anyone in or near nyc: the gaza solidarity encampment is in desperate need of support as columbia university president minouche shafik intends to have the camp swept (again) at midnight if an agreement cannot be reached with organizers. the escalation against activists has been ongoing all week long.
i have been in touch with students (who wish to remain anonymous for their own safety) and following others participating in the encampment and your support at this moment is absolutely crucial if you can spare it.
**i’ve seen various mentions of the national guard being dispatched but as of several hours ago ny governor kathy hochul said she had no plans to allow for it. this, however, does not keep the encampment safe from violence at the hands of the NYPD.
Many of you know me as a passionate plant lover, but behind every leaf and bloom in my garden lies a story, and today, I share one that has deeply affected my life. I write this today with a heavy heart and a plea for support.
For nearly two years, my beloved mother has been courageously battling cancer. Her strength and resilience have been a guiding light for me, but the journey has been arduous, both emotionally and financially. We’ve stood by her side through countless treatments, holding onto hope with every step.
Friends, family and communities(Plant lovers/Gardners) has been there for us in the past few months. Money were donated in bulk by communities and in small sizes by individuals.
However, just last week, we received devastating news. The cancer has spread to a critical point, and doctors have advised immediate surgery to remove her cervix. This news has hit us hard, both emotionally and financially. The cost of the surgery is overwhelming, and we find ourselves at a loss, with nowhere to turn for assistance - having exhausting all options in the last 2years.
I’m reaching out to Anyone and Everyone for help. My mother’s love for gardening has always been a source of joy and solace for her, even in the darkest of times. It breaks my heart to think that she may not have the chance to tend to her garden again.
With your generous support, we can ensure that my mother receives the life-saving surgery she desperately needs. Your contributions will not only help cover the cost of the procedure but also provide much-needed relief during this challenging time. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference in our fight against cancer.
I understand that times are tough for everyone, and I wouldn’t ask if it weren’t absolutely necessary. Please know that your kindness and generosity will not go unnoticed. Together, we can help keep my mother’s garden blooming and ensure that she has many more years to enjoy the beauty of nature.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love, support, and compassion during this difficult time.
CONTEXT: the gaza freedom flotilla coalition aims to bring emergency aid (food, medical supplies, etc) to a starving and besieged gaza. activists and journalists from all over the world (including diaspora palestinians like dylan) will be participating, and they know the risk — in 2010 turkish activists attempting a similar mission had their flagship raided by israeli forces, who murdered 10 activists aboard (9 died on site and another died later from critical injuries).
Please help the family of a non-verbal autistic child (who has been losing weight because he only eats certain kinds of food, largely unavailable during this time) leave Gaza!
I know you have all probably seen the esims for gaza posts circulating. Some of you have probably looked at them and thought maybe you should help out, but have weighed up the daunting process of signing up for something you're unfamiliar with vs. the gut-wrenching scale of the things people are going through on the ground right now, and you've put it off or questioned whether it will make enough of a difference vs. some other future kind of activism you could put that $6+ towards. I'm not calling you out or scolding you, it is natural to feel conflicted and ambivalent about the multiple calls for aid that you are seeing on social media.
but consider this: what would you do if you suddenly had to leave your home? how would you cope? how would you begin to plan where to go next, or figure out what to do to take care of yourself? most likely you would reach reflexively for your phone.
telecoms access is not a petty luxury in 2024. a loaded esim means the ability to call family members and find out where they are and whether they're safe, and whether they need anything you can provide for them. it means access to maps and regular updates on the situation unfolding around you. it means you can look up whether it's safe to drink rain water, or how to tie a type of knot you've never had to think about before, or how to treat an injury without medical supplies. it means the ability to tell people outside the situation what you are seeing, what you are feeling, what you are thinking. it is an absolutely crucial resource. and it starts at $6 for 7 days.
many many people have observed that internet access is changing the way the world understands genocide. internet access is life or death, and it is shaping modern history in front of you. and it starts at $6 for 7 days.
please, please visit gazaesims.com and spend 5 minutes and $6 to change the way this plays out for everyone.
Graphic design artist Moataz Abu Sakran has provided extensive documentation of the genocide against Gaza. His photos and videos have been used—often without credit—by major media outlets, and his posts are featured on this blog regularly.
Moataz and his wife and baby girl are trapped in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Hospital complex. The area has been under complete siege for 10 days, and life is extremely difficult and dangerous. In addition to the physical violence of the ongoing siege, the occupation’s famine has made food extremely scarce—Moataz can no longer find milk and nutritious food for baby Maria.
For weeks he has been trying to put together funds to evacuate his family, but donations have stalled, and there is still quite a way to go before they have enough to evacuate.
There was an increase in donations after we initially shared the link on this blog. We are hoping that will happen again. Please support Moataz’s family via this link so that they can reach safety. Even just a few dollars will help. If you can’t donate, please share the link on all your social media accounts.
This is the primary link to donate and share. You can copy and paste it onto other posts and social media sites.

Because of the dire situation and famine in North Gaza, our friend Hussam from Rafah decided to keep helping by directing 20% of all donation (starting March 11) to Mahmoud AbuSalama and his team in the North who were able to buy all what you see in his video above. So far, he received $5000 since Ramadan started.
Both Hussam and Mahmoud are so grateful and humbled by your continuous support which is helping so many families in the North and the South. Let's keep up the pace everybody!
Please note that Ramadan target of $50k started the first day of Ramadan on March 11 and the first $100k was donated and spent throughout the couple months before Ramadan.

You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.
There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.
Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.
PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.
Adults and children alike are currently dying in Palestine due to starvation. (World Health Organization Link)
The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.
So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸
