  1. Someone some time ago used the term #GlobalMajority that was new for me (the old, white, male me) and I love it!

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_m

    Update: I now used the term myself. 😎

  2. Are reparations possible in a world still stealing?

    Another event I’d have liked to have gone to but which is already sold out:

    ibraaz.org/whats-on/are-repara

    ‘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.’

    The Global Network for Social Justice and Digital Resilience (DRN) is pleased to share a new report titled Pulse 2025, The Trump Effect on Digital Resilience in the Global Majority. This brief explores the most recent changes in the ecosystem and analyzes the evolution of the geopolitical, technological, and activism trends presented previously in the Scanning the Horizon (2024) report, from a Global Majority perspective.

  9. SIG: Evaluating Research from and About the Global Majority.

    A key quote from the session: the “Global South” isn’t a single entity. “Practices differ — what works or makes sense in one context can’t just be mapped onto another.”

  10. Keep making it a battle of primary colors

    It's always been the #GlobalMajority vs the #colonializers

    This isn't about "democracy" TurtleIsland & many other lands are subjected to violence from the #facists scared of #scarcity

    You hoard resources and then pat yourselves on the back for a Blue #party & call it dissent then go back to your cubicle two days later

    Reparations are still due

    My disabled body can't go toe to toe with #ICE even if my mom didn't need me alive

  14. The same goes for people of the #globalmajority —and anti-Blackness is *often* demonstrated by non-Black people of the global majority.

    Your #oppressed identities do not make you immune to oppressing others. If anything, they can sometimes encourage you to hold fiercely to the remaining power and #privilege that you *can* access.

    It would seem to us that the war can only end when every one of the approximately 17,000 hapless nazis and criminals exported to the #Ukraine from 52 countries, often indoctrinated in #FacebookGroups, are neutralised.

    For **many** reasons, the #GlobalMajority is **not** on the side of Ukraine.

  19. @tomcrinstam @zleap
    The problem with "getting a WWII history book" is it would show that the #USA and #UK funded and gave rise to the nazi regime back then to mine Europe and to be a bulwark against #theRussians, and they were able to do it the same thing again in Ukraine.

    Everyone who is not blinded by greed knows what is going on.

    Just because some are too afraid to understand, don't think that the #globalMajority are.

  20. Did you have a nice weekend?

    Imagine if someone robbed you of 300 weekends. Three-hundred weeks even!

    Since #JulianAssange's internetConnection was cut in the Ecuadorian Embassy without being effectively able to contact the outside world Julian, and **all** of us, are being robbed of basic #humanRights, and robbed of his life. The #USA and #UK are persecuting a #journalist, right now, and both are rightly being #condemned, however quietly, by a #globalMajority.

  21. "As a member of the African diaspora, the festival’s curation feels personal to me – as if it was designed for me. Yet I wonder how other members of the Global Majority will experience it, and I wonder how white people will experience it."

  23. "I was quite mystified by not seeing any people of colour around the city, in the central parts of the city ... I was aware that Liverpool had one of the oldest Black communities in the country, ... but these people weren’t visible. So I began asking a few questions, and things started to surface..."

  28. @JessTheUnstill I vehemently disagree. I never knew Black women were the only marginalized women in the #GlobalMajority? This infographic WAS NOT designed around Black women only.

  29. Many of my followers will notice I don't toot much about urban planning and I'm ok with that.

    This is a fresh account and will have new discussions about, in no particular order, #orgchange #equityandinclusion #belonging #globalmajority #wine #craftbeer #bourbon #inclusiveleadership and #culturalintelligence.

    At some point in 2023, I want to be #ProSci certified and in 2024 trained in #CQ. The latter can happen sooner if someone pays for it.

  30. I'm sure you have come across this article from the NY Times about which words and phrases you should and cannot use. The political divisions are profound in terms of what you use. I guess #GlobalMajority and #GlobalSouth haven't caught steam yet. I only heard #AAPI recently & it's only US specific. Would love to hear global perspectives on nomenclature when describing terms or groups, especially from those who are not in #DEI circles.

  31. A friend of mine tagged me on a recent #LinkedIn post about White-identifying #EDI practitioners not doing enough as opposed to us who are from the #GlobalMajority. We have been doing this work for a while now and it never seems to be enough to #organizational leaders. Something has to give. If you haven't seen the post, here it is.

  32. Someone on Yammer yesterday mentioned that they are tired of mention #inclusion. I am tired of when people mention #diversity because it is well known that we are a diverse world. We are both from the #GlobalMajority. They are overused terms that amount to a lack of change in our professions and workplaces? I'm starting to believe so.

  33. @zhivi It's not BUT other communities. It is AND. I speak of and protect my Black brothers and sisters everywhere I go. But we must speak loudly about our marginalized communities. Everyone is #intersectional and we must include their unique experiences. I speak of the #globalmajority #raceisasocialconstruct #BIPGM #class #caste

  34. (2) Several books to enhance my professional development

    - #Caste by Isabel Wilkerson
    - The Good #Ally by Nova Reid
    - Global #Diversity, #Equity and #Inclusion by Rohini Anand
    - Equity by Minal Bopaiah
    - Inclusion on Purpose by Ruchika Tulshyan
    - The Fearless #Organization by Amy Edmondson
    - Think Again by Adam Grant
    - Promises of Giants by John Amaechi
    - Mixed/Other by Natalie Morris

  35. If you are starting your #equityandinclusion journey, The Good Ally by Nova Reid is a good book to read. If you're an experienced practitioner or leader, this book isn't for you. At the same time, for the North American audience, you're learn about the Black and #GlobalMajority UK experience. novareid.com/the-good-ally

    Have you read it @marsharamroop @EDI_SarahMQ @CarolineRN ? Thoughts?
