🇵🇸 We Are Not Numbers

"When we write about martyrs, we must remember that the occupation killed them. We must not leave the deed to the unknown."

Today, the occupation killed the martyr Dr. Refaat Al-Areer, one of the most prominent English professors in the Gaza Strip and the founder of We Are Not Numbers. Refaat, a writer and activist, empowered Palestinians to write their own stories, to take back the narrative, and to be heard by the world. He was a leading expert in Palestinian history and the zionist occupation, amplifying his principled anti-zionist stance to the world.

His final tweet was: "The Democratic Part and Biden are responsible for the Gaza genocide perpetrated by Israel."

"If I must die,
you must live
to tell my story."

🇵🇸 The legacy of Dr. Refaat Alareer

We are devastated by Israel's murder of our dear colleague, friend and mentor Dr. Refaat Alareer in Gaza City on 6 December 2023. Throughout this genocide, Refaat never stopped writing, supporting his students and bringing Gaza's voice to the world. We will make sure it continues to be heard.

This is an excerpt from the EI livestream on 20 November 2023, during which executive director Ali Abunimah, writer and scholar Yousef M. Aljamal and Palestinian novelist Ahmed Masoud talk about the incalculable impact Alareer has had on his students in Gaza.

🇵🇸 Israel's calculated murder of Gazan scholar Dr Sufyan Tayeh |
The New Arab

Dr Tayeh, the current head of the Islamic University in Gaza and a distinguished member of the theoretical physics and applied mathematics communities, was considered to be in the top 2% of science researchers worldwide in 2021. His death has been widely mourned by Palestinians across social media.

"Israel's systematic assault on Gaza has ripped the tree of knowledge from its foundations. The resumption of airstrikes has left thousands more dead, including one of the world's leading physicists and mathematicians, Dr. Sufyan Tayeh. This is his story:
