please support palestinian voices and organizations 🍉 - links and sources

hello, i hope everyone can take the time to read this and consider donating if possible!! ive recently had a few people in palestine reach out to me personally asking for donations, and i think that putting the resources here in a main central post would be a great benefit to these families in order to get them more donations. ive donated to a few of these families and organizations below, but i feel bad that i cant donate more amounts since im currently a full time college student juggling with a job at the moment. so if you can, please please please considering donating or reblogging their pages, so that they can get the help they need!!! i will keep this post pinned so that it is the first thing seen on my account

I hope this post can come across as helpful to someone, the last thing i want is to speak over palestinian voices that NEED to be heard, and i sincerely hope this post doesnt do that. so many people have lost everything in their lives: loved ones, work, school, food, their homes, the list is endless. PLEASE consider donating or speading the word or even just researching on your own time from current news sources. please let me know if i got anything in this post incorrect, i want to make sure this post is a good source for people to look at.

here are a few people who i have donated to that reached out to me for help (i will try my best to update this list as people comment below this post, but i urge you to check the comments section too):

me after not submitting a single response to other students' answers in these weekly discussion forums which will result in a 0 for participation but i don't even care. i'm just not gonna do it

will forever be on my soapbox abt how schooling should not be online outside of class hours ever. if i want to be in contact with you i'll come to your office hours. i don't want my professors to have 24/7 access to me. updates on stuff to do. ability to just throw piles upon piles of reading on you. i think tech has a place in learning for SURE but i think that place is not taking over the entirety of student's lives. there's no period of separation anymore. you constantly have school at your fingertips. it doesn't feel like you can have "off" hours where you hang out with friends or party or just fucking Chill Out anymore. the work is always looming and lingering.

Being semi verbal is weird, I just don't have anything to say most of the time. I like seeing everyone's little comments on dr stuff and I wish I could write my own more often and look less like an automatic shuichi themed blog. I just,,, head empty. Instead of working communication my brain filled the space with hyperfixation.

it's insane how much true crime content i can listen to when I'm drawing 😭

[raytorosaurus]

guys im just saying you don't have to believe literally everything you hear about second-hand online...also not everything needs to be Discussed Online and Made Public...there is a point where that just turns into cyberbullying...........

tumblr is great for meeting and talking to people from all sorts of places/backgrounds, but it'll never live up to meeting the very diverse groups of people you meet in online college courses.

with my school starting this week I've been doing a lot of 'get to know your online classmates' (cuz when I got the option of in-person or online classes, my introverted ass immediately chose the latter) and let me tell you, these fuckers (affectionately) in one of my classes are the strangest, most ragtag put together people I have ever met.

First off, you have me. Mentally ill, Overwatch player with insomnia and too many stuffed animals and obsession with strawberry milk (I say with said drink sitting next to me, completely gone despite just pouring it)

My teacher is a fellow she/they who plays Call of Duty and reads poetry and worked at my local renaissance festival over the summer.

Then there's a physical therapist/rock climber named Gon. (I have had to refrain from making hunter x hunter references because I have a feeling that I am the only person in this class who watches anime and would understand the reference).

Three people majoring in Mortuary science while three others majoring in nursing; mind you one of the nursing majors has been a certified nurse assistant for 29 years and has 4 adult children...

A 15 year old??

A comedy screen writer whose very open about how his parents were more disappointed with him wanting to be professional comedy writer than coming out of the closet.

And my favorite addition. A girl who wants to major in either veterinary medicine or forensic/autopsy science (two sides of the same coin I guess). Has pet rats, 20+ species of tarantulas, and 4 cats all of which she calls her zoo. Weightlifts, plays Animal Crossing, enjoys anything horror-adjacent, and taxidermies her departed pets.

This is a group made to survive an apocalypse together and I am here for it. We have a sprinkle of all the crazy and then some. (if any of these people somehow find this post, hi i'm that one person majoring in art and has a cat name cheeto lol please don't tell teach. if you're my teacher and you saw this post... no you didn't... also please don't look at the other things i've posted I beg you.)

Read some of August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle (Century Cycle)

For a long time, the August Wilson Theatre used to be the only theatre on Broadway named after a Black person. Currently, only three out of forty-one theatres on Broadway are named after Black people, two of which were renamed in 2022 (The James Earl Jones Theatre and the Lena Horne Theatre respectively). The August Wilson Theatre was only renamed in 2005, just under two decades ago.

August Wilson was a very notable Black American playwright. One of his most notable series of works continues to be his Century Cycle (sometimes known as the Pittsburgh Cycle). It is a series of plays that focuses on the Black community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (for nine plays) and Chicago, Illinois (for one of them) over the course of a century. Two of the works you may have heard of are Ma Rainey's Black Bottom and Fences as they have received film adaptations.

(Interestingly, James Earl Jones was in the original Broadway cast of Fences. His performance as Troy Maxson is absolutely masterful. You can watch a clip here.)

One of the better ways to experience plays is through watching them live or recorded. However, many plays are published so that they can be read as well! (In order to perform them, rights must be acquired).

These are contemporary plays, so the language is easier to understand than older plays that one might encounter in an English class. I have listed them in chronological order of when they were written. In parentheses, I have listed the year written and the year set.

If you click on a title, it will take you to a PDF.

Jitney (1982/1970s)

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom (1984/1920s)

Fences (1985/1950s)

Joe Turner's Come and Gone (1986/1910s)

The Piano Lesson (1987/1930s)

Two Trains Running (1990/1960s)

Seven Guitars (1995/1940s)

King Hedley II (1999/1980s)

Gem of the Ocean (2003/1900s)

Radio Golf (2005/1990s)

I'm still trying to find PDFs for Seven Guitars, King Hedley II, and Gem of the Ocean. If anyone happens to have PDFs on hand I would really appreciate it if you could add them!!

I will leave you all with some quotes that Mr. Wilson told the Paris Review (interview here), that he and Rob Penny "founded the Black Horizons Theater in Pittsburgh with the idea of using the theater to politicize the community or, as we said in those days, to raise the consciousness of the people." (emphasis mine). He also told them that he thinks that "my plays offer (White Americans) a different way to look at Black Americans. For instance, in Fences they see a garbageman, a person they don't really look at, although they see a garbageman every day. By looking at Troy's life, White people find out that the content of this Black garbageman's life is affected by the same things – love, honor, beauty, betrayal, duty. Recognizing that these things are as much part of his life as theirs can affect how they think about and deal with Black people in their lives." (emphasis mine).

Thank you for taking the time to read this post, have a theatrical time of day!

it's kind of fascinating because maybe a few months ago if i was having a breakdown i had someplace to put it. but i got to university and i was like totally happy so i never questioned the fact that i no longer had anywhere? like the last time i seriously considered what i was going to do when this happened was the talk about putting me in semi proximity to my sister but i can't exactly talk to her about this. there's fucking nowhere.
