The moment when you wanna draw but the art isn't arting
Shai Davidai needs to be FIRED and de-platformed. He's a danger to Palestinian/Arab/Muslim students and allies to Palestinian liberation. That has been proven time and again.
Here is another beautiful moment/act of solidarity I wanted to share that happened on the same campus:
Hi, I am Ahmed from Palestine, from the northern part of Gaza City. I am 33 years old, married, and a father of two children. I live in the Jabalia refugee camp with my family, which consists of 19 members, in a four-story house.
Since the beginning of the war on Gaza on October 7th, life in northern Gaza has been extremely difficult, lacking basic necessities due to the siege imposed by the Israeli army on the northern part of the Gaza Strip. The occupation has blocked food, medicine, water, electricity, and even communication networks. Thousands of airstrikes have been carried out, and hundreds of massacres have been committed, mostly affecting innocent civilians, the majority of whom are children and women. The infrastructure, thousands of homes, and civilian facilities have been destroyed.
On May 12th, 2024, the Israeli army besieged the Jabalia camp for the second time and ordered us to evacuate, informing us that it was a military operation zone and a dangerous combat area. We were forced to leave our homes in the camp and flee under heavy bombardment and intense gunfire, navigating through the rubble and bodies lying in the streets and on the roads. We became homeless, with no food or water. During this difficult siege, I lost two of my brothers, Abdullah, 30 years old, and Atallah, 26 years old, due to random shelling and airstrikes on the camp.
Why am I collecting donations?
After more than 15 months of war, on January 19th, 2025, the ceasefire came into effect, and we returned to the camp to check on our home. However, we were shocked by the extent of the destruction and devastation in the camp. The homes had turned into piles of rubble, and we could no longer recognize the places or roads due to the scale of the damage. Our house was completely destroyed, leaving us homeless. Now, my family and I live in a small tent that is insufficient for the number of family members. It offers no privacy, no bathroom, no kitchen, and it does not protect us from the summer heat or the winter cold. We are living in an overcrowded environment with displaced people, chaos, piles of garbage, and the spread of diseases, especially among the displaced children.
This war has forced us to live in extremely harsh conditions and an environment that is unfit for human life. We continue to suffer every day from the ongoing war, repeated displacement, lack of resources and essentials, fear, pain, and oppression. Not to mention the hardship of fetching water, standing in long queues for basic needs, and struggling to find food—another challenge added to our suffering in this devastating war that is destroying people, buildings, trees, and animals. All of this has exhausted our bodies and deeply affected our mental well-being.
Therefore, I am reaching out to you through this humanitarian platform to help me support my family, rebuild our destroyed home, and contribute to providing the basic necessities of life so that I can live with my family with dignity and freedom.
• How will these donations be used?
1) An apartment will be rented to temporarily house my family until the reconstruction of the destroyed house is completed, as an alternative to a tent, at a cost of $600 per month for at least two years. (An estimated total cost of $14,000 over the two years.)
2) Purchase the basic tools and equipment necessary to furnish the rented apartment at an estimated cost of $5,000.
3) Purchase clothing and basic necessities for all family members at an estimated cost of $6,000.
4) Remove the rubble of the destroyed house and rebuild it at an estimated cost of $140,000.
5) Purchase the tools and equipment necessary to furnish all apartments in the new house at an estimated cost of $35,000.
• How does your donation and support make a difference?
Your support and donation is a noble humanitarian cause that supports and strengthens our resilience during the war. This contribution, even if it is small, will make a huge difference in my life and the life of my family.
Please help us to live in safety and peace, to start over to achieve our ambitions and dreams, and to create a safe environment for our children that will provide them with a bright future.

Please save my family from the war in Gaza. . Please don't stop sharing my story and talking about their struggles. They were surrounded for three consecutive days under beatings and fire. There is no food or any of the necessities of life. From milk, diapers, or gas, they were displaced and lived in tents or rented a better room than tents. It was a great suffering. In recent days, we have lost a number of family members, and this has greatly affected their psychology. Please save my family and donate. You can save them. My children are in a miserable state of terror and fear. Make a post for them. They are beautiful. I cannot bear to lose any of them. I hope you will not get over this.

This is a vetted fundraiser!!
I'm so so terribly sorry you have to go through all this
You'll get through this, Palestine WILL be free
Wishing you and your family safety 💕
horses have been made into the ideal worker over thousands of years of breeding and domestication and yet now are made to race to the point of exhaustion and injury and sometimes death to entertain the rich if they fail they are killed and if they succeed they are spared until they stop succeeding and then they are killed
even the most successful racehorses often end up beaten and starving in kill pens despite spending their lives earning millions of dollars for their stables their owners and thousands of sports betters
humans and horses are alike in our struggle under the boot of uncaring aristocracy
do not forget the love that fuels you in your anger do not let them break you and make you into their idea of animals they do not know that animals too have love and courage and reason and camaraderie they do not know that we have always been animals and animals feel so much more than their beloved hate and fear

Note to Society #35
The primary reason behind the common American backing Ukraine instead of Palestine is the United States government’s relationship with the offending nation.
If the US interacted with Israel the way it interacts with Russia, there would have been immediate calls to end this genocide as well as stronger humanitarian aid given to the people of Gaza.
Remember to be weary of propaganda when you’re consuming media related to this crisis. The people of Palestine have been calling for help for decades - Israel is committing genocide. And we are doing nothing.
I feel like I'm going insane. Multiple massacres in Gaza right now and no one is paying attention.
My name is mohammd, married and a father of four children between 5 and 13 years old. I live in the nourth of Gaza strip, precisely in the region of Gaza, next to Al-Shifa Hospital which suffered and still suffering very heavy damage because of the harsh bombings. Everything has been destroyed. Houses, schools, buildings, hospitals, shops, mosques, churches, means of transportation, etc
Unfortunately, my house was not spared. Actually, my family and I are living in makeshift tents in very precarious conditions. Food is very restricted, water and medications are rare. Hygiene products are non-existent. Life has stopped. Having lost everything, we decided unwillingly to leave Gaza for Egypte in the research of security and peace. This will allow us to heal ourselves, to regain strength, serenity but above all it will allow my children to continue their education and have a normal life. This is why I created this page to collect donation with the help of my My friend Mhammed is in Belgium The actual price to leave Gaza strip is 5000 dollarsper adult and 2500 dollars per child. PS: Hoping for a definitive ceasefire. If it's the case, we will remain in Gaza and this aid will partly allow us to rebuild our house.
Nomad esims are needed!!!!
34,000 deaths is clearly an appalling undercount when watchdog groups learn about mass graves like this every week.
main companies to boycott
Starbucks as well i will be linking this in my pinned post
Update: North Gaza Women's Project!
Mahmoud Abu Salama is doing an amazing thing in North Gaza! He is starting a project to help Deaf Palestinian women use their pastry making skills while also distributing food to families in need. This is helping both the women make a bit of a living and feed the hungry in the North.
By donating, we’re helping Mahmoud hire more women who take pride in helping both themselves and their communities! So please feel free to donate if you have a few dollars to spare, or spread the link if you're unable! Any little bit helps!

On April 30th while reporting on the Students Revolution at Columbia University, CNN anchor Kasie Hunt made reference to Hind Rajab as 'A Woman Who Was Killed in Gaza." Hind Rajab was six years old.
Injured child’s entire family killed in Israeli shelling in Gaza
This will make you cry.
A genocide alert was issued for the West Bank as Israeli settlers, with the protection of the army and police force, went on rampages killing 4 Palestinians and destroying property.
Please help Kenan and his family flee Gaza

Maternity kits, medical threads and scissors, water testing kits, anesthetics, mobile desalination units, etc do you see the pattern? Israel is not only starving the people of Gaza but it also wants to ensure the spread of disease through contaminated water and surgical tools, as well as ensuring injured Palestinians suffer through horrendous pain.
It's beyond sickening.
