The Palestinians bid farewell to their brother who was killed after being targeted by the Israeli occupation forces while fishing on the beach of Deir Al Balah in central Gaza Strip.

Mothin Ali!
Following his journey the past 4 years from gardening to community care and now representing his community with a seat as councilor 💚

[Novara Media @novaramedia]

When Mothin Ali won a council election in east Leeds, he didn’t expect to make headlines across the rightwing press. But the real story is how Labour has problems in its ‘heartland’ seats.

An Arts Council England (ACE) warning against arts organisations making “overtly political or activist” statements came after a discussion about Israel’s war in Gaza with the government, it has been revealed.

This is unbearable. Almost every one of these bombs was paid for by the US, yet Biden acts as if he is incapable of stopping it.

"I was in the market, came home to find all my brothers and sisters gone. All of them were killed, ripped to pieces, their flesh scattered..."

Apartheid ended because it was no longer economically viable and sustainable. Not because white people saw it as immoral and had a sudden change of heart.

[Karim Wafa-Al Hussaini @DrKarimWafa]

Just in case you missed what’s been going on: these French forces are flying halfway across the globe to one of the last remaining colonies of the French empire (New Caledonia) to suppress calls for independence by the Indigenous Kanaky people. Free Kanaky 🇳🇨 End imperialism.

[inqilāb @tastefullysaucy]

They are brazen because the last 7 months and 75 years have showed them that they are above the law. Because the institutions that claim to uphold human rights have given them a carte blanche to plunder, murder and destroy as they please. They won’t stop until someone stops them

[Witness Docs @AJWitness]

"These days there is no safety from the settlers."

Threatened by rising Israeli settler violence in the occupied West Bank, a Palestinian family is forced to shelter in a cave every night. Watch the full documentary here: https://t.co/y4U2hkxfIL

[xanthus stan account @tobikyere]

i’m lowkey shocked by the number of people that went to this royal family creatives garden party lol. everyday i’m like “et tu, Brutus?!”

[Lina Abu Akleh @LinaAbuAkleh]

It’s been 2 years since my aunt #ShireenAbuAkleh was killed by an Israeli soldier and life has not been the same since. No one has been held accountable & the U.S. has failed our family in holding the killer responsible.
#JusticeforShireen.

Words are not murder. And if you feel unsafe because students are protesting colonialism and genocide, then stay home.

[TIMES OF GAZA @Timesofgaza]

Stun grenades and tear gas are being used by police in the U.S against student encampment protestors, below is footage from the UCLA campus last night.

[momtaza mehri 💆🏾‍♀️ @RuffneckRefugee]

I talked to m. nourbeSe philip about Zong! and its ripples, stretched and strained texts, and what it means to “untell” a story.

Have a peek @GrantaMag.

Students of Chicago University set up the Refaat Alareer Memorial Library on the campus.

[Muhammad Shehada @muhammadshehad2]

I saw Refaat in a dream last night.
He was tightly holding a baby to his chest; he finally met with his newborn grandson, AbdelRahman, whom Israel just killed as well.

I told him: You left us too early.
He said: Here, it's much better. Here, there's no fear or anguish!

[Omar Hamad | عُـمَـرْ 𓂆 @OmarHamadD]

Occupation forces are attempting to enter the city of Rafah. If we don't die from the airstrikes, we'll be crushed by their tanks. I hope you can help my family before Rafah is invaded. Please donate and share my campaign.
