“In a situation of injustice and oppression, there can be no neutrality! You have to take sides, you have to say, ‘Am I on the side of justice or am I on the side of injustice?!’”

– Archbishop Desmond Tutu

STOP THE GENOCIDE
IN GAZA!

"We do not need to consider ourselves activists to be a part of change on this planet—all people can attune to our conscience and shared humanity, take action and be a part of change. As Archbishop Desmond Tutu reminds us, neutrality in the face of oppression and injustice is complicity. This is an uncomfortable truth for many. In my experience, attuning to our conscience and the right to dignity and freedom for all people/s does not involve neutrality. Most often, it is both unavoidable and necessary to take a side when standing together for change. The present course of genocide, ecocide and omnicide on this planet requires taking a side and taking a stand—for the sake of all human and more-than-human kin and the living Earth."—excerpt from new essay,"Taking a Side and Taking a Stand on the Genocide in Gaza," by Fabiola Nabil Naguib, posted May 19, 2024.
