“why people saying “ALL EYES ON RAFAH”?”

“where is it?”

“what’s happening there?”

🔻 Rafah is located on the border of Egypt & the LAST place for refugees
🔻 everyone in Gaza is displaced in Rafah now (around 1.7 million)
🔻 Israel still attacking Rafah, burnt people alive

BREAKING: Israel is heavily bombing Rafah, where more than 1.7 million Palestinians are trapped, in the middle of the night. Again.

The genocide continues, aided and abetted by America and NATO.

Cal Poly Humboldt’s occupation is being ignored by most media and organizations, perhaps because its students are primarily working class and employing the most advanced militant tactics we’ve seen in the country. Classes have been canceled the rest of the semester…

The flame of the student movement continues to spread 🔥🇵🇸

A massive encampment of students and supporters has taken over UC Berkeley!

[antifa🔻girlfriend @lllliatttt]

speaking of tortured poets, today seems like as good a day as any to read, really sit with, and (crucially) be inspired to action by the work of palestinian writers, who are being executed, imprisoned, starved, displaced, and *literally* tortured

Students at @Columbia began an occupation on campus where the Gaza Solidarity Encampment is going strong 12+ hrs later, with hundreds picketing the university’s complicity in genocide to demand divesting from weapons manufacturers and ending repression against student organizers.

[Talia Jane @taliaotg]

At around 4am today, hundreds of @Columbia students descended on the main lawn and launched the Gaza Solidarity Encampment.

Nearly 60 tents were erected in minutes, with plans to remain until the school divests from Israel’s genocide of Palestine.

They say that tomorrow is Eid, summer is gone, winter has arrived, then New Year, then summer again, Ramadan and Eid, and I stumble every day in a whole world designed from my nightmares.

There are a thousand soldiers and a thousand shells between me and my home.
