They have gotten so far and are nearing their goal. Please help them to reach the finish line!!! Remember that these funds are necessary for daily living as the family awaits evacuation.
🎨 Art NOT by me - all art credit goes to an artist (who wanted to remain anonymous for now) who gave Ahmed permission to post, and then Ahmed gave me permission to post on his behalf.
🌟 This campaign has been vetted by @/el-shab-hussein and @/nabulsi - #264 on the vetted Gaza fundraiser list. Also verified by @/butterflyeffect.project (line 741)
EDIT: final goal has been changed due to Ahmed needing to raise the goal to ensure he receives the necessary funds after gfm fees and bank taxes have been taken out! truly despicable that these financial hurdles exist given the circumstances :((

No, you guys don't understand. This is HUGE.
In 1968, a schoolteacher named Harriet Glickman wrote to Charles Schulz, the Peanuts creator, and asked if he could introduce a black character to the comic strip. Schulz wrote back that he had thought about doing so but he was afraid that the character would come off as too "patronizing" or stereotypical. The two then began writing back and forth, with Glickman helping Schulz develop the character of Franklin.
As expected, there was pushback. A lot of people argued that Schulz only created Franklin for "political reasons" (kinda like how people accuse things of being 'woke'). One teacher from the South wrote to Schluz, saying they didn't mind a black character being in the comics, but they didn't like that Franklin was in a classroom with white students. The newspapers even threatened to cut the strip completely. Schulz simply said "Either you print it as I draw it, or I quit."
Now, over 56 years later and during Black History month no less, Franklin is front and center for a Peanuts special. This is absolutely amazing and we should be talking about it
AH, HERE IT IS! OUR SHOW'S INTRO'S OUT!
Expecting a typical summer, two sisters ( Alisson A.K.A Alice, Age 9 & Maddison A,K,A Maddie, Age 19 ) discover a massive black hole under their town. When they & their neighbors fall into the darkness with their cat, they uncover an always changing labyrinth of secrets, magic & unimaginable horrors based on each character's past.
Inspired by stories like Coraline, Gravity Falls, & the MANY years worth of Alice In Wonderland adaptations along with the boom of liminal space & dreamcore aesthetics!
"Are you sure you want to quit?"
"In front of you stands two guards, one always tells the truth, the other only tells lies"

A small editing exercise I made as a love letter to TV animation. I hope it's as overwhelming as I intended it to be. Sorry if I didn't get your fave in, I ran out of room faster than I thought!
New Alice In BlankLand Pilot Clip! One of my proudest pieces of #animation thus far is on Alice here! Lots of work to keep her feeling lively with tons of personality choices inspired by the great Melissa Medina ( Her VA ). & All the same with Maddie's vocal lifeblood in Brenna Thornton!
( An indie-animated 80s spin on the classic Wondelrand fairytale!
