The ACSA claims that canceling its Palestine edition and firing its interim director was a necessary act of self-preservation. Instead, they have––through explicit repression and flagrant Zionism––permanently tarnished the organization's legitimacy.

A year ago today, Aaron Bushnell self-immolated in Washington, DC. We will always remember the resoluteness with which he carried out his sacrifice, his commitment to a free Palestine, and his rejection of "what our ruling class has decided will be normal."

A year ago today Aaron Bushnell gave his life to try to stop the US-backed genocide in Gaza. What he did was an extraordinary act of love and humanity, a sacrifice I wish he never felt he had to make. I wish we could have gotten to know him. Always remember and honor him.

After reporting in northern Gaza over the last 470 days, @AnasAlSharif0 took off his Press helmet at Al-Mamadani Hospital. “After more than a year,” he said, “we can begin to discuss the removal of this helmet, which exhausted me.”
