Noor Aldayeh is making space for queer Palestinians to tell their own stories.

from the folks at the Death Panel podcast:

"Masks Are a Symbol of Solidarity. Don’t Let Democrats Take Them Away.
"Mask bans are ostensibly about public safety. The result would be disastrous for public health—but it goes beyond that, too.

"For parts of the left, masks have become a symbol of solidarity. First, over Covid-19 itself: Wearing masks is a message that we will not abandon each other the way that the Biden administration has. Second, masking has become a symbol of solidarity between disability justice and the struggle for a free Palestine, and a commitment to ensuring that disabled and immunocompromised people are supported within left movements."

"Between October 2023 and March 2024 alone, Covid killed 39,759 people in the US — closely matching the 34,367 Palestinians murdered by the occupation in the same time period, both likely vast undercounts.... Accepting this kind of unrelenting mass death as normal sets the stage to allow even greater atrocities to come.'"

Anesthetics, crutches, dates. Inside Israel’s ghost list of items arbitrarily denied entry into Gaza

Humanitarian workers and government officials working to deliver urgently needed aid for Gaza as disease and near-famine grip large parts of the coastal enclave say a clear pattern has emerged of Israeli obstruction of the multi-billion-dollar humanitarian effort.

"The Nation’s Conscience
"The courageous stance of students across the country in defiance of genocide is accompanied by a near total blackout of their voices. Their words are the ones we most need to hear."

From Chris Hedges: https://chrishedges.substack.com/p/the-nations-conscience
excerpt:

"The protest movements - which have spread around the globe - are not built around the single issue of the apartheid state in Israel or its genocide against Palestinians. They are built around the awareness that the old world order, the one of settler colonialism, western imperialism and militarism used by the countries in the Global North to dominate the Global South, must end. They decry the hoarding of natural resources and wealth by industrial nations in a world of diminishing returns. These protests are built around a vision of a world of equality, dignity and independence. This vision, and the commitment to it, will make this movement not only hard to defeat, but presages a wider struggle beyond the genocide in Gaza.

"The genocide has awakened a sleeping giant. Let us pray the giant prevails."
