Fatima al-Fihri (early 9th century CE) was a visionary Muslim woman and educational pioneer who founded the University of al-Qarawiyyin in Fez, Morocco, in 859 CE. This institution is recognized by UNESCO and the Guinness World Records as the oldest continuously operating degree-granting university in the world. Born into a wealthy and educated family that had migrated from Tunisia, Fatima inherited her father's fortune and chose to invest it in creating a center for religious and academic learning. She personally oversaw the university’s construction, designing it as a space for advanced study in subjects such as theology, law, mathematics, astronomy, and languages. Her remarkable contribution not only advanced Islamic scholarship but also established a lasting legacy of education and inclusion, with the university eventually open to students of all backgrounds and faiths.

Over 120 people have been hospitalized due to measles in Utah alone. "It is, at this time a real threat in our state and something we can do to stop it," said Dr. Leisha Nolen, state epidemiologist… pleading for people to get themselves and their children vaccinated.” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

BONDI SUBPOENAED! ⚖️🚨
The House Oversight Committee just served AG Pam Bondi over the Epstein cover-up. 48,000 files were scrubbed to protect Trump, but even Republicans are voting to force her to testify. The redactions didn’t work!

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
