#Haiti was the first country in the world to permanently abolish slavery & the slave trade. Haitians dealt a decisive blow to the entire system of slavery. Our ancestors became a threat to the existing world order. Haitian history is world history. Happy Haitian Heritage Month!🇭🇹

Can global health shift from saviorism to allyship? "The narrative of global health needs to be reoriented from saving, helping, and educating vulnerable others, towards working in solidarity and building transformative change" Wonderful @TheLancet piece by Nelson Sewankambo,…
