Tes reminds people the insurmountable odds Eritrea faced to win her independence:

- Italy colonized us
- Britain sold our resources for their own profits
- The UN turned their backs on us
- The United States, Soviet Union and Israeli supplied Ethiopia weapons to defeat us

Us against the world, and we still won. Happy 27th Independence Day, Eritrea pic.twitter.com/wtQwOS9XXc

Happy 27th Independence Day Eritrea! Against all odds, through great determination, Eritreans endured a 30 year armed struggle to see Independence in May of 1991. I will forever be proud of where I come from. Elelelelelelelelelel! 🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷 pic.twitter.com/1hTBHcuxdq

May 24, 1991: 27 yrs ago, #Eritrea became independent. Eritrean-Americans like me, born into the struggle, saw ourselves in the quest for independence. Still proud. Happy Independence Day, Eritrea! 🇪🇷✊🏾❤ #AwetNHafash #Diaspora #Eri52491

My family in #Eritrea sent me this lovely dress. Today, I’m thinking about my fam & friends celebrating #EritreanIndependenceDay.

For #Eritrea every year that we celebrate independence has been victory. Eritrea was not supposed to exist let alone thrive. All I can say is it is good to be underestimated. Most definitely it is a blessing to be Eritrean! Awet N Hafash https://t.co/medlJbmYpC

An Ethiopian with confidence and sincerity! You can read her entire tweets on Eritrea's Independence Day anniversary here:  https://twitter.com/omgitsARY/status/999733558641127425

People of Eritrea deserve to celebrate this day as it holds heavy meaning. If I wanna celebrate too, my god given right. People who raised me, people who fed me, people who saved me are Eritrean. You saying we are all one people can be offensive. Don’t do it.
