“They are young and can’t stand hunger” — this is the reality of life in Gaza right now. Sabreen (@sabreen_najm ) goes without meals so her children and orphaned nephew have enough to eat. Israel is starving Gazans by allowing no food or aid into the Gaza Strip, and the price of flour — the only food available— is 7-14x its pre-war price (you have to pay $100 extra for flour without maggots). Please, consider donating to Sabreen’s campaign (link in my bio) so she and her children can survive.
Today... will we eat, or will it be like yesterday?
My husband, my child, and I haven't eaten a single bite since yesterday.
Hunger isn't just an empty stomach... it's a silent pain that dwells deep inside us. 💔
We look at each other, trying to appear strong...
Each of us hides our fear so the other doesn't break down.
It's not the hunger itself that's the hardest part,
but the feeling of being ignored amidst your suffering.
But we still cling to hope. 🤲
Perhaps a prayer, a kind word, or a small act of kindness
will change this day from what it was yesterday. ✨

*this song is from the “Burka Band” in Kabul, who preform anonymously in traditional blue burkas while protesting the Taliban’s policies. Let this be a reminder that effective resistance to oppressive and brutal regimes must come, first and foremost, from the people of that country. We can support their struggle, but we’ll never bomb a country into liberation. In fact, reactionary fundamentalists like the Taliban are formed in response to the national trauma from colonial wars and unending imperialism
**I interpret the painting last slide as the triumph of nature over patriarchal imperialism. The American flag is absorbed back into the sky, and the politicians and capitalists are forced to look to the stars
This Christmas, consider donating to my friend Wajdi and his family, who lost everything in Gaza. Wajdi and is mother used to take care of stray cats before Oct 7th — now all those pets are dead, killed my the Israeli occupation, and the family is homeless and cold. Link to donate is in my bio.
If Jesus was born today, he would be in a tent, not a manger.
‼️I AM NO LONGER FUNDRAISING FOR MOHAMMED PLEASE DONATE TO HIM ON HIS INSTAGRAM
This sisyphus task is what my friend mohammedkamel1999 was doing all of us last night, trying to keep is pregnant wife and two year old son from drowning inside their tent. As you can see from the second video taken just now at an Internet cafe, it is still raining. Mohammed and his family desperately need help to be able to afford rent in a building higher up in Gaza, and they need money to buy his son, Hashim, warm clothing for the winter.
Please consider donating to Mohammed in the third link in my bio, or support by sharing. Everything helps !!

توقفت الحرب، لكننا لم نشعر بذلك؛ لأننا نعيش حروبًا متعددة يوميًا.
الحياة في الخيمة بائسة، والبحث عن الماء والدواء مهمة مُهلكة. التعليم شبه مستحيل.
نحن نعيش حياة صعبة ومُثقلة، وأملنا الوحيد هو العودة إلى روتين حياتنا الطبيعي.
The war has stopped, but we haven't felt it; we are living through many daily battles.
Life in the tent is miserable, and the search for water and medicine is an exhausting ordeal. Education is nearly impossible.
We live a difficult and burdened life, and our only hope is to return to the routine of our normal lives.#reels #palestine #viralreels #instagood #gaza #support #genocide #help
