and when we speak we are afraid
our words will not be heard
nor welcomed
but when we are silent
we are still afraid
So it is better to speak
remembering
we were never meant to survive.
--Audre Lorde

More than 15,000 children were killed in Gaza in 200 days.

Nearly all 600,000 kids in Rafah “injured, sick, malnourished.”

Nothing justifies this. Nothing. Not self defense. Not human shields. Not a damn thing.

BREAKING: Israel is now bombing 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, threatening an imminent invasion of the last “safe place” in Gaza.

Israel is committing the worst crimes in modern history, and Western regimes are calling it “self-defense”.

Never forget. Never forgive.
