My family and I are now evacuating from Beit Hanoun after they “notified” us to leave — and by that, I mean they bombed us with artillery and airstrikes. We’re walking, not knowing where to go. This has become our reality; we’ve grown used to the unknown road. After we settled

There is no time to despair. We continue to work every day to get support to our people on the ground. Esims are desperately needed, and there are multiple ways to give. Please give *generously* - there is nothing more important than helping them survive this genocide.

Anyone with a modicum of power at a university needs to be condemning this right now—not saying it's upsetting, not telling people to get mental health support if they're bothered by it, but saying it's wrong, and explaining how they will oppose it.

Once you build a massive “deportation” machine, an industry really, it will not stop with one category of immigrants, or immigrants at all. It will self-perpetuate new classes of people to detain, to fill detention beds and meet removal quotas. It will create a meal to feast on.
