I will never back down in speaking truth to power. The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians. Palestinians will not be erased. Solidarity with all those outside of these walls in the streets protesting and exercising their right to dissent.

#Coverified is now in 6 states, & @VasanthiSwetha just made it easier for you to find high-frequency verified Covid resources for #Bihar #Jharkhand #MP #UP #TamilNadu #Odisha all in one place! Please help amplify 🙏 Link to our website - rb.gy/m7jsx4

The incredible @VasanthiSwetha made a website collating the various efforts by a network of RAs and enumerators across the country for *continuously* verified Covid resources (with a special focus on the less central districts) across many states vasanthiswetha.wixsite.com/coverified 1/4

I am once again asking you, if anyone has doctors who'll agree to talk to Mukhiya's in Bihar, and can speak Hindi, Maithili, Magghi, Bhojpuri etc. Please connect with me.

Villagers have no twitter....we don’t hear their silent cries for help. All is not well!
