Gaza Funds

radioactive-earthshine

Evidently a large number of fanon enjoyers are now upset and claim that even calling out racism on a joke post, no matter how gracious and civil, is bullying and violent behavior that makes fandom unenjoyable.

You know what makes fandom actively violent?

Racism.

Not calling it out.

If you voted, please take the time to read about Nader’s story.

Nader @abdalsalam2000 is only seventeen and has been displaced more than ten times because of the genocide in Gaza. During the ceasefire, him and his family were finally allowed to return home, but found their home destroyed by bombs. Since the ceasefire ended, they’ve been forced to flee again, and are living in fear from the bombs all day and night. Just yesterday, Nader told me that he and his brother narrowly escaped death from bombs that were dropped on them. The reality in Gaza is that this can happen at any time. They are living with fear and trauma most of us can never understand.

Nader is fundraising for his family of eight to survive the war and hopefully evacuate. The cost of food and necessities is extremely high, and the destruction of the healthcare system means medical care is difficult to access. Nader’s father has suffered from cancer since before the genocide started, and if he doesn’t get the treatment he needs his illness will continue to get worse. They also have a little girl with them, Nader’s niece Iman, who is only one year old and has lived with war her whole life. Please give them a chance and donate to help save their lives 🇵🇸❤️

€16,789 raised out of 50,000, will you help them get to 17,000 today? ❤️🇵🇸

My name is Aisha, a mother of eight children. I write to you as I struggle to protect them from hunger, cold, and the death that follows us every moment. We are living in the heart of hell—under relentless bombing, without shelter, without food, without medicine. War has taken everything from us, even our dreams.

My daughter lost her husband—he was martyred before her eyes by the Israeli army, leaving her child an orphan before he could even speak his first words. Our home, the only place that once gave us safety, has been completely destroyed. Now, we have nothing but the sky raining fire upon us and the ground that can barely bear our pain.

My youngest child has a sebaceous cyst near his ear and needs urgent surgery, but how can I provide him with treatment when we don’t even have food to eat? How can I save my children from hunger and illness when I have nothing left but my voice to plead for help?

Please, do not leave us alone in this suffering. Any help, no matter how small, could save my children’s lives. Your donation could give them a chance to survive this nightmare we live in every day.

Help us… Save my children… Do not leave us to die.

It's 7am and I'm at work. Time for another valid, "this is why the Greek Classics Fandom can't stand Ice's Black ass" take!

patrochilles-or-bust

It's no longer that time! My bad! In line with what I've heard of Epic's questionable casting decisions due to its (however unintended but clearly not considered and is still, therefore,) racist connotations, I want to bring up my perspective of the important purpose of the white, western perspective of race in The Odyssey !

The narrative of a "strong, hardened strategist that committed violent imperialism and war crimes that was key to winning a long war, overcoming the treacheries and battles of returning home, so that he can reclaim the family, life, and land that were rightfully his" would sound very bold and adventurous and encouraging to white men that we want to encourage to become soldiers of imperialism! You went off to war, you struggled, and you came back a hero reunited with his family! Yeah!

Okay. Two things.

1) The Iliad and The Odyssey are not innately "pro-war" "pro-adventure" stories. Odysseus didn't even wanna go 🤣 and he was not a jolly man when he got back 🤣 but that narrative doesn't sell you on what I want, does it? You might not wanna go if you agree with Achilles, or see the suffering of Odysseus, as it is actually told! So I have to find a way to sell you on it!

2) this sort of story told from the perspective of a non-white would have been HORRIFYING for a society like this. Imagine- and yes, I'm gonna do it: imagine the story of a strategic Black man who'd gone off and done the things Odysseus did, was intelligent, determined, traumatized and bloodthirsty enough to hack it back, returning to kill the men imposing on his land and take his life back. Imagine this version of the story told in a time where the White Western world was rife with the desire to colonize and kill and return victorious- imagine the implication that someone you've deemed lesser had the capability, intelligence, and anger to pull this off, and therefore against you. 👀 That's not as fun as when it was you in the hero's seat! This wouldn't have been a very popular story!

I could do the same thing with Epic. Odysseus being Black would have changed the game in terms of how the story would be perceived. Think of the implications of the social history of Black resilience, or of a Black Penelope at home trying to hold down the fort while white men try to undermine her! Or of a white Circe and white Calypso trying to keep him- of the unspoken power that white women oft have over men of color! That would have revealed a different story, even with the same narrative! And a lot of people probably wouldn't have liked it!

Right. My point here is that no matter what any of you say, the society you live in will always have an effect on how you perceive a story, and how that story is told. You can't always just shove diversity into a story and think that it'll be the same. It won't be. You have to deal with everything that comes with, otherwise you're just haphazardly telling something that you might not even think you were saying. And sometimes what you're enforcing... might be pretty bad. 😅

I KNEW I wasn’t the only one who felt weird about the casting of EPIC. I love the musical and the songs are great but why does the black characters fall into a racist stereotype, and it’s like all the well known ones too. That’s mainly the reason I haven’t really listened to the songs with calypso and Antonious because they fall into very common black stereotypes about the sexual and tempting black woman or the violent black man which were stereotypes used to justify violence against black people. I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to assume anything and I wanted to give my credits to the singers because they’re very good at singing but I just can’t stomach it. You worded it way better than I ever could, I’m just glad I’m not the only one who felt weird about the implications.

ICE raids happening in Chicago on Tuesday January 21st. Get organized and get prepared.

what to do if you are arrested or detained by law enforcement, a resource from the National Immigration Law Center, available in English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Haitian Creole, Korean, Tagalog, and Vietnamese

immigration law help, database of free and low-cost immigration lawyers, searchable by zip code as well as by detention facility if you or a loved one has already been detained

report an ICE raid or arrest in Chicagoland to the Resurrection Project, a Chicago nonprofit that works on immigration justice as well as housing affordability and other community needs

for those of us watching in horror from the sidelines, one of the best things we can do right now is donate to immigrant justice legal services, like the National Immigrant Justice Center or a local group in your community

in the longer term, we can all help by speaking out in support of immigrants and against these xenophobic deportation campaigns — in public discourse and in caring but firm one-on-one conversations with loved ones who've been swayed by hateful anti-immigrant rhretoric
