After addressing the @kickstarterunited.org picket line on Monday (a goddamn honor), I then backed the hell out of this. Join me won't you?

my hands are shaking with rage and grief. i shouldn't have to do this. the edited text on this image should not exist. this should not still be happening in 2025

a panel from my entry in Samidoon. it is sepia tone of a palestinan family walking. the caption reads "in 2024, the images from inside Gaza echo my family's storie from Palestine. the walk away from our tattered homes looks the same as 50 years ago." the 2024 is crossed out witht 2025 written next to it. my hands are shaking with rage and grief as i type
