Palestine Will Be Free Banner

$200.00
sold out

Handpainted poppy & lettering on fabric to raise funds for direct aid in Palestine.

Proceeds from these banners will go to support the food sovereignty work of Yousef Sager in Gaza. The heartbreaking news arrived on October 21st that Yousef was martyred in an airstrike. Yousef helped found the organization @thamra_org that grew food and worked towards land restoration. 🕯️Sharing these words from the Legacy donation page~
“Yousef’s vision was expansive; he dreamed of a community where everyone had access to fresh food, where the land thrived, and where hope blossomed even in the harshest conditions. “We are the architects of our future,” he would proclaim, igniting a fire within those around him. His unwavering faith in the power of collective action fueled a movement, encouraging individuals to rise above their circumstances and contribute to a shared vision of prosperity.
In honouring Yousef’s legacy, we are called to embrace his vision and carry it forward.
Let us plant our own seeds of hope and resilience, nurturing our communities and uplifting those around us. Every small action contributes to a larger transformation; every act of kindness, every garden planted, brings us closer to the world Yousef envisioned. Together, we can ensure that his spirit continues to inspire us, reminding us that even in the face of adversity, we have the power to create a brighter future.
“In giving, we receive; in sharing, we heal.”
~Yousef Abu Rabia

Half of the proceeds will be donated to Thamra.org, and the other half to Yousef’s legacy work on GiveButter.org.

Banners will be shipped out in early December after Whalesong Revoultion show has been taken down
