Are reparations possible in a world still stealing?
HekayyatnaAnother event I’d have liked to have gone to but which is already sold out:
https://ibraaz.org/whats-on/are-reparations-possible-in-a-world-still-stealing
‘While #museums debate returning artefacts, coltan mines fuel wars in the Congo. While conferences discuss #postcolonial reparations, Sudan’s gold finances its own destruction. Ibrahim Mahama’s “reverse restitution” asks us to look at the empire’s ruins - but what about the ruins being made right now? Join Hekayyatna for an evening exploring what #Justice repair, and #restitution mean when #extraction never stopped, when the #GlobalMajority is still being #colonised and when tomorrow’s debts are being written in today’s conflicts.’

A ‘Cop of peace’? How can #authoritarian, #HumanRights-trashing #Azerbaijan possibly host that?
"The #ClimateCrisis is just as much about protecting human rights as it is about protecting the #Climate and #biodiversity. You cannot claim to care about #ClimateJustice if you ignore the sufferings of oppressed and #colonised people today. We cannot pick and choose whose human rights to care for, and who to leave behind. Climate justice means justice, safety and freedom for everyone."
by #GretaThunberg, November 11, 2024
"Cop meetings have proven to be #greenwashing conferences that legitimise countries’ failures to ensure a livable world and future and have also allowed authoritarian regimes like #Azerbaijan and the two previous hosts – the #UnitedArabEmirates and #Egypt – to continue violating human rights.
"#Genocides, #ecocides, #famines, #wars, #colonialism, rising inequalities and an escalating #ClimateCollapse are all interconnected crises that reinforce each other and lead to unimaginable suffering. While #humanitarian crises are unfolding in #Palestine, #Yemen, #Afghanistan, #Sudan, #Congo, #Kurdistan, #Lebanon, #Balochistan, #Ukraine, #NagornoKarabakh / #Artsakh, and many, many other places, humanity is also breaching the 1.5C #GreenhouseGas emissions limit, with no signs of real reductions in sight.
"Instead, the opposite is taking place – last year, global emissions reached an all-time high. #Heat records have been shattered, and this year is 'virtually certain' to be the hottest year ever recorded, with unprecedented #ExtremeWeather events pushing the planet further into uncharted territory. The destabilisation of the biosphere and the natural #ecosystems we depend on to survive is leading to untold human suffering and further accelerating the #MassExtinction of flora and fauna."

watch the whistle and tune? the #colonised britain.
#colonisers tend to perceive #colonised as Theirs
to dominate.Some dominions are allowed to get a feel in appearance only, that the playing field is open
If
and only
If
they agree to
sound, look, behave, think and imagine
like the colonisers.That kind of a process tends to be called something
that indicated taking
the colonised
up a notch.
