Screenshot of Rasha Abdulhadi quote retweet of Palestinian journalist in Gaza Anas Al-Sharif covering a airstrike. Anas original tweet reads, "This is the reality for children in Gaza: If they survive the bombs, they are often left wounded, traumatized, or buried under the rubble of their own homes. They grow up not with toys, but with the sounds of drones and airstrikes. This is not a childhood. It's a daily fight to stay alive."

No one should have to live this. Repro justice means dignity for all families, everywhere.

Ignoring, erasing, and equivocating about the genocide Palestinians are enduring is a failure of RJ's basic tenets.

Reporters would ask me what are my thoughts on protestors breaking windows or setting flags on fire and I’d say I’d rather talk about the death of Black people by the hands of police.

You don’t have to answer the question the media asks you. Tear it up and have somebody pivot. 😭

New — Here is a running list of Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) offices that have either been fully eliminated or gutted into non-functionality as a result of today's mass firings (provided to me directly by a CDC staffer):

I would like first to thank from the bottom of my heart every single individual and organization that supported me through this, particularly my fantastic legal team. Everything I have tried to do has been in service of affirming the humanity of the Palestinian people, a struggle that will leave a lasting mark on me. Today I took the decision to leave the United States, free and with my head held high. For those following this story: I decided to sue the Trump administration with the hope that it would offer reprieve for myself and other similarly situated persons. But Trump did not want me to have my day in court and sent ICE agents to my home and revoked my visa. We held out but our first motion was denied. We were due to submit a second briefing with the hope that I could stay out of detention whilst the lawsuit progressed.

For every person that has remained silent, just know that you are not safe either. Is the imprisonment of those who speak out against a genocide a reflection of your values? Is this the kind of nation you want to live in? We are already seeing the Trump administration exploiting the complicity of those who have remained silent on the Zionist genocide of Palestinians. The repression of Palestinian solidarity is now being used to wage a wholesale attack on any form of expression that challenges oppressive and exploitative relations in the US.

Given what we have seen across the United States, I have lost faith that a favourable ruling from the courts would guarantee my personal safety and ability to express my beliefs. I have lost faith I could walk the streets without being abducted. Weighing up these options, I took the decision to leave on my own terms. This is of course not the outcome I had wanted going into this, but we are facing a government that has no respect for the judiciary or for the rule of the law.

It is surreal that we live in a world where you get into trouble for saying killing babies is wrong. Where those advocating for, and celebrating, endless massacres against Palestinians are able to, time and again, present themselves as victims while presenting those fighting against genocide as the oppressors. For months on end, we've had to listen to - ad nauseam - concerns regarding the safety of Zionist students when they are the same students who dox, monitor and collaborate with law enforcement to target students of color. If you have been led to think that your safety is only guaranteed by state kidnap, repression, deportation, the slaughter of children, and the suppression of the global majority, then let Gaza's shards of glass be your mirror.

Hey Baltimore, is anyone looking for a sweet cat who has been living in the alleys but has suddenly decided he wants to be indoors?

This guy is camped out in my backyard, and I'd be happy to feed and shelter him if it wasn't abundantly clear he hopes to move inside.

I haven’t had the energy to engage in this Facebook group a ton, but from the little I’ve paid attention, people seem to get sound advice from it (and the mods seem to do a decent job keeping convos productive): www.facebook.com/share/g/15q6...

The existence of Zionism requires constant brainwashing, constant propaganda, constant lying, constant violence, constant aggression, and constant ethnic cleansing.

10 years too late!!
