A few months ago, the Sameer Project collaborated with the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature (@APNorg) to harvest 11 donoms of land. This land produced tons of courgette and cucumber, and some tomatoes. This collaboration cost $10,000 and allowed access to food when borders were fully closed for months. From seedling to watering, prices for farming are extremely expensive in Gaza today. We are hoping to collaborate on more farming projects. Although we can’t manage how much these vegetables are sold for, we can support more and more farms which will create more supply and push the prices down. We are looking to do more collaborations with @APNorg who have over a decade of experience with farmers in Palestine and aim to protect, sustain and establish sovereignty over our natural resources and food. Supporting farming & fishing in Gaza will be the main focus of the collaboration. Donate to the North/South campaigns.

The images of babies frozen to death over the last few nights have been beyond heartbreaking. So we’ve been thinking of different ideas to avoid that from happening again. Noor from the Refaat Alareer camp bought a sewing machine today and will use torn cloth from the market that she’ll wash with the other ladies in the camp to make onesies. We are also working with a pediatrician on a contextualized brochure in Arabic with tips and advise on how to keep babies warm. We will print those and distribute them with the onesies. Our team is also looking for gloves and hats for babies as babies can lose a third of their body heat from their head. The onesie in the photo is made by her for her baby Nooh who’s in the Refaat Alareer camp ❤️ Please donate to the South campaign to support us in making as many onesies as possible: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

If there's one thing about the criminal justice system I'd want popularized on TV, it's that every gang expert is a pathological liar completely untethered to the truth. They just say whatever, because they're paid to.

Urgent Appeal: I am reaching out to all those concerned with press freedom. Today, I was informed by doctors that the health of my friend and Al Jazeera cameraman, Fadi Al-Wahidi, has deteriorated significantly. Fadi was shot by an Israeli sniper while professionally covering events, and he was wearing a press vest clearly marking him as a journalist. We are currently in northern Gaza, under siege by Israeli forces. If he does not receive urgent medical treatment abroad, his life is at serious risk. I urge all human rights organizations, press associations, and international bodies to assist in facilitating his immediate transfer out of Gaza for treatment. Your support could save his life.

Me and my colleagues at @Gothamist & @wnyc spent the last 10 months poring over 100s of lawsuits filed last year by women who say they were sexually assaulted by city employees while they were held at Rikers Island. My final story is out today. This is what we found, a 🧵:

California - VOTE NO ON PROP 1!
Vote NO on Prop 1! Prop 1 is a misleading ballot measure that will defund existing mental health programs to pay for forced treatment facilities. Prop l's real goal is mass institutionalization It removes local funding, control, & accountability Politicians stripped language from the measure at the last minute that ensured funds wouldn't be used for forced treatment Forced treatment increases risk of suicide Psychiatric facilities in LA are the subject of human rights violation investigations A vote for Prop 1 is a vote for torture.

LA is getting 10+ inches of rain soon. More people die of the cold in LA than SF+NY combined. There are only 50 women only emergency shelter beds open in Ktown. There are 60,000 ppl living outside in LA. And our mayor is convening about RETAIL THEFT. I'm about to lose my mind.
