Make America Learn History Again: Palestine
Make America Learn History Again: Palestine
It’s real history, as told by some conservative in my inbox and me
This story contains sensitive content on genocide. Reader discretion is advised.
This story is about the history of Palestine, but it’s not in the past. The anguish, the violence, the death, are still ongoing. As I type this, they are suffering. As you read this, more innocent people are dying.
I’d like to think through education, we could change this course, realizing of course that there are people on the far right who will always refuse to listen. Our words though could overpower them. In America this is especially important since our tax dollars are funding this devastation. I am here to try.
(As an aside, the reason these men think I’m a conservative is because of a bait profile I use for these purposes.)
This was a simplified history of Palestine. I try to keep the posts as concise as possible to reach the most amount of people. If there’s something else you really wish I would share on Palestine, please let me know in the comments.
I’m bringing this one to everyone for free, but I would greatly appreciate any monetary support. Paid subscriptions are only $5 a month. If you can, consider helping me by subscribing below.

A lot of people commented (on Facebook) that using the British census data, the Jewish population was higher than I originally stated. I am not using the British census. I’m using academic sources who explain that the census was inaccurate for a variety of reasons. I found the whole thing not worth getting into though and I could see leaving it up would only cause further people to latch onto that, so the number is gone. Love you all. 😘
