Ep. 26: Intersections of Tech, Advocacy, and the Oromo Struggle

In this episode, J/Maroo and J/Aangoo are joined by the director of We Be Imagining at Columbia University, J. Khadijah Abdurahman, to talk about the intersection of global tech infrastructures and social justice advocacy, focusing particularly on advocacy for persecuted nations in Ethiopia. Khadijah tells us more about her recent blog post titled “Fired for Speaking Out Against Anti-Blackness and Ethnic Cleansing: Open Letter to Cornell Tech”, and we also discuss important considerations to be made in our visions of liberation from the Ethiopian empire.
