We come together as artists and advocates, but most importantly as human beings witnessing the devastating loss of lives and unfolding horrors in Israel and Palestine.
We ask that, as President of the United States, you call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Gaza and Israel before another life is lost. More than 5,000 people have been killed in the last week and a half – a number any person of conscience knows is catastrophic. We believe all life is sacred, no matter faith or ethnicity and we condemn the killing of Palestinian and Israeli civilians.
We urge your administration, and all world leaders, to honor all of the lives in the Holy Land and call for and facilitate a ceasefire without delay – an end to the bombing of Gaza, and the safe release of hostages. Half of Gaza’s two million residents are children, and more than two thirds are refugees and their descendants being forced to flee their homes. Humanitarian aid must be allowed to reach them.
We believe that the United States can play a vital diplomatic role in ending the suffering and we are adding our voices to those from the US Congress, UNICEF, Doctors without Borders, The International Committee of The Red Cross, and so many others. Saving lives is a moral imperative. To echo UNICEF, “Compassion — and international law — must prevail.”
As of this writing more than 6,000 bombs have been dropped on Gaza in the last 12 days — resulting in one child being killed every 15 minutes.
“Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of food, water, electricity, medicine and safe access to hospitals, following days of air strikes and cuts to all supply routes. Gaza’s sole power plant ran out of fuel Wednesday afternoon, shutting down electricity, water and wastewater treatment. Most residents can no longer get drinking water from service providers or household water through pipelines…. The humanitarian situation has reached lethal lows, and yet all reports point to further attacks. Compassion — and international law — must prevail.” – UNICEF spokesperson, James Elder
Beyond our pain and mourning for all of the people there and their loved ones around the world we are motivated by an unbending will to stand for our common humanity. We stand for freedom, justice, dignity and peace for all people – and a deep desire to stop more bloodshed.
We refuse to tell future generations the story of our silence, that we stood by and did nothing. As Emergency Relief Chief Martin Griffiths told UN News, “History is watching.”
while there are many celebrities who stand with colonizers and are quite literally supporting a genocide, here’s a list of celebrities who have come together and wrote a letter in support of palestine calling for an immediate ceasefire and allowance of aid into gaza (yes, israel is currently blocking all aid from getting into gaza)
the following celebrities have used their platform and privilege for the better:
Alia Shawkat Alyssa Milano Amanda Seales Amber Tamblyn America Ferrera Andrew Garfield Anoushka Shankar Aria Mia Loberti Ayo Edebiri Bassam Tariq Bassem Youssef Cate Blanchett Channing Tatum Cherien Dabis Darius Marder David Cross Dominique Fishback Dominique Thorne Elvira Lind Farah Bsaiso Fatima Farheen Mirza Hasan Minhaj Hend Sabry Ilana Glazer Indya Moore James Schamus Jeremy Strong Jessica Chastain Joaquin Phoenix Jon Stewart Kristen Stewart Macklemore Mahershala Ali Margaret Cho Mark Ruffalo May Calamawy Michael Malarkey Michael Stipe Michelle Wolf Mo Amer Oscar Isaac Quinta Brunson Ramy Youssef Riz Ahmed Rooney Mara Rosario Dawson Ryan Coogler Sandra Oh Sebastian Silva Shailene Woodley Shaka King Susan Sarandon Vic Mensa Wallace Shawn Wanda Sykes

I’m not sure if I like this show or if it has a more annoying soap opera stuff going on in it than Scream the series…
But I like the killer’s costume.
And it’s got some familiar Canadian actors I recognize and like. So there’s that.
