Roma Lama, 52, usually cooks alone, but she definitely isn’t cooking for one. She often gets homesick, she said, but cooking and eating Ethiopian food helps her feel connected. On a Saturday in November, Lama was buzzing around her kitchen, cooking and putting the various dishes into serving bowls. They sat in the living room and talked with Lama and her 15-year-old daughter, Arsema. An hour or so later, a few more of her friends, from Ethiopia, dropped by with their children.

The East African Rift formed in the southern end of the Great Rift Valley, which stretches from Lebanon in the north to Mozambique in the south, on the boundary of three tectonic plates: the African Nubian, African Somali, and Arabian. The three plates are separating at varying rates: the Nubian African Plate, the Somalian African Plate, and the Arabian Plate. This creates a rift valley, which is a lowland area formed when Earth’s tectonic plates separate, or rift. Rift valleys are distinct from river valleys and glacial valleys in that they are formed by tectonic action rather than erosion, reports National Geographic. Yet, in eastern Africa, the Somali plate is also separating from the Nubian plate, tearing apart along the East African Rift Valley, which runs through Ethiopia and Kenya.

If Getachew’s nomination is approved by the federal government, he would replace TPLF leader Debretsion Gebremichael, who has led Tigray since 2018. It is not clear when the federal government might weigh in on Getachew’s nomination or when the interim administration will be set up. The lack of an interim government has been hampering the humanitarian response across Tigray, where millions are in dire need of assistance, according to aid workers. During that visit, Blinken discussed with Getachew and Ethiopian officials the importance of setting up the interim administration.

Photo: YouTubeAs mainstream U.S. media outlets pause to remember the U.S. invasion of Iraq, it’s clear that there’s a lot they hope we’ll forget – first and foremost, the media’s own active complicity in whipping up public support for the war. Of these 267 guests, an astounding 75 percent were current or former government or military officials, and a grand total of one expressed any skepticism. Meanwhile, in the fast-growing world of cable news, Fox News’s tough-talking, pro-war jingoism was setting the standard for ratings-wary executives at most of the more “liberal” cable networks. At MSNBC, as the Iraq invasion approached in early 2003, network executives decided to fire Phil Donahue even though his show had the highest ratings on the channel. "Memory is a strategic resource in any country, especially the memory of wars,” the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Viet Thanh Nguyen has written.
