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.
