Christmas is here and the genocide hasn't stopped for a moment
This is the second Christmas in a row where palestinians have been under bombing, displacement, famine, lack of water, at risk of various illnesses due to unsanitary conditions and the destruction of healthcare infraestructure. Children have had their childhood taken from them; adolescents and young adults had their education come to a halt; adults have been left out of work; the elderly and disabled palestinians have lost the systems of support essential for their survival.
While many countries around the world celebrate this tradition, Palestine is bleeding. What some of us might take for granted; such as being in companionship with our loved ones, food, going out and resting; is not granted to palestinians.
As we organize and boycott companies who directly support Israel's actions, I urge to donate to families in-need as well.
My friends, Siraj and Dina, have been working tirelessly since October 7th to provide for their families. Our aid has enabled them to care for their loved ones and survive through the worst conditions imaginable.
Christmas is the time of giving. So please anything you have goes a long way.
Hey pals, do you think you could help me with a reblog to circulate this? Thanks!
