During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

On the anniversary of his murder, when he was hacked to death by mercenaries hired by Saudi Arabia, Jamal Khashoggi is beautifully remembered by another writer they have tried to silence, Karen Attiah. Important reading for us all.

Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory.

They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth.

But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi.

RIP, Jamal.
