Save Congo - Tumblr Posts
i’ve realized how wrong it is for me to be silent about what’s happening in the Congo right now. i’m going to make some flyers for this too and hopefully start posting more about it as well.

this site is amazing! they have information as well as charities you can donate to, please donate or share!
here’s a couple other articles:
there’s also this article on how big tech companies are complicit: https://www.newsweek.com/genocide-behind-your-smart-phone-74875
we need to start also putting pressure on our representatives for this. our silence is complicity.
the video is only a couple minutes and really informative!
it’s also disgusting to see how tech companies make prices so high and even have anti repair measures. if you can, buy tech secondhand!
^ here’s some instagrams i follow that have amazing information on what’s happening in Sudan and the Congo!
additionally you can donate to:
^ both of these organizations are 501(c)(3) so if you make a donation it’s tax deductible!

For every ‘Free Congo’ item purchased, we donate directly to a globalgiving.org project dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating these children, offering them a path towards a brighter, hope-filled future.
A child is not a toy, a weapon, a tool, or clay that you can mold into whatever you want. A child is a child. A person. And deserves respect and does not deserve to be forced to die from grueling labor that adults don't want to die from. Free Congo. End child slavery.

You should be furious that people trying to escape genocide in Gaza, Sudan, Congo all need raise an absurd amount of money just to survive
You should be furious at how these people went through atrocity after atrocity and still need raise tens of thousands of dollars to get away
You should be furious at this insidious thing that completely encapsulates how capitalism feeds off of blood
About 48% of the world's cobalt reserves are in Congo, but 70% of the world's mined cobalt comes from there.
Cobalt is toxic to touch and breathe - and there are hundreds of thousands of poor Congolese people touching and breathing it day in and day out.
