Please, help. Donate if possible. Share in hope that the message will reach someone who can donate. And pressure your government to recognize Palestine as a rightful state and to end Nethanyahu's genocide.🕊️🇵🇸

Sorry to the folks here that I didn't share my book “ By My Ben “published last month, due to BlueSky's obstinacy and its suspension of Palestinian accounts.
But I will share it with you here.❤️

I hope @mommunism.bsky.social will share it too.

About the Author
My name is Joy. I'm a 22-year-old writer from Gaza, currently studying English Literature at the Islamic University of Gaza, which has recently been bombed. I've lived most of my life through war, enduring five conflicts that have stolen my right to live in safety, peace, and love.
I write stories, reflections, and poems. Since I was young, I've been passionate about poetry and literature. Recently, I started my biggest project yet: writing a book documenting everything I've lived through during the ongoing genocide.
I currently live with my mother and four siblings in a shelter, seeking refuge from the constant threat of death due to the violent airstrikes shaking the ground around me. I am my mother's eldest daughter, her close friend, and her supporter (just as she supports me). My father hasn't been with us since we were young; we've always been under our mother's care. I've lost my beautiful, warm home. I've been displaced to over 17 different shelters and locations, each one worse than the last due to the lack of any safe place to go. We face countless struggles, most notably the starvation we endure as part of the siege and strangulation, designed to create a complete cycle of Nazi-like genocide against us.

During my break from Bluesky, I was able to discover Mastodon, which I also worked on with Aral to help some Gazan families—something I will be proud of for the rest of my life.
I hope this account here won't be suspended just bc I talk about a genocide or simply because my identity is Palestinian.😞

Joy has been one of the most distinct Palestinian voices here on Bluesky but after continuous account deletions, she left this app for good 💔

Now she’s back via BlackSky and I am really hoping that her writing can get even more followers.

From River: See Joy’s post below. She will not be returning to Bluesky as a result of their draconian policies towards Palestinian accounts. In accordance with her decision, I will no longer be crossposting her work here.
