Excellent Dos and Don'ts for using social media to talk about Gaza.

Samah Sabawi, profile picture

Please share: #gaza Some dos and don'ts for the social media activists. Do take long breaks, eat exercise and sleep. Don't continue to post after you have reached your breaking point...it can be demoralising for the rest of us...we're all hanging by a thread. Do offer Palestinians and especially people in Gaza emotional support if they need it. Don't ask for emotional support of Palestinians we are really unable to give it now. Do check your sources. Don't post gory pictures of the dead...they have families and most of the time their families have not been asked permission for these photos to be shared. Do protest, action calls, raise awareness. Don't just sit helplessly and cry...we need all hands on board. Do remember this is a long battle. Don't run out of steam. I hope you take my dos and don'ts with a grain of salt and a lot of love. Samah

USPCN is sad to announce the passing of Mike Siviwe Elliott, lifelong organizer and fighter for justice. Mike was politicized on the streets of Detroit, living through the Black rebellion of the 60s, where he witnessed the organizing and intense repression against the Black Panther Party.

He went on to become an auto worker and union organizer in the Detroit auto plants, where he was introduced by Arab colleagues to the Palestinian liberation movement.

We will never forget Mike's unwavering commitment to the Rasmea defense campaign, traveling with us from Chicago to Detroit for each and every court date, and working tirelessly in Chicago to build true cross-community solidarity between Black and Arab communities in support of Rasmea.

Mike was a leader in the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression's camapaign for an all-elected Civilian Police Accountability Council, and a tireless fighter for justice for all oppressed people, with a deep commitment to international solidarity, which he practiced with every waking breath.

We will miss him dearly. Rest in Power, Mike Siviwe Elliott!
