How we can help palestine

First Of All We Want To Bycott Israel’s Products
Bycott Israel’s Products.
Over the past few weeks, several media outlets have been publishing a list of goods produced by companies openly supporting Israel in its atrocities against Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Several nongovernmental organizations have been calling for a boycott since the latest round of the Palestine-Israel conflict broke out in October. Social media users fervently advocate boycotts with lists of products, including everything from Coca-Cola to products of multinational conglomerate Unilever.The boycott call gained momentum in the past two weeks. At a meeting with representatives of nongovernmental organizations in October, professor Ali Erbaş, head of the Presidency of Religious Affairs (DIB), called for “a decisive, constant boycott” of companies “supporting Zionism.” At the same meeting, Bilal Erdoğan, chairperson of the board of trustees of Ilim Yayma Vakfı (the Foundation for the Expansion of Knowledge), called upon fellow organizations to join the boycott.

Gaza Interrupted

I was scheduled to go to Gaza last Monday. The visit would have been the next in the series of my annual, weeks–or months–long stays in Gaza for the past three decades as a social psychologist studying youth and families. A core lesson from this effort is that despite tremendous cost and pain, one will always fight for the right to have an identity, dignity, a homeland, and basic human rights and freedom. Obviously, I canceled the trip in the

Palestinian Indigeneity and the Master’s Tools

Like many of my Palestinian colleagues who are academics in the U.S., I have found myself offering teach-ins on many campuses (mostly Zooming in) across this continent and Europe, as well as to many community organizations, since the escalation of Israel’s genocidal war on the Palestinian people in the wake of the events of Oct. 7, 2023. I have cited innumerable United Nations General Assembly resolutions, U.N. Security Council Resolutions, and international laws that Israel is violating. I have cited

On the Limits of Sumud in Genocide: A Message from Gaza

It is the thirty-seventh day of Israel’s genocidal rampage on us Palestinians in Gaza, Nov. 12. I write these thoughts not to waste precious energy condemning our occupier or international complicity, nor the futility of human rights laws and bodies. None of it is worth the time. I write these thoughts for myself, for my son, for loved ones in Gaza and afar, to share reflections on existing under genocide. I also share these words with my Palestinian brothers and

About Gaza's situation
As Israel’s ground invasion against Hamas advances, Israeli forces have encircled Gaza City, cutting off the densely populated area from southern Gaza. Though hundreds of thousands of Palestinians evacuated northern Gaza ahead of the invasion, nearly 400,000 people remain trapped there. Hamas has reportedly positioned itself within and below civilian infrastructure, and Israeli strikes on civilian locations like the Jabalia refugee camp have caused massive collateral damage. Israel has so far rejected calls for periodic humanitarian pauses but agreed to allow one hundred aid trucks to enter the territory daily. Meanwhile, the United States is conducting shuttle diplomacy amid simmering regional tensions. Israel continues to exchange rocket fire with Hezbollah in Lebanon and strike alleged Iran-linked targets in Syria. Iran-backed groups have launched dozens of attacks on U.S. military positions in Iraq and Syria, and Yemen’s Houthi rebels entered the fray by launching missiles at Israel.
