Demand Ceasefire Now: Free Palestine

Dear friend,

I don’t know where you are in the world or what news you’re receiving. From where I’m standing, it’s become painfully clear that the mainstream media and most of our national governments are missing the bigger picture.

Humanity has not been centred.

Too many continue to participate in the narrative of “sides.”

This is incorrect. We are one human race undivided. There are no sides.

If you are confused right now, I recommend listening to Dr. Gabor Maté’s explanation. Maté is a Holocaust survivor and world-renowned expert on trauma. If you don’t have an Instagram account, search “Gabor Mate Israel Palestine” on Youtube to find the talk.

If you’re looking for more context I recommend watching Twitchy Witch’s videos. Twitchy is of middle eastern descent and studied the conflict for her Phd.

If you’re struggling with the pain of witnessing what’s unfolding, I recommend trying Groundwork’s “Drop In” Meditation (on Spotify or Soundcloud). There is power in our pain. When we are in touch with our pain, instead of in resistance to it, we can think more clearly and take more aligned action.

If you have the ability to speak up or stand up, I encourage you to do so. What Israel is doing to Palestine is genocide. The more of us who refuse to look away or carry on as normal, the likelier it is that we will be able to stop it.

With love and hope,

Kelly
