Photography from La La Lil Jidar Collective

July 3, 2024

Good morning. Remember that every day is a good day to stand in solidarity with Palestine.

LEARN. Art helps we humans share our emotions and experiences in a deep and meaningful way. Take a few minutes to connect with the photography on this site, from the La La Lil Jidar Collective.

NOTICE. What do you think and feel when you look at the image above? In what ways do the people in the photograph remind you of people in your life?

ACT. Make a contribution to the UNICEF State of Palestine Appeal, here, to support their tireless work to provide humanitarian assistance in Gaza.

SHARE. Forward this to just one friend who will take the time to look through some of the photographs and stories from the La La Lil Jidar Collective.

ASK. What other collectives of artists have you come across in the movement to free Palestine? Please reply to this email (or, if you are reading this online, leave a comment below) to let us know.*

In solidarity for Palestinian liberation,

Kay Coughlin, on behalf of the Shades of Anger collective

*You can also continue the conversation with us in the Speaking Up Network, a private social media platform co-created by Animah Kosai, one of the leaders of Shades of Anger.

Shades of Anger was created by a global collective of women to raise awareness and inspire action to free Palestine. We chose the name of our collective to honor the poem, “Shades of Anger,” by Palestinian-Canadian poet Rafeef Ziadah. We also believe in liberation for Sudan, the Congo, Haiti, and all places where systems of oppression are causing immense suffering and crushing the life out humans. We are led by women of the Global Majority/BIPOC. Shades of Anger is for everyone who wants to act for liberation and you can learn more about it here.
