If you're in the DC area today, drop by Dupont Circle at 5 pm for a community gathering where we will remember the late Egyptian activist Sarah Hegazi 6 years since she left us, reflect on her writings, and re-commit to building spaces where we value each other, including in exile. 🤍

Get you an advocate like Egyptian soccer coach Hossam Hassan who is not afraid to physically demonstrate what a tackle looks like. (Also lol at Mo Salah bringing down the temperature at the end)

As Elon Musk becomes the world's first trillionaire, one in 11 people go hungry every single day. "This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal."

Today marks six years since Sarah Hegazi left this world and tomorrow, we gather in Dupont Circle (Washington, DC) rain or shine to remember her words, to honor her memory, and to re-commit to being there for our community in the hard times before the easy ones. 🤍

Today, I'll be moderating a post-screening Q&A for "One in a Million" at @dcdoxfest.bsky.social, a film which follows a young Syrian girl over a ten year period as she experiences war, exile, and questions of identity. Join us at 1:30 pm at Woolly Mammoth Theatre in Washington, DC.

Over the last year, we've seen widespread displacement in Gaza and Lebanon, a crackdown on refugee advocates in Tunisia, the deportation of refugees from Egypt, and Syrian refugee returns post-Assad. Ahead of #WorldRefugeeDay, join @timep.bsky.social on Thursday to make sense of it all.
