#DecolonizeTheUN 🌍 Today is the International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace — but what does peace really mean in a world built on colonial legacies and double standards?
✊🏾 At Manushya, we say: Multilateralism must serve the Peoples — not the 1%. Too often, global diplomacy protects the elite, while the Global South is bombed, starved, silenced, and erased. From Gaza to Sudan, from Congo to the Rohingya refugee camps — where is the outcry?
