    Few personal thoughts on 9/11: Gazan schools observed a moment of silence for America’s victims. Palestinians in Jerusalem lit candles & laid flowers at U.S. Consulate. But the pictures everyone remembers are of a few dozen Palestinians handing out sweets.

    The CIA’s post-9/11 torture program ended in 2010 but continues to haunt its survivors. The attorney and clients of our lawsuit against the torture program joined us on our podcast this week.

    It’s very disappointing that didn’t directly answer ACLU question on U.S. failure to take concrete steps to implement CERD and UPR recommendations to establish a National Human Rights Institution. (Minute 49:05)

    Will the United States adopt a national plan of action to fully implement the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and take concrete steps to implement CERD and UPR recommendations to create a National Human Rights Institution?

    Tomorrow is the pledging event, an event where candidates to the UN Human Rights Council publicly present their human rights commitments. You can participate by sending them questions on Twitter using and following the event online!

    Every day, we should be doubling our efforts to defend rights of Black people and people of African descent until we dismantle systemic racism and achieve full racial equality and reparations for historic injustices.

    Today, I introduced legislation recognizing the first International Day for People of African Descent –– a historic moment that reflects our shared values that all human beings are born free and equal.

    In an ABC News interview, Biden was asked about the people who died clinging onto the departing plane and dismissed the question. “That was four days ago, five days ago,” Biden said. RIP Zaki

    Yes, unilateral coercive measures impact basic human rights and often have very bad unintended consequences.

    This is the story every journalist should be writing now—what happens to Afghans as essential services shut down? And how can donors exert pressure on the Taliban using aid conditionality without harming others?

    For those who don't know JNF stands for Jewish National Fund:

    Ancient agricultural terraces were exposed in Jerusalem after wild fires were extinguished. Those terraces were used by Palestinian farmers 100s of years ago to preserve the soil… they’ve been buried under JNF-planted pine forests, according to historian Johnny Mansour.

    Shameful decision approving cruel and inhuman policy that amounts to war crime. 30 years ago Meretz would have been the petitioner against such dangerous policy but today it’s in the so called “change government”.

    "If the United States is to avoid adding yet another chapter to its shameful history in Afghanistan, it must massively expand programs to bring Afghans to safety." Must read analysis of the inadequate U.S. refugee programs to support the Afghan people.

    “I organized people to vote for Biden. I drove people to the polls through seas of Trump signs. I drove Indian people to vote who hadn’t voted in 20 years. And what did we get from Joe? A pipeline shoved down our throats.” ⁦⁩

    Very saddened by the passing of Shulamith (Shula) Koenig. Shula was a fierce human rights defender who won the UN Human Rights Award in 2003 for her tireless work promoting human rights education globally. She was an artist, humanist, feminist and advocate for Palestinian freedom
