"The laments about “black pathology,” the criticism of black family structures by pundits and intellectuals, ring hollow in a country whose existence was predicated on the torture of black fathers, on the rape of black mothers, on the sale of black children." Ta- Nehisi Coates

Here is a map of the affected countries (excluding Tonga), to give you a sense of how much this new ban restricts immigration from Africa in particular. Of the newly-added country, Nigeria faces the largest impact, with tens of thousands of visas issued every year to Nigerians.

I've seen so many people online using the government shutdown as an opportunity to demonize people who receive SNAP benefits, WIC and any kind of government assistance. Here's the thing: I agree with those people. We need to end the WHITE welfare state BECAUSE welfare works. A thread:

Kenya: forever the sell-out in the continent. The soil carbon sequestration scam by the Northern Rangelands Trust that is literally killing mobile Indigenous Peoples is not enough, neither is REDD+ that is forcefully evicting forest dwellers, so it signed on to this carbon capture nonsense🚮

Why some in the Global South are not mourning the demise of USAID
The aid industry has always propped up imperial domination. Its implosion may be an opportunity to shape a new order.

Very unpopular opinion here in noting that, part of that policy consensus being callously swept aside was the EU dangling NATO membership to Ukraine, categorically knowing that this was a stated red line for Russia. So by all means, let them put their best foot forward to salvage the situation.

Trump pulling out of the Paris Agreement signals "final nail in the coffin of Western climate justice discourse, which, in the name of equity for the global south, advocates for policies that keep countries poor and non-resilient to the impacts of climate change" foreignpolicy.com/2025/01/06/t...

Trump Is Quitting the Paris Agreement. Poor Countries Should, Too.
Decades of hypocritical climate policies have failed the global south.
