Juneteenth= Independence Day The 13th Amendment did not automatically free all slaves. Juneteenth celebrates the day of freedom that was finally granted in Galveston, Texas when troops needed to arrive to enforce the freedom granted years earlier. Let us continue to never give up hope and continue to fight for freedom and justice. Learn more: @NMAAHC #juneteenth #socialjustice #freedom #equity #dragonflyrising

I'm not a subscriber, so I can't read this Times article, but if Sue Gray is serious about introducing Irish-style citizen assemblies in the UK, it's worth some reflection on how citizen assemblies interact with politics differently in first-past-the-post systems which incentivise polarisation rather than in coalition-building systems such as PR which are used to handling multiple strands of opinion in a government programme. Also, the Irish citizen assemblies were followed by referendums, which were essential for confirming the decision of a small group of citizens through an expression of the overall democratic will. Is that going to fly in the UK in the same way? https://lnkd.in/esK-VCnf

More Sham Politics ..... From all of the many things that could or should be talked about and understood, the encapsulation of that is as following; "an unelected Foreign Secretary, who lied to the British electorate, who was inept and deceitful in his own foreign policy, and who will not be accountable in the house of commons, was appointed by the unelected Prime Minister, who does not speak for the British people, and who stated that his "top team is now United". What an absolute farce ..... This could even feature as a 'Fawlty Towers' re-make! What kind of integrity and intellectual leadership can truly be derived from this type of inexcusable or inexplicable politics? #british #britishbusiness #politics #inauguration #foreignaffairs #citizenship #middleeast #brexit #houseofcommons #houseoflords #political #politicalrisk #politicalnews #politicalleadership #governmentaffairs #election2024

🌍🇪🇺 Sharing a thought-provoking image acknowledging the increasing representation of far-right parties within the European Parliament. As we observe the landscape of EU institutions, it's crucial to recognize the growing presence of far-right parties within the Identity and Democracy Group. Additionally, with the ECR Group expected to become the fourth force in the European Parliament, also led by euroskeptic parties, the collective impact of ECR and ID would encompass over 170 MEPs. This image serves as a stark reminder of the challenges we face in upholding democracy and inclusivity within the European Union. Let's continue to engage in constructive dialogue and action to safeguard the values that unite us and promote a diverse, equitable, and democratic Europe. #EuropeanUnion #IdentityAndDemocracyParty #FarRight #Democracy #Inclusivity #EUParliament 📷: Change in POLITICO Poll of Polls European Parliament seat projection over time.

"Around the world, the enemies of liberal democracy are accelerating their attacks, contributing to the 17th consecutive year of decline in global freedom.” That’s according to the latest Freedom in the World report from Freedom House, which assesses the condition of political rights and civil liberties across the world. The report also notes that “the global struggle for democracy approached a possbile turning point in 2022”. Protecting democracy is core to NATO’s purpose, as specified in its founding treaty. Reports like this, while troubling, are also reminders of the importance of our work today. You find the individual countries "freedom ranking" in https://lnkd.in/dggFWbPW - the top position is shared among Finland, Norway and Sweden.
