    This was my other #MyPalestinianSitty who no one could mess with. She was proud of being from #BeitHanina and was one fierce woman. pic.twitter.com/6VKUArdekD

    — Rashida Tlaib (@RashidaTlaib) August 18, 2019

    #mypalestiniansitty was born in a free Palestine, and died under a brutal and illegal occupation. Her voice was so soft, but the lessons she taught us about life can still be heard today. @RepRashida @RashidaTlaib pic.twitter.com/q5sOJbJ2w5

    #MyPalestinianSitty inspired the grandmother in my novel. As we were in the photoshoot of the book cover in 2008 I received a call telling me my grandmother had died. She never got to read the book I dedicated to her. She lives on in my story. It’s all for her. pic.twitter.com/pmrlgkUZLv

    My grandmothers were born in Palestine. Sitty Amneh had to leave Palestine & came to Australia before I was born. Every Sundays she gave us Twisties & Volvo biscuits. My sitty Nadiyeh escaped to Kuwait. She made the best drooling Palestinian cuisines😋 #MyPalestinianSitty X2💚💚

    This is how I always remember #mypalestiniansitty– smiling, singing, and bringing joy to all around her. Unfortunately, because of my strong Palestinian activism, I may also be barred from entering Palestine to see her. But she is proud of all I do, every day ✊🏽🇵🇸❤ pic.twitter.com/aKlAMY4n7S

    I don't have #MyPalestinianSitty I have a Bubbe (I call her Biffy) She's 98 & lives independently Even though she's scared my work for Palestinian rights could make make me suffer, she's proud of me. she reminds me of how close Palestinian & Jewish cultures are

    #MyPalestinianSitty was born in Yaffa. She was expelled from Palestine in ‘48 at the age of 11. Never went back to school because they always thought they’d go home tomorrow, next week, next month. pic.twitter.com/EII2pwwnmm

    #MyPalestinianSitty taught me the true meaning of perseverance and faith. Because even when bombs would be falling around her she had faith her family would be safe.

    Me and #MyPalestinianSitty. She was born in a #freepalestine but passed away under occupation. Inshallah before my time is up I can experience a Palestine that’s free. pic.twitter.com/EUlHk1uy53

    #MyPalestinianSitty & grandfather fled Saris 🇵🇸 in 48 when the Hagana Jewish forces raided their city. They fled to a refugee camp in Qalandiya and took a 60 day trip on boat from 🇱🇧 to 🇻🇪 to start their lives over. My family eventually moved Jordan. She died in 09. We never met. pic.twitter.com/RwTdnoOPGl

    #MyPalestinianSitty—my Teta Selma—and me, and the home in Jaffa she never got a chance to return to. pic.twitter.com/UcsP0dfmHD

    #MyPalestinianSitty survived the Deir Yassin massacre, the first village that was ransacked before the Nakba strikes with the purpose to set an example for other Palestinian villages if they didn’t surrender. Out of 600 villagers, over 200 were murdered. We will never forget. pic.twitter.com/5BNum6GeqF

    #MyPalestinianSitty was forced to leave our village in the outskirts of Jerusalem and had to care for her eight children while migrating on foot, with only the clothes on their backs, to Amman. Allah yer7amek Teta 7ilwa, I wish I was able to meet such a strong woman pic.twitter.com/vzwPHwdzJE

    #MyPalestinianSitty Teta Farha in Ramallah around 1925; sadly she died shortly after this photo was taken. My step grandmother, Teta Zareefeh, lovingly raised all nine of her children. She died in 1967 during the war. Palestinian women are truly the salt of the earth. pic.twitter.com/Zk6iBIV6QZ

    #MyPalestinianSitty to this day we still don’t know where she is buried. My mom hasn’t seen her grave since she was a young girl & all we know now that the graveyard was destroyed, burned and built on top of. We believe she’s located somewhere in H2 but we’re not permitted entry. https://t.co/UnkGf2Sn5I

    #MyPalestinianSitty was killed in her own home 16 yrs before I was born. She never hurt a soul.

    The last memory her children have of her is stepping over her to get to the doorway.

    I honor her by choosing peace over violence & progress over bitterness.

    I’m a prisoner of hope. pic.twitter.com/aYYXrpHvWO

    #MyPalestinianSitty like other Palestinian grandmothers, has the ♥️ for the land in her DNA. My sitty grew up not knowing how to read or write but still raised 7 educated children. She grew up farming all year, growing vegetables, olives, wheat and taking care of farm animals. pic.twitter.com/dVzg6CBl4R
