Fasting against hate speech. It can slowly creep into societies, disenfranchising and dehumanizing targeted minorities.

Jan 11: Day 2 of my fast, day 687 of our chain.

Today in the morning was harder than expected, bad sleep combined with hunger. My brain was foggy and I couldn’t think straight. Fasting is a good reminder that you have to walk in someone’s shoes to truly understand situations and hardships you would otherwise not empathize with. And every fast is different, just like situations in life.

Jan 12: Day 3 of my fast, day 688 of our chain.

This is the last day of my fast and happens to be the 12th death anniversary of my dearest friend Kai Buchholz, who worked for the UN in Haiti when the earthquake struck and collapsed the HQ building. He is the person I most looked up to, with genuine solid principles, wit and charisma. He would have made it far. I wonder what he would do now if he was still alive. I am sure he would be upset (and fighting against) the autocratic tendencies that are spreading across the world. Rest In Peace my friend, we will fight for you and keep your spirit alive.
