A simple red handprint design, found here. As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my Palestinian best friend, to help take care of his loved ones. He'll donate any his family doesn't need to the charities he works with.
Also this is not related to the shop, but my friend and I are both STEM grad students and our department is getting increasingly involved in Palestine activism. I'd like to encourage our fellow grad students to check out these examples of statements from grads at the Goldman School of Public Policy and the UCSC Astronomy Department and attempt something similar at your school. The military relies on STEM professionals to build their war machine; it's up to us to pressure our colleagues to avoid that sort of work.
Here is the above shown on a few products:

Edit: Redbubble appears to be fixing the problem, my designs are starting to reappear so I'm going to unpin this now. You can find my fundraising shop here.
I have no idea why two thirds of the designs in my shop are not appearing now. While I wait for Redbubble to respond to me here are links to some of my bestsellers that have mysteriously vanished from my homepage (still seem available you just can't find them through my store). ALL PROCEEDS as usual are to support my Palestinian best friend:
Dove in Keffiyeh
Cat in Keffiyeh de Graag Edit one and two
Cute Cat in Keffiyeh
Palestine Sunbirds one and two
Woodcut Style Keffiyeh Dove over Poppy
Simple Poppy Design
Woman with Keffiyeh and Key - Meunier Edit
Hopefully Redbubble will sort out whatever is happening soon. Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!
Oh I'd also like to include this glitch art one which is pretty new but starting to get some sales:
I have a lot of other links throughout my Tumblr posts that should still work too.
A new fundraiser design found here, particularly good for stickers:
As always ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my best friend who is Palestinian. The extra income will help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. Recently we've been trying to help a friend of his get out of Gaza to an Egyptian university to finish their studies, if we can obtain the necessary permissions for them. They're a brilliant student and they are hoping they can get a good job to support their family after school, but sadly there are no universities left in Gaza now. If that doesn't work out this month's money will probably just go to helping a few more friends/extended family purchase food. We're kinda figuring out who needs it most at a given time as we go.
Here is a sample of some of my other work, starting with a couple related designs (all are part of the fundraiser):

Some of my favorite fundraising designs to make so far have been the various edits of open source vintage prints. I have another waiting for approval now that I look forward to sharing here. In the meantime here are some currently available (originals by Meunier and de Graag respectively):
ALL PROCEEDS from my designs go to my Palestinian best friend to help him support his girlfriend in remaining safely in America until things calm down and to help his other loved ones around the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He plans on donating anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with. You can find all my designs here. Redbubble will display with a random product, click on it to see all product options (stickers, shirts, etc).

I put this on a bunch of shirts and stickers and stuff, I figure it'll be good for protests and campus activism. Found here. As usual ALL PROCEEDS are for my Palestinian best friend, to help take care of his loved ones. He'll donate any his family doesn't need to the charities he works with.
To my fellow grad students: this friend and I are working with our department on making it easier for grads to bow out of research they have a moral objection to. We're also working on putting together a statement on Palestine. If you have a lot of colleagues on your side and particularly if you're in a program like engineering, physics, astronomy or applied math (with a lot of military applications) you should try to see where your funding is coming from and support grads in divesting from ethically questionable research. I won't say too much about what we're doing because I don't want to risk doxing my friend, but here are some examples of statements from grads at the Goldman School of Public Policy and the UCSC Astronomy Department. We (STEM students in particular) are the next generation of minds behind the military-industrial complex. It's up to us to make it clear we will not be complicit in work that supports genocide.

Happy election day everyone, the date just made me realize I've been running this fundraiser for a little over a year now. Rather depressing, but I am very grateful for all the support you have given my best friend through this awful time.
I decided to make a new version of this text design for my fundraiser since I think the Arabic letters, being thinner and more stylized, were not standing out as much in green. Like the older one, this was mostly made as a sticker design. You can find it here. Here are demos of this and my two older interwoven English/Arabic designs on stickers:
EVERYTHING I EARN from my shop is for my best friend, a Palestinian grad student living in America. The money is sent home to support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.
You can find all my work in my shop HERE. You can add filters by products (stickers, clothes, etc) on the left or go here to browse by design. Here is a sample of some of my other work:
There are over a hundred other designs in a wide variety of styles in my shop too, I hope you find something you like.
Also I'm not going to tell you all how to vote but I do hope all eligible Americans do plan on voting today even if you can't stomach voting for a mainstream candidate. A protest vote is a lot stronger statement than staying home, since something like 30-50% of the eligible population tends to not vote in this country anyway. Realistically not voting is likely to be analyzed as routine apathy rather than a statement. A third party vote shows you are a participating voter who can be courted in future elections. So whatever way you choose to vote please do it!
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped out! We really appreciate the support.

This new design makes use of an open source vintage print Klaprozen by Willem Wenckebach. It can be found here. Here are some example products (sticker, notebook, shirts, bag and phone case):

The new work is found here. I have a handful of previous designs using some of these elements as well, including two with the same quote and a bunch with the same base art (an edited photograph of a keffiyeh with eyes from an old movie poster). For example:

Starving grad student running a small Redbubble shop (initially for side income, now for fundraising for my Palestinian friend). Made this blog to share my designs, found here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/fairiedance/shopMy best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is a Palestinian grad student studying in America, and a lot of his friends and family are being affected by the genocide in Gaza and the fallout in the West Bank and surrounding areas. I have started selling Palestine related designs in my shop. EVERYTHING I RAISE he sends to his loved ones to help in various ways as the situation progresses.Designs not related to Palestine have been removed from my shop for now (probably for good at this point).
