The Palestinian Friend I Am Raising Money For Is A Labor Activist, It's How We Met. We Had Already Been

A simple edit of this open source image. Slingshots have become a common symbol of Palestinian resistance, as many heavily one-sided conflicts over the years have involved protesters throwing and slinging stones against the Israeli army who are of course fully equipped with guns, tanks and armor.

As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my Palestinian best friend, to help him support his girlfriend in remaining in America until it's safe for her to travel back home and to help his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids in the West Bank (this has unfortunately hit his family quite hard) and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with. You can find the design above here. Here are some product examples:

I have been made aware that this free graphic looks somewhat similar to a Gogol Bordello album cover when on a yellow background, so just be aware of that possible association when purchasing I guess.

Palestine Brushstroke Designs

Three brushstroke overlay photos, two of the Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound's Dome of the Rock and one of the Palestinian flag (edited to add "compound", the dome is not the main prayer hall in  المسجد الأقصى, thank you to @freepalestine-believer for pointing out the possible confusion).

For those who haven't seen my posts yet, my best friend (the nicest person I have EVER met, hands down) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go first and foremost to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this war.

These designs are found in my collection here on stickers, shirts, mugs, etc, along with all of my other work. New stuff being added pretty much daily. The first two should be live now, the last is waiting for approval and will probably be up by tomorrow.

I'd also like to point out the three designs that have received the most attention on Redbubble so far:

New Palestine Designs

I'm back! Turns out there was a weird glitch and my posts have been pretty much shadowbanned this past week. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed this past week and probably could not see my previous thank yous.

For those who haven't seen my posts yet, my best friend (the best person I have EVER known) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely and helping his other loved ones weather the violence and financial hardship.

The new designs above (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, prints, etc (click on each to see more product options).

We're hopeful that the ceasefire will mitigate the harm being done to my friend's family going forward. He's already had some loved ones hurt that this money can help so for now I will continue the fundraising (plus we do not feel safe hoping that the ceasefire will last, unfortunately). For now his girlfriend has remained safe and financial planning for her trip here is going okay. Most of his immediate family is okay (extended family and friends not entirely so unfortunately). I will keep updates somewhat vague to protect their privacy. We greatly appreciate all your help!

Dove With Keffiyeh - New Variants

For those who haven't seen my posts yet, my best friend (the best person I have EVER known) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.

(also sorry for double posting, account is being weird)

This dove wearing a keffiyeh is one of my most popular designs so far, so I've added four new versions of it. Thank you to the customer who bought this dove and four other designs on stickers yesterday! These designs (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, prints, etc (click on each to see more product options).

As always, EVERYTHING I RAISE from my shop is for my best friend to send home to support his friends and family in Gaza, the West Bank and surrounding areas of the Levant facing collateral damage. I think his family who live in Lebanon are okay at the moment at least but the situation there is obviously pretty uncertain right now. Hoping they stay safe, he has a few people who are very important to him living around Beirut.

I still haven't been able to find the definitive origin of the quote above, Pablo Neruda seems to be the most common suggestion. Would love to know if anyone knows. The two designs above are available on stickers, shirts, art prints and more in my shop HERE.

Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far! We greatly appreciate all the support and we hope you are enjoying your purchases. Hope to spot some of my art at protests with the new semester starting up!

Here's a sample of some of the things that have sold from my fundraising shop recently. Sorry I've been so checked out, we're super busy with the student protests here. I encourage everyone to get involved with whatever your campus is doing for Palestine!

As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my best friend who is Palestinian. The extra income will help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.

I had a black and white version of this design in the fundraiser already, I added this tie dye one here. As usual EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend who is Palestinian to help him support his loved ones. You may also feel free to use any of my designs for your own activism (or profile photos or whatever else), just please don't try to sell my designs yourself. Here are some examples of this design on products (shirts, hat, bag, sticker):

I wanted to design something that the friend I am raising money for will actually wear this time. He's pretty minimal with his clothing, I've handmade a couple things for him in the past but none of my shop designs so far have suited him. Here's what I made:

The map is black with white lettering for stickers/magnets, white with black lettering on other products. I made it really small on the clothes and ordered him a basic gym shirt. The design can be found here.

A few of the designs from my fundraiser. All of the ones I'm sharing today adapt older art. From the top: an edited Henry Meunier print (using a picture of my own keffiyeh), a Warhol inspired design (the keffiyeh comes from an open source photo, the eyes from a vintage movie poster), an edited vintage pulp comic, and at the bottom two Julie de Graag prints.

As usual EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend to support his friends and family in Gaza and the West Bank (and sometimes surrounding areas in the Levant suffering collateral damage).

I have 178 designs and I add more whenever I have a new idea (also open to suggestions). You can find these designs in my shop HERE. To see a design on different products click on the display product and scroll down or go here to browse by design. Most designs are available on a wide range of products (shirts, stickers, pins, hats, notebooks, etc). The cat on the orange background shown here is my most popular t-shirt design.
