Sameer Project shows us what people are going through right now in Gaza. Support is essential given that the entity has closed a most all borders since it started bombing Iran. Help Sameer provide tents for displaced people. chuffed.org/project/1132...

Haitian woman, 31, dies alone at Pittsburgh bus stop days after ICE released her to the streets far from home to perish. Rest in power, Daphy Michel: migrantinsider.com/p/the-loneso...

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Please donate to The Sameer Project and their Ramadan Campaign to support families in Gaza. They do incredible work.

An amazing MN Librarian assembled us a reading list to add to the website so people can do more than donate, they can learn to organize in their communities. standwithminnesota.com/read

I know there is a lot happening in the US, and there are needs to be met in Gaza too. My friend Eslam is trying to raise funds for her family. Winter conditions in Gaza are harsh and life threatening. Israel’s not allowing in aid needed to support families. Please consider donating to her campaign

🚨 Must watch: Nicole Widdersheim of Human Rights Watch, her voice audibly breaking, describes atrocities against civilians in Sudan that are now “on par, if possibly not worse,” than those during the Darfur genocide 2 decades ago. She said both the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) & the Sudanese Armed...

Good morning from @altyellonatpark.org

I’ve been talking with Eslam for some time— her account @soma-eslam.bsky.social was unfairly suspended. Please email [email protected] and ask Bluesky to restore it. Every message counts to help her get her voice and community back.

Eslam has been a welcome presence on our feeds before the Israeli war and famine, and she's still desperately trying to get her family out of Gaza. Can we help her out? You know the drill. Donate only if you can. Spread the word if you cannot. #GazaAid chuffed.org/project/1282...

@moderation.bsky.app why did you delete @soma-eslam.bsky.social account? She is my friend and trying to build a community of support for herself and her family. Stop targeting Palestinians who are trying to survive a genocide!

“In a world that tries to reduce us to statistics, we have become storytellers. A single date carries the story of a family’s love, a child’s survival, a father’s absence and a people’s refusal to stop being human.” - Asem Alnabih

My friend Eslam has had her account removed by bluesky moderation. This is not the first time. I want to tell you what she said happened to her, but first, i’d like you to see Eslam’s campaign, since she is apparently not allowed here to share it herself. bit.ly/artist-eslam (1/?)

"In a place where institutions and systems have collapsed, it is the human gesture—freely given—that preserves the sacred." Alaa Alqaisi in Beneath the Howl of Hunger @arablit.bsky.social arablit.org/2025/07/23/b...

The murder of U.S. citizen Sayfollah Musallet by Israeli settlers in the West Bank parallels what American settlers did to Indigenous people. From the time of the American Revolution, US citizens squatted on tribal land in violation of treaties & US law. This is how the US constantly expanded.🧵

A group of mute people were talking sign. When a bomb fell, they fell silent.

A developing situation here in MN: lots of people talking about it over on IG but not seeing it on here: looks like local poet and activist Isa Lopez got snatched by federal agents. Georgia Fort is reporting on it too. For now, just re-sharing the call(s) to action that Jeremiah Ellison shared:

I've been facing some financial abuse, but I'm trying to recover & plant seeds of success for the fall. I need to update my document to travel & I need to supplement teaching supplies for my summer class. It's PRIDe support a Black Trans Woman! #ProtectTheBricks www.gofundme.com/f/local-woma...

I donated. Hope you can too. Thanks for sharing this and always posting about the plight of Palestinian children and families, Alex.

Whether you decide to fast or not, please consider donating to The Sameer Project, a mutual aid initiative providing support in Gaza.

Today, on World Hunger Day, I am calling on you to join me in fasting in solidarity with the people of Gaza, who have been denied access to food for over two months by the government of Israel. To protest this, I am eating no food and drinking nothing but water from sunrise to sunset. #FastforGaza

“Like a child, the owner of the land nurtures it throughout his life, inheriting it from his ancestors and protecting it as if it were a part of his soul. The tyrannical Israeli army forces the farmer to sacrifice his soul to save his life.” - Ruwaida Amer
