Congo 🇨🇩 is facing a genocide as well. People are being forced into hard labor in cobalt mining, facing human rights violations (including sexual assault). It is men, women, and children working in these mines.

Exposure to cobalt is very toxic, causing pneumoconiosis, a lung disease caused by inhaling the dust. Cobalt is also toxic to the heart muscle, causing toxic cardiomyopathy. Symptoms of this include:peripheral neuropathy, sensorium hearing loss, vision loss, cognitive decline, hypothyroidism, weakness, fatigue and polycythe.

DO NOT stop talking about Palestine, but add Congo to your regular posting.

This is slave labor. This is genocide. Congo is bleeding.

All these platforms, including tumblr, can keep trying to wipe out all the videos and various other things showing all of the atrocities that have and continue to happen in Palestine. I have hundreds and hundreds of videos documenting this genocide ( and the others as well ) saved from every source I could find. I have photos. I have articles. Best believe that I have every last thing I could get my hands on. The list goes on. I save EVERYTHING.

I doubt I’m the only one.

So keep it up. We will keep reposting. If not here , somewhere. I promise. Silence will not be the end result.

Also , 🖕🏻.

I STAND WITH PALESTINE.

Does anyone have any book recs about the Congo?

YOYOYO DO NOT PAY YOUR TAXES AND IF YOU GOT TAXES TAKEN OUT OF YOUR PAYCHECK FILE TO GET THOSE BACK, WE WILL NOT FUND A GENOCIDE.

Congolese dedication to Gianni Versace, Roberto Cavalli, and Japanese designers since the late 70s is truly admirable.

Like Papa Wemba used to travel the world wearing those obscure Japanese brands (aside from Yohji, Issey and Rei) that nobody knows.

if you looked at me crazy when i said that cannabalism is a metaphor for intimacy and i cut you out of my life: don’t worry, it was personal.

you probably looked at me crazy when i said Palestinian/Congolese/Sudanese people don’t deserve to be murdered.
