this is not what i usually post but i had to rant abt this situation.

first off im so sorry for going mia for so long there’s just been a lot on my back these days.

what’s been happening in albania (my home country) is genuinely crazy and needs to be talked about more.

the situation has gotten some attention but i don’t think it’s enough.

our corrupt prime minister edi rama has allowed jared kushner (trumps son in law) and ivanka truml build a “luxury resort” on an island called sazan. the prime minister wasn’t even remotely transparent enough about the project with the public or the citizens. many have protested against this build but it seems that all has gone to waste. the prime minister couldn’t give a shit.

there is a petition i’m going to link below that is there to help albanian citizens voices be heard.

i also have a link, that is on my pinned post on here that is there to helps those in danger. but as i was looking more into it i saw that it also had a “help serbia” link.

in the contents i’m going to state below, i am not blaming innocent serbian people that are against what their country has done in the past, for crimes committed by governments and military forces. i am speaking about documented atrocities committed during the balkan wars and the need for victims, especially kosovo albanians and bosniaks, to be remembered.

the thing is, that in the year 1998-1999 there was a genocide (it wasn’t officially ruled as a genocide but it is one) committed against the people of kosovo. there were about 10.000 kosovo albanians killed in the war. there were about 20.000 kosovo albanians raped in the war. about 800.000 Kosovo albanians were forcibly displaced from their home country. 1.600 kosovo albanians remain missing to this day. serbian forces destroyed about 100.000 homes (including my mothers home). i cannot talk about everything that happened in the genocide, because there is too much really. to this day, kosovo albanians still face struggles caused by serbians.

there was another genocide committed by serbia in the balkans and that was the srebrenica genocide in bosnia 1995 that was targeted against muslim bosnians. more than 8.000 bosnian muslim men and boys were killed in the matter of days. thousands of women, children, and elderly people were forcibly deported. then there was the bosnian war that went from 1992-1995, that was in my opinion a genocide aswell. in that “war” about 100.000 thousand bosnians were killed. 20 to 50.000 thousand bosnians were raped. 2.2 million were forcibly displaced.

to summarize, serbia is the israel of the balkans. not enough people know about the genocides that were committed by serbia, and they should be known. i will never stop talking about what should be heard around the world, and never about my own people when all people do is silence us. this wasn’t even 50% of what happened during the genocides, if you want to educate yourself, i recommend reading books, watching documentaries or just searching them up online.

if your a good person with a heart, please share this post as much as you can! much love <3

crying in bathroom stall

7th grade

listening to only one music album straight

he is a grown ass man wearing a confederate shirt

and its not like he doesn’t know what it means, HE IS NOT STUPID HE IS AN ADULT WHO SPEAKS ENGLISH

he left his successful group to make christian music and it’s so obvious who he’s catering to

when he left, i wanted to support him but i refuse to support someone who aligns themselves with beliefs that caused a detrimental impact and effect on poc in america
