Last night for our upcoming movie club night we re-watched the true story of Netflix's The Red Sea Diving Resort where a group of Israeli Mossad agents use a run down Sudanese seaside resort as a cover to transport Ethiopian refugees to Israel, their native homeland from 2700 years ago.
There's a past blog review but even on a second viewing I still welled up when the Ethiopian contact member Kabede Bimro ended the story with the following:
’When you see your brother or your sister suffering, you must not stay silent. Do not remain still. Go to their aid. Help them.’ – Kabede Bimro (The Red Sea Diving Resort)
This is the reason we must all do whatever we can to help those who suffer from racism/ are marginalized whether it be with food/home insecurity/ bullying / the myriad of societal ills.
There are presently ~80 million refugees in our world...
In this time of turmoil, may we use our energies to sow the seeds of humanity to leave this place better than we found it...
