Sharing the Sameer Project/Translating Falasteen's holiday campaign (text and slides from their x page)

"The holiday season is filled with family, warmth, comfort, and memories to last a lifetime. You might get together with loved ones for a meal, you might exchange gifts…please keep Gaza in mind:
From Sameer Project on X: Jesus was Palestinian. Consider making Christmas a little brighter this year for those who need it most. Support our winter campaign and help us spread some warmth and hope to those in Gaza. Food for thought this holiday season Although Bethlehem is technically a Palestinian city, it is surrounded by Israeli checkpoints that severely restrict the movement and entry of Palestinians. A 27-kilometer journey from Ramallah can take up to five hours. Gaza's churches have historically doubled as shelters for families displaced by the Occupation's relentless targeting of Palestinians for almost a century. Since 2023, Israel has bombed every church in Gaza. The Christian community of Gaza is one of the oldest in the world, with almost 2,000 years of history. Israel has killed around 5% of Gaza's Christians. Christmas is inextricably linked to Palestine, both in its history and in the many ways it has been curated to distract us from the many crimes our governments are funding. This holiday season, consider starting a conversation, even if it's uncomfortable. And if you can, consider donating to mutual aid initiatives.
