“The targeting of civilians is a war crime, no matter who does it, and i urge the international community to work to protect the innocents on both sides of this conflict.”

Sure, this sheet is mostly the lake, but I didn’t want to leave the lake boring either! Here are some close-ups of the sheet as a whole—not just the streets.

Not only am I a proud Latino, but I’m also a proud Muslim! And not only that! I’m a proud Shi’ah Muslim! This plays a major role in the way I operate and the way I imagine this city in its entirety. Here we have some close-ups of Qur’anic verses and Muslim phrases that I decided to dress the lake up with.

The first one is verse 7:43 of the Qur’an—my favorite verse. “All praise due to God, the One Who guided us to this, and we could not have guided ourselves to it had God not guided us.” That’s my rough translation—you can find better online. As a convert to Islam, this verse resonates heavily with me. I was 17 when I became Muslim. I was about 23 when I came to understand that I leaned more Shi’ah overall. And it’s all history from there. Alhamdulillah.

The second image has part of the Shahadah (Testimony of Faith): لا إله إلا الله (There is no god but God). It also highlights some streets!

The third image is another verse of the Qur’an (76:3). This time I thought of it randomly and decided to add it to my map. I thought it went well with the concept.

‫إِنَّا هَدَیۡنَـٰهُ ٱلسَّبِیلَ إِمَّا شَاكِراً وَإِمَّا كَفُورًا﴿ ٣ ﴾‬

“Indeed, We guided mankind to The Path whether he is grateful or ungrateful.”

Again, guidance. For me it is everything.

The last two images show the other parts of the Shahadah—especially if you’re a Shi’ah Muslim. They say “محمد رسول الله” — Muhammad is the Messenger of God — and “علي ولي الله” — Ali (ibn Abi Talib) is the chosen guardian of God.

They also highlight many more streets! I just love when I can see who I am in my maps.

Anyway, on to the next sheet!

This is the second part as we continue this spotlight series on some rather amazing SWANASA (South West Asia, North Africa, and South Asia) actors that you should know, whether they are well known or not. What they have in common is that not only are they are all terrific artists but wonderful human beings that have come to my attention recently in their art and advocacy. Here are the eight that…

More than a dozen state lawmakers and activists in the U.S.—including actor Cynthia Nixon—have started a hunger strike calling for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. The five state lawmakers taking part in the hunger strike beginning Monday are Delaware State Rep. Madinah Wilson-Anton, New York Rep. Zohran Mamdani, Oklahoma Rep. Mauree Turner, Virginia Rep. Sam Rasoul, and Michigan Rep. Abraham Aiyash. They are joined by Nixon and various faith and community leaders.[...]

She hopes the hunger strike will “bring attention to the fact that the U.S. government, our President, and our congressional leaders are funding this policy of starvation.” “We send American taxpayer money to bomb communities in Gaza and I don’t think our president is using his leverage to the extent that he could to bring about a permanent ceasefire,” she says. “We’re seeing the impact of that, which is no food, no water.” [...]

Actor and activist Nixon will participate in the hunger strike for two days. Nixon is one of more than 260 artists who previously signed an open letter calling for President Joe Biden and Congress to commit to a ceasefire. Speaking at a press conference outside the White House on Monday, Nixon spoke of high civilian casualties in Gaza. “None of this is normal," she said. "None of this is routine and none of this can be allowed to continue.”

Sumaya Awad, a Palestinian-American activist and director of strategy and communications at Adalah Justice Project, referenced the recent shooting of three Palestinian-American college students in Vermont. “This is what happens when we don’t support a permanent ceasefire and our government continues to dehumanize Palestinians,” she said at the press conference[...]

“The United States is not simply a witness to this genocide. It's an actor in this genocide,” says Mamdani[...]

President Joe Biden is pushing to supply Israel with an additional $14 billion in military aid. The U.S. has dismissed the assertion that Israel is committing genocide. Several genocide experts, as well as three dozen U.N. experts, have argued that there is a serious risk of genocide.
