ID: a tweet by @/ajplus AJ+ that reads “Bisan Owda has just won one of broadcast journalism's highest honors – the Peabody Award – for her work with AJ+.

Bisan is currently facing instance Israeli bombardment in Rafah in the Occupied Gaza Strip. This is a message to the world:”

And there's a video attached to the tweet.

VD: a video of Bisan speaking about her experiences, the solidarity for Palestinian liberation and her gratitude for people standing with Palestine. The video is captioned “Bisan and AJ+ have won the Peabody Award”. It also shows clips of what Palestinians are going through and protests for Palestine.

Transcript: Hey everyone, this is Bisan from Gaza, Rafah. I'm still alive. Thank god. And this is a very important event, so allow me, please, to speak in my native language. Acknowledging journalists' efforts at this time is really important to me. It shows the world what's happening to us. At a time when the [Israeli] occupation is murdering us – journalists, doctors, medics and civilians, as if we are supporting terrorism. We rise to simply document the genocide happening to our people and we expose the oppression to the world. I don't believe, and no one in the world should believe, that a terrorist is someone who strikes to make people's voices heard. A terrorist is someone who commits genocide, supports genocide, stands by genocide, remains silent during genocide, and rejoices genocide. The victory of Palestinian cause was never just for Palestinians; it is a rather victory for humanity. The Palestinians [cause] is like the sun, it cannot be covered by a veil. And justice will find it's way back to its rightful owners eventually. The primary tactic of the occupation is to divide the people and to create conflicts among them are we can never support one another. And right now, we are destroying one of the occupation's strongest tools by standing with eachother worldwide. Therefore, I dedicate this award to all the college students who are protesting, to all the people who took the streets, to all the people at home who are participating in boycotts, to all the people worldwide regardless of their religion, color, ethnicity and kind. Regardless of what makes them different, they're united in one mission: In their demands for a free Palestine. You deserve this award. And so do we. And one day, this genocide will end. And Palestine will be free. And we will welcome you here. On Gazan soil. All of you. Gaza [is open to you all], thank you so much for this award and for always supporting us, standing by us, and for continuing to do so until we achieve our demands: An end to the genocide. A ceasefire. And a free Palestine. This award is for all the voices of liberation around the world. And Palestine and abroad. We will remain holding on to our land, and documenting the truth. [And I hope] you will remain in the streets, calling for a free Palestine. Free Palestine, free Palestine. Palestine will only be free.

going to start researching sheep breeds that are like endangered or need conservation and then seek out their wool to use, preferably buying directly from the herders, so i can support them

i found a farm that has Navajo-Churro sheep and sells their wool as roving and yarn directly to the public, along with several other uncommon breeds :) website here

holy shit theres a lot of small farms out there with heritage breed sheep n other animals selling their fiber!!

re: your tags, totally fine to reblog!! there's a whole database of farms im looking at now on the Livestock Conservancy website!! here's the link, all you have to do is select "yarn" or "fiber" from this drop down menu

and it'll give you contact info and websites to A BUNCH of small farms selling their heritage breed fiber directly!! you can also look up by animal breed if you want a specific kind of fiber like, say Navajo-Churro

it's AWESOME!! many of these farms seem to be certified by the Conservancy and the Conservancy itself seems to be like a good nonprofit

thanks so much! super excited to take a look at this:)
