Some would say this is what many religions say is the calling of their faithful. And many humanist organizations all have the same value. If we don't take care of ALL of us, then there's no reason for anybody to care.

"Let’s get something straight: if being woke means caring about the well-being of others, challenging systems of oppression, and striving to make the world a kinder place, then we are unapologetically woke. Let the critics sneer. Let them turn “woke” into a punchline. Their disdain for compassion only underscores the necessity of staying true to its core values."

The measure of greatness.

My friend told me that I.C.E. is raiding an auto detailing shop in the suburbs of Detroit this morning.

Excerpt from "Instead of Turning Off the News" by Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

But let it all in. The fear. The worry. The anger.
The wishing. The compassion.
The longing to help. Of course
the big problems make you feel small.
But unless you can stand
in the place of yes to the world,
you can’t really stand at all.

"We have seen the images. Gaza looks like Hiroshima after the atom bomb in 1945. Who in their right mind can believe Israeli propaganda that this is self-defence, or that it’s targeting HAMAS militants?"

My final day at Kitty Pechersk in Kyiv was spent loading vital humanitarian aid: hygiene products, clothing, diapers, juice, blankets, and essentials destined for the community, providing a small piece of comfort to those in need.

Humanitarian organizations like Kitty Pechersk, and numerous others, are a lifeline for countless Ukrainians.
