Went on Democracy Now! to beg people to see immigrant workers—like our fallen brothers who were working on the Key Bridge—as human beings. We are not your enemy. I'm sorry I can't respond to everyone's messages rn. Very tired & heart is very frayed. But we'll keep reporting ❤️✊🏽

The ASA membership has spoken! The Sociologists for Palestine “Resolution for Justice in Palestine" has passed and become the association's "official position." Nearly 60% of those that voted did so in favor. Grateful for all the colleagues and comrades that made this victory possible!

Lebanese friend of mine is trying to get information about his family & said something I didn’t even stop to consider today. He said ‘a lot of people are hesitant to answer texts right now’. What Israel did today really does change the course of how “wars” are conducted.
