Today I turn 43-years-young.

I’m writing to thank you all for your continued support of my advocacy for human rights and justice. I often reflect on the journey I’ve experienced, the path that yet lies ahead, and the insurmountable work that remains, and ask, what I would tell my 23-year-old self if I could go back in time and speak with him? And how does that advice apply to 2025?

Let's Address This with Qasim Rashid

@QasimRashid

It is maybe not a very "happy" birthday in our times, but surely another milestone where you can look back onto years invested very well in serving a just cause.

Thank you for what you have done and published so far, and in advance for many, many years to come of raising your voice where you just can't keep silent, like too many others.

@QasimRashid Happy birthday Qasim! Thank you for what you do!
@QasimRashid happy birthday, birthday twin
@QasimRashid Happy Birthday Qassim. I respect your work and follow it closely, and I admire your dedication, because you go at it even though it is -as you say- unsurmountable, and you are not afraid to talk about the inflicted pain among fellow humans that is immeasurable.

@QasimRashid

Happy birthday!

If you join a Chicago protest, let me know

@QasimRashid HAPPY QASIM NEW YEAR! πŸ™πŸ»πŸŽ‚πŸΎ
@QasimRashid Happy Birthday my man. I love your posts --> please keep them coming.

@QasimRashid

Happy Birthday!

Thank you for your service. Keep up the good work. We need more.

@QasimRashid

Happy Birthday.
I turned 73 a few months ago.
What would I tell my 23 year old self?

Tell my grandfather he was right. What happened in Austria could and is close to happening here in my present/his future just like he warned me could happen.

@QasimRashid Happy birthday! Thank you for keeping up the good fight!

You're a public figure for whom there's no way to avoid it, but to everyone else:

Please, please...

Never disclose your true birthdate on any social network. Nor your photo if you can help it. They're amongst the several other most valuable ingredients for bogus identity.
