#salaam — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #salaam, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Exonerated “Central Park Five” member #Yusef #Salaam issued a statement on social media mimicking a full-page ad that Donald Trump issued 36 years ago that has become a flashpoint in Trump's political rise.
    Salaam's open letter refers to an ad Trump placed in several New York newspapers in 1989, calling for the state to bring back the death penalty and strengthen policing in the city after the brutal beating and rape of a female jogger in Central Park.

    Salaam and four friends, known as the "Central Park Five," were falsely accused of the crime and imprisoned.
    “Over 30 years ago, Donald Trump took out full page ads calling for my execution,” Salaam tweeted.
    “On the day he was arrested and arraigned, here is my ad in response.”

  3. I endorse this moving interpretation of the conflict in Israel-Palestine.

    Like the authors, I urge a determined and just pathway to two democratic and peaceful states.

    To want this is not crazy - but it is crazy to expect ordinary Palestinians and Israelis to continue to exist in fear, insecurity, and mutual dehumanization

  5. It is important now, more than ever, to affirm that intentional attacks on civilian populations are always wrong, no matter what....even for what we believe are just causes.

    A thoughtful piece that discusses the elements of the #Nakba from a Palestinian perspective.

    I think it is good supplemental reading for those celebrating #Israel75 right now, because these stories are too intertwined to ever really separate. A just and peaceful settlement in Israel/Palestine will require looking squarely at both of these stories.

  8. I have largely avoided news from #Israel and #Palestine over the last few days, but jumped over to #Haaretz a moment ago and am horrified by the headlines.

    I don't have any great wisdom to add to the conversation, except to say that this not ok. None of it is:-- raids on the Al-aqsa mosque, rocket attacks on civilian populations in Israel, the use of indiscriminate firepower in densely populated #gaza... all of it is evil and should be called out as such.

    #Passover is a time of celebrating liberation and practicing hospitality. It is not a time for war.

    I know it is a shorthand we all use to speak of Israel and Palestine as singular entities, but in reality both nations are fractious messes, full of people with very different perspectives, and varying degrees of actual democracy.

    There are many Palestinians and Israelis who want a real and lasting #peace. They just aren't being heard right now.
