@kawlafamily78 is a family of five - two parents and their three children, all under the age of ten. Their oldest, Muhammed, who is five, contracted hepatitis from drinking contaminated water due to the occupation’s horrific treatment.
Khawla is currently a little over half way from meeting her goal for donations, but there’s still a long way to go. If you can donate even a little, please do! If not, reblog and encourage others to donate 🙏

YES, please cause white alta fans would be calling Jet a "dangerous extremist" and yap about how the end doesn't justify the needs but ignore the several crimes Zuko commited in season 1 alone.
Dosen't sit right with me that Jet gets hate for going too far with his motives ONE time like Zuko's crackhead ass wasn't running around doing the same thing for 2 seasons straight
This is what my children's lives have become... Every night, instead of dreaming about their future, they are haunted by scenes of blood, destruction and genocide. All they have left is fear and hunger. Your small donation, 5 or 10 euros, makes a big difference in their lives. Help us share this message so that their suffering can be heard and heard by everyone. Be their hope... Donate now.
Please donate so we can live.
I love how L*bdell decided to strip all nuance from Jason's family by making Willas a predator and domestic abuser that was routinely involved in crime, and Catherine, the poor rich girl who used drugs to cope with the trajectory of her life and neglected her child. All of this to make Bruce "actively endangering children" Wayne a better parent and somewhat rich saviour to Jason rather than the complex tragedy that was this family and how at the root of it all, they genuinely each loved each other.
I love how now in modern comics it's all about the Joker and his fuckass behavior rather than positively re examining the systematic exploitation of the middle and lower class in Gotham by the villans or the mob and the general class dynamics.
man, not to be melodramatic, but there is something like. genuinely a little disturbing about just how widely accepted rhato's WILDLY classist willis todd retcon is. in all my years lurking on the comic book internet, i've seen a grand total of one person really pushing back & being vocally pissed about it, and that's... so fucked, considering just how bad it is
people who have only read later comics at least have the excuse of only having been exposed to the post-butchery version of jason's origin, but there are WAY too many people who've clearly read his post-crisis robin run but talk about it like the changes lobdell made were these minor cosmetic tweaks
i don't know how you could read a story where the through-line is that this kid loved his parents (BOTH of them) so much, not even bruce wayne could relate to the intensity of his grief when he lost them... but NOT see a retcon that rewrites said parents to instead be neglectful, abusive caricatures of poverty whose son only learned about the concept of love and kindness by the grace of some virtuous rich fuck who takes him in in an attempt to teach him how to be a good person as anything but a fucking insult
"jason grew up in poverty on the 'bad side' of town" and "most of jason's childhood was spent in a (relatively) stable home with parents who loved him" are apparently just completely incompatible statements. because yeah i mean, obviously, it's a lot more realistic if he'd never experienced a single positive thing in his life before he met bruce, right? if literally every single person he'd ever met before bruce rescued him from the hell on earth that is a low-income neighborhood was a morally-vacant piece of shit?
willis todd's rap sheet in jason's post-crisis origin had not a single violent offense. the dude ran numbers and worked in chop shops. he was the criminal equivalent of a mechanic with a delivery gig on the side (and it's pretty heavily implied he was only even doing that because he wanted to be able to give jason a better life)
if that translates to "violent, morally bankrupt scumbag who beats his wife and doesn't give a shit about his kid" in your mind, i mean this in the kindest way possible, but i think you really need to do some introspection on why that is lol
Urgent appeal for help for my family in repairing the tent to face the winter and the harsh rains and to obtain their food.

Only white people would have the audacity to explain to me, a black woman about colonialism and the difference between them both as if my country wasn't culturally and socially deconstructed and controlled by Britain.
Compliancy within a system still perpetuates the system. It still harms the people who are exploited by it. Colonialism is multi-faceted, but compliance with the system, especially when you're directly benefitting from the system, is still harm and a bad thing.
water is life. infrastructure must be rebuilt. about 190k usd are left to reach this goal.
donate here! every dollar gets us closer!
if you have a clean and consistent water source that is a privilege. it always has been in this world. here is a chance to give that back to a place in dire need. take it! this goal can and must be filled!
Education, which was young Tulin's passion, now seems like a distant memory, as there is no school, no home, and no safe place. The war has forced us to abandon our dreams and our work. Life as we knew it has stopped, swallowed up by a sea of uncertainty, loss and despair
• My daughter Tulane is a radiant ray of sunshine, bringing joy, warmth and boundless love to everyone she meets. She has been through many health ailments.
• My middle daughter, Wateen, who is five years old, suffered a broken leg as a result of escaping during the aggression against the area surrounding us. Wateen suffers from osteomalacia and poor growth. I hope that this incident will not be repeated and that I will not see anything bad about it
• This is our house, full of our memories and moments of joy and happiness, which has now turned into ruins. His destruction
broke our hearts
Despite the darkness that surrounds us, a ray of hope appears in our hearts - a longing to seek refuge in the embrace of safety, and to find solace in a land untouched by the scourges of war. Egypt beckons to us as a beacon of hope, promising safe haven and the opportunity to rebuild our shattered lives. However, the path to freedom is fraught with obstacles, and we are unable to afford the journey that might lead us to a new beginning.
My family and I are looking forward to evacuating to Egypt, but as you know, a lot of money is needed to pay for the coordination costs in order to cross the border, and we still need money to get the total amount required so that we can travel.
With each passing day, our burdens grow heavier, and our pleas for help become more urgent. We long for the warmth of a safe haven, an opportunity to regain what we have lost and forge a path to a brighter future
My family and I are about to embark on this journey of hope, but we cannot do it alone. Our situation is dire, and we need your support to rebuild our lives and provide a future for our children. Your kindness and generosity can make a big difference. Your contributions will help us provide safe shelter, access to medical care, and the basic necessities of life and we humbly appeal to you, kind souls, to extend your helping hand. Your generosity may pave the way for us to escape this nightmare, and give us a chance to start over
Please, consider helping us during these critical times. Every donation, regardless of size, brings us one step closer to safety, stability and the opportunity to rebuild our lives
With gratitude from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for every donation, every engagement, and every ounce of compassion you provide to our cause. Your support means more than words can express. Together, we can turn our story of loss into a journey of hope and resilience.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your concern
Donate if you can

The Occupation has systematically destroyed every social infrastructure that makes civil society possible, whether it be healthcare, food systems, or education. They've targeted schools, hospitals, businesses, and every person who supports their community through their profession.
Rana and Ahmed (@ranafam2) are educators from Khan Younis, with Rana as a statistics professor at the Islamic University of Gaza and Ahmed as the principal of his school: both institutions have now been destroyed.
Palestinians have survived occupation for well over a century now, and they will remain steadfast, but they need your support.
Even with the ceasefire, resources are still limited and expensive. The weekly allowance for basic provisions like baby formula and flour is about $1000. Rana is also anticipating additional costs for baby formula, clothes, and natal care as she's eight months pregnant and expecting soon.
Finally with the ceasefire, Rana is hoping to evacuate with her family altogether. The cost of evacuation per person ranges from $5000 to $7000. If Rana gives birth before she can evacuate, that puts the total anticipated cost at $49,000 (5 children, 2 adults).
As of today (1/23), we are at:
I know these are overwhelming numbers, but if every person who shared this post donated $5, we can get them to safety.
