In Palestine, journalistic integrity isn't derived from AP or the New York Times. It is grounded in the faithfulness of Palestinian journalists to their people and to the truth of their reality. That is why Israel is killing them.

New essay by @hamayel.bsky.social salvage.zone/the-anxiety-... go give it a read 📚

The Anxiety of Liberation - Salvage

The real and tangible feeling that Israel is defeatable comes with an endless stream of possible regret for choices made under the stress of an existing and seemingly all powerful order.

Zohran Mamdani's victory over Andrew Cuomo is a historic turning point for Palestine in U.S. politics. It reflects a growing fatigue with Israel’s role in American life and the slow implosion of Zionism under the weight of its own excess.

The recent ceasefire celebrations with Hamas fighters in the heart of Gaza City exposed Israel’s military failures, and also showed how Palestinian joy is a direct affront to the petty gods who seek t...

One of my favorite quotes from a speech he did too, is, “theory with no practice, ain’t shit.” And I think about it often, especially in the spaces I’m in “professionally” There’s a lot of people who do theory, but no practice 👀 I can usually spot them, and I don’t trust them 🐷

Hampton was a central target of the FBI’s COINTELPRO programme, which resulted in him being drugged by an FBI operative, then shot in the shoulder while he was asleep, then shot twice more in the head at point-blank range by Chicago police during an FBI raid in 1969. He was only 21 years old.
