It's critical to read about this & oppose it. The "terrorism" label is a political weapon for oppressing Palestinians, Muslims, and/or people of color. That's what it was designed for within US legal regimes. There is no way to reform or expand the label that undoes its fundamental colonial nature.

If you care about abolishing and critiquing idea of the war on terror as a political project , you should give my colleague @rmkhan.bsky.social a hearty follow. She and @sarahgharib.bsky.social just published an amazing special issue, me and several others are part of : doi.org/10.1080/1753...

A key piece of German remembrance culture is the erasure of longer histories of imperialism & white supremacy in Germany and Europe at large. On this, I'd recommend: Johnny Pitts' "Afropean": www.penguin.co.uk/books/300186... Hans Kundnani's "Eurowhiteness": www.hurstpublishers.com/book/eurowhi...

This, by @rmkhan.bsky.social, is so so good. "in the vast majority of cases absolutely no attempt at defining religious terrorism is made at all; instead, its meaning is ... assumed to be common sense, as it is based on an essentialist, & as I argue colonial & racial, understanding of religion..."
