The genocide of Native Americans.
The enslavement of Africans.
The dropping of atomic bombs on Japan.
The genocide of the Rohingya.
The Holocaust.
The reigns of Saddam Hussein/Idi Amin/Joseph Stalin/etc.
The Settler-Colonialism of Zionism.
The destruction of the Amazon rainforest.
The plastic that fills the oceans.
The decimation of biodiversity.
The unreported rapes.
The unconvicted murders.
The unaccounted for detentions and unknown torture.
These are some of the things that I carry with me into Muharram,
ya Husayn.
A Mercy Case
