Just got word that the last of my remaining family members in Gaza have made it to Egypt after more than 6 months sheltering in a church in the north. I am glad for their safety but it is also tragic: my last familial link to Palestine gone, an exile that began in 1948 complete
what an absolutely reprehensible thing to say; truly reveals just how little you think of anyone, let alone someone with any values rightly pointing out hypocrisy.
young human rights activists disrupt the german ambassadors speech during the Asma Jahangir Conference for their role in the genocide in Gaza
This is Shima’s message early this month to Refaat after she gave birth to her first child, which made Refaat a grandfather, just three months after Refaat got murdered: I carry good news for you, something I wish I could do while are in front of me. I present to you your first…
Every time there’s a shocking & violent police crackdown against protesters in this country, there are people who describe the scenes as resembling what some other, repressive, non-democratic country does, and I’m begging them to consider that this very much the USA.
Breaking: We mourn with you the loss of Shaimaa, the eldest daughter of our dear friend Rafat Al-Araeer @itranslate123, and her husband, engineer Mohammed Abdel Aziz Siyam, along with their newborn baby, after their apartment near Al-Ramal Clinic in Gaza was targeted in an…
You don’t know what it feels like seeing the footage and bodies of these mass graves not knowing if maybe one of them are the unidentified bodies of your cousins who’ve been missing from khan Younis for 3 months. I hope you never have to know this feeling.
I’m relieved to report that my wife’s brother and her two children were released after one hour of being kidnapped at the checkpoint. I talked to my mother, who was crossing with them, and she told me that they first stopped my 19-year-old sister, who was born ill. My sister…
Breaking, breaking: Just now, the Israeli army kidnaps my brother’s wife and her 3-year old son and one-month-old son at the checkpoint while they were trying to cross from the north to the south to leave Gaza with my mother and my ill sister.
Here’s the link: lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/apri…. Thank you @MansoorAdayfi and @PradhanAlka
I wrote about hanging out at a museum of artifacts looted from Congo with my friend Mansoor, the way the colonial theft of culture relates to the taking of men to Guantánamo… and also things you don’t want to know about cheese.
Another reason is because of an article I wrote for @The_NewArab where I said i refuse to condemn bc the politics of condemnation is racist. You wouldn’t ask a Jewish person to condemn Israeli crimes. Don’t as us to. This was also dangerous for the German state.
I’m being retaliated against due to my participation in the Palestine Congress. Police have opened an investigation into me and one of the reasons is my work as a journalist and my interview with Zaid Abdulnasser for my upcoming documentary. A crime to properly do my job?
With a heavy heart I announce that my 18-year-old younger sister, Lara Sayegh, was killed today on her way from Gaza City to the south. She and my mother were reaching Egypt for safety. My angel collapsed as she was walking on the “safe route” past the Israeli checkpoint, in an…
Today in @thenation we have a piece by Lujayn, a 14-year-old girl in Gaza, that has floored me every time I've read it. It's about what happened when an Israeli bulldozer came to destroy the house she was staying in, and you must, must, must read it. thenation.com/article/world/…

Such an infuriatingly vapid response to the issue of Gaza. If Billy Porter wants to be left out of the conversation why is he running to sign petitions condemning cultural boycotts against Israel?

Hello? 911? I’d like to report a double homicide.
The “qoum hi jail hai” also creates an inhuman other. It lets us get away with not feeling complicit in our silence while we allow for horrific violence to be normalised everyday.
When we reflect on the mob violence in Pakistan, our answer cannot just be - “jahil qoum”. That is not only arrogant but intellectually lazy and useless. Civil rights isn’t a civilisation project. It is to diagnose structural issues that pit our people against each other
@SabaImtiaz I couldn’t stop thinking about that! 10/10 for authenticity
We are very happy to announce the reissue of Janet Frame’s THE EDGE OF THE ALPHABET & Edward Said’s THE QUESTION OF PALESTINE in our classics list this autumn, with further books by both Frame and Said to follow. More details here: thebookseller.com/rights/fitzcar…
The cultural industry around Faiz today seems all the more distasteful when you read his work - he uses ‘hum’ (we) way more than ‘main’ (I), he rarely talks about his personal life, and he always emphasises collective Marxist liberation rather than the cult of individualism.
For anyone asking, I bought it from Redbubble. The link is here: redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Shah… Please ignore other links from random people in the comments, they are scams/spam links
@SabaImtiaz i’m inclined to think this is still the case, because current palestinian students at these universities have been organising protests in karachi & lahore
I will probably forget the names of the mealy-mouthed equivocating cowardly literary institutions but I will not forget that @lithub has been clear-sighted all these months.
