Today my daughter's preschool is holding a farewell assembly for one of her classmates whose mother has no choice but to self deport. The school is hoping it will be joyful in tone, so we might make this less upsetting for this 3 year old.

There's just no words for the uselessness of this cruelty.

I Hassan Al-Sheikham Khalil from Gaza and this is my brother Omar who needs treatment as soon as possible. Please help me with a small donation to save my brother Omarโ€™s foot. The price of treatment is very expensive. I cannot afford the costs. The price of treatment is $500.

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other๐Ÿค

absolutely beautiful, clearly influenced by the french comic series The Ogre Gods but nonetheless amazing

goeblins always kills it because their teams are made of students who specialize in like color direction or rough animation or final lineart etc instead of doing a whole thing themselves

Just when the world thought we were safe in Gaza after the ceasefire was declared, the occupation is now committing a massacre in Gaza, with more than 70 martyrs under the rubble.

Mold is actually the perfect silent killer for fascists, especially for the men. They think cleaning in general is gay. If they can't physically see the threat they think worrying about it is also gay. Plan accordingly.

If you're somebody who values supporting marginalized voices in comics, here's your chance to put your money where your values are! 

The writer of this RINGO NOMโ€™D INDIE COMIC (and a very dear friend of mine) is a Syrian Refugee who has been through more continuous hardships than I have space to list here; constantly navigating visa applications, unstable living conditions, predatory landlords (limited options as a refugee). 

Anas just wants to make comics and live a normal life like what so many of us take for granted. Backing this campaign will help Anas to take the next step toward freedom and autonomy, helping to fund a move to another country with more stable employment options. This is truly one of the most important comics purchases you will ever make.

Middle Eastern and North African comics creators are some of the most underrepresented in the comics industry of the western world. Anas isnโ€™t running a GoFundMe to support this move, and is not asking for charity. Simply, Anas is using their talent for storytelling, along with Dennisโ€™ gorgeous art, to offer you a beautiful experience in the comics medium, that also goes toward funding a better life for Anas. 

Iโ€™m so proud of Anas, and humbled by their experiences and perseverance. I would like to see Anasโ€™ Dream realized, and Iโ€™d love to see this community help to make that happen. Please join me in pledging to the Etheres Kickstarter campaign! (link below).

The Role of Gold in the Sudanese War | ISPI The militarisation of gold resources have intensified the conflict, drawing in both local and international actors with competing interests.

(rather than quibble about the regional variation in the price of gold- particularly in the Middle East- it may be fruitful to consider where that gold is coming from [Sudan is a major source], and whether the people from those places are suffering [yes])

what legal recourse do artists and museums have against international militaries stealing and using our work to commit warcrimes, since apparently that's a conversation we need to have now.

Interesting how the Indigenous woman kidnapped from the Conscious flotilla isn't getting a fraction of the attention as white participants. Even articles aren't naming her! Her name is Mskwaasin Agnew.

NYT headline: "Rutgers Expert on Antifa Tries to Flee to Spain After Death Threats"

subheadline: "Mark Bray was teaching courses on antifascism. Turning Point USA accused him of belonging to antifa, which he denies. His flight to Spain was canceled abruptly on Wednesday night."

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope!

and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate
