“Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk”: New Film on Gaza Photojournalist Killed in Israeli Strike
https://www.democracynow.org/2025/11/12/put_your_soul_on_your_hand
from #DemocracyNow!
November 12, 2025
Democracy Now! speaks with the renowned Iranian filmmaker Sepideh Farsi, the director of the new #documentary “Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk.” The #film is based on regular video calls Farsi made with the #Palestinian photojournalist Fatma Hassona in #Gaza over the course of a year from April 2024 to April 2025.
Hassona was killed with her family by an Israeli missile that targeted her apartment building in northern Gaza. The strike occurred just one day after she learned that the film centered around her life and work had been selected to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. “It’s something that I will never get over,” says Farsi.

#UK has become an unequivocal #PoliceState under #Starmer, whose #Stalinist instincts have always been clear
Murray & others are fighting this appalling legislation, its misuse & have set up a crowd fund to raise money for legal costs the fight will incur

Palestine Action “not close” to terror group, Scottish board found
A #Scottish counter-terrorism board found that #PalestineAction’s activities fell below the threshold to be considered #terrorism before the group were banned by #Labour, The National can reveal.
It appears that #Police #Scotland concluded the group’s activity was well below the terrorism threshold.

“STEAL THIS STORY, PLEASE!” is a great new documentary about the life & times of the brilliant Amy Goodman of Democracy Now!. She has fearlessly and faithfully been a beacon of journalistic truth and justice for years and this doc brings to life her incredible career and important work at a time when it is most needed.

🚆 Your rights should travel with you.
We’re working to make rail journeys across the EU fairer, proposing stronger passenger rights when combining tickets from different railway operators, including rights to:
✅ Reimbursement
🔁 Re-routing
🆘 Assistance
💶 Compensation
Currently, these rights don’t fully apply here, and we are seeking a fix.
Got any ideas or views to share?
Have your say 👉 https://europa.eu/!WNbQTd
@EUCommission that sounds great, we all like rights.
You know what else would be great? Not giving up our PRIVACY HUMAN RIGHTS and democratic fundamentals on *Oct 14th 2025*.

#UK public’s trust in our #politics has collapsed
Only 1 in 10 people now trust the government to put the country first.
This is a dangerous territory to be in and without serious #reforms we risk people losing faith in #democracy altogether.
Introducing a fairer, more #ProportionalVoting system would start the process of restoring trust and confidence in our political system.
