The chapter shows that, on the contrary, globalization is the result of reproduction and objectification of original production relations.

Raila Odinga was like the elephant in a dark room.Each of us touched a part of him;a leg and thought him a tree, a side and thought him a wall, a trunk and thought him a hose, a tail and thought him a whip.Only now, with the light on, and him resting with the ancestors do we see the enormity of who he was — good, flawed, immense, divisive and deliberative. An indelible part of 🇰🇪 journey.

This is not business as usual. My new UN report, From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide, is out today. It shows how corporations have fueled and legitimised the destruction of Palestine. Genocide, it would seem, is profitable. This cannot continue, accountability must follow. ohchr.org/sites/default/file… #EconomyofOccupation #EconomyofGenocide
