"Sister, don't you have anything to ask us?" Hours after sharing their stories and smiles with Mathrubhumi correspondent, these fireworks artisans were caught in a devastating blast. From 73-year-old Prema, who was working her final day, to the young men crafting the ola-padakkam, this is a heart-wrenching tribute to the lives behind the spectacle. A haunting reminder of the faces we lost to the flames. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/kerala/thrissur-fireworks-tragedy-faces-that-spoke-with-a-smile-how-many-of-them-remain-j0yow6nq?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #ThrissurPooram #KeralaTragedy #HumanStories #FireworksAccident

@PugJesus Beautiful reminder that Iran’s Caspian coast isn’t just geopolitics—it’s home to people, history, and landscapes that refuse to be erased by sanctions or blockades. Keep showing the human side. #Iran #CaspianSea #HumanStories

There’s a lot being said right now about inclusion.

But inclusion is often understood as access, not recognition.

And those are not the same thing.

For many women, especially those moving across borders, this line is lived every day.

Not as absence of ability, but as absence of recognition.

This piece is about what happens when that line is redrawn.

This book isn’t just about missions. It’s about people. About the sacrifices they made. About how the Cold War shaped their lives.

Stranded in Rafah as an Israeli Invasion Looms - The New York Times

Two interviews with #Gaza citizens and their experiences since Oct 7. Each moved multiple times, each lost so much - family members; a house he had just spent two years building and furnishing, with a nice area to sit, have coffee and talk. This alone is such a tragic, huge loss: normal life, a home, aspiration, happiness, peace; everything that makes a person.
#HumanStories https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/20/podcasts/the-daily/rafah-israel-gaza.html

Worrying about #Normalisation just now. Not the rapprochement btw Israel and Arab countries but the normalisation of suffering and ongoing problems; that the longer the Gaza bombing goes on, the more “normal” it becomes and the less attention the world pays (as with other ongoing conflicts). Same with #ClimateEmergency - we are quickly getting used to all the catastrophic news. So important to tell #HumanStories, to keep #Humanism and #Empathy for everyone alive, in all of us

Very good essay by Hala Alyan on how people in “the West” (my own bad phrasing) often fail to recognise Palestinian humanity, stories, suffering.

The dehumanisation of others has been, is, a key feature of all brutal systems and atrocities, but it also has many manifestations in the more everyday.

Let’s keep on reminding everyone - because it’s needed- of this most basic fact: we are all human, we all suffer and feel. #Personhood #HumanStories

"The Immigrant Man and the Immigrant Girl," new on my #HumanStories -- https://joelmhoffman.com/Human-Stories/shorts/the-immigrant-man-and-the-immigrant-girl/

"There in front of me was the whole #immigration debate in a nutshell: a girl fleeing a country where she was valued less even than the clothes she wore, a new country that took her in, and a local population increasingly fed up with #immigrants."

"Who should get a bigger tip: a waiter who gave me good service or a waiter who really needs the money? Does it matter if the waiter’s values clash with my own?"

These and other questions are on my mind as I recall a recent taxi ride. "The Taxi Driver — And How I May Have Aided and Abetted the Enemy," a short in my #HumanStories series: https://joelmhoffman.com/Human-Stories/shorts/the-taxi-driver-1-and-how-i-may-have-aided-and-abetted-the-enemy/#tips

"The Taxi Driver — And How I May Have Aided and Abetted the Enemy"

My #taxi driver sat ramrod straight, and exhibited a confusing mixture of subservience and independence. Halfway through the ride I figured out who he was. And it was a problem for me.
