NEW WORKSHOP!! Sabrina Imbler will teach "Writing Alongside the Nonhuman" on Sept 15, online. It is one thing to write about animals, plants, and other non-human beings, but what would it look like to write with them? 🌱🐈🌸 www.workshops4gaza.com/calendar/wri...

In May, Kordia’s legal team told reporters that she hadn’t had access to halal meals, which meant she had lost nearly 50 pounds since her arrest in mid-March.

Now, she is using her platform to bring attention to the plight of women in detention, like 32-year-old Palestinian Leqaa Kordia, the second Columbia University protester arrested this spring, who has since been dubbed “the forgotten prisoner” while sitting in ICE detention for nearly six months.

“Being detained was one of the hardest, most difficult challenges that I’ve had to face in my entire life. Physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually challenging,” Sakeik said. “I wouldn’t wish this upon anybody, not even my worst enemy.”

22-year-old Ward Sakeik, a Palestinian woman who has lived in Texas since she was 9, says her experience in federal detainment could only be identified as “human trafficking.” And she’s not staying quiet about the women she was forced to leave behind. thebarbedwire.com/2025/09/22/w...

Reclaiming lands is a multi-pronged process. Too much of Hawaii is owned by colonizer billionaires! The only acceptable amount of land in their possession or under their control is 0 square feet!

You want to read this book.

Please read the words Leqaa has written from her cell, raise your voices, donate to her legal fund, and do everything within your power to bring her home. She is a beautiful writer whose words should be uplifted and inform our actions.

Apparently this site doesn’t want you to see this post… please read, share, and circulate this petition. It is important during sentencing that the judge see that Tarek is supported by community!!!

Commissary funds are crucial to making sure Tarek can buy food, make calls, and maintain basic dignity as he remains held without bail. Legal funds - self explanatory

Leqaa Kordia is a 32-year old Palestinian woman from the West Bank who was kidnapped by ICE in March 2025 for participating in a protest at Columbia University. She is still detained at the Prairieland Detention Facility in TX, where 16 anti-ICE protestors are also being held 🧵

I had a good time at the Storytelling out of Your People and for Your People workshop that was hosted by Chantal and @workshops4gaza.bsky.social! 😄

As of now, only $12K of the necessary $250K in legal fees have been raised to free Leqaa. If prisoners are the compass of the Palestinian struggle, they should be the compass of the Palestinian solidarity struggle as well.

urgent campaign!!!!!

The 5th protester from the 2023 Gillers has *finally* had her charges dropped. The Gillers directly lobbied police to charge those protesters, and the production team behind the CBC broadcast helped police carry out the arrests. Enjoy the longlist celebrations canlitresponds.ca/boycott-giller

What does it mean to write in the role of griot or cultural worker--one who owes something to the community they come from and who writes out of that community? Chantal James (@chantalalive.blacksky.app) leads us thru this ques in "Storytelling Out of Your People and For Your People." tomorrow!

reach out to us if you or a group of you would like to run your own matching campaign for the Sameer Project's mass displacement campaign. anonymous or named, it's up to you!

Sameer Project's current goal for their mass displacement campaign is $750,000. This $2K campaign means we can collectively make a $4K dent. Support the sickest coming from hospital overflow, medical staff, aid distribution team members, and Civil Defense who risk their lives to rescue civilians.

‼️NEW MATCHING CAMPAIGN UP‼️ This time, a generous donor is offering a $2,000 match for the Sameer Project, which is operating in emergency mode, purchasing whatever provisions they can source. Limits in supply, fluctuation of prices, and commission rates at 50% are some of the obstacles they face.
