This is the problem I see as well: people who share the truth, speak honestly about what is happening, and insist on showing the suffering and rights of their people often receive less support.
But I do not believe the solution is to keep asking only for help and donations. We are an educated people, and we have so much to say and offer the world. We should also show who we are, how we think, and what we are truly experiencing, rather than reducing ourselves to the image of a hungry person waiting for help.
I do not know why we sometimes act as though the only way to receive support is to keep repeating, “I am hungry, help me.” I fear that constantly presenting ourselves this way can, over time, turn a person who is simply trying to live with dignity into someone who is seen only as a beggar.
Yes, we need help, and I am not ashamed to say that. But we also need to preserve our dignity and show the world that we are so much more than our need for money.
