Anyway if nothing else matters then I hope people remember that Pope Francis used his last public address to call for a ceasefire in Gaza and call Israel a terrorist state:
"I continue to receive very serious and painful news from Gaza. Unarmed civilians are subjected to bombings and shootings. It is terrorism."
at the Washington DC pro-Palestine protest (NOT Hands Off) today they unraveled a list of all Palestinians murdered in the last year and a half. Brian Becker and Eugene Puryear spoke and tied absolutely everything we are going through right now back to the devastating effects that imperialism and capitalism have on all of us.
this is what should be happening. there needs to be a unifying message and a cause to rally behind that involves actually changing the way things exist today, not restoring this country back to the ways that lead us here to begin with. this is not purity testing. this is the type of anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movement that is necessary in the current moment and anything else is a waste of precious time.
this is a list of campaign's i have been personally sent to help share & donate to, every one i have included here has been vetted by palestinian tumblr users. i cannot personally verify fundraisers, so everyone i have included has already been verified. please take the time to donate to one of your choice & reblog this post.

Christians- if you are spreading the idea that the current Palestinian Genocide is a sign of the end times you are actively partaking in Zionism and aiding to justify the genocide of Palestinians. The largest zionist organisation in the US is a Christian Zionist group.
This war is not about us. This is not a sign of the second coming of Christ. We do not need to make every conflict about us in some way. We are called to peace and selfless love by Christ, so do so. Do not get pulled away by your fantasies for a second coming of Christ. Instead, help protect the innocent civilians being harmed.
Quando ciò che trovi meraviglioso diventa parte di te
I read hers and her brother story when I was in middle school. I cried, till I had no more tears.
During that time we also had class discussions, homework, personal studies and thesis on books like “The White Rose” ( a book about Sophie and Christofer School and their movement, wrote by their family ), “A Bag full of Marbles” (the autobiography of a French Jewish kid escaping the nazi persecution), “If this is a Man” (the autobiography of a Italian Jewish man slaving in a concentration camp) and so many others.
Little me red this books so many times, striving to be the person that would have helped in those moments, believing that all the adults had also learned this lesson and that collectively we were striving for a better, more united future. All of that, NEVER AGAIN.
But now I see all of these people, those ““adults”” whom should know better, being the worst possibile insults to humanity I have ever seen.
But I still strive to be the person that will help. The one that will help student protest, that will help children despite different backgrounds, that will help men and women who are persecuted.
And they will never take this from me. Because I learned. Because I see.
And because I promise myself that it would never happen again.
Her beautiful, extraordinary diary is available on Internet Archive. It was a transformative read for me, and her legacy has inspired my activism so much. Reading it, you can't help but be stunned by the brilliance and ferocity of her mind, and moved by the photos of her and her friends, all so earnest and wise beyond their years.
website is still a work in progress but this link directs to the list of vetted fundraisers!!
Hello, I'm Ola, a graduate student from the faculty of science - Al-Azhar University in Gaza Palestine. I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story. As you reading my message, myself and my family, “my mother, father, three sisters, and my little brother,” are fighting death in northern Gaza and trying to survive under all kinds of suffering including but not limited to destruction, fear, and instability, starvation, thirst, and poverty.
For nine months until now, we have been struggling to get proper food after prices increased by 15 to 20 times, struggling to have clean water for use and drinking. We lacked security and stability as we were forced to evacuate our house and left everything behind. Then we had to move at least three times since every new area we seek refuge to gets bombed.
I sincerely hope you can empathize with our dire situation and consider supporting us. You can follow me to make sure I am not a scammer and to inquire about any details. Your generosity has the power to make a significant difference.
Please reblog my post, follow me and boost my posts, and repost the link to our campaign across all your social media.
Thank you for standing by me ❤️.
Please donate and/or replog 🥺🙏🇵🇸
