Pinkwashing Palestine

The poem fragment I used here is from "Silence for Gaza" by Mahmoud Darwish (the poem is from 1973 but could have been written yesterday, I recommend you check it out). Stickers with this sort of vintage scrapbooking look seem popular right now, so I wanted to make a version for Gaza for my fundraiser. Products with this design can be found here.

As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend to help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.

Here are some product examples, again see here for all options (also shirts/hoodies have many color options besides the default if you click on them):

I have 161 designs and counting, I'm making new ones at least a few times a week so check back if you don't see anything you like yet. I'm not going to stop adding stuff until everyone my friend loves is safe. Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!

Palestine - The Land of Sad Oranges

The Jaffa orange holds a lot of symbolism for the Palestinian struggle. This varietal was developed in Palestine in the 19th century and named for the city Jaffa, where it was first produced for export. It has strong skin and few seeds, making it excellent for commercial use, so it was a major product from the region until the industry declined under British rule and disruption from WWII. Finally the establishment of Israel caused irreparable damage as groves were seized or destroyed by settlers. Israel took over production on seized land but never achieved the same success with the crop, and what remained of Palestine suffered ongoing violence and blockades preventing the industry there from further success. The Jaffa orange has remained a symbol of the Palestinian homeland, most notably in Ghassan Khanafani's short story The Land of Sad Oranges.

This orange with a Palestinian flag for a leaf can be found here on shirts, stickers, mugs and more. ALL PROCEEDS from Palestine related sales will go to my Palestinian best friend to help him bring his girlfriend over to America and to help his other loved ones around the Levant who have been/are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. All designs available here.

As always, EVERYTHING I RAISE from my shop is for my best friend to send home to support his friends and family in Gaza, the West Bank and surrounding areas of the Levant facing collateral damage. I think his family who live in Lebanon are okay at the moment at least but the situation there is obviously pretty uncertain right now. Hoping they stay safe, he has a few people who are very important to him living around Beirut.

I still haven't been able to find the definitive origin of the quote above, Pablo Neruda seems to be the most common suggestion. Would love to know if anyone knows. The two designs above are available on stickers, shirts, art prints and more in my shop HERE.

A friend recommended I add more "cute" designs to appeal to a broader audience. So, here is a little cartoon kitten in a keffiyeh:

As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from this guy are for my Palestinian best friend, to help his girlfriend afford to join him safely in America and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. You can find this design on many products (shirts, stickers, mugs, etc) here.

Also if you're looking for cute designs I would recommend my most popular work so far and its several variants, a little dove wrapped in a keffiyeh:

Palestine Designs

A selection from the things I have made these past couple weeks. My best friend is Palestinian and ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go first and foremost to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this war.

All these and a few more available here. All designs are available on multiple products (shirts, notebooks, pins, etc), the ones shown are just examples. Anything not showing up in the shop is being reviewed by Redbubble and should be up soon.

Thank you to everyone who has helped so far. This friend means a lot to me and anything to make this horrible situation a little easier for him is greatly appreciated.

I took a vintage ornamentation and turned it into a Palestinian flag for my fundraiser. The design can be found here.

As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my designs are for my Palestinian best friend to help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He has also been supporting his girlfriend staying with him here in America these past few months; she is now heading back home. The immediate area around where she is from has been fairly secure recently. We're really hoping it stays that way. It will be sad to see her go, he has been noticeably less depressed with her here. She has been a great comfort to him.

Here is the above demonstrated on a few products:
