Your support helps document untold human stories from Gaza.
SARA runs on the patience of readers. Every contribution pays for film, hard drives, a translator, a meal for a contributor — and lets us keep the work careful and unhurried.
“Thank you for reading. Every story is small. Every one of them matters.”
On X.
Notes, small dispatches, and pieces of the work in progress — posted as they happen.
A small archive,
kept by hand.
SARA is one person's journal, kept publicly. I write about what I see and what people share with me — photo essays, recorded conversations, small dispatches. I do not run advertising and I don't chase the news.
Most stories are sent to me by people inside Gaza, in the West Bank, and in the diaspora. They write under their own names where they can, and under chosen names where they cannot.
If you'd like to write something, send a recording, or share a photograph — I would love to read it. hello@saragaza.com.
A quiet letter, every Sunday.
One long read, one photo, nothing else.
