Do I have a follower who speaks Lithuanian and could explain to me the connotations associated with "Maskolija" ?

Boosts are appreciated 😘

I was easily able to change the small picture, but can anyone help me understand how to change the ā€˜big’ picture? All answers (practical and existential) are welcome. #fediverse #mastodon
Wishing my new #mastodon family a very happy new year! So grateful for thos #peaceful space.

Happy #Saturday!
ā€œWe must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must—at that moment—become the center of the universe.ā€ā€”Elie Wiesel

Dear white people:

Whenever you see someone who is #BIPOC speak up about the lack of #diversity on Mastodon... You don't need to give your opinion, you don't need to correct them about their own experience, you don't need to highlight the wonders of the fediverse. Just don't.

Instead, please listen to what they say, and remember that reach here is mediated by boosts, so instead of telling them to invite more people over—or to become Mastodon leaders of their community...

... Just boost them

Make a conscious effort to follow people who are #BIPOC and boost their posts.

Boost posts by non-white marginalized communities so you can help their voices reach farther.
