A CNN investigation found that the IDF gunned down starving Palestinians trying to collect flour in Gaza. Then they bulldozed the corpses into unmarked graves, where they were left to rot and be scavenged by ravenous dogs.

James Baldwin’s message was simple: we’re afraid of love, because we’re afraid of exposing our true selves.
