  • So famed palestinian film director Mohammad Bakri was just fined the equivalent of $50,000 for a documentary he made in 2002 about the "Battle of Jenin" where the IDF tore apart the jenin refugee camp during the second intifada or uprising against israeli occupation. They didn't allow anyone to come in and out as they unleashed hell on everyone. The UN commission was supposed to investigate it but israel didnt let investigators come in. Bakri has been on trial for over a decade just because he filmed israeli soldiers "without their consent" soldiers who committed many crimes. So heres a link to the 50 minute film where he simply documents the aftermath and the retellings of the massacre from the Palestinian perspective which shouldn't be illegal in the so called "only democracy in the middle east" but israelis were sure mad


    **i have not watched this doc in full bc its too hard for me but i encourage people who dont know about this event to just listen to palestinians speaking about the horrors they faced. I dont think i need to put trigger warnings bc its pretty self explanatory what ur going to witness and hear**

  • Vimeo deleted this for some reason?? So heres a new link if youre interested

  • Okay so in case y'all don’t know, this is from Pose. A series about the black trans community and ball culture in new York during the 80’s. Its got vogueing, lgbt+ culture, history, drama, romance, comedy, tragedy. Its wonderful and historically accurate and all the trans people are played by real trans actors.
