Donate to Gaza Family Left With Nothing Help Them Start Again, organized by Rania A

In the heart of Gaza, a family of four clings to survival in the shadow of… Rania A needs your support for Gaza Family Left With Nothing Hel

I never imagined I would have to beg for help to keep my elderly parents alive, but today I have no other choice. My parents suffer from chronic illnesses, including diabetes and high blood pressure, and they desperately need their medications every day. We urgently need to raise $1,000 to buy the medicines that keep them stable and alive. Without these treatments, their health could deteriorate rapidly, and their lives may be at risk. 💔

The pain of watching the people who raised me suffer while I stand helpless is unbearable. Every time they ask about their medication, my heart breaks because I do not know how I will provide it. No child should have to watch their parents grow weaker simply because they cannot afford the medicine they need.😔

The war in Gaza has not ended. Every single day, we continue to live with fear, uncertainty, and the sound of explosions. Airstrikes and shelling still happen regularly, sometimes frighteningly close to where we are. Every day, more lives are lost, more families are devastated, and more people are forced to endure unimaginable suffering. We do not know what tomorrow will bring, and living under this constant threat while trying to care for sick elderly parents is overwhelming.💔😔

Please, I am begging you not to ignore our cry for help. Every donation, no matter how small, brings us closer to buying the medication my parents desperately need. Your kindness could help protect their health and give them a chance to continue fighting their illnesses. In a time when we feel surrounded by fear and uncertainty, your support can give us hope and remind us that we are not alone.🙏💔😔

the worst part about being an adult is that no matter how sad you get, the show must go on.

For anybody not caught up: Tennessee just passed a new map that pretty much makes it so black neighborhoods have no power in local votes. Two things about this. While protestors were chanting "No Jim Crow", white Tennessee lawmakers were caught laughing on video. On top of this, Representative Justin Pearson and his brother KeShaun Pearson were arrested for trying to give their takes on the matter (which is not only their legal right but literally his job). If you give a shit about black people, help fight this. We can't allow a return to Jim Crow.

Heyyy guess where I live

A local paper had some great photographs, all taken by Nicole Hester:

The day before, Rep. Justin Pearson tries to attend a Senate Committee meeting and is barred access by the Sergeant at Arms.

Lawmakers and protesters link arms as the descend the capitol steps.

Once inside the chamber, Democratic representatives continued to stand together with arms linked.

They continued standing together with arms linked as votes were cast.

Democratic representatives take a group photo protesting the redistricting.

Rep. Justin Jones burns a photo of the Confederate flag with the words, We will not go back.

And stomps the ashes.

Additional information: State lawmakers have been gunning for Pearson and Jones nearly their entire terms. Most notably, in 2023, the House expelled them for participating in a protest at the Capitol. Their districts had to have special elections to have them reinstated.

Pearson is one of the plaintiffs of a lawsuit seeking an injunction against the redistricting.

The city most affected by the redistricting is Memphis, where locals are fighting against xAI's data center, which has been operating with very little oversight and is poisoning the people who live there. Here is a previous post on that with more information and more sources.
