This and the Palestinian hostages are always referred to as anything but, despite returning with signs of psychological and physical torture, missing limbs and eyes… they’re just “Palestinians” or “prisoners.”

Sheryl Weikal and the colorful Parrotlegals @leftistlawyer.com · 1d

I think what's bothering me about all these statements I'm seeing from politicians that are variations of "Israeli hostages and Palestinians are returning to their homes, yay" is that Israelis are returning to their homes and Palestinians are returning to uninhabitable post apocalyptic rubble.

This is exactly why I started researching how we introduce each successive generation to the fact that this was a slaveholding nation through picturebooks and elementary curriculum.

I was going to write a book about it (still may), but Nikole Hannah-Jones' 1619 Project did SUCH great work on this.

Jules of Liberty @greeneyedmonster13.bsky.social · 6h

For real. I honestly think a lot of that is because of how the Civil Rights Movement was taught in schools. “Rosa Parks, MLK, and Malcolm X marched and made some speeches, then the Civil Rights Act was passed and racism went away” basically sums up how we were taught in the ‘80s. Heads, meet sand.

Ebony Elizabeth Thomas @ebonyteach.blacksky.app · 6h

It's really weird to have been a teenager or 20-something in the 1990s and then say in middle age with your entire chest "racism was solved back then, then it was brought back."

“can people be normal on ao3?” no. that’s quite literally the point. that website was created specifically to give freaks who like freaky shit a place to publish their works. if freaks liking freaky shit makes you uncomfortable, you can choose a different website.

Elon just became worth half a trillion dollars and then suspended the account of the Global Flotilla where 200 citizens from all over the world were kidnapped by Israel

All for trying to bring food and baby formula to starving people and children.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Majd. Majd is just 23 and was hoping to be a teacher before all this. She has been displaced with her family and they are living in tents, including her sister Ahd who is 20. She is hoping to continue her education and help her family survive❤️
