Black people in the U.S. are seven times more likely to be falsely convicted of a serious crime like murder than white people, according to a new report published Tuesday by the National Registry of Exonerations. The finding is based on an analysis of exonerations for serious crimes in the U.S. over the last four decades, which found that Black people make up less than 14% of the U.S. population but account for 53% of exonerations in the country.

hi, @moayeshblog still needs your help so he can eat and feed his family in ghazzah. mohammed has worked tirelessly to do good deeds while trying to survive like his work vetting campaigns, as an emergency healthcare worker & as founder of the Ihyaa intiative.

but these days his full focus is on getting thru daily nombings, hunger, and the pressure from having to ensure his family survives.

tell him you see him and his efforts by sparing $5 today. please help us, who care about him, keep him as healthy as possible.

US President Donald Trump's new travel ban went into effect on Monday, to far less mobilisation and criticism than the first time around, in 2017.  With a bigger mandate this time, and relatively high approval ratings for his immigration policy, Trump's new travel ban has not just expanded, it's also on far more solid legal footing, immigration lawyers told Middle East Eye.

It has spread in my body because of the contamination caused by the explosives that the occupation bombards us with every day. For your information, there is no water for drinking or use, and food is available, if it is available, at exorbitant prices for more than two years. I am Ibrahim, I strive to be well, but we are not well. I do not want much, just a little humanity and mercy. Help me with what you can.🙏😪

listen i know it may be difficult to understand but irans government is not some big brother boogeyman. TO be completely frank, this obsession over irans government is hypocritical because i think of Jordan where you cannot even criticize the king on facebook without the secret police arresting you (this is from family stories) or publish news articles about jordans complicity with the israeli regime without being thrown in jail, but damn i dont see the west trying to force regime change in Jordan and I dont see a ton of news articles on Jordans crazy repressive government and thats because Jordan receives US Aid and is aligned with US interests. I just feel like all this "nuanced" conversations surrounding irans government at a time where the US is actively threatening to destroy them is so unnecessary. Also many of you dont actually know anything about iran and all the information you receive from iran is filtered by the government to news outlets that have been spreading genocide propaganda for the Israelis for years and years. The US policy doesnt care for Iranians, the entire US policy in the global south is installing authoritarians they favor.

Every once in a while I think about how the Swiss have the cachet of “good chocolate” and Italy and France have the “good coffee” and well I don’t even really have the energy to get mad about it anymore

My children cry all night because of extreme hunger. Today I went to the American aid distribution center at the Netzarim point in the northern Gaza Strip. We were randomly shot at and many victims fell before our eyes. I almost got shot, but we started running without thinking. I reached my children exhausted from fatigue and fear, but unfortunately my heart is torn with sadness for them because I returned to them empty-handed. Please, I hope that you will participate and donate as much as you can. We are in very serious danger. Please do not leave us. Help us, whether by participating or donating. We need your humanity more than ever.

ahmed's (@ahmedaldani333) asked me to share his campaign, so as a reminder: ahmed is a teenager trying to help support his family in gaza as they face displacement, hunger, and violence, and could use the help. as i'm sure you've heard, prices of basic necessities like flour are extremely high right now, and he and his family need help to afford food to eat.

ahmed's fundraiser is verified by @gazavetters, and is #198 on their spreadsheet.

his campaign hasn't gotten a lot of attention, so i'd appreciate if you could donate, or if you're unable to, please reblog the post. thank you!

here's the link one more time:

The war has returned again, Gaza is under bombardment and my area is being subjected to heavy shelling. We have lost hope in our rights. We must evacuate this city where there is no security. Donate to my family again, you are our only hope.

Imagine risking your life just to gather food for your family—only for shells to rain down on you as you wait in line.

@diana-family

Written by @rumiandroses

This is the horrifying reality Hossam Al-Qazzaz faced this week.

Already displaced from their home, Hossam, his wife Hanan, and their four children—Bashar (9), Hani (8), Diana (4), and 9-month-old Habiba—are struggling to survive in a battered tent on the coast after being evacuated once again from the ruins of their home in Khan Younis.

To feed his starving family, Hossam often walks over 14 kilometers to reach aid distribution points; an incredibly dangerous journey, where many are shot or trampled in the ensuing chaos of the actual distribution.

Just days ago, while at one such aid distribution site, tragedy struck:

Shells were fired into the crowd.

Hossam was there with his brother-in-law, Mohammed Zanad (who we've previously written about HERE), and Mohammed's son, Abdul Rahman, when the violence broke out. Hossam suffered minor injuries to his face, but his brother-in-law and nephew were badly injured; Mohammed was badly injured by shrapnel across his entire body, while Abdul Rahman suffered a severe injury to his right hand. As of this writing, he remains in a British field hospital awaiting evaluation; the little boy’s hand may require amputation.

After days without contact due to the internet outages in Gaza, Hossam messaged us this morning, frustrated and exhausted:

“We were together, the three of us, at the aid distribution site, and a missile fell on us and those present. Now we can only pray for them. He is a poor little boy. I hope God heals his hand. Please pray for him...”

Like so many in Gaza, the Al-Qazzaz family is trapped in an endless cycle of terror, injury, and loss. They are battling hunger, constant bombardment, and the inability to flee because of closer borders and war-induced financial hardship. Skyrocketing food prices and destroyed infrastructure make basic survival nearly impossible, forcing Hossam and others like him to go to these dangerous aid sites to simply not starve.

Please consider donating to the Al-Qazzaz family's fundraiser. Every dollar we send the Al-Qazzaz family helps Hossam and feed his wife, four young children, and elderly parents without having to risk death to do it; buy formula for the youngest child, baby Habiba; help support the family financially as they are continually forced to relocate and start over with every attack that claims their belongings; and cover any necessary medical care or other essentials for the family.

The trauma this family is enduring is unimaginable, and they need help urgently.

If you are able, we implore you: please share the Al-Qazzaz family's story far and wide, and donate, of you're able. Their campaign has stalled, and they haven't received any donations in days. If we all contribute even a little, we can help this precious family survive—and give them a chance to escape this nightmare.

You can donate to the Al-Qazzaz family's GoFundMe campaign here:
