Afghans flee Pakistan en masse: “We’d live here our whole life if they didn’t send us back”
Pakistan is set to begin forcibly removing 1.7 million migrants, many of them Afghans who fled the Taliban, Sky News reports.
Thousands of Afghans are fleeing Pakistan ahead of the government’s Wednesday deadline for undocumented or unregistered foreign nationals to leave the country.
Last month, Pakistan’s interim government threatened to round up, detain and deport those who do not leave the country voluntarily. Islamabad blames Afghan migrants for a surge in armed attacks, mainly in the northwestern province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the southwestern province of Balochistan on the border with Afghanistan.

[...] I informed Saboor and offered to drive him and Pari to Kabul. I will never fully understand why he chose to instead walk his daughter from Shadbagh. Or why he allowed Abdullah to come along. Perhaps he was clinging to what little time he had left with his daughter. Perhaps he sought a measure of penance in the hardship of the journey. Or perhaps it was Saboor's pride, and he would not ride in the car of the man who was buying his daughter. But, in the end, there they were, the three of them, coated in dust, waiting, as agreed, near the mosque.

Absolutely fucking disappointed to find out one of my fave trans punk musicians came out today as a Zionist. Straight up tried to both sides the issue and " the state has a right to exist" it. How tf do you at this point call yourself a leftist and still believe shit like that. How do you feel an ounce ok with what Israel stands for?

I am selling prints in support of Luminus and their mission to integrate refugees into the United States. In particular, their mission to support Afghan refugees fleeing the Taliban government is close to my heart.
As an OEF veteran and neighbor to multiple Afghan refugee families, I want to see them succeed.
If you haven’t read the reporting in the Baltimore Banner about the difficulty Afghan refugees are facing here in Baltimore, I strongly urge you to. It underscores why organizations like Luminus and the Afghan Alliance of Maryland are critical.
If you are looking to put some art on your wall and support a great cause, consider buying a print from my Darkroom page. 100% of all sales will be donated to Luminus. If you can't swing buying a print right now, consider making a small charitable donation directly to Luminus, instead.
If there is a photo of mine you would like to see added, drop me a message and let me know!
Thank you.

talibans ban on music
music is an important part of many peoples lives, including mine. but how would it feel if you were apart of the many people who can no longer listen to music in afganistan because of the talibans ban on music? it’s been illegal since 1990 for radios and tv stations to stream music, according to rferl.org. the reasoning for this is because music supposedly corrupts the people of afganistan and creates bad influences on those who listen to music on a daily basis. if caught listening or creating music (through instruments, etc) you could get beaten or jailed as punishment.

Afghans leave Pakistan ahead of deadline
A huge number of Afghans headed to the Pakistani border to return home hours before a deadline set by the Pakistani government. Illegal residents must leave the country or face deportation,
The deadline is part of a new crackdown on migrants, according to Islamabad. However, the measure applies to Afghans, who comprise the majority of migrants in Pakistan.
Pakistani officials warn that people staying in the country illegally will face arrest and deportation from November 1. UN agencies say there are more than 2 million undocumented Afghans living in Pakistan, at least 600,000 of whom have fled since the Taliban took power in 2021.
The campaign comes amid strained relations between Pakistan and the Taliban rulers. Islamabad accuses Kabul of closing its eyes to militant Taliban allies who take refuge in Afghanistan to organise attacks in Pakistan. The Taliban denies the accusations.

And please tell her that I cannot know the myriad of consequences of what I had set in motion. Tell her I took solace only in hope. Hope that perhaps, wherever she is now, she has found as much greater peace, grace, love and happiness as this world allows.
