The Great Imagining

As the #GlobalSumudFlotilla edges closer to #Gaza, a video of a young Palestinian child waiting for a #flotilla has captured attention. In the footage, a young girl from Gaza sends a message of love and appreciation to the Global Sumud Flotilla as she waits for it to arrive with urgently needed humanitarian aid, including food, medicine, and baby formula. As the vessel sails toward waters where past attempts to break the Israeli blockade have been intercepted, organisers of the flotilla, along with residents of Gaza, are calling on the international community to raise their voices and pressure governments to ensure the ship’s safe passage.

@buzyizzy21 @MrMatthewTodd She is probably psychologically protecting herself from the impossible to think about future for her and her children. Come to her with compassion, kindness and empathy. And don’t forget that as your grandchildren get older they will also be an influence on her.

@MrMatthewTodd Had a massive argument with my 33 yr old daughter yesterday over her totally flippant attitude to CC. She already has one child of 2 and is now expecting again, yet refuses to adapt her life to lessen her footprint. I do everything I can, why am I even trying? 😟

We send kids off to school, tell them to work hard and respect the process of learning, respect the teachers, learn facts, respect education - but on this issue we then behave as if the science they learn is not true. It must be totally disorientating. Kids today are being gaslit by the world including schools and their parents. theguardian.com/environment/20…
