Also people, if you ever find yourself doomscrolling through the Russo-Ukrainian war, Türkie earthquake or Iranian women movement posts thinking about your lack of power to support the relief, remind yourself that even the smallest action in solidarity matters. You don’t have to donate billions or go rebuild, listening to people and sharing their stories is already a lot. If you want extra fancy step- share artwork, listen to music from the region, or even find support rally in your city and attend it one day. If you want to be fancy af, donate a can of soup to Türkie earthquake relief. People stay with no electricity, so ready made soups can help them stay fed.
At some point, these events and relief from them intersects, so small action in any of these directions may also help other people.
When small drops come together, they create a big wave.

Interview with Nele, Nika Shakarami’s girlfriend by Zeit Magazine
‘‘Nika loved the moon, and it became an important symbol in their relationship, says Nele. When they missed each other, they would say: "We don’t live in the same country, but beneath the same sky." Sometimes, Nika would tell Nele over the phone that she was looking at the moon, saying: You should go outside too, Nele, so we can look at it together. They even called each other "my moonie." Or Niki and Neli. Or Haku and Chihiro, like the main characters in the anime film "Spirited Away," which both of them loved. The story involves a courageous boy helping a shy girl escape a world full of monsters. "That was us," Nele says today‘‘
Nika Shakarami was a 16 year old brave Iranian girl who was kidnapped by the police during the ongoing protests in Iran, brutally tortured, raped and murdered in cold blood. Her burial was on her birthday. Say her name, Nika Shakarami
