Palestine Readings And Resources
The following is a list of resources that includes books, articles, websites, and nonprofits to help you get educated and/or involved in action pertaining to the Palestinian genocide. I originally compiled this list for personal purposes, to use in my own local communities. Since it's been an unbelievably grim and never-ending shit-show on the blog for the past 5 weeks, I now feel compelled to make this list public on here in the hopes that it might benefit someone.
Please be aware:
This post is NOT an invitation for you to treat me as your token Palestinian friend, personal educator, or woke police taskforce. Grow your own moral spine.
This list was originally compiled shortly after October 7. It has, as of the writing of this post, been 163 days. A LOT has happened since. Therefore, this list is not exhaustive.
New ways to get educated and involve have since materialized, and, indeed, new ones materialize everyday. Do your own due diligence and decide what shape your engagement is going to take.
I am using my own specific expertise and skill sets as a scholar and educator of Literature and Philosophy to populate this list. Therefore, naturally, a lot of what you will find on here is geared towards educating and raising awareness about the historical, socio-political, philosophical and cultural underpinnings of this genocide and how its reflected in art.
If you are looking for more practical resources, find activist spaces in your local communities.

So I found Aaron Bushnell's reddit and went through his comments/posts. That young man was well read and stable as they can be. Nothing in his writings pointed to someone who was "unstable" or "brainwashed".
He held leftist and anarchist ideals. He belong to the ACAB subreddit. He recognized the evil of the US Military even though he himself was a part of it. He hated TERFS and called out fatphobia. He understood the dangers of white supremecy and the evils of capitalism.
He had a cat. He liked the show fleabag and played elden ring.
Apparently in his will he wants to leave any money in his name to palestinian relief funds. He was trying to find a new owner for his cat.
Rest in peace Aaron Bushnell. The world won't forget & we sure as fuck won't let the media paint you out to be some crazy conspiracy theorist who had no idea what he was doing.
rewatching supernatural and getting to meet all your fav characters again
We are so backkkk!! This song is great I can't wait to hear the rest. Welcome back to trench my friend
the new twenty one pilots song has my |-/ tattoo that i have for them ITCHING it’s so good. we are so fucking back. they came back just in time for the 1975 to take a break so i can still be annoying and follow bands on tour 😎
Listening to the whole discography of TØP in celebration of the new album coming out
They are clinging so desperately to their disproven atrocity propaganda.
Keep shaming and exposing these genocidal lairs.
im the biggest slut for ST because they gave us the most raw and lyrically dense songs. You??? Menswear?? HEAD.CARS.BENDING??? ROBBERS???? anyone who disagrees you are fundamentally wrong i will die on this hill
@trumanblackblog how fast does your hair grow? I wanna know if we'll be having matching haircuts at my show next month.
my mom, after a long period of silence: what's on your mind?
me, who has been vividly imagining getting fucked disrespectfully by a middle-aged man: nothing :)
What do you mean we're getting a new 75 album BUT ALSO a new twenty one pilots album??? Or music at least I'm sooo confused and excited omgggg next week baby
I remember September 2001. I wasn't even 10 years old and on the other side of the ocean, and yet I saw it. I remember.
How the world was shaken, how the fear was palpable, how the sadness was everywhere. We had a minute of silence in my school, we talked about it at home. The loss was heavy, the earth scarred.
So why ?
Why does Palestine have to endure all of this while everyone is looking away ? Why does my country not helping Gaza ? Why the erasure of so many people, so many innocents, so many children, an entire civilisation and knowledge and faith and beauty, doesn't break the heart of every human being ?
I know a lot of places suffered the same way, still suffer the same way and all because of colonizing countries like mine.
But now, the genocide in Gaza destroyed almost as much as ten World Trade Center attacks.
I can't help but talk about it. Even if it's throught a stupid drawing. This shouldn't have happened. This shouldn't still happen. Ceasefire now. Free Gaza and Palestine.
anyone who has a platform and an audience but is choosing not to advocate for Palestinians is guilty. anyone who's turning a blind eye to the genocide is guilty. anyone who thinks what's happening in Palestine and Yemen is not their concern and does not affect them is guilty. this has far surpassed the stage where it was okay for influential people to not speak up. because frankly, it never was. whoever is choosing to be silent about what's happening is guilty.
Why aren’t the Gaza and Palestine tags trending anymore?
Are some people just done talking because of the ICJ’s hearing and subsequent ruling? (That’s when I noticed the tag start to dip.)
It’s still happening.
Innocent people are still being murdered
Innocent people are still starving
Innocent people are still losing their parents, siblings, children, friends, and neighbors
Innocent people are still fearing for their lives
Israel is currently committing war crimes with the full support of: President Biden (USA), Chancellor Scholz (Germany), Prime Minister Sunak (UK), President Macron (France), Prime Minister Meloni (Italy).
I just don’t understand what’s happening, why is this losing steam? Please, someone, explain it to me. I genuinely want to know.
My pinned post is still, and for the foreseeable future will always be, sulfurcosmos post, which shows you ways you can help Palestine - but always do your own research!

oh so the 1975 played guys (as the full debut in the show) and so far (it's alright).....basically a suicide letter and the songs why I would jump off the nearest bridge knowing that I wouldn't listen to them live
matty healy, george daniel, adam hann and ross mcdonald are def going to pay for their crimes
the 1975 if you even think about playing what should I say without me there I will hurt all of you (yes even you ross)
so far it’s alright? SO FAR ITS ALL RIGHT ?!?!
