and I wrote for Atmos on the centrality of the Jordan River in Palestinians' identities and Zionists’ continuous destruction and exploitation of the river in their occupation.
Grateful to everyone who shared their knowledge with us.
Bombing universities in Gaza also meant erasing all Gazans’ education records, transcripts and qualifications. Many of them are in their last medical years but have no way to prove it. So, even Gazans who got out need to somehow start from scratch: financially and academically...
It kills me how the whole world celebrated Sudanese women strength and resilience shown in their chants and marches in the Sudanese revolution since 2018; and then now going completely silent to all current horrific news and testimonies about RSF raping and selling Sudanese women
واحدة مصرية مصابة بالسرطان في غزة وبتحاول تطلع من المعبر. اسمها لسة مش موجود في الليستة مع انهم بعتوا للسفارة كل الاوراق الي بتثبت حالتها. ممكن مين يساعد في الموضوع ده؟
A reminder that Israel threatens and blackmails gay Palestinians men into working as informants.
Arab LGBTQ+ (individuals/organizations) keep releasing statements, but you still want to celebrate these fucking pictures taken over the bodies of slaughtered palestinian families.
LIBERATION🏳️🌈THE FIRST EVER PRIDE FLAG RAISED IN GAZA!
Under Hamas, being gay means death. Israeli Yoav Atzmoni wanted to send a message of hope. See his story below.
To Gaza’s hidden LGBTQ+ community: STAY HOPEFUL of a future where you can live and love free of Hamas!
Wrote on how your core identity gets shaken and reconstructed during the fieldwork, across the Nile River in Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya and Egypt.
A very personal and intimate diary on confusion in fieldwork and post-fieldwork guilt.

How many environmental researcher and environmental center can take this stance and say it bluntly “no climate justice on occupied land” and speak about ecological apartheid.
So happy that the paper

All I am asking is one day of British politicians not saying the most outrageous racist statements of the decade, just one day…

تعبت اوي من الكلام علي البلاستيك كمشكلة مصر الاولي ومن التركيز علي المسؤلية الفردية، وصور البيئة الي فيها سمك وسلاحف من غير كلام عن معاناة الناس الي بتعتمد في اكل عيشها علي موارد بيئية وبتعاني من الفقر والاستغلال + وفوقيها تغيرات سريعة +وفوقيها ناس بتستنفع من اللقطة الحالية…
باقر كان بيمارس مهامه كمحامي بيدافع عن علاء، فجابوه واتحبس هو وعلاء. اتضرب واتهان بسبب دفاعه علي راجل كبير في السجن، مراته اتكلمت وحكت فاتجابت هي كمان..
قصة مرعبة ومقرفة وكابوس مش بيخلص. الانتقام من الحقوقين وعائلتهم وتدمير ومرمطة اي امل انهم ينجوا هم او الي حواليهم.

No one has the energy or time to read long ass foreign analysis to the situation; focus your energy to give sudanese the platform to write and speak, push your institutions to support and hire more Sudanese, or fundraise directly to Sudanese.

Many Egyptians in the humanitarian sector are being so self-centered and white. Like they want to be celebrated for any thing they do. They cannot listen to any complaint. Turning the situation into service provision and rating!
To some* of the foreign researchers and journalists, try to be humble when reporting and writing about the situation in Egypt, meaning, no one is expecting you to save us. 2) it’s a situation that we have been experiencing/talking about it for so long, so don’t act too surprised.

The sense of helplessness for our generation is not new. I remember when I was in school, we were told to pray as "Iraq might be attacked tomorrow". I had no idea about anything, but I remember waking up and seeing the flames and attacks the following day before going to school.

Israel arrested Layan Kayed, a masters student at Birzeit Uni, from her home in Ramallah today. She was also arrested during her BA. Here she speaks on the price of Israel’s suppression of political participation & the price we all unwillingly pay even if not poltically active
This “professor” has 50 harassment cases (according to the president of Columbia University) raised against him that did not lead to any repercussions. Imagine being a student in any of his classes.
this individual is a professor at columbia university and has been filming students at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
he wears all black and refers to students as “terrorists”.
Recommend staying away for personal safety.

This boy lived through 153 days of massacres, unimaginable violence and famine. Scared and starved, he was crushed by “aid”.
Fuck anyone who could have stopped this since day 1 and did not, fuck Israel and fuck all arab countries throwing aid as bombs on Gazans...
Airdropping aid is the most inefficient, potentially harmful, and dehumanizing method of delivering assistance. It can inadvertently serve to absolve governments that are complicit in ongoing genocides. Today's airdropped aid resulted in fatalities, including a young boy Muhand…

Every night, my 2-year-old son wakes up asking for water. Most days, we don’t have clean water that I can give him, and I refuse to give him water that we fill in our tanks and risk him getting sick. Some nights, I boiled water to “purify it” and give it to him. I hate this.

So much to be said about how we invested our twenties to access Western academic institutions to escape our fascist regimes, just to be slapped with the ugly reality of racism, discrimination and dehumanization. Our lives will not be the same. Our work should not be the same.
Starting PhD during lockdown felt doomed. So, I started to write in the acknowledgment section. Then, it became a thing to write section of acknowledgment at the beginning of each year.
Crazy to realize how many people change throughout and how taxing but rewarding each stage is!
Not surprised but still worth mentioning, the UN woman office of course did not move a finger to protect the female activists being assaulted and arrested in Egypt. خراااااا عليكم
What the fuck? How ignorant, offensive and racist is she? Telling him no time to speak about Palestinians’ rights while simultaneously yelling that he is not respecting her for being a woman?

I do not understand why can’t Egypt even just supply water to Gaza through water pumps or whatever? How is water cut for this long? How are Palestinians obliged to stand in lines for hours to get water under continuous bombardement?

Only reason PhDs are not taxed, it’s for the education years not to be counted on the tracked years to get the right to stay in the host country …
True journalism. I can’t comprehend how they are still choosing to report, although the world (and most journalist platforms) decided to speak lies that kill them. I wish every unethical journalist to see this and imagine for a second what they are going through.
