I’m moving toward my goals on patreon. When I reach 300$ a month, I’ll start posting longer comics on Saturdays. If I reach 700$ a month, I can keep posting daily for the foreseeable future *and* expand the project. You can pledge for just 1$ here.
We have teamed up with our friends at Tervis to bring you an amazing new collection of drinkware! Stay hydrated in style while you help Save The Elephants.
Because of you, we’ve donated over $1.6 million to Save the Elephants and other charitable organizations. It our global mission to help eliminate the elephant crisis and motivate the next generation to take action!
On this day, 28 November 1919, Faye Schulman, photographer and Jewish resistance partisan, was born in Lenin, Poland. In 1942, the Nazis murdered 1850 Jews in the Lenin ghetto, leaving only Faye and 25 others alive, making Faye take and develop photos of the massacre. Covertly she made copies of the photographs for herself. She soon fled and joined the partisan resistance, serving as a fighter and nurse. While on a raid in Lenin with her unit, Faye managed to retrieve her camera equipment, and then began documenting the resistance movement, developing her photos under blankets. “I want people to know that there was resistance. Jews did not go like sheep to the slaughter. I was a photographer. I have pictures. I have proof.” Faye survived the war and currently lives in Canada.
