“the state has found an asset in Black women who are willing to be a face for a violent empire…giving the plantation walls a new shiny Black coat of paint…aesthetic changes to the state only makes the brutality easier to look at” ⁦I Could’ve Just Sat On In With Massa⁩ refinery29.com/en-us/2024/04/…

I know some are sad & some are celebrating because of a game, but today was one of the deadliest air strikes impacting civilians in Gaza who were told to evacuate to Rafah. When the inevitably of death is more comforting than life itself, there are just no words. This must end.

Nothing justifies killing over 12,000 children. Nothing. Not self defense. Not human shields. Not a damn thing.

In the past 24 hours Israel killed more Palestinian civilians than all the civilians that died on October 7.

But let’s keep talking about October 7 and condemning it.

The Nakba, or “catastrophe,” of 1948 saw 15,000 Palestinians killed and 750k displaced. Since Oct. 7 over 15,000 Palestinians have been killed and 1.7 million displaced.

Netanyahu says Israel will continue its assault “until the end.”

Will the world allow a new Nakba?
