Tell Congress: Hands Off Rafah!

“Now that the U.S. passed $14 billion in weapons for genocide, Israel is launching its full-scale military invasion and massacre in Rafah. HANDS OFF RAFAH! From day one of this assault, Israel has been very clear about its genocidal intentions to kill and remove as many Palestinians as possible in order to steal their land. Since October, Israel has murdered 42,000+ Palestinians in Gaza including 15,000+ children with our tax dollars. Sending more weapons will only further embolden Israel to escalate and expand its massive violence. If you agree that our tax dollars should be funding true safety and community care, not genocide, please join us by emailing your members of Congress.”

Somatic (Body-Based) Support Guide

“Organizing by nature can be activating, in challenging or beautiful ways, as it involves protecting the safety and wellbeing of people and planet. Not just experiencing, but being exposed to/witnessing violence is traumatic - from Gaza to domestic police violence. This is called secondary trauma. Witnessing and responding to violence can also trigger your own past traumas.

For all the students out there who are being so courageous and taking action for a free Palestine. Feel free to spread this to anyone who could use it around the globe! Taking care of our bodies and each other is crucial to the work. Please print and spread at encampments!!”

Tell Your MP: Save Gaza’s Hospitals

“With more than 60,000 Palestinians now injured by Israel’s ongoing bombardment, Gaza’s hospitals are needed more than ever. But hospitals cannot save lives if they are forced to shut down. More than half of hospitals have now been forced to close because of Israel’s military attacks. The remaining hospitals are at risk. Please help Palestinians by emailing your MP to save Gaza’s hospitals.”
