  1. Got up early to draw hot bath for Mom.
    I'm having morning tea & going to start watching the #documentary film, Where the Oilve Tree Weeps, now.

    You can donate to view it. There is also a free option for folks who are financially strapped.

    [ Where Olive Trees Weep offers a searing window into the struggles and resilience of the #Palestinian people under #Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice.

    We follow, among others, Palestinian #journalist and #therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots #activist Ahed Tamimi, and Israeli journalist Amira Hass. We also witness Dr. Gabor Maté offer #TraumaHealing work to a group of women who were tortured in Israeli prisons.

    Ancient landscapes bear deep scars, having witnessed the brutal reality of ancestral land confiscation, expulsions, imprisonment, home demolitions, water deprivation, and denial of basic human rights. Yet, through the veil of oppression, we catch a glimpse of resilience—deep roots that have carried the Palestinian people through decades of darkness and shattered lives.

    This emotional journey bares the humanity of the oppressed while grappling with the question: what makes the oppressor so ruthlessly blind to its own cruelty? ]

  2. CW: The unalienable right to life includes ending preventable deaths

    @shansterable it's also an #implementation of #unalienable rights, specifically the #RightToLife includes the #RightToPreserveLife

    It's not an entitlement to #freeMedicalCare - it's the recognition that what we would #doForOurselves or our #families should be done for our #communites.
