anyway you should always remember that all those foreigners you see dying on the news are just as real people as you are who have just as much interiority as you do. there is nothing about you that makes you more important and it is by pure chance that you are not in their position. in fact, this holds for all of history. every person, no matter the horror of the fate that befell them, had just as much interiority as you do. i feel like some people haven't fully internalized this.

Well!
So first, let's clear a common misconception: no, President Abraham Lincoln did not love Black people nor see them as human equals. At best he was centrist about it (though, even his implication that 'exceptional' Black men ought to vote got him assassinated).
"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do, it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union...I have here stated my purpose according to my view of official duty; and I intend no modification of my oft-expressed personal wish that all men everywhere could be free."
The "freeing of slaves" after the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 was meant to kneecap the economic and military powers of the seceded South. Lettuce stop making a white savior figure out of Lincoln, or thinking that my people's shackles were unchained via anything other than desperate war strategy and extreme violence. Think on that, for a moment.
That being said!
But not everyone in Confederate territory would immediately be free. Even though the Emancipation Proclamation was made effective in 1863, it could not be implemented in places still under Confederate control. As a result, in the westernmost Confederate state of Texas, enslaved people would not be free until much later. Freedom finally came on June 19, 1865, when some 2,000 Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas. The army announced that the more than 250,000 enslaved black people in the state, were free by executive decree. This day came to be known as "Juneteenth," by the newly freed people in Texas.
Consider going through the Smithsonian website to learn about Juneteenth! Recognize why it's an actual day of freedom, versus July 4th and the independence of a select few.

"As of midnight on Sunday, June 15, we have data from about 40% of No Kings Day events held yesterday, accounting for over 2.6m attendees. According to our back-of-the-envelope math, that puts total attendance somewhere in the 4-6 million people range. That means roughly 1.2-1.8% of the U.S. population attended a No Kings Day event somewhere in the country yesterday."

If ANYONE is denied due process, NO ONE is safe.
"But I'm here legally! I don't have a criminal record!" So? We know now that at least some of those rounded up by ICE/DHS were in the US legally and had no criminal record, but without a hearing, never had a chance to prove it. Even if they'd HAD hearings, the current regime is revoking visas and green cards right and left, and refuses to comply with laws and court orders it doesn't like.
As indicated above, it doesn't matter if you're in the US legally or not. Hell, a Canadian celebrity with no criminal record and proven business ties, who had been to the US multiple times before, was imprisoned for two weeks--again, without so much as a hearing--when simply APPLYING for a work visa.
"But I'm a citizen!" How would you prove that without due process? And even if you could prove it, this regime has announced its plans for mass denaturalization, and--again--has already shown it doesn't care about the rule of law.
If you think you're safe, you're deluded.

Help Ahmed 💔
Ahmed, our 4-year-old child, suffers from diabetes. Amid the war, his condition has severely worsened due to the lack of his medication and insulin. We struggle monthly to obtain the necessary insulin needles for him, at exorbitant prices and with great difficulty❤️🩹💔.

Ahmed needs .4 gauge needle tips suitable for his age, but he has been forced to use .8 gauge needles, which cause him great pain, making him cry every time he receives an insulin injection. However, today Ahmed is very happy because we managed to get .4 gauge needle tips after nine months of pain🥹🥹.


Ahmed is supposed to have a special diet for diabetes, but he is forced to eat whatever is available here since the appropriate food is not accessible, which harms his health.
Ahmed should check his blood sugar levels 3 to 5 times daily, but due to the unavailability of test strips, we only test him when absolutely necessary, which happens about once a week.

Help Ahmed obtain his most basic right, which is the right to treatment. You can help by sharing the campaign link or donating🙏🏻🙏🏻. Here is the campaign link:

Please help the Alanqar family! Ahmed is struggling to feed his kids. His baby Ronza is almost a year old, she needs to eat. She's malnourished as is, and she needs milk. She's already lost 2 kg - she should be growing, not starving!! Today Ahmed had to go out into danger to find her milk (she's a baby, it's all she can eat) but couldn't find any due to the genocidal IOF imposed famine making food impossible and dangerous to find.
Ronza's birthday is so soon, please make sure she has at least something to keep her fed! Please do whatever you can to ensure she lives a long and happy and healthy life as all children deserve. Right now Ahmed is looking for at least 10 people to donate at least €10 - this is so achievable 🩷‼️


Do it for her!!!

Today, the Palestine tag is trending on Tumblr — and among the posts is a photo of my daughter, Ronza. A fragile little girl suffering from severe malnutrition, whose story I shared, pleading for help. Her image is now reaching millions of people... but sadly, only a few have responded.
We are not okay. We are not safe. We are living in unimaginable conditions — and tomorrow is Eid al-Adha, a holiday that should bring joy, new clothes, laughter, and celebration to children. But how can my children celebrate when there is no food, no water, no medicine? How can they smile in new clothes when their weak bodies can barely stand?
We are in Gaza — trapped, starving, broken. Every day is a battle for survival.
I am begging you, before it’s too late —Please donate to help Ronza. Her life depends on it. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make the difference between life and death.
Please share this message. Let Ronza’s face be more than just a trending image — let it be a call to action. A reason to save a life.
I would like to inform you that my campaign is documented and approved.
Gazavetters #213 , el-shab-hussein&nabulsi # 264
Eid al-Adha
