Palestine is being pulverized while the world watches. Images of our brothers and sisters, most of them children, are flooding our circles, and though we’re sharing them incessantly amidst censorship, pushback, and lies, it feels like shouting into a void. There is collective pain in our global ummah on many levels.
How do we deal with the trauma we are witnessing through our screens? How do we cope with feelings of powerlessness, despair, and anguish? How do we cope with the loss of loved ones due to genocide? How can we be courageous and continue to support and lend voice to the oppressed even when the whole world is against us? How can we speak truth to power within our means, especially in the face of threats to our livelihood?
