We @7amleh are hosting the 7th annual Palestine Digital Activism Forum next week! Make sure to register while you still can at https://t.co/7o91RxKNkn
Lots of amazing virtual sessions for those that can't be in person!
The BBC’s coverage of Israel’s Al-Aqsa raids was not neutral, or even accurate. It was meant to lull audiences into accepting Israeli violence as always justified, and Palestinian resistance as always abhorrent, argues journalist and author @Jonathan_K_Cook
Our senior staff attorney, Meera Shah, told @AJEnglish:
"We recognize that the courts — and especially this Court — cannot be counted on to protect our fundamental rights. It’s only by organizing that we win, which is why it’s critical to keep boycotting." #BDS
Somehow the ruling class always tries to blame our issues on helping out those with the least, rather than taking responsibility for their greed. $1,400 was a drop in the bucket...
Inflation Rate
🇪🇺: 10.9%
🇩🇪: 10.9%
🇬🇧: 10.1%
🇮🇹: 9.4%
🇪🇸: 9%
🇮🇪: 8.6%
🇺🇸: 8.2%
No. Inflation is not going up in the U.S. because the working class got a $1,400 check 19 months ago. Multinational corporations are jacking up prices worldwide.
FYI, journalists,
It’s okay to say “Palestinian resistance fighters” not “gunmen” or “shooter.”
Resistance fighter shows the political underpinning of armed confrontation & it shows the gap in power structure. But it also does what is always avoided, acknowledging Israeli abuse.
Meta, Let Palestine Speak! For years, Palestinian voices and narratives have been systematically silenced and censored on Meta's platforms (Facebook & Instagram). Enough is enough! Please send a letter to Meta's executives: https://t.co/ZFw8OCD1Am #LetPalestineSpeak
Noname, Brian Eno, Patti Smith, FKA Twigs — more musicians than ever are supporting Palestinian freedom by refusing to play in Israel or at complicit events!
By withholding cultural labor, musicians draw attention to and avoid normalizing Israeli apartheid and occupation ✊🎤
HUGE NEWS: After tech workers across the US protested our companies’ contracts with Israel on 9/8, we forced @google to admit its tech is used by the Israeli military—which it had denied. This shows the power of collective action & we're just getting started!
#NoTechForApartheid
The systemic silencing of Palestinian voices starts to be fully documented. One day we will link the thousand dots of those who got vilified, threatened, punished, demoted, for crying loud justice for the Palestinians; and we will call it for what it is: Anti-Palestinian Racism.
The root cause behind Meta's over-moderation of the Palestinian content is the Israeli cyber unit pressure through escalating tens of thousands of requests annually to take down the Palestinian content. SM giants comply with 90% of these requests.

"Economic deplatforming refers to the deliberate prevention of financial flows through digital platforms. This impacts businesses and freelancers in places such as Palestine"

"Israeli restrictions on movement have created an economic chokehold for Palestinian businesses, digital platforms offer a way to overcome this, but instead they exacerbate the dire situation"

The occupation court just decided: My community will be destroyed. I live in Massafer Yatta, Palestine. An unjust 23 year long trial ended today with a verdict of mass eviction. The army can now place us on trucks, 2,400 people, and expel us from our ancient villages, one by one.
Use the recommended hashtags from Palestinian organizations such as #AlAqsaUnderAttack and #HandsOffAlAqsa to check the updates and share it within your circles until we get a fair coverage from the International mainstream media 5/5
#FreePalestine
Interact with Palestinian-related content & follow Palestinian activists who are sharing their stories & narratives on social media & help them challenge the biased algorithms. Keep in mind that SM companies already started to suppress Palestine-related content 4/5
