Kenyan schoolgirls tried to perform Echoes of War, a play about youth losing faith in their leaders. 🎭✊🏾

Police shut it down, detained their director, and fired tear gas. These girls were silenced for speaking up.

A direct attack on freedom of speech and children’s rights. 😢⚖️

The number of people who know me from Facebook who heard I'm leaving and asked if I'm on Instagram makes me very sad.

I'm sorry but you do realize that's the same company, right?

I’ve officially closed my Instagram account. FB is next. Baby steps, but at least they are in a direction away from supporting immoral corporations.

I referenced this the other day at an event and got the sense that most people had never heard of it, but looking to be ahead of its time!
