11 year old Yaqeen Hammad was a popular (and the youngest) influencer in Gaza. Her content was bright and hopeful showing the world how she and her community were managing to survive the catastrophe

She was killed last week in an Israeli airstrike

Power consolidation=evil.

somehow this strikes me harder than anything else

I have teached young people create short films in refugee camps, recently in Bangladesh’ Kutupalang (Rohingya) to give them agency - video is a strong universal medium.

young people are just trapped in all the stupidity, they just want to give shape to their lives, be happy and be someone. you’d be surprised what adults can learn from them. 

anyway the horror.

Great work, i agree giving young people that agency is incredibly important for their mental health and development, especially when under such dire conditions.
