what a grim palm sunday it is
not to be raised catholic on main but for the unawares today palm sunday. it's the celebration of the triumphant entry of jesus into jerusalem and marks the begining of holy week, or passion week, the week leading up to the crucifiction and resurrection. if jesus were to come today, as a palestinian man, there would be no palms woven and waved to greet and honor him. he wouldn't even be able to go into the city. he came to celebrate passover. he wouldn't have been able to. there would just be death, and starvation. murder, genocide. and yet christians worldwide turn their back on palestine now. there's nothing i can really say that others have not already said and better than i could ever.
if you are able to i think it would be a worthwhile commemoration of the season to donate in any way you can to palestine:
