I'm a Bshaer from northern Gaza.

We were displaced. I lost my husband, my home and my job. I have a little girl who hasn't seen her father, please just help me provide my baby's basic needs

(Pampers, milk and winter clothes).

I don't ask much I don't have a job to provide for my child's needs😔😔💔����🙏🇵🇸.

400 days of genocide

I'm writing this post on behalf of my friend Hashem @support-heshem , whose campaign has really been struggling.

One year ago, his wife, Smahan, and their three children successfully evacuated to Morocco. However, because of travel restrictions and lack of money, Hashem was forced to stay behind. Now he is enduring not only the brutality of the IOF, which has martyred several of his loved ones, but also soaring food prices and lack of adequate shelter for the impending winter.

Hashem hopes to raise enough funds to evacuate and finally reunite with his family as well as raise enough funds to support his children's education and get them treatment for the horrible trauma they've faced. He has been fundraising since March, but still has yet to reach 5% of his goal!

Please help support this Palestinian family by donating to their campaign and reading their story in Smahan's words here:

Vetted by Gaza Vetters, #102: [x]

Gaza Fights for Freedom (2019) | dir. Abby Martin

[littlevelvette]

Was talking to a 70 year old security guard at my university yesterday and I liked what he had to say to me and a couple of the younger freshmen chatting him up. I think you should hear it. I’ll paraphrase him (cutting out my half of the conversation);

“For people like us [POC] it’s always been a fight against the latest dude. Reagan and bush and Obama and trump. You know what they did when we started scaring them? They bombed American soil because they were about to piss themselves at black power. You know I can’t say out loud I was a part of that but that’s what you kids gotta do. Stay calm and build that black power, that neighbor power, that low class power against the latest dude, and when they bomb this neighborhood again that’s when you can panic, but you’ve gotta fight til then. The president was never on our side. Neither one.”

It's a 50/50 for me but it's fine however not for @lamahourani7 she has politely asked me to share her campaign so please stop a second listen to her story

"I'm Lama from Gaza, I'm 24 years old, and my husband is Mohammad... We got married in 2022 in a house full of love and happiness. Our house was beautiful, we chose everything in it carefully... We were waiting for the end of the day to go there after a tiring day of work, but the occupation did not leave us. 😔😭💔

This house was bombed with all hatred. Here we are after the genocide. We have nothing... We lost our house, our work, and our car.😭😞 We were displaced to Rafah in a tent that could not accommodate 5 people, and after the displacement from Rafah, we were displaced to Mawasi Khan Yunis again. It was a very difficult period... but now we are in Mawasi Khan Yunis in a tent that does not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer.😞😭

This is our tent, its floor is made of cardboard, as you can see, and I suffer from severe eczema due to the pollution of the air and the materials used, and the medicine is very expensive.😭💔

Urgent: My husband needs a very necessary operation and medication. Please help my husband in order for his health to improve. He is in pain.😞😭🫂🙏🙏"

Lama is indeed vetted by association through @ayoosh-gaza (vet). she knows Lama's husband.

[littlevelvette]

Unfortunately for me I don't and probably won't because my medical health one day I'll probably adopt to at least give them a childhood never got to experience with the biological parents

Now please take a second that's all I'm asking for...

even though @hildanasr1 has been fundraising on here for several months and been vetted by mohammed ayesh w gazaevacuationfunds since october 9, her family has barely received any donations.

on top of surviving under constant shelling, losing all sense of stability, living with nine people crammed into a tiny tent afflicted by snakes and insects, struggling to find adequate food every day, and the terror of being pregnant (!!) for the first time when healthcare infrastructure is constantly at the brink of collapse--hilda has to go through the demeaning, frustrating process of navigating tumblr and twitter to ask for help. she endures constant disappointment and annoyance because it's her family's best shot to survive.

this is exhausting. these people are exhausted! what else does she have to do to win our attention and sympathy?

[littlevelvette]

I know I've said this a hundred times but if you're worried about palestinian fundraisers being scams at least consider donating to MSF. It's a highly reputable organization which has broken its long-standing neutrality to denounce Israel in front of the UN. Here's all the aid MSF is providing to Gazans (documentation available in multiple languages).

What I’m gathering is the average middle class queer white tumblr user would kill themselves if they were black for one singular day

[littlevelvette]

I love this picture so much! Post it whenever I come across it.

[littlevelvette]

one of the cited threats of another Trump presidency is that more people will feel safe to be openly racist and its crazy that libs are proving this fear to be completely correct by personally sending death threats and deportation fantasies to racial minorities online for saying they don’t support genocide

[littlevelvette]

just found out that there is a sudanfunds website! like gazafunds, it is a compilation of funds for people facing genocide

[littlevelvette]

with all the talk about DIY HRT, let’s also talk about stocking up on mifepristone and misoprostol (the abortion pills). it’s worth knowing the right dosages, how to use it safely, and keeping some on hand. better to have it and not need it than the other way around. the shelf life is (at least) five years.

having abortion pills accessible is just as vital as HRT, especially with both potentially at risk of restricted access.

getting them in advance can be life-saving for you and others around you.

[littlevelvette]

anyways it’s a great day to donate to abortion funds! :)

explain to people like they're in kindergarten that the gap is so large that even if ALL third party voters had voted for her she still would've lost and they start pouting and stomping their feet because they REALLY really really wanted a chance to go off on a racist rant about arabs and blame them for everything but feel justified about it instead of realizing they're MAGA 2.0

[littlevelvette]

doesn’t matter when Palestinians die doesn’t matter they’re put in concentration camps doesn’t matter when black ppl are actually rounded up and disappeared by a bloodthirsty police state nothing matters until it happens to a middle class white queer from fucking Ohio or whatever

[littlevelvette]
