In this page I'm going to be sharing all the links to resources that I managed to find, which will include resources to get educated, organizations to donate to, accounts to follow, etc...
1. Easy ways to educate yourself on what is going on in Palestine:
Decolonizepalestine is a website with many different resources. Is has "Palestine 101" for people wanting to learn the history and origins of the occupation and genocide, it has a page debunking myths, a reading list & FAQ.
Haymarket books is offering three Palestinian books for free on their website to people who want to learn the history.
Sonia Sulaiman has shared on her website a reading list of books by Palestinian authors.
I made a challenge (list) con Storygraph for Palestinian books. The initial idea was to focus solely on Palestinian voices, but in the end I divided the Storygraph list/challenge in: fiction books by palestinian authors, non-fiction books by palestinian authors, and books on palestine/the genocide/isreal by non-palestinian authors (since many of those nonfiction books are also very educational). There are books for all ages. At the moment there are 171 books, but I will add more when I find them.
Kreads on tiktok has shared the link of a google drive folder with multiple free books about Palestine.
A second google drive folder with Palestinian books.
Short documentary (16min) on youtube for basic knowledge. "How Palestinians were expelled from their homes" by Vox.
The Associated Press' Fact Check is updating the website to address the misinformation being spread on social media daily.
Read an article by Al Jazeera about The Nakba ("The Nakba did not start or end in 1948")
Read an article by Middle East Eye about The Nakba ("The Nakba: All you need to know explained in five maps and charts")

5. Stay updated and keep sharing!
Don't believe everything the media shares and consume every content critically.
Social media and news outlets are already suppressing pro-Palestinian content to share Israel propaganda, so now is not the time to stop talking about this. Use your platforms to raise awareness about the situation.
Amplify Palestinian voices and spotlight Palestinian culture.
Awareness is resistance.
