It has been 3 years of genocide in Gaza, and people like my friend @mohdayesh are still trapped in Gaza with no escape from their treacherous daily life.

Mohammed's wife is pregnant and to this day dealing with the pain of having a bullet lodged in her chest. And Mohammed is bearing the responsibility of trying to keep his family taken care of to the best of his abilities with the limited resources he can get his hands on.

Mohammad and I often spoke of his desires to start a life for himself and his wife outside of the war zone, away from the genocide, where they can finally have a taste of safety and security. There is nothing more that I want than the ability to snap a finger and help him achieve their dreams, but unfortunately that's not within my power. All I can do is plead with you to help.

Mod'd is my friend and someone I've been working with for the past 3 years to ensure that you can trust where your money is going and weed out harmful actors taking advantage of the crisis in Gaza. And he has worked tirelessly to that end. He often doesn't ask for help for himself because he wants to see others thrive, but now he has a wife and a child on the way and he can't sit and watch as they suffer in this genocide.

He is trying to reach a preliminary goal of £3,000 on his gofundme, and has reached £2,046/£3,000 up until the time I'm writing this post.

But you can also help via his paypal!

And please share this post!!

Wunmi Mosaku, a graduate of London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, has done her share of memorizing pages and pages of scripts. ⁠

The ‘Sinners’ Oscar nominee tells Katey Rich about her unique memorization technique: using blue paper, which allowed Mosaku to cope with the dyslexia diagnosis she received as a teenager.⁠

Well, the entirety of my syllabus is a full explanation of creating with intent, and intent is not "versus" doing research and applying it!

Also,

"I wanted to challenge myself, using my amateur art skills and my teaching skills, to convey to creators how that makes us as a community feel, and little things they can do to more intentionally create their Black characters (and therefore show more care for their Black audience). There's more to us than adding to a diversity quota. There's more to antiracism than a checklist!"

-My FAQ

There's a difference between writing a character and just happening to make them Black, and Choosing to Write a Black Character. That is, one that is purposely, "I intentionally thought about the importance of the Blackness of this character as I wrote them, as well as the Black audience that will see them, and it shows".

Most of you don't do that. You write a Guy and go "I'll just say he's Black, boom I'm Progressive and Woke and Inclusive!" Meanwhile, it's a shell of a character that you will be angry at me for thinking could be better if you'd put a little more active thought into it, because How Dare You Question My Good Intent?!?

idk why no one helped my sister. I can't describe her pain; she cries uncontrollably and can't move or eat. She's been isolated from her friends. Her skin condition is severe and burns intensely. The medication is very expensive because it's not allowed in our country!!
