An informed voice of conscience: this is what this video, from the beginning to the end, is.
Chris Hedges reported from Bosnia, Central America, different parts of the Middle East – including Palestine – and other regions.
His awards – including the Pulitzer Prize – speak for themselves.
But most importantly, he’s a man of integrity. Of morals, values, and principles. Having seen so much war, he can only write and speak about the oppressive systems that enable and promote it.
This speech by Chris is incredible.
It’s extremely dense, informative, engaging, and beautiful.
I wanted to quote every single sentence. So I’ve decided to simply share it here.
He ends his speech with his letter to the children in Gaza.
He ends it in tears, as it’s only appropriate for someone who’s seen what wars do to children and for someone who has a conscience.
I invite you to watch it.
It will undoubtedly create value in your life.
I think it will go down in history. So please watch it now. And then share it widely because we need such informed voices of conscience to be heard everywhere.
Stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
❤️💔❤️

International Law is No More, Fascism is Here: How Will You Choose to Operate in This Reality?
Fascism has never been a thing of the past; now, to disregard it means to disengage from reality. As international law has crumbled, Israel is still destroying Gaza, and masked agents are snatching people of the streets in the U.S., I invite you to ask yourself how you choose to show up in this reality.
As the US Attacks Venezuela, Notice Who Bows Down to Empires and Spreads Their Propaganda
You would think we would be beyond cheering military aggression by empires. Yet be aware of this cheering, as well as of consciously erasing international law considerations in the coverage of recent U.S. attacks on Venezuela.
A Visual Summary of What Our Governments Have Allowed Israel to Do to International Law
When the UN premises are raided and the UN flag is replaced by the Israeli flag, it’s not even international news. It’s not a scandal. Because of the impunity our governments continue to generously gift to Israel (which in turn has rendered international law itself completely battered).
