Gaza is currently in another communications blackout and getting heavy air strikes from Israel.
This is the third time Israel has cut Gaza off from communications before intensifying attacks.
Israeli security forces have admitted to deliberately threatening and outing queer Palestinians as a tactic to intimidate them into working as informants.
Reminder that boycotting DOES work, there is historic proof! Don't let anyone discourage you otherwise!
The BDS movement uses the historically successful method of targeted boycotts inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, the US Civil Rights movement, the Indian anti-colonial struggle, among others worldwide.
We must strategically focus on a relatively smaller number of carefully selected companies and products for maximum impact. Companies that play a clear and direct role in Israel’s crimes and where there is real potential for winning, as was the case with, among others, G4S, Veolia, Orange, Ben & Jerry’s and Pillsbury. Compelling such huge, complicit companies, through strategic and context-sensitive boycott and divestment campaigns, to end their complicity in Israeli apartheid and war crimes against Palestinians sends a very powerful message to hundreds of other complicit companies that “your time will come, so get out before it’s too late!”
If a worker who isn't the owner says ANYTHING similar to "I'm not really supposed to do this but-" and then does something that helps you, under no circumstances inform the business, including through reviews. You tell them that the worker was polite, professional, the very model of customer service and why you like to go there. You do not breathe a word of the rulebreaking.
James baldwin’s the artists struggle for identity. Btw.

I’m an organizer with KC Tenants, Kansas City’s tenant union. One of the leaders on our Hotline team needs help by 10/19 to keep her car. If she loses her car, she won’t have a safe or affordable way to get to work, or reliable transportation for her kids.
Dani called our Hotline when she was in a homeless shelter herself, and she is deeply invested in building power with her community, having spent hundreds of hours calling other renters experiencing housing crises, connecting them with resources and inviting them into our union. She’s an incredible person and a vital member of our team.
We’re almost 25% of the way to the $2100 needed, please donate and/or share — even $5 is huge. 💛
I have absolutely no opinions on the Barbie movie but since I am already seeing discourse about it all over my dash I am begging people once again to get involved in some kind of local activism so they will stop thinking what movies you watch is a hardhitting form of praxis
