As Jews, we are taking over the Trump Tower to register our mass refusal. We will not stand by as this fascist regime attempts to criminalize Palestinians and all those calling for an end to the Israeli government’s US-funded genocide of the Palestinian people. And we will never

New York values are not those of extremists like Tom Homan, who openly collaborates with racists like the Proud Boys. As they seek to divide everyday Americans to benefit the 1%, we will unite a movement that truly stands up for all working people

NEW: On Monday, I gathered 4+ hours of interviews from Black victims of the LA fires. People that lost upwards of 60 years of their family history. In my latest, I go into these family histories and how disaster gentrification has already arrived. https://t.co/nETaKxVQ2l

Israel's war on Gaza is a genocide, says U.N. rights expert @franceskalbs, who has just released a new report titled "Genocide as Colonial Erasure." There has not only been a failure to prevent genocide, but it has been "enabled through the various organs of the state," she says.

An entire family of 23 people was wiped out in an #Israel’i airstrike on the north #Lebanon christian village of Aito yesterday. They had fled the bombing in the south, taking refuge here. Two of them were babies. Only pieces of these human beings are left.

He was 19. He was an engineering student. He loved the guitar. He was taking care of his family. He built their tent in the hospital compound. He burned to death after Israel bombed his tent while they were sleeping.

The image of hospital patients, tethered to IVs as American-supplied Israeli bombs ignite fires around them in Gaza, may well stand as the defining image of this horror.

Yes that video is real. Yes you just watched Palestinians be burned alive in a hospital. Yes one man was still in his hospital bed. Yes you can still speak up about this. Yes you can change your mind. Yes you can start now. Yes we need you to start screaming alongside us.

"It was revelatory," writer Ta-Nehisi Coates says of his trip to Israel and the occupied West Bank. "I don’t think the average American has a real sense of what we’re doing over there — and I emphasize 'what we’re doing' because it’s not possible without American support."
