I remember when my high school history teacher once said (a long time ago, I'm old) that the US bombed and destroyed sites [some not even fully explored] of Ancient Mesopotamia (which is now mostly centred around modern-day Iraq), and that everything they did/were doing is unconscionable. For those who don't know Ancient Mesopotamia is considered to be the birthplace of writing, is where the world's first cities were developed (among many other things, of course). I couldn't help but think of this, and it's just frustrating and heartbreaking to see.
These violent imperialistic and settler regimes have nothing but erasure and obliteration of communities in their minds because that is what they want -to eradicate and dehumanize the spaces they are invading/striking. There is NEVER a coincidence of doing something as heinous as this. These spaces are sacred and important parts of civilizations in so many ways. Mercilessly bombing, bulldozing through, and breaking them down speaks volumes about the aggressors. The IOF must be stopped. The occupation must end.
You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.
There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.
Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.
PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.
Adults and children alike are currently dying in Palestine due to starvation. (World Health Organization Link)
The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.
So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸
here’s a small list of some of the Gaza family fundraisers and their Instagrams I’ve stumbled into- will probably update this post in a reblog at some point since there’s a LOT, but for now PLEASE make sure to follow groups like Operation Olive Branch and Project Watermelon, some people who are definitely way more competent than me at helping and amplifying these families and their fundraisers. also if you find any creators in general who spread fundraisers like this I highly encourage you follow them
(I can’t get the links to link right so please just… copy n paste for now 😭)
Palestinian activists get their message across on Londons iconic Tower Bridge landmark- one of the cities most historic buildings. We need a ceasefire now.
For Eid, Hussam hired some entertainers and bought some chocolate, biscuits, and flavored milk to put into a goodie bag to help bring a bit of joy to Rafah camp children.
He managed to put together 200 goodie bags for the kids, which you can see being put together in the video! After that, they gathered all the children to enjoy a celebration with music and dancing while also hiring entertainers to help them out.
The kids loved it! Thanks to your donations, you helped put a smile on these children’s faces, yet again!
[ID: First part of video is of people putting together goodie bags. Second part is various shots of the Eid celebration while they sing songs and a clown helps entertain the kids. At the end they distribute the goodie bags.]
