Caption: World leaders and states need to be courageous enough to buck the trend of ignoring human rights. We must all do everything in our power to disrupt the expansion of authoritarian practices. Leaders won’t hold themselves accountable. People will. Our State of the World’s Human Rights’ report is out now. Link in bio.

Caption: Even the best player on Earth can’t outrun the simple fact that the beautiful game has an ugly truth: The #FIFAWorldCup is taking place in a landscape where ICE agents have killed migrants, protesters and observers — in 2025 alone, deported over 500,000 people — more than six times the number of people who will watch the World Cup final in person next month. Despite this, #FIFA has yet to ask President Trump to halt cruel #ICE raids during the #WorldCup. Enough is enough. Humanity must win – call on FIFA President Gianni Infantino and host country authorities to: 1) respect peaceful protest, 2) end mass detentions and deportations, 3) protect everyone from discrimination. Stop the World Cup from turning into a festival of fear. The World Cup belongs to us all. Take action via link in bio.

Caption: Every four years, billions of people speak the same language: football. Radically different cultures. One shared spectacle. It doesn’t matter if you’re Brazil or Haiti, what you look like or who you love. The #WorldCup brings people together like no other event. That is what football is. That is what humanity can be. Yet that shared dream is under threat. As the tournament approaches, authorities in the USA, Mexico, and Canada continue to target immigrants, restrict protest, and push already marginalized communities out of sight. What should be a global celebration risks becoming a festival of fear. Fear or Freedom. Division or Unity. Cruelty or Humanity. We are making our choice. We choose to resist. Humanity Must Win.

Caption: Dangerous policing tactics in Greece have turned protests into battlefields. New Amnesty research shows police using stun grenades, which are dangerous, military-grade devices, have caused serious injuries and severe trauma. Stun grenades are a global threat to the right to protest and should not be used to police them.

Caption: On this day in 1989, thousands of students, workers, and others filled Tiananmen Square, in the heart of Beijing. They gave speeches. They danced. They demanded freedom, and a say in their own future. Instead of listening, the Chinese government responded with tanks and bullets, with disappearances and denials. The iconic images from that summer inspired people around the world. As the years went on, seeking the truth about Tiananmen - or commemorating what happened there - became dangerous. Even ”criminal”. But people still remembered. Today, we remember June 4 - those who lost their lives, and those who devoted their lives to seeking truth and justice. Join us. Light a candle. Stand with them.

Caption: After a decade in arbitrary detention, Ahmed Douma has been sentenced for another year on ‘false news’ charges. His crime? Publishing an article about the impact of unjust imprisonment on state stability, and a social media post that criticized detention conditions. This was politically motivated. Egyptian authorities must release Ahmed and put an end to their misuse of the criminal justice system against him.

Caption: Amnesty International has today added its name to a complaint filed against FedEx Belgium alleging the unlawful transit of arms through Belgium without so much as a lawful licence, including parts for F-35 fighter jets which have been used extensively by Israel during its ongoing genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. FedEx has a responsibility regarding the impact of its activities on human rights.

Caption: Fatema Uzgun Nusrat runs an online school called The Behdukht Academy for girls in Afghanistan. Today Afghanistan remains the only country in the world that bans secondary education for girls and women. In the Behdukht Academy security is very strict, even students themselves don’t know one another’s names. But demand is high and the academy is going from strength to strength. Read her story.

Caption: The Russian authorities are denying children their right to quality education by using propaganda-filled textbooks and lectures to indoctrinate children and justify Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, while suppressing free expression, independent thinking and access to information.

Caption: While Pride is often perceived as a celebration, it originally began as a riot against police brutality at the Stonewall Inn in New York City. On 28 June 1969, the Stonewall Inn was raided by the police, as it had been on many occasions before, due to laws which required a ‘man’ or a ‘woman’ to be wearing clothing items which ‘matched’ their gender on their state-issued ID. As the LGBTI community in the Stonewall Inn, primarily led by trans women of colour, fought back, police brutality increased amid six days of riots which was a galvanizing force for LGBTI activism in the USA. In many states around the world, Pride is still centrally and most importantly a protest which highlights, commemorates, and fights for the rights of LGBTI people. No matter who you are, love is a human right.

Caption: Everyone should watch this speech. "The irony of accepting an award for covering a genocide in the very country that enables that genocide should not be lost." AJ Faultlines documentary, Kids Under Fire, won "Outstanding War or Violence Conflict Coverage" at the 2026 News #Emmys in New York City yesterday. Josh Rushing dedicated the award to journalists killed by Israeli forces.
