Today I was meant to join Rabbis for Human Rights for their end-of-harvest event in the occupied West Bank. We were supposed to support Palestinian farmers in selling their goods and securing a bit of their livelihood that is constantly under threat. 🧵🧵

I'm saddened to learn that Irish poet Mary Guckian passed away in September. She had been ill and we were in touch by phone and text over the summer. She wrote beautifully about life and her childhood home in Leitrim. Here she is in her younger years.

It is not an exaggeration to say that we should be acting on the climate crisis on the same scale that we would a war. It will cause that kind of damage. Instead, we’re treating it as if it’s a Tidy Towns competition.

Today we harvested many olive trees in Ramallah. Wothout Israeli and international volunteers, the Palestinian farmers are prohibited from harvesting their own orchards. This is their livelihood, and we stand in solidarity with them.
