If you appreciate that today is musician Brian Eno's 77th birthday but you don't also recognize and grieve the *ongoing* horror of the Nakba in Palestine which started on May 15 1948 at the hands of colonial Zionism, a movement originally based in Western Europe, then we are not friends.
Eno would feel the same way, look no further than his public statements on this.
Panels above from @voxummah illuminate the basic history, @mosab_abutoha posts currently and @dmvpym for a weekend action,
and also has a pinned post linking to a new online class understanding this history.

stay in the lane
across the sky
get the drums
hear the strings
we feel our
wheels turning
we hear we
know we do
each others
ways because
they are down
deep the same
let's get this
life right for
us
the set goes on/hits some right spots nice/but you'd only know/if you were to happen upon them/like I did
