Human Rights First

From Brian Dooley, a review of Do Not Split, a new film that "shows what it looked like, felt like, smelled like, and tasted like to be in the middle of a large-scale street confrontation with Hong Kong’s police." Police, protesters, pedestrians, journalists, human rights monitors, and rubberneckers mingle together in this epic drama already short-listed for the Oscars. https://www.humanrightsfirst.org//do-not-split-illuminatin

#NEW: American withdrawal from Afghanistan poses significant risks to the human rights of Afghan civilians & allies. The U.S. government must ensure that the human rights of all Afghans are respected and protected, including rapidly meeting its obligations to Afghan allies in need of U.S. #refugee protection. https://www.humanrightsfirst.org//human-rights-first-calls

The asylum case backlog is where bureaucracy meets human suffering. Although U.S. law requires the government to conduct asylum interviews within 45 days of filing, many asylum seekers have waited years. Learn more: bit.ly/ProtectionPostponed... #HumanizingTheBacklog #EndRefugeeLimbo
