#Question Where is your DIGNITY? YOU can make a difference by coming out in support of our peace proposal that has already been voted in favor of by the biggest landslide in recorded history. By demanding its implementation you can get us closer to putting an immediate stop so that not one more child needs to die unnecessarily!!!! There is no law that says that the outstanding human rights attorney Ousman Noor needs to be the ONLY person who publicly comes out in favor of this peace proposals immediate implementation so that that the children of Tomorrow can stay alive unlike those who will die TODAY because of YOUR SILENCE!!!!! #QuestionOfTheDay Will the hostages be released?  ANSWER: YES! It was the very first question we answered as detailed in the Frequently Asked Questions located at https://lnkd.in/eZH3Eycc  If you are really thinking of remaining silent and not coming out publicly in support of this historic Peace proposal, then please ask yourself: WHERE IS YOUR DIGNITY?

Human rights are rights that everyone should have simply because they are human. In 1948, the United Nations defined 30 articles of human rights in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It established universal human rights on the basis of humanity, freedom, justice, and peace.

I often hear from individuals deeply interested in Ukraine's affairs that the Revolution of Dignity was a CIA-orchestrated coup against a "Russian" rule-based system within Ukraine. 🕵️♂️🇺🇦 While I understand this viewpoint and acknowledge that intelligence services worldwide work towards their national security objectives in such scenarios, I respectfully disagree with the notion that this was an #American-led coup. 🇺🇸❌ It was, unequivocally, the people of #Ukraine. 🇺🇦✊ These were people yearning for what we cherish in #America: the fundamental right to the pursuit of happiness. 🗽💫 Such happiness remained elusive under a #Kremlin-backed regime, with citizens at the mercy of corrupt officials and oligarchs. 💼🚫 And let's not forget, this wasn't the first uprising. The Orange Revolution of 2004 is yet another instance where the Ukrainian people stood tall against the same oppressive forces they faced a decade later in 2014. 🍊🔙 After waiting a decade for change, only to be met with more of the same, the people's patience wore thin, and in 2014, they said, "enough is enough." 🕰️💥 Little did they know that soon after, #Russia would annex #Crimea and instigate conflicts in Donetsk and Luhansk, leading to a full-scale invasion eight years later. 🇷🇺🚀 Despite these challenges, the Ukrainian spirit of freedom and justice for all remains unbroken. They continue to resist, embodying the true essence of courage and resilience. 🛡️🔥 Let's never forget their struggle and the ideals they fight for. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦🌟

The word and idea of #Dignity has been resonating so much recently. We can support ourselves and all we come into contact with, by offering a baseline sense of human dignity from our hearts. This is a choice and completely free to do. It is a beautiful way to move through the world. Begin with this simple idea. It’s an exercise that grows easier and stronger with daily practice. In truth, if we all could see every being as an extension of our divine Self, source- whatever model you choose, then we are creating a world with greater love, compassion and potential. Contribute your Compassion, rather than your Suffering. If you struggle with this and want to try something new, ask me about learning how to meditate. Shifting the way you think can change your experience. Xo Su

Keep The Dream Foundation t/a Daily Bread Organisation The recent events have highlighted the disturbing return of apartheid-style tactics, cloaked in the guise of so-called "cleanups." As a society, we must confront the harsh reality that these actions are inflicting deep trauma on all of us. It's time to stop turning a blind eye and start counting the true cost of these heavy-handed measures. The psychological and emotional toll on individuals and communities cannot be ignored. We must demand accountability and insist on a more humane, compassionate approach that respects the dignity of every person, regardless of their documentation status. This is not about politics or bureaucracy - it's about basic human rights and the well-being of our fellow citizens. We cannot allow the cycle of oppression to continue unchecked. It's time to stand up, speak out, and fight for a society that truly values justice, equality, and the sanctity of human life.
