Just a few short weeks ago, on May 15, nearly 50 preschool children were kidnapped by gunmen from schools in Northeastern Nigeria. That same day, gunmen attacked three schools in the Oriire district and abducted 46 people: 39 students, aged 2 to 16, and seven teachers. The attackers reportedly planted improvised explosive devices to deter any rescuers. These attacks bear the hallmark of Boko Haram, the same group that kidnapped hundreds of schoolgirls in Chibok in 2014.

Several weeks have passed, and much of the world has said nothing. While teachers in Nigeria are going on strike in protest, there’s been no outrage, no mass demonstrations, no universities erupting in protest, no nonstop social media posts, no “Bring Back our Children” slogans like in 2014.
