trans people in iowa city need your help — please spread this

Please donate if you are willing to help defray legal fees relating to criminal charges against seven Iowans who were arrested after protesting against hate speech.

The charges include penalties of up to 13 months imprisonment and $3420 in fines, per person.

The seven Iowans who were arrested are all transgender. There were about 100 people who protested that night, many of whom were not trans. No one was cited or arrested at the time of the protest. It was only 4 weeks later that charges were brought. The seven trans protesters--like thousands of others who have marched in the streets of Iowa City in recent years--believed they were safe from the invasion of their rights to freely express themselves against hate.

Donations will support attorney fees and potential fines related to the criminal charges. More information is available at joco6.org

^ i've copy pasted the above from the first link, the bold is my doing.

please donate if u can to support trans people arrested for protesting hate speech!!

Alright as a local, there's actually a little bit more buuuuuullshiet involved to it than that

See. Our lovely city has not one, but TWO fully funded and armed police departments. One of them is under control of the University of Iowa college.

About a month before these arrests were made, The University was platforming a very vocal detransitioner who was weaponizing her experience in support of all the laws being set up to prohibit gender affirming care for minors.

Many people came to peacefully protest her speech and the university's support of it, and at the time nothing came of it- Until four weeks later, when the same students started planning protests in support of Palestine.

Many of the same activists that were protesting Chloe Cole's speech were involved in arranging and executing the Palestine marches. And that's when the University's police started coming through to arrest people in the name of the Chloe Cole protests.

It was active targeting of transgender protestors. It was an infringement of rights to peaceful protest and freedom of speech. And it was a forceful display with the goal of dissuading another protest.

Please donate to the above link if you can. If the goal has already been met and/or the donation link has closed by the time you're seeing this post, please consider donating to the Iowa Trans Mutual Aid Fund, which raises money both for protestors' bail and to help people access gender-affirming care. However!

IF OP'S LINK IS STILL LIVE, PLEASE DONATE THERE BEFORE ITMAF. Thank you.

have u seen the call for a global strike monday the 12th of december? would love to hear your thoughts on it

monday is the 11th of december! no thoughts, just striking. i think there was a previous call for strike that didn't gain enough momentum, but this one is particularly dear to me because i've seen many palestinians in gaza share it over and over in some hope (after the UN resolution veto) that it may do something. so even though i know it probably doesn't have much traction in the west as it has in egypt, i think you should strike for them.

I haven't seen any posts about it here, discussion seems to have really slowed down on the subject, but on Saturday 300,000 people marched in London again calling for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

Our government, and the so-called opposition, may have chosen not to call for one, but they do not fucking represent us.

[wearenotjustnumbers2]

Just wanted to remind everybody that today is the last day of the "humanitarian pause" in gaza. Starting from tomorrow Tuesday 7:00am, Israel will go back to carpet bombing gaza.

We need a permanent ceasefire. Keep speaking up!

[wearenotjustnumbers2]

Update: the pause has been extended for two more days. This is good but not enough. We still need a permanent ceasefire. Keep speaking and advocating for a free Palestine 🇵🇸

B’Tselem – The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories strives to end Israel’s occupation, recognizing that

[summer-fruits]

They also have a great website that is extremely detailed and interactive!!

https://www.btselem.org

I found them because I had seen someone say that the ratio of Palestinians to Israelis fatalities since 2005 was 23:1 and i was wondering where the data for that originally came from. This website keeps such detailed accounts of fatalities, home destruction, and other human rights violations. It also has an interactive map that shows the timeline of the occupation, talks about different communities and settlements, shows check points, and more.

It is extremely informative, and honestly pretty remarkable.

Spotify wrapped is normally released on a November 30 or December 1 but this year it was released on November 29, the International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian People- a day which it was asked for people to increase their social media posts about Palestine to help call for a permanent ceasefire. Instead it is now being overshadowed by people posting about Spotify wrapped…

[ibtisams-deactivated20240709]

In May of this year Spotify removed the song “My Blood is Palestinian” by Mohammed Assaf from its platform for “inciting against Israel”

Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek said that Kanye West’s music would not be pulled from the platform despite his antisemitic remarks and other companies cutting ties with him

Daniel Ek also invested €100 million into an AI military defense company. Israel uses AI technology when bombing Gaza.

November 29, 2023 - Kissinger has finally died! 🦀🦀🦀

[tamarrud]

Quick context about the 150 Palestinians that Israel will release from its prisons in exchange for 50 hostages held by Hamas as part of the 2023 "ceasefire" agreement:

Among the ones who will be released today will be 24 Palestinian women and 14 Palestinian children.

There are currently 7,200 Palestinians held by Israel, this number does not include prisoners from Gaza like day workers who were kidnapped by Israel.

2,300 of the Palestinian prisoners are administrative detainees, which means they are held indefinitely without charges.

Since October 7, Israel had imprisoned 3,145 Palestinians in the West Bank alone, 250 of whom are children, a number which is unprecedented since 1967.

Remember that israel will continue to hold about 250 Palestinian children in its prisons under brutal conditions.

While Israel has been sloppily playing the victim part and desperately trying to make this about ~Khamas~, it is crucial to note that all of the above numbers are from the West Bank alone, where Hamas does not operate. This is a reminder that Israel is routinely aggressive against Palestinians regardless of their age, where they are, political affiliations, etc...

If US politicians refuse to listen to our calls for ceasefire via letter, call, email, or petitions, then it's time to hit them where it hurts.

Don't buy anything during Black Friday or Cyber Monday. The American government cannot function without the funds of its people.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

there are Shut It Down For Palestine actions planned for Friday, look for one in your area if you can. they're not all registered on the Shut It Down website, so check social media as well as their list.

I was going to link to Standing Rock Institute of Natural History’s gofundme, but it appears it is no longer active. Here’s the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s general donation page.

The Standing Rock reservation has an astonishing wealth of fossil remains, and a relatively young paleontology program, but not much in the way of resources. Here’s the program’s Get Involved page, and here’s a really cool video talking about the subject from PBS’s Prehistoric Road Trip, if you have six minutes to spare.

in light of a four day ceasefire in Gaza being agreed upon, i am once again asking you all not to lose sight of the big picture. Biden and the Israeli Government are trying to frame this as a major democratic victory and as a favor respectively. they have no intention of a total ceasefire. they have no intention of stopping their genocide. remember - a ceasefire is the very first step. it’s not even the bare minimum.

the absolute bare minimum in this situation is 1) a complete ceasefire and immediate humanitarian aid in Gaza, 2) complete halt of all military foreign aid to the Israeli government, 3) the Israeli government being prosecuted for its war crimes in the International Criminal Court, and 4) land back and reparations for the Palestinian people. free Palestine means free Palestine, not just temporarily stop carpet bombing Palestine.

a temporary ceasefire is something, but it’s not even close to the end goal. we cannot let up pressure when things seem to be looking up. keep protesting, boycotting, spreading awareness, contacting politicians, etcetera. keep your eyes on Gaza. free Palestine.

[freefreeepalestine-deactivated2]

France becomes the first western state to formally call for a ceasefire. Keep up the calls and protests.

[cazort]

This is fantastic news, keep up the momentum, more western states can follow. I know the US is gonna be slow to the game but I am working really hard over here to do the best I can to nudge it in this direction.

[afloweroutofstone]

Only 32% of Americans agree that “the U.S. should support Israel,” down from 41% last month. They are now fewer than those saying “the U.S. should be a neutral mediator,” which rose from 27% to 39%.

Americans oppose sending weapons to Israel, 43%-31%.

68% agree that “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate,” including 3/4ths of Democrats and half of Republicans.
