide for morality!

Respect my EXISTENCE or expect my RESISTANCE

Oppressive laws thrive because of ignorance and fear.

If you don't know a Muslim or have a Muslim friend, follow me. I'll be that friend. Don't let hate consume you because of the lies you have been told.

Stand with minorities ❤️

-Slavery wasn't about "SAFETY"

-Racial Segregation wasn't about "SAFETY"

-Japanese concentration camps weren't about "SAFETY"

- Separation of migrant children isn't about "SAFETY"

- Muslim Ban isn't about "SAFETY"

- The wall isn't about "SAFETY"

[Thread] Based on recent discussions with @SamuelSokol, @TarikCyrilAmar, and @AuschwitzMuseum over the continued debates regarding the "naming" of concentration camps in Poland, I've decided it's time for a thread, b/c this is not about history but the present in Poland.

What has many Poles (and state-run museums) up in arms, is ANY connection of the word "Poland" with Holocaust sites (and more broadly behavior- hence the "correction" above.) They particularly rail against the term "Polish" death or concentration camps. edition.cnn.com/2018/02/01/eur…

The argument is that Poles did not establish or run these camps...which is absolutely correct. But the problem is, no one really thinks Poles built Auschwitz, etc. Sure, there are ignorant people out there or some students, but I defy you to find a scholar making this argument.

community who isn’t a #transphobic arserag can now spot whenever the usual #hate groups and individuals deploy their dog-whistles to denigrate trans people, especially trans women, but it is all too easy to forget that for the average cis person with no experience of...

2/n

Nigeria has always been Blessed with people of immensely wealth and fame.

History has it that Nigerians have been Engaging in money-spinning enterprises since 19th century.

It is not difficult to imagine that today's richest man in Africa, Aliko Dangote, wakes up in Africa,has his breakfast in Asia, lunch in UK, dinner in USA and sleeps in Australia.

You may also imagine the richest woman on the continent, Folorunso Alakija, attending a conference in North America, meeting with Female Entrepreneurs in UK, signing a Multimillion-dollar deal in South America, going shopping in Asia, and attending a wedding party in Antarctica.
