So cool! Would you please take a moment to read Fadel Al Dani's @fadel-aldani1 story?

This is Fadel's family, he is raising money to get them all out of harm's way. Fadel is a 23 year old university student studying Information Technology who urgently needs our help. He has been injured from shelling, the shrapnel is still in his body and needs medical care that he is unable to get in Gaza. Fadel and his family have been displaced several times but nowhere is safe. Funds are going to getting his family to safety and his medical needs.

Please donate anything you can to help Fadel and his family, everything counts! If you can't donate, please share this post or his campaign. With continued effort, we can help save lives. Thank you.

Cassandra Cain is groundbreaking as a character because she wasn’t invented as a supporting character to a white man but her own protagonist. Sure, in the broader DC universe she was a part of the Batfamily but almost immediately she was given a solo ongoing where she was the titular figure. Batman was made a recurring side character in her own narrative. This is super rare in big 2 superhero comics. Most of the time women (especially women of colour) are introduced as a supporting character for a male character story, or as part of a white male dominated team, before organically gaining the popularity to ‘earn’ her a spinoff.

But with Cass they trusted that this stubborn, neurodivergent, Asian teenage girl was badass and compelling enough as a superhero to sustain her own solo series. And you know what? They were right. batgirl 2000 (her original run) is the first and longest individual batgirl run in DC comics history. Comic readers loved her.

And this only was possible because of a diverse writers room with a drive to push creative boundaries and a willingness to fight with editorial if necessary. Joe Illidge (the first black editor for Batman) recalled that the Bat creative team had to fight to have a non-white Batgirl. But they fought for it, they won, and Cass demonstrated that risks and moves towards more diverse comics pays off. And the fact that after countless attempts to silence her, ignore her fans, and pretend she doesn’t exist, Cass is back with a vengeance and a new solo only further proves they were right. Despite what the anti-woke crowd may cry bold, progressive storytelling can and does work, especially when the creative team believes in the character and plot and the people with the money let them do their thing.

Sanaa reached out to me to help share her fundraiser! Her family is suffering from medical issues, and have no income, while prices in Gaza have skyrocketed.

They've only raised €6,036 out of their €50,000 goal so far. Please consider donating to them!

If you donate, reminder I am drawing for those who donate to Gaza fundraisers or donated esims! Donate and get some art! (more info on the post linked here)

Their campaign has been verified by @gazavetters (#192 on the list)

what a week of all weeks to drop this line on us.

Iyad Sohbe (@iyadsgaza) and Ruba Abushahan (@rubashsblog), who are long time friends and neighbours, have been displaced again! They stayed in Nuseirat, but the IOF had advanced in their area, so they had to flee and leave their personal belongings behind. Iyad's phone broke in the midst.

They are in Zawaida and they need to purchase basic necessities. It is also winter. It is freezing. Living in the tent does not keep families warm, especially when there is no heater available and no electricity to keep them running. Even if there is, power outrages would occur. There is also limited medicine and it is expensive.

So please donate and share! PayPal has announced on October 7th, that fundraising services has shut down! Those with an existing one have by January 12th, 2025, to complete the entire amount. We have less than 3 months to raise the goal of 60K so we need to raise $600 USD per day!

At the same time, Iyad and Ruba cannot afford to start all over. They have been raising funds with GFM, but the crowdfunding platform has terminated Iyad's fundraiser of 11K and Ruba has lost access to hers at 27K!

You can match me! I have given $10 USD, but you're more than welcome to give any amount. Even $1 USD! You can also participate in an art raffle hosted by @/transformers4palestine. The 2nd round of winners will be declared on November 20th, so check it out, join in, and be part of the fun!

Verification: #90 for Ruba and #173 for Iyad in the Spreadsheet. (Keep in mind that the document has not been updated and does not reflect the current fundraiser. You can learn about it here.)

Tagging for reach. Please leave a reply if you wish to be removed. Thank you. Free Palestine.

look i'm not denying that comics are frequently bad, confusing, or doing things that make no sense, but have you considered that if you primarily get your information about comics from a) out-of-context panels b) people complaining about comics of course you're going to think they're bad and confusing
