Thank you Drs. Al-Dajani, Atari-Khan, Salim, @yaramekawi.bsky.social & @drgigiawad.bsky.social for modeling what it means to name & speak out against antiPalestinian racism. We can’t afford to be quiet about genocide & ongoing dehumanization. Excellent @apadivision45.bsky.social panel discussion

Storytelling as liberation is powerful! And Matt does it so well through his SpokenProject YT series. I'm enjoying this episode of Liberation Now podcast, esp. Matt's discussion of structural & personal liberation. Thanks to @helenneville12.bsky.social and @andilee-phd.bsky.social for this episode!

This NYT-driven nonsense bugs me every time I see it. Let's set the record straight (again). Our DEI office was *very* effective. thread

Israeli forces have now dropped more explosives in Gaza than fell on London, Dresden, and Hamburg during the Second World War. The region’s hospitals have not been spared; most are no longer functional. Clayton Dalton writes about the devastation.

The Last Hospitals in Gaza

In the ruins of a health-care system, many medical facilities have become graveyards. Doctors continue to deliver lifesaving care—but they risk their own lives in the process.

"Refugees are the most vetted, no refugee has ever committed an act of terror" "If an immigrant commits a crime, all immigrants should be sanctioned" Both sentences, one "pro immigration" one against use the same logic. If we're ever to get out of this, we must insist all humans are just human. ➕
