Some helpful graphics about anti-racism and white supremacy that will help you understand how it works. Hopefully that understanding will also help prevent you from falling down those pipelines and keep you from perpetuating those systems through thoughtless comments and microaggressions.
I want to add on that racism is a spectrum, not a binary.
There aren't just anti-racists and white supremacists. There are many people between those two groups who consciously and unconsciously project their biases, who proudly wear the badge of racism while there are also others who deny they're racist despite making racists comments, jokes, or by repeating racist rhetoric
Theres this Black author named Barnor Hesse who came up with the 8 White Identities to describe some of the people you can find on that spectrum. Those identities give a useful framework to figure out where you lie on the spectrum of racism.
Beyond that, racist violence is also a spectrum. The people over at The Equality Institute gave us a helpful framework to see how each layer of this violence builds into genocide. It's called the Pyramid of White Supremacy.
The idea is that you need the foundational bottom layers in order to build higher. You can not justify Violence against a group for example without first normalizing Indifference, Minimisation, and Discrimination against them.
Another good resource is this site. It's a book on white supremacy that's been formatted into a website so that it could be more interactive. It's entirely free too.
This website is a long-time dream finally bearing fruit, a needed remix of the widely circulated article WHITE SUPREMACY CULTURE origina
As somebody who is more of a fan of Marvel characters, I would watch this superman movie over the pentagon funded shlock of the marvel cinematic universe.
Before the war, I lived with my parents, my brother, and my sister in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood of Gaza City. Our life was simple. We didn’t have much, but we had enough. Our home wasn’t big, but it was where we felt safe.
Every morning, my brother and sister went to school, and I went about my own daily routine. In the evenings, we would all sit together in the living room, talk about our day, and sometimes watch TV when the electricity was on. On weekends, we visited relatives, or just stayed home sharing food and conversations.
It wasn’t a perfect life, but it was normal. We had our small joys family meals, birthdays, laughter, even the quiet moments when nothing special was happening. That life, as simple as it was, meant everything to us.
Our home between before and after 🥺💔
The Day Everything Changed
When the bombing started, our lives turned upside down overnight. During the first week of the war, we had to run from our home in Shuja'iyya. We left in a hurry, carrying almost nothing with us. At that moment, I didn’t realize it would be the last time I’d see our house the way it was.
We moved to the Rimal neighborhood, thinking maybe it would be safer there. But it was there that we received the news that broke us completely: our home the place that held all our memories, our laughter, our life had been destroyed. Flattened to the ground.
Everything we had worked for, every piece of furniture, every photo, every little thing that made up our life, was gone in a moment. It wasn’t just walls and a roof it was the only place we felt safe, and now it was nothing but rubble💔💔💔
The Ongoing Struggle
Since that day, we’ve been on the move, never staying in one place for long. From Rimal to Al-Zawada, then to Rafah we’ve been displaced four times already. And with every move, we carry less with us, because there’s almost nothing left to carry.
Most nights we sleep on the floor, and sometimes in tents. The nights are freezing cold, and the days are unbearably hot. There’s no electricity, no clean water, no proper toilets. Even getting food has become a battle sometimes we wait for hours just to get a piece of bread to share.
We lost everything our jobs, our home, our income, and with it, a part of our dignity. What hurts the most is the constant fear. Every sound makes us wonder if it’s the next bomb, the next loss, the next goodbye.
We used to have dreams about the future. Now, all we dream about is making it to tomorrow alive 😪💔
As of today, April 15, 2025, the latest satellite images of our home show that it has been completely destroyed
Why We Are Asking for Help
We are the Anas family like many families in Gaza ordinary people who only wanted peace, a safe home, and a chance to live in dignity. But the war has taken everything from us: our home, our land, our jobs, our dreams, our stability… even our sleep.
It's hard to write this. It's hard to ask for help. But we are desperate.

Ban fireworks; not only because they're annoying as fuck, but also because we aren't actually independent. We merely traded one group of aristocrats for another. Happy 4th 🙂

We are currently facing an unimaginable and heartbreaking situation in Gaza. After receiving orders from the Israeli Forces to evacuate our area, we were forced to leave our tent, running for safety while bombs rained down around us. We fled with nothing, seeking refuge in another area that, unfortunately, is just as unsafe, leaving us exposed to constant danger.
Now, we are living in tent whicg needs new setting, enduring the cold, rain, and the constant fear of more attacks. The lack of basic necessities like food, clean water, and medical supplies is taking a heavy toll on us. Prices for essential goods have skyrocketed, and it’s becoming impossible to meet even the most basic needs for survival.
We are urgently asking for help. We need immediate support to provide food, shelter, medical aid, and funds to help us get through these difficult days. Without assistance, our survival is uncertain, and we are reaching out to anyone who can offer help in these desperate times.
If you are able to contribute, whether it’s through donations, sharing post, or offering any kind of support, it will make a life-saving difference. Your generosity can help us stay alive and find hope amidst this crisis.
Please, stand with us during this devastating time and help us survive the hardships we are facing. Every bit of support counts, and we are truly grateful for anything you can do.
Thank you for your compassion and solidarity.
