In 2018, Ahmed Abu Artema made a call that led to the Great March of Return, when Gazans attempted to break out of their prison only to be met with Israeli violence.

Five members of his family were just killed in an Israeli airstrike, one being his son.

RT @intifada: We're distressed that an airstrike killed 5 members of Ahmed Abu Artema's family. Ahmed is seriously injured but stable. Ahme…

Let’s talk a bit about some of the structural biases in media coverage of Palestine.

This thread is going to get a bit…. personnel….so bear with me....

[Jehad Abusalim @JehadAbusalim]

My sister just texted me "حنموت خلص"
“That’s it, we will die.” Due to the intensity of the situation.

My sister was 8 during the 2008 war, 12 during the 2012 war, 14 during the 2014 war, 18 during the march of return, and now she’s 21 during this.

She doesn’t deserve that.

The Palestinian Children and Families Act will prevent tax $ from funding Israel caging kids, destroying homes, and stealing land. We call on @NydiaVelazquez @RepYvetteClarke @RepEspaillat @RepMondaire @RepGregoryMeeks to cosponsor HR 2590 #freedomisthefuture

[Daro Behroozi @DaroBehroozi]

@RepGregoryMeeks How can Muslims live in peace and health under Israeli bombardment funded by $3.8 billion in US tax dollars? You can stop tax $ from funding Israel caging kids, destroying homes and stealing land. Will you support HR 2590?

[Daro Behroozi @DaroBehroozi]

@JamaalBowmanNY Thank you for your support for Palestinians! This New Yorker stands behind you.

[Daro Behroozi @DaroBehroozi]

@ericadamsfornyc What about Palestinians living under military occupation and under constant threat of military violence? Of being forced out of their homes by Israeli govt-sanctioned fanatic settlers? #SaveSheikhJarrah

[Daro Behroozi @DaroBehroozi]

@AndrewYang New Yorker, born and raised. You do not speak for me. I stand with Palestinians resisting ethnic cleansing and military occupation.

[Sumaya Awad @sumayaawad]

If you’re in the US and asking how to support #SaveSheikhJarrah, the answer is: Boycott, divest from & sanction Israel. Start with the $3.8 billion the US sends Israel annually from our tax $$. That check is material & political cover for Israel to do what it wants with impunity.

[Simone Zimmerman @simonerzim]

Let the scenes from Jerusalem break your heart. Let them enrage you. And the next time someone tries to gaslight you into confusion and stop you from speaking out for Palestinian freedom, remember what you have seen. Remember what is at stake if you remain silent.

[The IMEU @theIMEU]

What’s happening in Jerusalem and Palestine more broadly is not a "clash" or a "scuffle," but a state-sanctioned campaign of Israeli violence against Palestinians. To pretend otherwise is to minimize the horrors we are witnessing.

[Linda Sarsour @lsarsour]

I want my fellow Americans who are watching the horror happening to Palestinians in Sheikh Jarrah in Jerusalem to know - we pay for that. Our tax dollars enable this oppression.

What can you do? Call your member of Congress and demand they support ending military aid to Israel.

Parents and kids have been speaking out about the Trump administration’s cruel practice of separating families. Now is the time to be as loud as possible.

Tag @DHSgov and tell them: Families belong together.
