🇵🇸🇺🇸 In an interview in the early 1980s, the legendary Palestinian Columbia University Professor Edward Said expressed his pride in his campus. Today, he would likely be even prouder of the strides made.
🇵🇸🇺🇸 في مقابلة أجريت معه في أوائل الثمانينات، أعرب الأستاذ الفلسطيني الأسطوري في جامعة كولومبيا إدوارد سعيد عن اعتزازه بحرمه الجامعي. واليوم، من المرجح أن يكون أكثر فخراً بالخطوات التي حققها.

hi hello this is your reminder that google are hypocrites(and bds)
the lay offs were on the 18th this month, pretending to celebrate a native culture as you help the military that is actively ethnically cleansing them, and has been for years, is highly hypocritical and just an attempt to save face
in case someone forgot, google is on BDS' "pressure" list, which means it isn't necessary a 100% boycott but rather a target for pressuring and limiting your use of their services to push them towards cutting ties with israel
additional context on dabka:
it is a folk dance from levantine countries like lebanon, jordan, syria, and palestine. with possible origins in ancient phoenician and/or canaanite cultures

And also needs to be said: the reason why the death toll in Gaza hovers at around 32,000 people is for the same reason the death toll from Covid during the Biden Admin stays at 800,000: because they took away any capacity to continue to count the dead.

Anyone else think that this is getting ridiculous? They rather throw their own population into prison than admit that they are guilty of aiding a genocide of a native people? No wonder that I have found so many posts and comments about people being ashamed of being westerners. I hope this madness ends soon.

With the arrival of summer heat waves, Gaza's overcrowded camps for displaced Palestinians face the growing risk of epidemic and disease, the Gaza Civil Defence Agency warned on April 25.
"The suffering of displaced people in the displacement camps in the southern governorates of Gaza seems to be increasing with the intensification of heat waves,'' the agency said in a statement.
It added that this situation "forewarns of the widening spread of epidemics and diseases among them, especially among children and pregnant women."
The statement called on the World Health Organization (WHO) ''to urgently take actions to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees and find alternative places to tents amid severe heat waves in the coming days."
Gaza is experiencing a severe heat wave, with temperatures reaching around 37°C during daylight hours on Thursday.

Don't lose focus! Yes, the university campus protests are excellent, but remember WHY and WHAT they are protesting.

If any of you ever feel like what you're doing for Palestine isn't helping anything, I'll tell you right now it's helping me. I know it is fortifying all of us who have been in this fight for years to see so many people willing to speak up. It has never been like this before.
The tide has already turned. The fact that #free palestine will have new posts everyday, that helps me. It helps my mental health knowing that Palestinians are less alone now than ever.
Yesterday I read some verses from the Quran talking about how "the blame" is not with those who wish to help but cannot, but with those who CAN help and do not.
Truly I do not care if all you do for Palestine is post in that #free palestine everyday, that is still more than many people with the means to do even more would do.
We see you. We see you standing in solidarity with us and with Palestinians. We love you. Thank you.
