Here’s a quick snippet from my report on the DRC titled “Colorism: How the World Sees US.”

In it, I break down the system of anti-blackness and colorism as they relate to the lack of coverage of the DRC. 🇨🇩

Il existe une manière positive de croire en une humanité prospère, empreinte de paix et d'amour, à condition de transmettre ces valeurs à la génération actuelle, qui a tant souffert à l'Est de la République Démocratique du Congo. Ces enfants ont été témoins de nombreuses atrocités commises dans diverses zones de cette région. Aujourd'hui, il est impératif de préparer cette génération au changement et au développement durable.

There are no foreign children.
No child is “someone else’s problem.”
No little hand reaching for safety should ever be ignored because of the country they were born in, the language they speak, or the colour of their skin.

Every child belongs to all of us.
They are the heartbeat of humanity, the light we have been entrusted to protect.

The child sleeping beneath the sound of bombs is our child.
The child crossing oceans in fear is our child.
The child crying from hunger, loneliness, abandonment, or violence is our child too.
And the child laughing freely in peace and love should remind us of what every child on this earth deserves.

We cannot build a just world while children suffer in silence.
We cannot call ourselves civilised while innocence is left unprotected.
A society is not measured by its wealth, its power, or its borders - but by how gently it holds its children.

Children do not ask for much.
They ask for safety.
For kindness.
For a chance to dream without fear.
For adults who will stand between them and the darkness of this world.

May we never become so busy, so divided, or so numb that we stop hearing their voices.
Because every child carries a universe inside them - a future artist, healer, teacher, peacemaker, scientist, mother, father, dreamer.
And every time a child is broken by cruelty, war, neglect, or hatred, the whole world loses a piece of its future.

So let us love beyond borders.
Let us protect beyond politics.
Let us care beyond convenience.

Because the children of this world are not strangers to us.
They are all our children.
And history will remember whether we chose to protect them… or looked away.

Nouveaux massacres en RDC

En Ituri, l’État congolais ne contrôle plus réellement le terrain. Des milices communautaires massacrent des civils, incendient des villages et imposent leur loi, tandis que les survivants fuient par milliers.

En quelques jours seulement, plus de 69 personnes ont été tuées. Des corps abandonnés au sol, des familles décimées, et toute une province plongée dans une peur permanente. Entre la Codeco, la CRP, les ADF et d’autres groupes armés, la RDC est devenue un champ de guerre fragmenté, où les civils servent à la fois de cibles et de monnaie de pression.

Derrière les discours officiels, ce sont les armes, l’or et les rivalités ethniques qui dictent désormais le destin de l’Ituri. Le plus inquiétant, c’est peut-être la banalisation de ces massacres à l’échelle internationale.

On compte les morts, on publie des communiqués, puis tout recommence.

Pendant ce temps, des millions de déplacés survivent sans réelle protection, au cœur d’un conflit qui détruit méthodiquement l’est de la RDC.

The children of Congo are not just the future of our nation — they are part of the future of this world.

Yet when many people look at Congo, too often they only see what they can take from it. They think about minerals, profit, power, and everything they can gain from our land, while forgetting the lives of the people who live on it. And that is dangerous for our communities, dangerous for our children, dangerous for their safety, dignity, and their future.

As you see me sitting with that child, the last Friday,I remember very clearly. We arrived there early in the morning before starting cooking a warm meal for them.

The children gathered around us, and we tried to bring them a little joy. I started running with them, encouraging them to do sports, to laugh, to feel alive again even for a moment.

But something heartbreaking happened.

Some of the children were so weak from hunger that they could not continue. Two of them fell down while running. They did not stop because they were tired from playing, they stopped because famine had already taken away their strength. They were hungry. Deeply hungry.

And honestly, I wept.

I wept because no child should live like that. No child should collapse from hunger while trying to play. No child should grow up surrounded by war, fear, displacement, and abandonment while the world remains silent.

Sometimes I ask myself, how can things become more important than human beings? How can profit matter more than a child’s life? How can the riches beneath our soil receive more protection than the children walking above it?

This is part of what is happening in Congo. Behind every number, report, headline, there are real people. Real children with tears and who are suffering.

But despite everything, I still believe hope is possible. I believe compassion is possible. I believe humanity can still choose people over greed, peace over violence, and love over indifference.

Congo does not need pity, it needs justice, peace... And above all, Congolese children need a chance to live, dream, learn, and smile again.

They think about minerals, profit, power, and everything they can gain from our land, while forgetting the lives of the people who live on it. And that is dangerous for our communities, dangerous for our children, dangerous for their safety, dignity, and their future.

As you see me sitting with that child, the last Friday,I remember very clearly. We arrived there early in the morning before starting cooking a warm meal for them.

The children gathered around us, and we tried to bring them a little joy. I started running with them, encouraging them to do sports, to laugh, to feel alive again even for a moment.

But something heartbreaking happened.

Some of the children were so weak from hunger that they could not continue. Two of them fell down while running. They did not stop because they were tired from playing, they stopped because famine had already taken away their strength. They were hungry. Deeply hungry.

And honestly, I wept.

I wept because no child should live like that. No child should collapse from hunger while trying to play. No child should grow up surrounded by war, fear, displacement, and abandonment while the world remains silent.

Sometimes I ask myself, how can things become more important than human beings? How can profit matter more than a child’s life? How can the riches beneath our soil receive more protection than the children walking above it?

This is part of what is happening in Congo. Behind every number, report, headline, there are real people. Real children with tears and who are suffering.

But despite everything, I still believe hope is possible. I believe compassion is possible. I believe humanity can still choose people over greed, peace over violence, and love over indifference.

Congo does not need pity, it needs justice, peace... And above all, Congolese children need a chance to live, dream, learn, and smile again.

You sold the world a bright future. Retina display. All-day battery. Innovation.

But behind every @apple . there is a child’s hand.
A 10-year-old hand scraping the red earth of Kivu.
A hand that bleeds to dig out the cobalt for your battery.
A hand that will never hold a pen, because it held a pickaxe too soon.

You call it a “supply chain.”
We call it open-air graves.

In Kolwezi. In Likasi. In Rubaya.
In your “mining sites,” children go 30 meters underground. No helmet. No future.
They breathe cobalt dust so your phones can breathe intelligence.
They die in cave-ins so your stock can climb.

What is the price of a battery?
For you: 109 dollars.
For us: a childhood. A spine twisted at 14. Burned lungs. An empty classroom.

You say “we audit our suppliers.”
But an audit doesn’t bring back a dead child.
An audit doesn’t give back stolen years.
An audit doesn’t tell a mother why her 12-year-old son is buried with cobalt under his nails.

You built the future.
By stealing the future of Congolese children.

Every time your logo lights up, a dawn goes out in Congo.
Every update you launch is a childhood you failed to update.
You connected the world.
By disconnecting our children from their right to live, to learn, to dream.

We are not asking for charity.
We are asking for accountability.
We are asking you to look at these hands.
And tell us if your “future” is worth ours.

The cobalt is in your phones.
The blood is on your hands.
The future was in our children.
You took it. #freecongo #guerre #justiceforcongo #rdc #viralvideochallenge

Did you know over 200,000 Congolese children are deprived of an education and forced into child labour to find, wash and transport minerals? Some die in Mine collapses and lose one or both parents in the mines and/or conflict?

In conversation with journalist @akilimalichoma_ in Kinshasa who gives a troubling and heartbreaking account of how children in Congo are exploited.
