You sure can make difficult and political work if youāre up for it, but youāre not obligated to do everything āthrough your art.ā You, the person, can also protect your neighbors and show up for your community however else you can. And itās still good for you to make art besides!!

Those of us not in LA: donate to bail funds. Support their actions openly and refuse to get into debates about whatās āokayā in response to horrific state violence.

"That unprovoked assault violated international law.
Now, Israel has escalated again by targeting another peaceful civilian vessel. 'The world's governments remained silent when Conscience was bombed. Now Israel is testing that silence again,' said Tan Safi, another Freedom Flotilla organizer."

"This latest act of aggression against the FFC follows the unpunished Israeli drone attack on our previous vessel, Conscience, which left four civilian volunteers injured and the ship disabled and burning in European waters. That unprovoked assault violated international law."

"Israel is once again acting with total impunity. It has defied the
International Court of Justiceās binding orders to allow unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza, disregarded the international laws protecting civilian navigation, and dismissed the demands of millions worldwide."

"[Arraf continues:] 'These volunteers are not subject to Israeli jurisdiction and cannot be criminalized for delivering aid or challenging an illegal blockadeātheir detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end immediately.'"

"'Israel has no legal authority to detain international volunteers aboard the Madleen,' said Huwaida Arraf, human rights attorney and Freedom Flotilla organizer. 'This seizure blatantly violates international law and defies the ICJās binding orders requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza.'"

"The ship was unlawfully boarded, its unarmed civilian crew abducted, and its life-saving cargoāincluding baby formula, food and medical suppliesāconfiscated."
