Thank you, Rima! I will check this out. I was actually referring to the 5 minute news summaries they do at the top of the hour during the day. Not the more in-depth reporting. I appreciate the recommendation.

I wept when I saw this Billy Ruffian art illustrating the words of a Palestinian living among falling bombs & dead children. There is much suffering in many places. Weep, but then act: Crips for eSIMS by the Disability Visibility Project: tinyurl.com/4cd935te Donate. Boost. Resist. Rest. Repeat.

A black background is drawn back like a tent flap to show the bombed city of Gaza as a blue nighttime silhouette. In the middle distance there are white outlines of gravestones. In the foreground, a steaming bowl of food by the opening of the tent. The quote by Akram Sourani reads: 

Leave the door to the tent ajar and put a dish of lentil soup on the floor of earth because the kids could wake up from their graves hungry any time.

NPR is awful. I can't listen to them on Isreal's genocidal war on Gaza. About as bad as the NYT.
