It’s uncanny how similar Trump is acting like Hitler. People are now doing the Nazi salute. They’re drawing the symbol. The KKK was seen in Kentucky asking people to join them. ICE has been ripping families apart. Companies have pulled back Diversity Initiatives. We’re no longer part of WHO and there won’t be any communication from the CDC at least until February 1st. We’re being censored and the news can’t be trusted. Thousands of Americans didn’t know there were protests against Trump yesterday outside the U.S. Quotes from The Handmaid’s Tale and Anne Frank have been compared to what’s going on right now.

According to The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Studies and Prevention the U.S. has officially been given a red flag alert for Genocide.

I’m exhausted but I will never stop being angry.

For everyone who's sad the Olympics is ending, saying such things as "what will I ever watch now? what will I do, there are no more sports?!" : Watch the Paralympics? Please, watch the Paralympics! It takes place between August 28th and September 8th. Disabled athletes deserve to be hyped up, too!

Hi, my name is Naomi, and I’m from Texas. I’m organizing this fundraiser on behalf of my friend, Ahmed Abu Al-Rish, who is in Gaza. This fundraiser is meant to help him and his family escape the genocide.

“Hello, my name is Ahmed, 19 years old from Gaza. I finished high school with a high average and a very good grade, and because of the genocide war on Gaza, I was deprived of enrolling in university. I had dreams and ambitions to study photographic design, but I was deprived of all of that because of the genocide war on Gaza. I was living the best days of my youth. But with the beginning of this war, I became unable to live my normal life. At least our warm house sheltered me and my family until it was bombed for the first time, that damned night. Our house has become like a ghost town. We continued to seek refuge from death there until we were besieged and displaced from our safety under fire to a tent (shelter) in the bitter cold of winter, with the lack of basic necessities of life (water pollution, high cost of living, disease, insect infestation,

‏malnutrition,

‏Difficulty of movement, overcrowding), and many other daily difficulties, especially with the significant increase in prices. This was not the first time we had to be displaced. We moved again from a tent in Rafah to another tent in Khan Yunis. I then returned to our destroyed home to repair what we could to find shelter for my family, despite not having all the basic necessities of life (destroyed sanitation infrastructure and water lines, destroying any form of life). Please help me achieve my dream of completing my academic career at university and for my family to survive this genocide and escape to a safe place. And travel ❤️❤️”

Alright. I got this ask a while ago and have been waiting on some form of verification.

It's still Yet To Be Verified by one of the usual blogs ( @90-ghost, @nabulsi or @el-shab-hussein)

However reverse image search did not turn up anything suspicious. See screen shot below.

Given this I will post this Gofundme.

Use discretion and donate of you feel comfortable doing so. If you cannot donate, please Share so the message can reach more people.

Amidst all the images coming out of palestine of death and destruction created by the zionist occupation, i think it is important that we take a moment to remember palestine as it was- seen and captured through the eyes of talented photographers like Shahed @shahednhall and remember exactly what was senselessly lost in the past few months.

This is Al-Azhar university, where Shahed used to study. She was an exemplary student, and used to get regularly invited by her teachers to give lectures.

Since the university was bombed and destroyed by the IOF, all she has left are these pictures. Even through all the violence and death around her though, she still makes sure to keep up with her studies through the university's online programme.

This is a shop Shahed had visited only some time before october. She told me it was run by an artist who painted these beautiful home items, and engraved them by hand with customers names. Shahed had photographed them because they were so eye-catching and beautiful, and had sent the woman her photos so she could use them to promote the shop.

Shahed has told me this shop isnt there any more. She is currently trying to get in touch with the woman who used to run this shop again, but shahed doesn't know if she is even alive or not.

Shahed has an eye for beauty in all things, and it shows in her work and in conversation. It has taken on a different meaning now when so much of everything she knows has been stolen by the occupation from her and other palestinians like her.

In her own words:

"As you know, I like to photograph a lot, everyone liked my photography. I was filming everything because a memory can never come back again. This sentence is not understood by many. I am happy because I photograph everything."

What had been a hobby of collecting moments for her has now become something of an archive of all the things in Palestine that have been lost to the zionist occupation.

Shahed's outlook on her photography tends to colour our conversation as well. She finds it is more productive to talk to me about her hope for a better future, rather than all the bleakness around her right now.

"Yes, because I see inside every picture of new hope, I feel a great motivation that I will survive to see that life is more beautiful than what I live at the moment. I seek to return to a life that is more beautiful than the one we live now, a very difficult life because it has turned black and white."

I don't know how anyone can look at her photos and think of anything but hope

The mainstream media in the west and elsewhere can lie all they like- but we will know always that palestine was and is a land full of beautiful people. Never forget that the death, illness and destruction in palestine today was something imposed upon them by the colonizers, and has been imposed upon them for decades.

Shahed doesn't like to share images of misery with me, but please remember that she and her family are suffering right now. The happy children in the pictures, her little sisters, are suffering from severe hepatitis and are no longer recieving treatment due to overcrowding at what hospitals are left in gaza. Shahed herself has been weak and ill for days, narrowly surviving multiple massacres in just the past few days while trying to get food for her family. They all got displaced just last week due to the intense bombing in khan younis, and in doing so have lost precious funds that could have gone into food and clean water. They are starving.

Shahed is only 21 years old but the responsibility of taking care of all 17 of her family members rests solely on her shoulders.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT. PLEASE HELP SHAHED EVACUATE HER FAMILY TO SAFETY.

She has only gotten $47k/80k, and she needs to get to $50k within this week.

This gfm was verified and appears on hussein @/el-shab-hussein and nairuz @/nabulsi list of vetted fundraisers (#224) so please dont hesitate to donate whatever you can, and please keep sharing!!!

Take this as a call to action, please repost her her fundraiser in your discord servers, in your whatsapp groups. Repost her photgraphy and share her story on whatever social media you have reach, so that people can help because i really cant get her to her goal in time alone.

[kinavu]

UPDATE FROM SHAHED:

As we near shaheds short term goal of 50k, donations have already started to die down and i am sorry to say this but that CANNOT stand.

SHAHED NEEDS TO RAISE THE REST OF THE 80K AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. MAYBE EVEN WITHIN THE NEXT WEEK

This is because she has informed me that while she has already registered her siblings and father for evacuation with the hala travel agency in egypt, she has struck a deal with the travel coordinators that if she is able to collect the rest of the amount soon then the rest of the family can be evacuated together as well.

With seventeen family members, adults being priced at $5k per ticket and children at $2.5k, shahed needs to raise nearly $70,000 for their travel fee and then another 10k to account for the exorbitant commission (upto 30%) that gazan bankers demand to do the wire transfer of the money to gaza.

I know i have been saying this for weeks now, but the situation really is beyond desperate. If shahed isnt able to scrounge up these funds in time for when the egyptian border opens, most of her family including herself will have to stay behind and miss this chance to get out of gaza when they still can. And with tensions being escalated everywhere by the zionist occupation, we dont know when they will get a chance like this again.

Shahed has told me it is likely she wont be able to be online as much soon because even after getting displaced again, the bombing has followed her there too. Network outages will be expected, and i genuinely worry about when i might hear from her again. She is very sick, and very tired as well. I am really scared for her. Please dont let her go now, she needs help now more than ever.

Please spare any amount you can, and please keep sharing her fundraiser wherever you have reach outside of tumblr too. We cannot rest, and i really need you to lend me a hand in sharing her fundraiser cause again i cant do this on my own, and we cannot afford to fail her when we have gotten her so far.
