An essential read, especially as the world is crumbling before our very eyes. I hope we all raise our heads from the yoke of capitalism and this insistent rat race and fight what we believe and know to be right and true. Thank you Fatima for the reminder and the challenge 🍉🍉
If the next person isn’t safe neither are you! We tend to care less about these issues only when we are the ones affected or a really close relative. I remember when corona virus started spreading in other countries apart from Nigeria and some other countries in 2019 and I asked my roommates about it and they acted so uninterested and shoved the topic away, seeing their reactions I did the same thing and not long enough it was in Nigeria and there was a national lockdown. Something we thought was an “abroad disease” became a national pandemic in no time. I think the issue is we have gotten so use to bad news that we accept them comfortably and it only gets scarier tbh.
