A community update regarding Festival for Falastin:
Hello all!
It has been many months since our beautiful Festival for Falastin event. It was a huge success, but we had some troubles getting donations to one of our contacts, and wanted to update our community on the outcome.
Thank you to our volunteers who made this night possible. Thank you to Cathy Stoyko and The Abbey Studio for the perfect space.
And of course, a big thank you to you! Eternally grateful for this community ❤️🇵🇸

Wow-- what a beautiful evening of music and community. Together we raised $800 for Sara Kashawi's legal funds, to aid in her fight for freedom of speech.
A huge thank you to @davidrovics.bsky.social and @hawa.levantgarde for the beautiful musical journey.
It’s clear - the @davidebybc.bsky.social is an active participant in the normalization of genocide. The @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social consistently refuses to ban Israeli wine.
Terroir (french for 𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑑) is a term used by wine enthusiasts to describe how a wine expresses its unique taste - defined by the soil, climate, and human activity of a region.
