MFs that talk all that antifa game, but won't utter the word Palestine during a live-streamed Genocide, can go motherfuck themselves
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
And ICYMI, they actually did an official Ted Talk in north Gaza back in 2015 - Shujaiya.
Israel almost entirely destroyed the neighborhood.

"Children of all ages are invited to build a symbolic white kite in commemoration of #RefaatAlareer, #Palestinian poet whose poem '#IfIMustDie' inspired our event.
"In his poem he suggests that a child might look up into the sky and see white kites flying there and imagine them to be Angels coming to bring Love back to the Earth.
"And so we connect our passion for #Palestinian lives with the sorrowful need of our Earth for heightened and deepened love from each of us.
"We will close the gathering with a parade, carrying our symbolic kites along the sidewalks of downtown Brunswick.
"We hope to see you there!"

‘How many dead Palestinians are enough?’ The unbearable prescience of the late poet Refaat Alareer
"The author and academic was killed in an Israeli airstrike a year ago. A posthumous collection of his work, If I Must Die, tells the stories of Gaza in a plea for change..."

🌹 Remembering the late great Refaat Al Areer on his birthday today.
A brilliant writer, poet, and professor whose work gave a voice to the people of #Gaza.
His words were filled with truth, resilience, and hope. Though he may no longer be with us, his legacy will live forever in our hearts.
Rest in power, Refaat.
See you in Liberation.
If I must die
by Refaat Alareer (1979 - 2023)
If I must die,
you must live
to tell my story
to sell my things
to buy a piece of cloth
and some strings,
(make it white with a long tail)
so that a child, somewhere in Gaza
while looking heaven in the eye
awaiting his dad who left in a blaze–
and bid no one farewell
not even to his flesh
not even to himself–
sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above
and thinks for a moment an angel is there
bringing back love
If I must die
let it bring hope
let it be a tale
