As buildings collapse on top of them, these two young men from Gaza are desperate to tell their story to the world, so that we will recognize and end the brutality their families are experiencing. It is the VERY SAME brutality that sweeps across African cobalt mines, American cop cities, and throughout history wherever there was land to steal and profit to squeeze from the people living there.
Ramy is only 19, and was denied at the border when his family escaped, fleeing to find emergency surgery for his young sister. Sobhe is only 23, and his family was given 10 minutes to evacuate their home before it was bombed in front of them. Both have lost their dearest family members to shelling and stavation, and just want to be freed from this ongoing, hellish, and wholly undeserved punishment.
Take a moment of your day to listen to the story from the mouths of the people living it -- rather than some sanitized and repackaged soundbite from the mainstream media. And donate any amount that you can to their fundraising campaigns linked below. We've already seen families get to safety, or at least get the food they need to survive, with simple campaigns like these. Even sharing their stories on social media improves their chances of being seen and supported, and of the world knowing what is really going on.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
