it really is mind-boggling to me that the only reason i know about the Congolese and Sudanese genocides is because of the tireless work of grassroots activists and advocates posting on social media. I can honestly say that if I didn't have social media and didn't happen to be following Black authors and activists, I never would have known what was happening in Sudan and Congo because it is simply not being reported in the great majority of mainstream media. We're talking millions upon millions of PEOPLE enduring unimaginable pain and devastation with next to no official reporting. And yes that is in huge part due to the level of violence and displacement occurring that is preventing a lot of news from getting out of these countries, but it's also so blatantly due to anti-Black racism and the perception of African Nations as inherently savage and violent. But genocide is not and never should be normal for anyone anywhere. With that in mind, please keep Congo and Sudan in your thoughts. Check out Focus Congo for resources to help the Congolese people on the ground. Focus Congo's MO is a local organisation whose goal is to rebuild homes, rehabilitate land, and provide medical aid, education, and resources to Congo's most affected people. Also, Check out Keep Eyes On Sudan for how to help out and raise awareness of Sudanese people displaced by civil war. According to Sudanese TikToker bsonblast, donations to local food kitchens in Sudan are desperately needed to fight famine. If anyone has other resources specifically for helping Congo and Sudan, please add them and link them <3

I know that most of you don’t know the history behind this region. It is a result of the Soviet Union playing literal chess with the entirety of the caucus region. The only thing I’ll say about that is that the “disputed land” has countless Armenian churches and monetaries and graves dating back to the first century, (about 10 centuries before the Turkic people came to that region of the world). I’ll let you be the judge of who is on the right here as I know there have been losses on both sides, and that is tragic for all. But that’s not what’s important here. If there is one thing you need to be aware of regarding this topic is that this is not just a clash over disputed land anymore as a lot of international news sources are making it seem. The attacks are no longer in the disputed land but in ARMENIA’s borders. A country of 3 million cannot and would not start a war with that if 30 million, which has a literal superpower at its back like turkey, which has over 80 million. What this actually is is Turkey using this opportunity to continue the Pan-Turkic ideology that calls for the destruction of all non-Turkic ETHNIC (!!) groups in the caucus region. Re: Armenians, Assyrians, Kurds, Greeks etc (notice how a lot of those groups no longer have a claim to their own lands, and those who do ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING IT). This is literally a continuation of the Armenian genocide of 1915 and if the world closes its eyes at it once more, this may the be the end for us.
