Report
from Ethiopia: The untold story with journalists Eugene Puryear &
Hermela Aregawi
Join us on Saturday, December 18th, at 6:00pm
EST for a conversation
between Eugene
Puryear and Hermela
Aregawi! This will be a unique opportunity to hear from two
journalists who have been providing unique and detailed coverage of
the conflict in Ethiopia for the last year. Puryear will have recently
returned from a trip to the Horn of Africa with BreakThrough News.
Hermela Aregawi, an Ethiopian-American of Tigrayan descent who was
formerly of CBS-Los Angeles and Al Jazeera, has been at the forefront
of an effort throughout the Ethiopian diaspora to correct the
misinformation from the mainstream media about the situation in
Tigray. Both journalists will speak on what they believe are the real
sources of the conflict and why so many have adopted the false and
one-sided presentation of the U.S. government and major media
outlets.

The Biden admin's virtual “Summit for Democracy” event,
attended by 80 world leaders, is being mocked around the world as an
exercise in utter hypocrisy. Read this Liberation News article on how the whole
conference is nothing more than a tool to attack the governments of
countries that refuse to follow the dictates of
Washington.
