NO XMAS AS USUAL! NO JOY IN GENOCIDE!
To make collective liberation possible - we need everyone. As many in our community gather for a meal during today's holiday, we urge you all to use this time for critical community building and political education.
The Nikkei4Palestine Collective that we helped convene in October has worked with Nikkei from around the U.S. to create this comprehensive resource hub document that includes various resources to educate and take action.
During this holiday season and beyond, use this document to encourage those around you to join upcoming study groups (or create your own!), support a Power Hour, host an event, or donate.
Image Description: On a chiyogami print with flowers that are green, red, and black, text one a white background reads "Time spent with loved ones is the time to bring them into the movement!; As you gather in community, spend time reviewin Nikkei4Palestine Collective’s Resource Hub for links to educational materials, events, toolkits and actions to educate and activate yourself and those around you to join the struggle for a free Palestine!; Learn more: tinyurl.com/N4P-Resources; “Remember that consciousness is Power”, - Yuri Kochiyama”

Borrowing from Karuka’s 𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴, we must understand that the violence happening is part of a U.S. settler logic of extraction and destruction for profit on lands even beyond the self-imagined borders it imposes.
Together, we rise up! May abolition bring us closer to relationships of care and reciprocity.

“We will not even return to the ruins again…”
Following a night of t𝔢̕̚r̜̞Rȍr on Saturday, July 18th 2026, a yellow concrete block was placed in front of Rawan’s childhood home at dawn. If you have followed Rawan @reta_gaza, the 𝓫om8̜̏3d out house and its details may be familiar to you. Despite everything (𝓫om8̜̏3d at the onset of the invasion and inaccessible for a year, through countless forced displacements from the home since returning), it had escaped absorption into the B̠̆𝔲̇̐fFeR̞̍ zǒ̋п̠̏e. Rawan’s siblings and relatives’ homes had long been destroyed, their once arable land razed and made inaccessible, but the childhood home remained and held out hope. Please see her niece Awatif (@maram_taiseer) playing on a swing there in slide #13.
It was the last place connected to her life before the invasion. It was where she shared a room with her sisters since childhood, and therefore countless memories, both harrowing and happy. This was one of the reasons why her family remained there, despite the danger of its proximity to the yellow line. [Cont. in comments]

「私たちの周辺も避難させられそう。まだ確かな情報じゃない、でもやつらはやるつもりよ。ここを奪わないはずがないわ。ヘリコプターが飛んでいる。もし境界線に到達すれば、前進するでしょう。」
「そう、とても緊迫している。もし彼らが進軍してきたら、私たちは死ぬ。今度は生き残れない」
「想像してみて。ガザから脱出するための費用は4万5千ドルよ。」

「いわゆる『オレンジライン』が、境界線の新たなステージを示す呼称として現れつつある。まだ正式に発表されていないこのラインは、2025年10月10日の停戦合意で承認された**『イエローライン』——イスラエル占領地域（東側）とパレスチナ人の滞在が許されている地域（西側）を分断する線——の延長で徐々に拡大されている」**（全軍撤退を前提とした一時的な撤退ラインとして）
——パレスチナ情報センター、2026年5月7日
この投稿は、ここ10日ほどの間に言及されるようになったオレンジラインが出てくる以前の、イエローラインの段階におけるタイシール姉妹（ラワン、マラム、ハディール）とのやり取りに基づいています。

2年来の友人であるラワンとマラムに関する、かなり前に更新すべきだった情報です。また、母親イブティサムと共に彼女たちを育てた長姉ハディールからの情報も共有します。
ラワンとマラムについての情報は、2025年6月28日以降、Instagramでの更新がありません（比較的定期的な更新はGFMのリンク先で見られます）。大変遺憾なことですが、これは私たちの連絡が途絶えたためではありません。むしろ逆で、話は毎日しています。姉妹たちは全てを記録し、安価で古いスマホからそれらを発信しています——マラムはテントから。ラワンは崩れかけた自宅から。その家は、最近まで緑豊かな農地だった場所に築かれた大きな土堤に駐屯する侵略者から500メートル（写真で見る限りそれより近いように見える…ラワンには過小評価する癖がある）の地点にある、エリアで最後の一軒です。彼女たちの言葉、詩、そして身の回りで起きている出来事を書き起こすと、それらの間に隙間が生まれないほど、全ての事象が次から次へと連続して起きています（近いうちに時系列を投稿します）。姉妹たちがこれらの記憶の欠片を発信するには多大な労力が必要です。彼女たちにとって、それらの記憶は安全な過去には存在せず、永続的な宙吊り状態と極限との対峙の中にあるのです。私たちは長い間、これをどのように投稿で提示すればよいのか確信が持てませんでした。しかし、それぞれの画像や音声は間違いなく送信されてきたものであり、私たちは感情に選択と順序を左右されながらも、ここにそれらを記録しようと試みました。

スライドをご覧いただく際に、重要な点がいくつかあります。姉妹の祖父母はビル・サバ（「ベエルシェバ」）地方出身のベドウィン農民で、1948年に西へ追放されました。現在ある緩衝地帯は、インファンティサイド推進主体の常套手段である占領、文民の強制移動、そして抹殺（「民族浄化」という用語は、ジェノサイドの定義を婉曲化し回避するために加害者側が広めた用語なので使用しません）に伴い、この地域にある肥沃な土地の上に幅3～4kmの範囲で戦略的に設けられました。ここが姉妹の祖父母が追放後にたどり着き、2023年まで家族とともに住んでいたエリアです。この土地は、古代から存在する砂岩の稜線によって西側の砂地から守られてきました。イエローラインは、この稜線と平行に広がって要塞化されているのです。東側はすべて破壊され、建物が一切ない異質な風景へと変貌しています。これは、国際司法裁判所（ICJ）における占領に対するジェノサイド訴訟で証拠を提出したForensic Architectureの記事で説明されています。
「何世代にもわたり、パレスチナの小麦と大麦畑の大部分は、ベエルシェバ地域の肥沃な平原でベドウィンによって耕作されてきた。これらの農民は、1948年末、ラファとガザの間の海岸沿いの飛び地に追放・収容された20万人のパレスチナ人の中に含まれている。この土地のうち、幅3～4kmほどの細長い土地だけがガザの境界内に残された。ここ数十年、この肥沃な土地はガザの穀倉地帯であった。しかし今、それはすべてイエローラインのイス〇エル占領側にある。」

Hadeel is the eldest sister in a large family from central Gaza. She lives with her husband, Ahmed, and their three young children: Waseem, Rami, and Aboud. Throughout the past year, while so many families have had to turn to mutual aid for survival, Hadeel has never asked for help.
We are her friends, asking on her behalf.
ハディールはガザ中部出身の大家族の長女です。夫のアーメドと、3人の幼い子供たち（ワシーム、ラーミ、アブード）と一緒に暮らしています。この1年間、多くの家族が生き延びるために支援に頼らざるを得ない中、ハディールは一度も助けを求めたことがありませんでした。
私たちは彼女の友人として、彼女に代わって皆様の暖かい支援をお願いしています。

Call your senators to tell them to investigate crimes by the US military in Okinawa!
As Ryukyuan people living in the United States we have a sukubun (duty) to our choodee (brothers and sisters) living in the homeland. The military controlled by our government and funded by our tax dollars has caused immeasurable suffering in the form of violence, particularly directed against Ryukyuan women. Therefore, it our sukubun to use our position as US citizens to call for an end to this violence.
One way we can do this is by calling for investigations into crimes conducted by US military service members in Okinawa by modifying Senate Bill S2296. This measure has already passed in the house version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Now we need it to be written into the Senate version of the NDAA! You can make this happen by calling your senators now!

INT’L HUMAN RIGHTS DAY: FIGHT US-BACKED FASCIST ATTACKS AT HOME & ABROAD!
WHEN: 12/10 5:30PM
WHERE: Union Square SF
RSVP: https://tinyurl.com/D10RSVP
December 10th has been designated by the UN as “International Human Rights Day” but this is meaningless in a world where the US-backed fascist attacks happen around the globe without repercussion. This IHRD, join a broad and united people’s movement to oppose the many US-backed atrocities & wars waged against peoples all across the world and intensified fascist attacks on communities here in the US.

In solidarity with the two workers unjustly fired by Orange Blossom Education whose courses we used to support and promote, we demand that OBE:
1) Take accountability for their actions and provide the two fired workers as well as the public with a clear explanation for why the firings happened.
2) Stop publicly identifying as a “cooperative,” so that future employees and students are not misled regarding the nature of their business model and practices.

Kantō Massacre: Never Forget!!
Full statement is on this post. Please take a look.

Kantō Massacre: Never Forget!
After the Great Kantō Earthquake in Japan on September 1, 1923, false rumors spread that Koreans were "poisoning wells" and "rioting", leading to massacre by racist Japanese vigilantes, police, and military. OVER 6,000 Korean and Chinese civilians were massacred. Every September Ist, a memorial ceremony is held in front of the Kantō Massacre Memorial in a park in Tokyo. Since 2017, Tokyo racist right-wing Governor Yuriko Koike has stopped sending condolence messages to the annual memorial ceremony, while a right-wing group, "Soyokaze," began holding rallies at the same time and place.
Anti-Korean racism persists in Japan, with a In 2021, a 22 years old Japanese men set fire to buildings in Kyoto's Utoro neighborhood as an anti-Korean hate crime is a recent example. The Japanese government continues to deny the Kantō Massacre, despite documented evidence, ahe government itself is taking the lead in denying history and which fuels contemporary imperialism. Japan's historical denial aligns with U.S. interests, as seen in the JAKUS alliance formed in 2023 with the U.S. and South Korea, increasing Japan's military spending by 2027 and try to brcame the world's third largest military spender, and participation in US -led war game targeting China and North Korea in Korea.
Japan has been allowed to evade justice for its colonial crimes because this serves the interests of US imperialism. Japan today is preparing to commit new crimes against the Korean and Chinese people-and also aiding Israel's genocide of Palestinians through weapons deals and defense agreements.

On July 13, we invited Mr. Lin Boyao and Mr. Oh Choongkong to our meeting to share their families experience in the Kantō Massacre and solidarity message to action organized by Nikkei diaspora in Turtle Island.
There is action and vigil coming up in so-called "Vancouver, Canada," and "Los Angeles." We will keep you updated!
7月13日に私達は、在日華僑の林伯耀さんと在日朝鮮人の呉充功さんを私達のミーティングに招待し、彼らの家族の関東大震災後の虐殺の経験とタートルアイランドの日系ディアスポラ達によるアクションへの連帯メッセージをシェアしてもらいました。
今回、先住民の奪われた土地である、いわゆる「カナダ・バンクーバー」や「ロサンゼルス」の地域で、関東大虐殺に関する催しやアクションが行われます。
