- There’ll be no humanizing New York Times profile of this boy. The Empire State Building won’t illuminate for his murdered siblings. No US politician will condemn his kidnapping, or express an ounce of sympathy for his unfathomable loss. Why does his grief mean so much less?A freed Palestinian teenage hostage discovered that the Israeli army had killed his father and all of his siblings while he was in captivity.
00:00 - Two billionaires, with the combined carbon footprint of a small nation, on their way to dinner with the Kushner-Trumps. As Gaza burns, as MAGA extremism sweeps the country, as flags from sea to shining sea fly at half mast for a virulent racist.
- Disappearing a man for protesting state violence is fascism.
- This is so incredibly dark. Can you even begin to imagine the media and political response if a group of Arab men and boys had chased a lone woman down the street of a major American city shouting “death to Jews!”ZI0NISTS in NYC yelling “D€ATH TO ARABS” while kicking & harassing a lone woman....
00:00 - The View is the most watched daytime talk show in the US. This is significant, and Bardem continues to be a moral beacon in a deeply cowardly industry. 👏🏼❤️🔥Shout out to Javier Bardem
- This is a 43-year-old-replica bell. In Gaza, the US-armed IDF has destroyed: • Grand Omari Mosque (7th century) • Saint Porphyrius Church (3rd oldest church in world) • Sayyid Hashim Mosque (burial place of Prophet Muhammad’s grandfather) • Anthedon (World Heritage Site)My heart is just broken.
00:00 - A reminder (as if one were needed) that there are zero professional repercussions for anti-Palestinian racism, no matter how gross or overt.
02:18First trailer for ‘KINDA PREGNANT’, a film starring Amy Schumer as a woman pretending to be pregnant. Releasing February 5 on Netflix. - If an 11-year-old Israeli influencer—a girl who delivered food and toys to displaced children—had been killed, the Empire State Building would be lit up for her. Her face would be on the homepage of every US news outlet. Her name would be on the tongue of every US politician.11-year-old Yaqeen Hammad was one of Gaza’s youngest influencers. She spent her days in Gaza making desserts, delivering food and bringing joy to other children who had lost everything. On May 23, she was killed in an airstrike after Israel shelled her neighborhood in Deir
00:00 - These children deserve the worldVideo shows Palestinian children jumping with joy as a parent chants “Hudna! Hudna! Hudna!” — an Arabic word meaning a long-term truce or ceasefire.
00:00 - Beloved disability rights activist Alice Wong co-founded Crips for eSims for Gaza, which raised millions of dollars to support internet and phone connectivity for Palestinians in Gaza during the genocide. In doing so, she helped save countless lives. RIP 💔
- A truly pro-Palestinian politician is going to be mayor of New York City. Christ, I had forgotten what good political news feels like 😭😭😭
- Imagine signing this but not the Palestine pledge. Imagine speaking up for multi-millionaire Jimmy Kimmel after 5 days but staying silent on a genocide (funded by your tax dollars) for 716 days and counting.400+ celebrities signed the ACLU’s open letter condemning ABC/Disney’s suspension of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Signees include Selena Gomez, Olivia Rodrigo, Ben Platt, Al Yankovic, Meryl Streep, Bryan Cranston, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Tom Hanks, Jennifer Aniston, Robert De Niro and more.
