the only voice on it at the moment is my own, but the memorial is designed to receive contributions from the world

https://contribute.gaza.memorial/

the idea is to record the names of the dead of gaza in all the voices and accents of the world. a small gesture of global solidarity with the oppressed in the face of zionism and the attempted erasure of Palestine.

if you feel moved to participate, the memorial will be more complete with your voice, and i would appreciate it greatly.
