Obsessed with how gay ‘Peace and Justice’ by Pompeo Batoni is so did a lil drawing of it myself

Due to current world events and certain discourse:

“you think you’re better than everyone else, but there you stand: the good man doing nothing. And while evil triumphs, and your rigid pacifism crumbles into blood-stained dust, the only victory afforded to you is that you stuck true to your guns. You were a coward… to your last whimper.”

Today’s Reflection

The narrow path that leads to heaven is paved with virtue and truth. For those who recognize this, they will find happiness. One such way is through the Ten Commandments, in which we find a reliable guide in life. In today’s gospel, we receive a second way through the Beatitudes. Here Jesus will reinforce virtuous in which we are able to find the truth as we walk along the narrow path in both good or evil times, such as what occurred Twenty-three years ago with the collapse of the World Trade Center. Yet, even here, we Christians have a sense of peace and untouchable joy as we walk with Jesus here in the present, because we adhere to the words of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. Because these truths come from God, they help us to avoid the pitfalls along the path that leads us to Heaven and eternal happiness.

All Eyes On Rafah tonignt. Do not let the Oscars distract anyone from the genocide. Big international events like this are a time for atrocities to be committed when the world is looking the other way. I hope those who speak during the ceremony think to mention Palestine in their speeches. I would. No justice, no peace. Zionists should be uncomfortable everywhere. Good art was never a warm home to fascists and never will be

SDG 16 as an Enabler of the 2030 Agenda (HLPF 2024 Side Event).

According to the UN Secretary-General in his Progress Report of the SDGs, in 2023 only 15% of the goals were on track to meet their targets by 2030, with SDG 16 falling severely off track. Promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, providing access to justice for all, and building effective, accountable institutions at all levels have a significant impact on public and private society, in formal institutions and de facto norms. SDG 16 is thus an enabler, accelerator, and one of the key conditions for achieving all SDGs through its cross-cutting nature that impacts many types of sustainable development that are foundational for addressing the complex interlinkages between poverty, inequality, climate change, and economic instability. 

---

Organized by the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (IDEA), this event will highlight the interlinkages between SDG 16 and the 2030 Agenda drawing from the findings of its new report, and showcase how policymakers working across the 2030 Agenda can accelerate action on development outcomes by supporting and investing in SDG 16 moving forward. In partnership with Member States, Civil Society and other stakeholders, this event will also highlight the importance of partnerships for the effective implementation of SDG 16 and its impact on all other goals of the 2030 Agenda.

Remember Your Humanity and Forget the Rest: A New Manifesto for Peace

On July 9, 1955, in the heart of London, a group of the world’s most prominent intellectuals and Nobel laureates, including Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein, issued a powerful call to humanity: the Russell-Einstein Manifesto. In the shadow of the Cold War and the burgeoning nuclear arms race, they urged the world to “remember your humanity and forget the rest.” This phrase, simple yet…

#changingpathschallenge2024: Peace

True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice. Source: Martin Luther King, Jr., Stride Toward Freedom: The Montgomery Story Dr. King was a brilliant man and downright prophetic. He had quite a few things to say about peace and justice, though the above quote is probably my favorite commentary that he offered on the subject.1 I hope that Dr. King and those who…

I love this man so much I wish I had the chance to meet him and talk to him.

He is one of the reasons I created this blog. He believes that love is the answer and I believe that too. I feel that love can set us free and unite us, I truly believe that.

Remember you get to choose who you are and how you act !!! Please act with love and kindness. It’s easy to act from a place of hurt and hate but it feels so much better to act from a place of love and happiness.

Israel violating 1979 Peace Accord and slanders now Egypt

The corridor is part of a larger demilitarized zone along the entire Israel-Egypt border. Under the peace accord, each side is allowed to deploy only a small number of troops or border guards in the zone, though those numbers can be modified by mutual agreement. At the time of the accord, Israeli troops controlled Gaza, until Israel withdrew its forces and settlers in 2005.

Tunnels! Like the non-existing ones of Al Shifa Hospital where instead very real mass graves were found once Israeli forces evacuated...
