Boycott the UAE and end the genocide in Sudan www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/10...

More than 460 people were reportedly killed in a North Darfur hospital that was overrun by Sudanese paramilitary forces, the WHO said

The one call to action people could amplify is a trade and arms embargo on the UAE until they stop arming and supporting the RSF. The UAE is one of Canada and the US’ biggest trading partners in the MENA region. #KeepEyesOnSudan #KeepEyesOnDarfur

Growing up, my mother worked full time providing care for the elderly and her wages were not enough to house us or feed us. We survived because of section 8 housing benefits and food stamps. We thrived because we were lucky enough to attend good public schools in our small town...

Israel never ceases fire. And even if it did, it would still be carrying out military occupation, apartheid, mass arrests, land theft & more. Boycott Israel. Divest from Israel. Sanction Israel. Genocide is an active project & we are complicit. Action is the only way forward

Fight for the state to do better everyday AND do better everyday. WE are the only care we can rely on, they will never be built for us. They will never do the right thing. SNAP being cut is an invitation to do the work if you’re not already. The time has always been now!

Close the Broadview abduction facility and abolish ICE www.caarpr.org/irwc

The beloved Saleh Al-Jafarawi has been murdered. We are absolutely devastated. For 2 years he reported on the genocide of his people, just for him to be murdered during the ‘ceasefire’

The deployment of tear gas throughout the Chicago area is a growing health concern. ICE is deploying tear gas in residential neighborhoods, near children, playgrounds, stores, etc. What are the health implications on our communities?

an Indigenous Peoples Day reminder that borders are bullshit and every Indigenous person from across the Americas deserves to be in the US more than every person of European origin fuck borders, fuck ICE, land back.

Holy shit, what????

Congratulations @genni.bsky.social on winning the #2025IgnyteAwards in Outstanding Creative Nonfiction for AFRO-CENTERED FUTURISMS IN OUR SPECULATIVE FICTION

It's heartening to see THYME TRAVELLERS win an Ignyte Award ✨❤️ I was honored to contribute a queer, mystical short story to this anthology alongside many incredible Palestinian speculative fiction writers I deeply admire, edited by @soniasulaiman.bsky.social in all her brilliance 🌿

I don’t know what to say except that the Ignytes mean so much to me, are so important for the community. I’m incredibly honoured to say this is my first win, and a win for all the contributors. Thank you all! 🍉

I didn’t know what to say before, with Thyme Travellers winning just now. All I have to say is please continue to support Palestinians loudly and without apology. So much love to you all!

If you don’t see the link between ICE and the IDF, you haven’t been paying attention. We are being asked to accept a world where whole communities are made disposable and marked for disappearance. If we accept that for anyone, no one is safe anywhere.

ICE hit our area hard again today. I spent the morning and afternoon on patrol, and then came home for Understory, the emotional and spiritual support group for activists I co-facilitate. @tanuja.bsky.social was going to cover for me, but I decided I needed to be there, for my sake. I was right.

Seeing pictures of an abandoned tamale cart in Pilsen where ICE took a tamale street vendor. Those photos of left behind carts are so haunting. Community members disappeared. Not just vendors but people who have long standing relationships with the community and people.

2 years of genocide. I mourn the dead, and I mourn the living. None of us will ever be the same, none of us should ever be the same.

Happy pub day to LETTERS FROM A LIVING UTOPIA!! @yaffasutopia.bsky.social www.commonnotions.org/letters-from-a-living-utopia

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Massacres are currently unfolding in northern Gaza and in eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City, such as Zaytoun, Sabra, and Shuja’iyya, yet there are no journalists on the ground and no media coverage from these areas.

I don't think people are concerned enough about the fact that the majority of people in the world have objected to this genocide for nearly 2 years and nobody in power cares one bit. They're conditioning us to do what we're told. This isn't just about Palestinians. Just wait until the next pandemic

I feel like I’m leading two parallel lives. In one, I’m fine. I’m leading a comfortable bourgeois life, I’m healthy, I have food and shelter. In the other, I’m watching the worst horrors, I can barely breathe, I’m screaming into the void, and nothing seems to help. Unbearable.

Israel has been murdering Palestinian truth tellers for 8 decades. The journalist, the poet, the novelist, the academic, the organizer, the doctor. The goal has always been to bomb and shoot its way into Palestinian silence. It has never achieved victory. It never will.

Banging the pots loud 🥄🥄🥄 A dear friend gifted me this spoon during my wife's surgery a couple months into the current genocide. Now it has found a noisy new purpose 🔥 🥄

Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.

Democratic Congressman @repbillfoster.bsky.social repeatedly voted to fund and arm Netanyahu even as he commits genocide, refuses to even acknowledge the famine he helped fund, & is now having police remove people protesting at his town hall. Bill Foster: Scientist, Businessman, Genocide Enabler

She's Publisher's Marketplace official! ♥️🇵🇸 If you're interested in book about a haunted house that fights back against its occupiers - and the three generations of Palestinian women who are bound to it - then look out September 2026 from Tor Nightfire and Orbit UK!

There is no two sides There’s occupier & occupied Genocide enforcer & genocide victims Only one side is mass starving refugees in concentration camps Only one side is enforcing apartheid & blockade Only one side is demolishing homes & torturing prisoners That side is Israel

Gaza Freedom Flotilla has released statement that Black labour leader Chris Smalls (Amazon Labour Union) faced violence that no one else on Handala did. He has been severely beaten in Israeli custody. Smalls follows in legacy of Black radical tradition for Palestine. Labour must stand for Smalls.

At the Israeli prison, US human rights defender Chris Smalls was physically assaulted by seven uniformed individuals. They choked him and kicked him in the legs. We condemn this violence against Chris and demand accountability for the assault and discriminatory treatment he faced. #BreakTheSiege

6000 @UNRWA trucks waiting at the border to feed those hungry babies, those hungry mamas and babas, those hungry kittens on the street. 6000 trucks could feed them for three months. But your tax dollars won’t let that happen.

HELL YEAH THYME TRAVELERS 🌱 🍉 🌴 🫒

Al Jazeera's live ticker headlines can't keep up with the death count today

We need a global labor strike. Now.

If you’ve ever wanted to read a book about a Palestinian haunted house that fights back against its occupiers—and the three generations of Palestinian women who are connected to it—then be on the lookout for Deena Helm’s debut! Coming to you in Sept 2026 from Tor Nightfire! 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Some things are not up for debate. The genocide in Palestine is one of them.

"The 12 states who agreed to the text are Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Indonesia, Iraq, Libya, Malaysia, Nicaragua, Namibia, Oman, St Vincent and the Grenadines and South Africa" So it's like that, huh?

They created a prison in the swamp, made it unlivable on purpose, and gave it a name that sounds like a bad joke. But it’s not funny. It’s a concentration camp, and history has seen this before.

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.

We said this weeks and weeks ago before it was told to bbc or associated press or any complicit media. We said it because we lived it. And we say it again and again, we are not waiting for anyone to confirm, to corroborate our accounts. We are the victims of this terror and we are the witness.

Stonewall Was An Intifada, Silence=Death, and Queer As In Free Palestine shirts for aid to Palestinian families in Gaza 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🍉 My wife and I made these to raise funds for Palestinian families who are being forcibly starved by Israel. They are owed justice. Buy a shirt: www.bonfire.com/store/queers...

Favorite chant at the Chicago Trans Liberation march today: One struggle, one fight! Palestine, Trans Rights!

This weekend, I'm participating in the Indie Bookstore Preorder Party (check out @authors4indiebookstores on Instagram for more details on all the goodness planned, but a key detail is using PARTY2025 and preordering Sabrena at a participating bookstore for 15% off!) Alt text included.

Hadiah managed to survive childbirth thank the Lord, but having 3 kids is expensive when there's only a trickle of food allowed into Gaza. Please help my friend, she has the sweetest children that I want to meet someday (link in alt-text) #gofundgaza #mutualaid #gaza
