Who are the Rapid Support Forces, the paramilitary forces who have provoked an escalating civil war with the Sudanese government?

Known as the Janjawids, these mercenaries accumulated arms, funds, and recruits as shock troops in conflicts throughout the region. Sudanese dictator Omar Al-Bashir was one of their chief funders. They began by crushing a rebellion in the western region of Darfur and went on to play a role in violence in Yemen and elsewhere. In 2019, after demonstrators successfully toppled Al-Bashir, the Rapid Support Forces carried out a massacre to regain control of the capital, #Khartoum.

We documented their rise in this text:

Now the Rapid Support Forces are fighting against the Sudanese military, at great cost to ordinary people in Sudan.

The militarization of a society does not benefit anyone in the long run, not even the rulers.

Good idea: create equality.

1. Small individual bias → Large collective bias.
When someone says a culture is shapist, they're not saying the individuals in it are shapist. They're not attacking you personally.

2. The past haunts the present.
Your bedroom floor doesn't stop being dirty just coz you stopped dropping food all over the carpet. Creating equality is like staying clean: it takes work. And it's always a work in progress.

3. Demand diversity near you.
If small biases created the mess we're in, small anti-biases might fix it. Look around you. Your friends, your colleagues, that conference you're attending. If you're all triangles, you're missing out on some amazing squares in your life - that's unfair to everyone. Reach out, beyond your immediate neighbors.

Atlanta Police and Georgia State Patrol Are Guilty of Murder

https://crimethinc.com/Atlanta2023

Yesterday, three months after the police murdered Manuel Paez Teran—known in Weelaunee forest as Tortuguita—the Dekalb County Medical Examiner finally released the results of the autopsy conducted on January 19. At last, it is plain for all to see how little evidence there is that Tortuguita shot at the officers, despite the allegations of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

Drawing on the autopsy and other evidence, we debunk the police narrative about the events of January 18 and explore what the police stand to gain from lying.

Dafür sind CH-Rap-Pionier "Black Tiger, Freestyle-Grössen wie Milchmaa oder Knackeboul oder Lo & Leduc, und ein paar meiner momentanen CH-Lieblingsrapper wie Sulaya, Xen, Dezmond Dez, Ali und Mimiks mit von der Partie.
