NEVER FORGET THE PALESTINIANS . The PEN Canada award I just won comes with a $2K prize. I’ve donated half to the non-profit Legal Centre for Palestine, the only organization in Canada advocating for the rights of Palestinians + supporters here. Pls donate lcpal.ca
Contrast the response of police when they falsely claim anti Israel graffiti as antisemitism, or even rightly, loudly condemn antisemitism, or break down people’s doors in dawn raids for splashing a store with washable paint to this instance where Palestine isn’t even mentioned.
On Wednesday night, residents in south Riverdale noticed anti-Palestinian graffiti and alerted Toronto police. This is some of it, from reels on Thursday by jagpile on Insta. Residents say there's much more and it hasn't been cleaned up. Police made three arrests but...🧵
Memo to colonizers: Don’t fuck with the Māori.
The New Zealand government is pulling back on protecting Māori rights, sparking protests from indigenous lawmakers who oppose the decision with their traditional “haka” chant. This is powerful.
Terrible atmosphere minutes ahead of kick off between France and Israel at the Stade de France. As it should be. Bravo to every football fan who has refused to normalise having a genocidal state playing football. Governments don’t represent the people.
I’m sure everyone is feeling safe now. Thanks, politicians!
Guys, finally… A Dutch official with the balls to condemn the Zionists thugs in Amsterdam Listen 🔈
Canada must suspend the charitable status of all organizations found to be aiding Israeli war crimes. Now. Not one cent of Canadian tax-dollars should be funding genocide.
With @AdvocatesJust, we have released a new report documenting the shocking extent to which Canadian charities are complicit in funding Israeli war crimes. Add your voice to tell Canada - no more tax breaks for war crimes! actionnetwork.org/letters/action…
Watch how Indian government sponsored media bullied an innocent Canadian officer and made his and his family’s life hell. CBSA officer Sundeep Sidhu with @EvanDyerCBC
At this point it should be clear to anyone with half an ounce of morality that you can’t take anyone who calls it the Gaza “conflict” seriously.
Our reporter in Gaza just filed a dispatch describing how his family has resorted to eating pet food, cooking with bug infested flour and paying exorbitant prices for rotten vegetables (when they are even available).
Karine Jean-Pierre, when asked about international aid agencies saying Israel has failed to improve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza despite the U.S. previously warning military aid would be at risk: “Israel has taken steps to address the measures laid out in that letter.”
I once believed that the Israeli government's slaughter of civilians was indiscriminate. I was completely wrong. It is deliberate, massive and plainly genocidal.
Is this self-defense too? Acclaimed British surgeon Nizam Mamode breaks down briefly while testifying to the UK Parliament about Israel’s quadcopters picking off kids who had just been bombed.
"Terrorism" does not refer to any practice or ideology. It is a label the West uses to signal that normal rights, laws, and due process are cancelled.
“I was lying on the ground after a bomb had dropped and this quadcopter came down and hovered over me and shot me,” children told NHS transplant surgeon Nizam Mamode daily, he told legislators. “That’s clearly a deliberate act and it was a persistent targeting of children.”

Tonight in Berlin, 19-year-old Israeli conscientious objector Sofia Orr @Mesarvot_ shared her story of how she spent over 80 days in a military prison for refusing to participate in Israel’s occupation and its deliberate destruction of Gaza.
“If the existence of Arabs causes distress, that's called racism.” Cc: @MacLeodLisa @OCDSB
We are concerned @OCDSB @SRB_news seems to be apologizing for the existence of an "Arabic song" after @MacLeodLisa claimed it "distressed all the Jewish students". This is the song: youtube.com/watch?v=fjuPI6… If the existence of Arabs causes distress, that's called racism. #onted
I don’t recall any of this anti-Arabic pearl-clutching last year when Ukrainians did the same and more at a public school.
1. It's not a genocide - it's a war. 2. Remembrance Day is about Canadian veterans and those who sacrificed for Canada. 3. Not everything is about Palestine. 4. This commemoration is about Canada & Canadians.
I’ve been thinking about how this election has us playing hunger games and destroying whatever chance we have to unite. Clever. Cause guess who will run up the middle? Notice we’re fighting ourselves not with Trumpists
Reflecting on Trump’s election and rising authoritarianism globally, it becomes clear that divide and rule, leaving the disenfranchised bickering among themselves is very much in the interest of capital. Therefore: solidarity is the one true antidote we should be striving for.

Over 250,00 Sikhs served in the world wars. And that's including major campaigns of WW1 in France and Flanders Belgium including Ypres, Neuve Chapelle, La Bassee, Somme, and Vimy. Sikhs also served in campaigns in Persia, Gallipoli, Mesopotamia, East Africa and the Far East.…

Racist text messages sent to Black men, women and even middle schoolers in more than 10 states, including most Southern American states, asked some to show up at a particular location including “a plantation”, some referenced the incoming Trump govt apnews.com/article/text-m…
