Just a gentle reminder: if you have the chance to help, support, or show some love, you can find my donation link below. Your contributions go directly toward providing:
1. Rent for the land where my tent is set up
2. Daily food costs
3. Public transportation expenses
While I search for a contract with a reliable new #press organization
Thank you, and I’m so proud to be on this journey with you all. 🤍

In January, a post I saw shocked me.
“URGENT: As of now, I have ZERO access to any money,” Hüseyin Dogru wrote. “I can’t provide food for my family, including two newborns, due to #EU sanctions.”
Dogru is a journalist, a German citizen living in #Berlin.
After reading his post, I sent him a private message offering to order groceries and have them sent to his home.
The reply shocked me even more. “Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to accept any financial or material support,” Dogru wrote.
Dogru is the first European Union citizen known to be living inside the EU to face extrajudicial sanctions imposed by Brussels – robbing him of fundamental civil and humanitarian rights.
He’s also the first person to be sanctioned specifically for his reporting related to #Palestine.
“I’m not allowed to exist anymore, I’m not allowed to provide my children with the basic necessities,” he explained on The Electronic Intifada Podcast this week.
“I can’t pay my rent, I can’t pay my lawyers and yes – I’m not even allowed to accept any kind of food, water or medicine whatsoever from third parties.”

"The report draws on in-depth interviews from 59 Palestinian journalists. Of those interviewed, 58 reported being subjected to what they described as torture while in Israeli custody."

It is truly disheartening to see passionate journalistic talent facing such circumstances. A free voice and sincere passion do not cease when a paycheck stops. I urge my professional network and all my friends to take notice of this creative one; here, experience and passion truly meet.
