After two years of war and horrendous atrocities, the Tigrayan People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) and Ethiopian government have reached a settlement, including that the TPLF will disarm within 30 days and recognize that the government is legitimate. The TPLF has stolen huge amounts of aid for Ethiopia, broken two unilateral ceasefires, and attempted to divide and conquer using ethnic disputes in the region – all supported by the United States. Hermela Aregawi, Ethiopian-American journalist of Tigrayan descent & organizer with #NoMore Movement, sheds light on what this settlement means now and in the coming days.
BreakThrough News is building the media arm of the movement. We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities — because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.
Think to yourself, is this article something that would be published anywhere other than BreakThrough?
Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape — controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.
Working-class people deserve better, we deserve media for and by us. We are not funded by billionaires or corporations – we are funded by you. Without you, BreakThrough would not be possible, so become a member and build the media arm of the movement with us.
