Racism isnโt saying an uncomfortable word. Racism is every news media reporting on the individual lives of the 33 adult settler hostages to be released in Phase 1, and not one mention of the 100+ Palestinians, 25 of whom are children, that Israel has murdered since announcing the ceasefire. Theyโll try to kill as many as they can before Sunday.
It's blatantly obvious that the only reason the Korean war is "forgotten" to americans and the Vietnam war is remembered is because the latter was far more unpleasant for american soldiers, which is the only moral consideration the yankee mind is capable of making
I would also put the fact that there was a stronger anti-imperialist revolutionary movement in opposition to Vietnam than against the Korean War which was coincidentally occurring during the McCarthyist period.
Martรญn Luther King was assassinated shortly after a number of speeches condemning the Vietnam War and connecting his struggle against racism and poverty to the struggle against war in general. Huey Newton and Fred Hampton would both be assassinated for their revolutionary political activities, which included connecting the oppression of Black people to the oppression of the third world which was the basis of their own opposition to the Vietnam War. There were gay socialist magazines connecting homophobia to imperialism.
This was a period of mass civil unrest and the white ruling class genuinely feared the opposition to the Vietnam War would escalate into a revolutionary civil war much like Russia and China.

โผ๏ธ please don't scroll โผ๏ธ
Hello, I am Karam Abu Asaker, a human medicine student at the Islamic University of Gaza. I finished the third stage and I aspired to become an orthopedic doctor, but with the start of the war my situation changed. ,๐
Now my educational career has stopped, my university where I was studying has been destroyed, the Turkish Friendship Hospital is being used as a military barracks, and the Israeli army is taking it as the main headquarters for its operations there. It is now located in the Netzarim area (the area separating northern and southern Gaza). These pictures, one of which I took with my phone camera, prove that.
I used to live in the city of Rafah. Have you heard of it? Yes, we were forcibly displaced from our homes and they were destroyed, and now we live in a tent near the seashore.โบ๐
My friends, I have created this campaign to collect donations to save my family, provide them with healthy food and clean water, and also to complete my education outside the Gaza Strip. My dream and my family's life depend on your donations. Do not be stingy. Every 5 euros is worth a lot to me and my family๐๐ปโค๏ธ๐
โ My Donation link๐๐ป
From October 2023
The campaign was documented by @90-ghost.
(Feel free to explain your reasoning in the tags!)
๐๐๐Earth is a wonderful planet, but of course, some of the people who live here can do some atrocious activities, like the genocide of the Palestinian people in their home of Gaza. ๐
If you voted, all I ask is you consider donating or even helping to boost my good friend's gfm so she and her children can escape the ongoing genocide.
Currently we only have ยฃ2,086 / ยฃ55,000 raised for the Zaquot family. Don't let donations stagnate, help this beautiful family and do what you can by donating and sharing.
Our dreams have been destroyed, and we have nothing left...๐
๐ซYou're our last hope in this life๐ซ
I'm Lama from Gaza, I'm 24 years old, and my husband is Mohammad... We got married in 2022 in a house full of love and happiness. Our house was beautiful, we chose everything in it carefully... We were waiting for the end of the day to go there after a tiring day of work, but the occupation did not leave us. ๐๐ญ๐
This house was bombed with all hatred. Here we are after the genocide. We have nothing... We lost our house, our work, and our car.๐ญ๐
We were displaced to Rafah in a tent that could not accommodate 5 people, and after the displacement from Rafah, we were displaced to Mawasi Khan Yunis again. It was a very difficult period... but now we are in Mawasi Khan Yunis in a tent that does not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer.๐๐ญ
This is our tent, its floor is made of cardboard, as you can see, and I suffer from severe eczema due to the pollution of the air and the materials used, and the medicine is very expensive.๐ญ๐
Urgent: My husband needs a very necessary operation and medication. Please help my husband in order for his health to improve. He is in pain.๐๐ญ๐ซ๐๐
Help us and donate to us. You are our last hope and the lifeline of this life. ๐ซ๐
We need you...Donate to us and save what is left of us.๐๐๐

If you voted, can you also share ( @freepaleatine95 ) Marah's story? Her family is living under dangerous conditions in Gaza where they are at risk from the bombings and other attacks. Everyday is a struggle and Marah hopes her family will not be starved. They've raised $53,175 / $70,000 as of now. Even just a small donation or one reblog can help.
Tagging for reach, let me know if you wish to be removed.
