Stacey Abrams has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
The nominations for the Nobel Peace prize are coming in fast and furious. A very large number of nominations get made each year, since a large number of people are eligible to make nominations.
Alan Dershowitz sent in his nomination for his pal Kushner and Kushner’s deputy Avi Berkowitz in “helping negotiate diplomatic relations between Israel and Arab nations.” Ugh!
Last week, BLM got a well-deserved nomination.
Other candidates this year include Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, Greta Thunberg, Daniel Ellsberg, U.S. Congresswoman Barbara Lee, and WikiLeaks.
The 2021 laureate will be announced in October.
Nominations can be sent by just about anyone. Well, not quite. It helps to be “a member of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, past recipient of the prize, a member of national assemblies and national governments of sovereign states, university professors, professors emeriti and associate professors of history, social sciences, law, philosophy, theology, and religion.”
Who would you nominate for the Nobel Peace Prize? Is DailyKos eligible to send nominations? Although, I think nominations are now closed for 2021.
