Not saying this simply to flatter @zigzackly.bsky.social, as our very first @globalvoices.org Summit t-shirt was manufactured in his home country (where the Summit was also held), but in my view we've never had a Summit shirt of better quality.
Happy 20th, @globalvoices.org! More than a newsroomβa movement. Help us grow louder, bolder, and more connected.

The fact that I believe I could never bring myself to inflict a single song on viewing audiences just because I paid for it, is probably directly related to the fact that I don't have $35k to blow on such an initiative.
Just got mine.

Thank you, Emma--and the same to you and yours!
