Thank you for this piece - I too have been on the receiving end of significant backlash for my activist work. But speaking out is, as you said, the least we can do right now, even as systems and people try to silence us
I wish there is a way where we can somehow compensate all content creators , creatives , celebrities etc who show support to Palestine and end up losing something in the process. I know that there are people in more desperate need but I wish there is a way to show gratitude to those who sacrificed. I’m Palestinian and I feel in debt when I see someone basically putting their career on the line in order to speak up for Free Palestine
Thank you! Palestine continues to open the world's eyes, and we can't unsee what we've seen. The world knows the truth. I'll never forget or forgive. I've been vegan for about to be 15 years, and I've realized that yes, there unfortunately are many vegans who are zionists. I know we will see the non-existence of zionism in our lifetime though. I have kufiyas by Hirbawi, and I have their copper bracelet. We'll never stop. Palestine will be free.
I love everything that you do, thank you Venetia for consistently speaking up! I think this also says a lot about how "free" the rest of us actually are, I say this because it's easy to feel discouraged from/fear of speaking up about something that's so blatantly wrong.
Thank you for linking such brilliant resources, the effort doesn’t go unnoticed

I didn't know vegan friendly is zionist?
Yes, they are. There are Instagram accounts called @vegansforpalestine and @vegans4collectiveliberation that share important and helpful info.
