    It’s becoming harder and harder to read these stories. But I don’t want to get numb to this like so many other people in the US. I can’t let myself be like a random,comfortable German living in Nazi Germany oblivious to my country’s war crimes. Excusing it seems like the first step to losing your humanity.

      I, unfortunately, saw a picture of a man holding up a headless baby in Gaza scrolling through Instagram. As horrifying as it is, it really puts things into perspective instead of just hearing about the number of deaths on TV. Ceasefire now!
