#FreePalestine
If you’ve not been keeping up with the latest on what’s happening with Palestinians, if you’ve stayed ‘neutral’ on the matter, if you’ve not spoken up because it doesn’t impact you, or if you don’t know enough, the time has come.

A short list on all the ways you can help as an average citizen is as below. Take a look!
1. Post on social media
Words have been twisted, propaganda is continually spreading. Post, share, retweet, do what you must to keep with the real narrative.
By sharing, it travels to your family, friends, their families, their friends, so on and so forth. You contribute to the mass shift in perspective.
You’ll set off reactions, you’ll deconstruct stereotypes, you’ll stop censorship of the truth.
2. Talk about it with anyone
Have productive and engaging conversations with people who are willing to be educated.
You could get more people to post, donate, talk, join in the movement.
3. Donate within your means
This contributes to organizations who are on the mass scale of aiding and assisting Palestine.

4. Take the time to self-educate
This allows you to create informed thoughts and dialogue. Use the right vocabulary to avoid further perpetuation.
It’s not conflict, religious, war, attacks, terrorism, both sides.
It’s apartheid, displacement, resistance, response, retaliation, liberation, hypocrisy, freedom fighters, violence, colonialism, ethnic cleansing, anti-zionism, illegal settlements.
5. Boycott and protest
When you boycott businesses, you are doing your part to not endorse genocide. You take away the ability of the occupation to fund their activities in Palestine.
Brands: HP, Puma, Siemens, AXA, Israeli Fruit and Vegetables, SodaStream, Ahava, Sabra.
Besides that, join a protest, a march, an effort. Maybe even start one to fight for Palestinian rights.
Every voice matters and counts, show up for Palestine.
