If someone with a lot of followers can be a dedicated sharer, this is what Link was doing and it helped a lot. Most of my followers are Palestinians; I do not have reach outside people themselves needing help

Please share for these six families 🙏🏾 They’re still losing martyrs due to the occupation’s ongoing violations of the ceasefire. They’re still at risk of starving to death, including a pregnant mom who needs every ounce of nutrition.

So we still stand by them. Won’t you?

absolutely no one, and especially no Palestinian person, should be incarcerated for protesting against the zionist-amerikan genocide.

Maybe the fire ceased, but the trauma didn't.

Entire families are torn up, Tens of Thousands of fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters were KILLED in Israeli airstrikes.

We will never forget and we will never forgive.

And now it's time to pressure our governments - LET journalists INSIDE Gaza!

Haaretz article: "Israel Must Let International Journalists Into Gaza: Our Call as Foregin Press Assocation Members, Israel must lift this unprecedented media blockade immediately. If the israeli government does not act, we urge Israel's Supreme Court to urgently grant our request

The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

Ok well the occupation has destroyed over 90% of buildings and Mohamed’s parents needed a new tent like two weeks ago. I trust you understand that we have yet to succeed in getting this for them and why that is urgent.

A pink banner titled “Keep hope alive: a Gaza giving circle,” with the text: “We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. More than ever, they need our sustainable support.” On the right is an ink sketch of a crouching falcon, below which says “click weekly to join: https://tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle,” underlined with green colored pencil. The background has a watercolor effect.

The same core legends always share and personally I’ve maxed out every friend & family member! I have donated every paycheck for months. It’s a statistics game to reach people who can give.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

19 hours left ⚠️ I want to emphasize how obvious it is that survival funds—any of them—only get attention when the “right” kind of news hits western audiences. Palestinians have to suffer correctly for us to care about their lives? Do I have that right?

I just don’t care if this is “shaming.” 7/879
