“So I'm not just asking—I'm begging with whatever humanity I have left: don't let the silence thicken around us. Don't let the world avert its gaze from our suffering. When you feel that familiar numbness creeping in, when your thumb hovers over "skip," remember that we never get that option. We don't get to mute the sound of our own nightmare.
Take what we show you and stitch it into the bigger picture. Speak. Share. Write. Organize. Hold conversations that are hard to hold. Keep our truth moving through a world that desperately needs to remember we're still here, still human, still worthy of witness.”

These words by Anis from Gaza, whose writing and reporting I follow, are the inspiration behind this flash.
