A Day for Gaza Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.

When this level of suffering at the hands of complicit nations continue, there's no reason to stop news coverage. Thank you to The Nation for making a point to do so. www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Keep Talking About Gaza at Your Thanksgiving Table Why we need to keep pushing for the end of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, even if that means an uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner.

The so-called ceasefire might seem like a good excuse to bury the hatchet and enjoy a quieter family dinner, but it’s not.

VOICES FOR GAZA brought together Palestinian writers, activists, & their allies. Before hundreds, the speakers demonstrated one of the most important values that can sustain us in a time of seemingly unending mourning, resistance, and struggle: solidarity. In this post, we hear from Mosab Abu Toha.

Yale lab reports mass killings in Sudan, calls for student activism The Humanitarian Research Lab was told this week that over 10,000 people in Sudan were killed within three days.

The ongoing war in Sudan, which broke out in April 2023, has killed over 150,000 civilians and displaced 14 million people, according to the BBC.

Thanks to the work of Yale School of Public Health's Humanitarian Lab, there's evidence we can track.

The Italian people made us smile in Gaza The mass mobilisation for Palestine across Italy echoed in Gaza. We are truly grateful.

The world could do so much more. At least we have the people of Italy.

This profound work brings us back to our humanity. "This is an under-appreciated form of state crime in Gaza. While most news networks and academic studies discuss crimes against the living, I document Israel’s invisible crimes against the dead and the unborn."

‘I had a home, apartment, career’ … the Guardian’s Gaza diarist on the life he lost – and his journey into exile The anonymous writer has seen horror after horror in the 21 months since he was driven from his home in Gaza City. How has he kept going? And does he have any hope left?

"I ask who he hates. 'Believe it or not, I don’t hate anyone,' he says. 'It is not my nature, hating people.'

Seeking bulldozer drivers to demolish Gaza: how a genocide is being outsourced | Arwa Mahdawi The systematic destruction of Gaza is hardly a secret. Now, the IDF is posting Facebook ads for bulldozer operators to help demolish the strip

The New Dark Age The genocide in Gaza is not an anomaly. It illustrates something fundamental about human nature and is a terrifying harbinger of where the world is headed.

Politicians want to normalise what’s happening in Gaza. Our moral outrage won’t let that happen | Nesrine Malik The more shocking the carnage becomes, the more people are punished for speaking out. This just makes it clear how much is really at stake, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

‘The demand is that to be safe from persecution, you must pluck out your eyes. Instead of ejecting Gaza from domestic politics, Israel’s allies have brought the war home.’

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

America Needs a New Free Speech Movement Donald Trump is showing us what an unaccountable class of corporate decision-makers looks like—and it looks like a lot of fear, and a terrible loss of freedom.

In this @thenation.com op-ed, Fordham Law Professor Zephyr Teachout outlines how the groundwork has been laid for a new Free Speech Movement under President Donald Trump's second term.

Opinion | America Is Aggravating the World’s Worst Humanitarian Crisis Our silence about Sudan and the cancellation of U.S. aid comes painfully close to complicity.

We can't become numb to genocide - anywhere.

Nicholas Kristof: "I suspect that many Americans regard all this is sad but inevitable, viewing Sudan as a bottomless pit of pain that we can’t do anything about. Yet that’s not quite right."

Imagine if all those who are silent about the terrible evil being committed in Gaza spoke up | Owen Jones No crime in history has been so well documented by its victims. And yet inaction and censorship reign, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

In every atrocity in history, the silent are always principal players.

Those who remain silent over Israel's genocide are enabling it to continue.

Their cowardice is paid in the blood of thousands of innocent Palestinians.
