This @HermelaTV panel last night was/is FANTASTIC.

Democrats need to understand going into tight mid-term elections that what happens to Ethiopia could effect the outcome & control of Congress.

AU Ethiopia Peace Talks: Day 2 #VotePeaceEthiopia

The strategy outlined here by Elias Hiruy and @NebiyuAsfaw of @EA_DevCouncil and the @GleanEthiopia nexus is exactly what is needed, and has already delivered big time.

Its a big part of why the Biden Administration has been softening its position on Ethiopia in recent months.

@EA_DevCouncil and @GleanEthiopia have a cheat sheet to help HOA, East Africa and Pan African US based diaspora voters to know how to #VotePeaceEthiopia

Here's the first @HermelaTV Peace Talks show. If I heard right there is going to be one every night.

Hermela and her crew running these through to the election on Nov 4th, and everybody amplifying the audience would be an invaluable way to leverage better outcomes for Ethiopia in both South Africa and Washington DC. #VotePeaceEthiopia

Actually this is the first one, streamed 24 Oct. featuring @karanjasan and @PeeblesGraham - a bit of a marathon but super interesting, Karanja's take on Uhuru Kenyatta is fascinating - as is Peebles' satellite high view of imperialist dysfunction.

In the first three days of this series, 100k + streams already. And massive level of engagement during them all. A Tour de Force.
