If you're in London this Wednesday, get your tickets for The Shroud Maker, a play written by Ahmed Masoud, a Palestinian playwright from Gaza.
Please support Palestinians to tell our own stories, in our own voices, with our own talents and potential—because opening your mind and heart to indigenous storytelling will open your heart to a truth hidden for so long in the fog of empire's carefully crafted brainwashing.

Nobody needs Ed Sheeran to be a political philosopher. But when artists/actors accumulate extraordinary wealth and cultural power within the same systems in which others are dispossessed, silenced or killed, I think it’s entirely fair to ask where they stand.

Azeez Al-Shaair wrote the name of Wafaa Akila on his eye black at a recent NFL game. Wafaa was an 8-year-old Palestinian girl killed in an Israeli strike on her first day of school.

Omg this keeps getting worse. He is apologising for his apology, to parents who had the privilege to bring their kids to a concert to watch him play his little Guitar and sing?
Do you understand how dystopian that is when there are parents in Gaza who have to WATCH their children DIE because they are either being starved to death or because they are being murdered by the IDF. Is he stupid or something? I actually don’t understand what I’m watching.
@nypost gaza's doctors had to invent an acronym, wcnsf, wounded child, no surviving family. about 40,000 kids there have lost one or both parents, per unicef. ed's version of abandoned is his family telling him to skip philly
Last year I saw a video of a Palestinian father frantically carrying the dismembered remains of his child’s body in a plastic shopping bag, desperately trying to get them to a hospital
