🧵I commit to amplifying civil society leaders' voices in Sudan, such as Resistance Committees, trade unions, professional organizations & the Sudanese National Group for Civil Society Organizations & outside Sudan, the Support Group for Sudan Global Initiative. #KeepEyesOnSudan
I will help spread the word about Sudanese civil society leaders' initiatives for peace, #humanitarian relief, & #HumanRights. I will encourage others to stand with Sudanese people & support their efforts.
I will use my communications abilities & connections to reach out to key stakeholders & opinion leaders as well as everyday people from diverse backgrounds who support Sudanese solutions by Sudanese people with support from, but not interference by, the international community.

🧵#SudanStressTips: Reducing the chronic stress of daily life as much as possible is important for overall health. 1. Make time for movement.🏃🏾 Wait for the crossfire to end & avoid checkpoints and roaming militias. Better yet, don't move; meditate while sheltering in place.🧘🏾
2. Set boundaries between your work & your personal life.🧱 Reinforce them with sand bags. Consider getting a guard dog.🐕🦺 3. Connect with people you care about. These may be people who own a generator or people with fuel to run a generator. Barter with food.🍞 #SudanStressTips
4. Speak with a therapist.👩🏽⚕️ Ask them where you can find bread🍞 to barter for fuel⛽ to run your neighbor's generator to recharge your phone📶 to connect with your loved ones💙🇸🇩 to make a plan to make time for movement when the roads become safe. #SudanStressTips
🚨OMG @TwitterSafety claims Nazi profile @0Norseman0 which follows Summerville, SC police department & uses the N-word & advocates "kill the Jews" is NOT in violation of @Twitter safety policy. @elon, White supremacist much?👀👇
@ADL, care to comment on @TwitterSafety's claim that a White supremacist profile urging "kill the Jews" is NOT against @Twitter safety policy under @elon?
Correction: I said @elon when I should have said "racist asshole who won't give us an edit button (@elonmusk)". My apologies.
🧵The evacuation of embassies across Khartoum signals the international community's failure in #Sudan. While we pray for their safe departure, we also pray that when they return, they will dialogue humbly with Sudan's civil society leaders, not just warlords. #KeepEyesOnSudan
The U.S. & international community, including European nations, showed a failure of imagination by negotiating exclusively with SAF warlord Gen. Burhan🤏 and RSF warlord Hemedti🐍 instead of with Sudanese Resistance Committees, trade unions, intellectuals, young people & women.
We mourn the deaths of four Sudanese #humanitarian workers. Say their names:
* Siddig Abdalla Tahir, Osman Abdalla Ali & Yusuf Ibrahim of @WFP_Sudan, killed by RSF in Kabkabiya.
* Ahmed Othman Fadl, Director of @IOMSudan's office in Al-Fula, West Kordofan.👇 #Sudan_update
😞 @IOMSudan staff member dies when crossfire hits his family's vehicle south of El Obeid, Sudan.
"The senseless deaths of civilians including humanitarians, which claimed the lives of three @WFP_Sudan employees in North Darfur on Saturday, must end and peace be restored."
"I am deeply saddened by the death of our humanitarian colleague, and join his wife and newborn child, and our team in Sudan in mourning." -- @IOMchief António Vitorino
