!! DONT SKIP !! donations urgently needed They are only at €5,561 out of €50,000 goal

I was contacted by Nader to draw pictures for and help spread his brother Abdulsalam Al-Anqar’s fundraiser to save their family. Nader is a 17 year old boy who lives in Gaza with his family: parents Ahmed (54) and mother Iman (49), brothers Abdulsalam (26), Mohammed (14), and Omar (21) and Abdulsalam’s wife and their one year old daughter Iman. Imagine it was your sibling, your friend, your son, who should be in school or with his friends, who instead has to hide from bombs and ask for help online to save his family. His family have suffered through one year of genocide. All of you are their hope to get to safety.

This fundraiser is vetted by @gazavetters, number four on the spreadsheet here

Abdulsalams daughter Iman is only one year old and has lived most her life in a war zone. She is suffering from malnutrition. It’s every fathers worst nightmare to see their child starve and not be able to feed her. Please help him feed his daughter and get her to safety. No child should grow up hearing the sound of bombs. Every child has the right to food and safety. You can help give Iman the childhood she should have, where she can sleep in a safe bed at night with a full stomach.

Their father Ahmed has cancer and needs surgery and medication. It is not possible to get the treatment he needs in Gaza. every day his illness is left untreated, the cancer will continue to spread through his body, so he very urgently needs money for treatment and travel. If you help them get to their goal, you are saving their fathers life. Don’t let this family who have already lost so much lose their father, husband, and grandfather

Nader has showed me pictures of this explosion close to them, thankfully they were able to get away. Every day they stay in Gaza their lives are at risk from israeli bombs. Every day and hour counts. I know there are compassionate and kind people who are willing to help. every euro helps, YOUR donation will bring them one moment closer to safety. With love and hope I’m asking you to give what you can, I believe in the kind people of the world and I beg you to not let them die. If you can’t donate, please share so it may reach people who can.

Never forget that palestinians are not numbers on a list of deaths. Please think of each of them, think of their names and faces and know that you can help them. I think of them every day. I think of the hopes and dreams they should achieve, I think of their education, their future, and the love they show when they work hard every day to get help. You may feel powerless to stop this genocide, but you have the power to save Abdulsalam and his family. I dream that the day will come soon where they may use their days to rest and recover from what they’ve been through, where they can share a meal and laugh and the children will play, instead of having to use their time to beg the world to listen and help them. We can make this possible.

50 000 euros is a lot of money for one person to give, but for all of us together, it can be done. Please don’t look away.

I've been in contact with Nader for a bit now. This family is in deep need of our help and Nader himself has spent every single day tirelessly campaigning in order to save his family. Please, if you have anything to spare, donate to them, and if not, share this post. 🙏🏻

No one should have to campaign this hard for themselves and their loved ones to not be killed by a genocidal settler ethnostate, let alone a 17 years old boy.

Tagging for reach.

Transgender woman faces two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation.

A Wyoming transgender woman is facing two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation she says began with anti-LGBTQ+ and a

Ríhanna Kelver, a bartender and trans rights advocate in Laramie, has been charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent after a 13 September 2025 confrontation outside the Crowbar & Grill, whereshe worked. Kelver could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison if convicted on both charges.

Kelver says one man in a group of men across the street from her started shouting homophobic and transphobic insults at her before the man allegedly shoved her to the ground in a downtown crosswalk, as reported by The Laramie Reporter.

There's more, as it pertains to Black trans people's right to self-defence:

Despite Wyoming’s “Stand Your Ground” statute, which allows people to use reasonable force in moments of self defense, Kelver faces up to 15 years in prison for both charges, as well as up to $11,000 in fines, per Cowboy State Daily. Kelver faces an additional year and $1,000 fine for a charge of interference with a peace officer. [...]

As pointed out by Slate, self-defense laws are often put into question when people from marginalized communities, especially trans people, use them, including Cece McDonald, a Black trans woman who served time in a men’s prison for defending her friends during a racist and transphobic attack. Ky Peterson, a Black trans man from Georgia, was also arrested and imprisoned for killing his rapist in self-defense.

the way ive had to drop ppl for this and theyd get angry at me and thought i was like defending capitalism or somethin instead of the fact that id always get targeted immediately after they were caught

anglaised

it has been crazy seeing the discourse happening around some black americans saying they aren’t buying from asian businesses anymore due to that recent murder bc from the responses some asian americans r having online u would think instead of getting angry at black ppl for it theyd be like “yeah actually i need to talk to my auntie and my uncle and my grandparents and my mom and dad bc there is a serious antiblackness issue among them that makes black people here feel unsafe to even shop with us” but instead its just “how dare you withhold your dollars? ur fucking evil” as if a little black boy didn’t just get murdered for being black in one of their stores which is why ppl r boycotting in the first place

On one street, hundreds of masked men carrying bottles and bricks set bins on fire and shouted "foreigners out", our reporter says.

i really don't have the words for how things have escalated to outright race riots in the last few weeks. just to collect a few of the stories the bbc is reporting in their live thread:

Families led to safety through flames (Dan Johnson) Homes were targeted and burned. Families had to be led to safety through the flames - rescued by emergency services risking their lives in the most dangerous situation. It’s what the authorities feared all day. What they warned against and pleaded not to see. The condemnation came quickly and was widespread. It wasn’t just homes, cars were also torched by young masked man in these predominantly unionist streets but the target here was immigrants and the message to entirely innocent families was: "You’re not welcome". In the north of the city, more people were forced to flee including an African family who’ve lived here for 20 years.

People being put out 'because they're black' - pastor A pastor who has been helping those in houses targeted in tonight's violence says people were being put out of their homes "because they're black". Pastor Jack McKee was at the scene where multiple houses were on fire around the Crumlin Road in north Belfast - he says some members of his church "who have been with us for 20 years" were "getting put out of their home, had their house attacked, windows smashed, houses beside them burned". "They're good Christian people and they're getting put out just because they're black," he says. "I'm doing my best to help them, it's as simple as that." [...]

Masked men shouting 'foreigners out' (Kelly Bonner) Last night on the Lower Newtownards Road in Belfast hundreds of masked men walked down the street carrying bottles, bricks and masonry. They set bins on fire and shouted "foreigners out". As they walked street to street, they were banging on doors, kicking doors down and breaking windows. Masked man set cars alight and at one point I witnessed them trying to burn a car until a woman came out of her home and told them it belonged to a "local and not a foreigner" and they stopped. A young family had to be moved from their home by police. The scenes of this young family fleeing their home were really quite shocking.

We're seeing a 'race-based pogrom' in Belfast, MP tells BBC Claire Hanna, Belfast MP and leader of the Social Democratic & Labour Party, has spoken to Newsnight about the "nightmarish" attack on Monday, which she says has "understandably revulsed and shocked" people in Belfast. However, she condemned the scenes that erupted on Tuesday afternoon, suggesting that "negative actors online and politicians locally who don't really care what communities in north Belfast have been through" have used the knife attack to incite violence and seed division. "What you're seeing is a race-based pogrom. We are seeing men going door to door asking to get the foreigners out based exclusively on the colour of their skin," she has said. "It's not based on what they're contributing to society, what their status here is and it's terrifying for people in Belfast who want this sort of politics to be far beyond them."

#as soon as I saw that knife attack was by an immigrant the writing was on the wall #can people ever be fucking normal. burning houses down. cunts #hope no one was hurt #shameful 2 see such bullshit from Irish people

completely agree with your thoughts here, but there's an important part you're missing - these attacks were largely in loyalist (i.e. people who very strongly reject calling themselves irish and are largely descended from scottish settlers funded by the british crown in the 1600s) areas. in 1969, loyalists similarly carried out pogroms against the irish catholic community in northern ireland because they opposed the catholic civil rights movement, which aimed to end de facto segregation and discrimination in northern ireland.

if you read coverage of the race riots, then you'll quickly notice that it's loyalist politicians defending these racist bigots. this isn't to say that there are no far right racist nationalists (i.e. people in ni who identify as irish and want to join the republic of ireland). there absolutely are, and the current wave of populist racism has shown a merging of extremist nationalist and loyalist groups into more 'conventional' far right groups that you would see elsewhere in the uk and europe.

i'm saying all of this because this is mainly coming from a community where they have a history of racist and murderous pogroms, not unlike white southerners in the usa. irish people aren't innocent either (and there's a great deal of denial over irish complicity and involvement in the british empire, let alone the slave trade) but it's important to make it clear that, this time, these riots happened overwhelmingly in loyalist areas.

After reading the quoted portion above and seeing how racist the comments from claire hanna were (playing into the racist idea that immigrants somehow take from countries they move to while attempting to cover her own ass by condmening the violence even though she's agreeing with the racist rhetoric that incited it) to see if that sentiment was alone in the article. It was not, while i did not read every single update, every quote i read from multiple political parties echoed the same racist information that 'people shouldnt be doing this, but they only are because theyre (rightfully) concerned about immigrants'. At most there were those that condemned vigilante action, but the continued racist retoric parroted by these politicians makes clear the source of the problem is at the top.
