There is literally ONE guy who makes these windows. I interviewed him once. It takes him months to make a window. He does everything by hand. It makes this even more difficult to stomach.

I dream of the day armed Palestinian resistance to foreign invaders & occupiers in their homeland is treated by American media with the same sympathy & lionization that Ukrainian resistance is rightly portrayed.
Highlighting the double standards of international response to Ukrainian armed resistance compared to other non-White struggles such as Palestine is not a competition for attention. Itโs highlighting how inherently racist attitudes and perceptions are to our struggles.
What Ukrainian civilians are doing is armed resistanceโa completely justifiable turn to violence to defend themselves. Americans have quickly understood that. I hope they can also be as understanding when non-Europeans turn to arms as a last resort in their struggles for freedom.
