Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Just finished reading Huna by Abdelrahman ElGendy — about his imprisonment in Cairo 13 years ago today — & it’s the best thing I’ve read in years. Couldn’t put it down. Today it was named national book awards finalist. Go get a copy — did a reel on insta for anyone interested. 0269

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 26/09/2026UN Israel ambassador, this guy, is staying in the building across from the Met on 82nd street. 99% sure we just saw him walking his dog, and suspicion heightened when his body guard noticed us noticing and almost stepped on our toddler in his ammateur hour body guarding. 12912

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I'm working on a syllabus for a Borders class & having a bit too much fun with it - a privilege to be tenured and creating a new class for grad students. But I came upon this interview with Nira Yuval-Davis, whose work on borders I've always loved re how she became an anti-zionist: 0244

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I grew up in part in Auburn Alabama where my dad was a prof (little known fact about me) & auburn board of trustees voted to shutter its faculty senate & make all decisions about curriculum etc unilaterally. Just a chilling precedent. 5366
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Guys you know you've struck a nerve when the hate mail keeps coming. This time from a PhD who can't spell SCOTUS, and a man who describes himself as handsome and recommends I should "occasionally pick up a book." A testament to how absurd & violent this hatred is. 2385
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 29/06/2026 I ❤️ hatemail. Just really shows you who these people are. And no I don't blur your info if you choose to do this sort of thing, so write me at your peril. 1346
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 24/06/2026I couldn’t be prouder of @darializaforny.bsky.social who fought & won against the most vile smears, of organizers who pounded doors across our city, of the New Yorkers who voted for dignity over capital, for freedom over establishment politics. Good morning on this new dawn for American socialism. 310411

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 12/05/2026So it’s fascinating because it’s the same Chelsea handler who recorded a video with Noa Tishby, Israel’s former special envoy for combating antisemitism and the delegitimization of Israel, saying she doesn’t understand why progressives don’t support Israel. She’s 100% a Zionist. 191
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 01/05/2026So I’ve been keeping this under wraps until it all went through officially, but I got tenure and it just went through approval at the Board of Trustees level. And they said some nice things! We made it friends❤️ 8288839
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 28/04/2026Something I find so jarring is how reporting is still straight laced using language like "what amounts to" and then you click in to this... still this late in the game I am never prepared. 2204
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 21/04/2026This time the letter was signed by the former president, and the future one (notably not all of council). Notably, they have toned down their reproach of the 2024 Resolution, holding it up as one-of-the-good-ones. How many ways do they need to tell us that they don't want us before we leave? 1272
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 21/04/2026Though 500+ members committed to boycott he annual meeting, the American Sociological Association just reiterated their refusal to allow a vote on BDS, complete with a throwaway line about how they "might broadly support Palestinian and other scholars under attack". 36923
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Ok I’m slammed today but had to take a minute to celebrate this HUGE datapoint. @darializaforny.bsky.social outraised the seemingly untouchable AIPAC funded incumbent. We can win y’all, donate!! Go to her page for the link. 1324

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 07/04/2026I think it’s great that public opinion is shifting & all but the fact that a genocide of babies can be broadcast for over 2 years & the dems— the progressives of the two parties — are still shocked that condemning it is a good thing is wild. Just bananas. 418247
Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 31/03/2026New York: Something really cool is coming to Hunter. We're bringing in a Virtual Reality project, called the Phoenix of Gaza, that takes you into Gaza pre-genocide. It is one of the most moving things I've seen. Each night is crowned with a panel of amazing speakers. RSVP ASAP, space is limited. 12912

A candidate in Ohio apologized for sharing my post grieving ongoing genocide on its 1st anniversary. Word to “allies” like Nicole— if you can’t stand up, sit down.

Heba Gowayed هبة جويد @hebagowayed.bsky.social · 28/02/2026AIPAC has already gone underground in some races, understanding their name is a penalty. The real issue is Israel. It’s the support for a state whose entire raison d’etre is ethnoracial and religious supremacy. That exists through apartheid & genocide. And to that too people are finally waking up. 210034
