Palestinians were not born to die in someone else's settler conquest fantasy. We were not born to be tallied, nameless, in death as "the price of war." We were not born to be a provocation and punished for existing. It is still possible to love palestinians while we are alive.

I am asking President Biden, along with 7 of my colleagues, to enforce existing U.S. law. The Foreign Assistance Act is very clear: Netanyahu’s government MUST stop restricting humanitarian aid access to Gaza or forfeit U.S. military aid to Israel. That's the law.

Translated: people should go to grad school because we require feudal labor for tenured faculty. We can’t downsize PhD programs—even though there are no professor jobs—because we maintain class privileges for “real” profs by offloading teaching duties onto exploited PhD students.

A huge part of why the prison exists as it does is to smother the potential for dissent. That is to say, the thing you thought was made to keep you safe is designed to silence you, should you ever question it.

"In Williams’s fiction, nearly everything she values is a) too important to take entirely seriously and b) fair game for sharp but mostly playful abuse. The abuse is proof of her love." Happy pub day, Joy Williams! nytimes.com/2024/07/01/boo…

This is profoundly disgusting Gavin Newsom. Homelessness is a policy failure and instead of doing your job and getting people housed you're doing a photo op stealing a destitute person's things. x.com/Elex_Michaelso…

I have never been so sure something will become a top voting issue in the next decade. My family is going through this early because my dad is in the final stage of early onset Parkinson’s at 57. If we don’t do something to address the cost of elder care it will financially

And the Nobel Prize in Literature this year is awarded to South Korean author Han Kang, recognizing “her intense poetic prose that confronts historical traumas and exposes the fragility of human life.”

This AMAZING. North Carolina Central University hosted a “Soar to the Polls” with a marching band & just look at how many young people showed up to soar to the polls. This is why we’re going to win. These young people are going to save us.
