Today’s birdposting! The Palestinian sunbird! I think sunbirds are so special because they are completely unrelated to hummingbirds, but have evolved to fill the same nectar-drinking niche (however, they can’t hover like hummingbirds and instead cling to the flower stems)
This is the Palestine sunbird. Attempting to erase Palestinian identities, Israeli authorities tried to change its name. In 2015, it was declared the national bird of Palestine. It’s a symbol of hope, freedom, resistance, and culture. It’s as beautiful as the Palestinian people.

i recently learned that the only reason vanilla is considered to be a "common" flavor, is because an enslaved African child (Edmond Albius) from Réunion invented manual vanilla pollination. Vanilla was never a "common" or "plain" flavor before his intellectual property was stolen
Reading how goods from slavery completely changed the tastes & habits of Europe. Giving rise to capitalism. Therefore our modern consumption habits are informed and written by the practice of slavery & its enslavements. Therefore people have an interest in remaining anti Black.

This is indistinguishable from saying that cis women are "valued" for childbirth and being stay-at-home moms. It makes sense that a Euro neolib nonprofit would glorify historically gendered labor...

They were Palestinian diaspora. However, CBS is framing this as a solely anti-Muslim attack, as saying the word "Palestine" is in itself "political." Palestinians in exile still maintain ties to their villages, contrary to the z**nist view that they are "just arabs/muslims"
A Palestinian-American mom and her 6-year-old boy were stabbed by their landlord in Chicago angered by the events.
