Hey stayblr, I've been thinking of ways we can unite to help Palestine in the current genocide. With Israel closing borders again, no aid is allowed in and local organizations on the ground urgently need our help. So, i thought of rallying to raise donations for Palestine, big or small, as every dollar counts and can truly make a difference.
Initial target : 2000 dollars ✅
‼️ Next Target : 2500 dollars.
To be split between Care for Gaza and UNRWA.
We’ll raise the target goal according to our progress!
update as of 02/06/2024- [9:57 a.m.] : 2125,41 dollars !!
For transparency, donations will be received through my Kofi, with daily updates on our progress. Here are the links to UNRWA’s and Careforgaza’s work in Gaza!
Palestinians are saying that this is the worst phase of the genocide yet. They need as much of our help as we can give them, so please, let’s all stand together for this.
If you cannot donate
- please reblog and share around!
- stream hind’s hall (all proceeds will be donated to unrwa!
here is the receipt of our first donation to UNRWA
Jake: send a letter to algebra.
Isa: why?!
Jake: please..
Isa: ugh
Isa: dear algebra, stop telling everybody to find your x. She’s not coming back. And don’t ask me y.
Jake: you tried.
Isa: Maybe someone tried to kill me last year, failed, and i don't even know about it.
Jake: Do you even know what mitosis is?
Isa: Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.
Isa, pulling back the shower curtain:Hey, what do you want for breakfast? Jake: Privacy?
It’s been demonstrated time and again that things have only been getting worse—by Palestinians’ firsthand accounts on here, by on-site journalists, and by the harrowing coverage of all the Israeli terrorism that continues to fly under the radar of mainstream media. To underreport on this genocide is something western outlets have done since Day 1, but now they can get away with it because people are losing interest in pretending they actually care about this ongoing genocide. In reality this should be talked about now more than ever, because Israel is only amplifying its atrocities with each passing day
Jake: You don't like my gift? Isa: You're a loser if you thought I didn't like your gift. Jake: Really? Isa: I hated it.
Palestine is not over. Palestine is not dead. Gaza, the West Bank, the entire region between the river and the sea, and the various countries across the world where refugees have fled to, house a surviving people and surviving culture. Palestine is not dead, and WILL NOT die.
I'm seeing a lot of very valid despair online, but if you're someone like me, living a privileged life in a Western country NOT under active bombardment, and which is actually COMPLICIT to some degree in that bombardment: we don't get to give up. Not now, not ever.
You can still get involved in protests or direct actions (e.g. blocking supply), you can still donate eSims or fund UNRWA on your government's behalf, you can still hassle the crap out of your local MP. No, it won't roll back the harm that's already been committed, but all of those things are STILL WORTH DOING. PEOPLE ARE STILL ALIVE OVER THERE. PALESTINE IS STILL WORTH SAVING.
If you've bothered to read this far, you're probably already aware of what's going on over there right now. If not, check out Al Jazeera's fantastic coverage. But also remember that Palestine, and Palestinian culture, is more than just death and despair. Examples below:
Long live Palestine, from the river to the sea.
Kaylee: What’s an orgasm?
Kai: When you fold paper to look like birds and shit.
Jake: Isn’t that origami tho?
Isa: No, you dumb fuck, that’s oregano.
