I sort of vaguely knew this, but then you read the words and it's actually jaw-dropping
doing some research on sojourner truth and it's amazing how that white woman changed her original words and dialect in the "ain't i a woman" speech to make her sound like a southern woman when she was a dutch speaker from new york. ridiculous lol

The smallest are the most mighty! But why is the world putting this immense pressure on Gaza’s youth…to support their families? This is what the world is ok with? chuffed.org/project/help-u…. The situation is horrendous in Gaza. There is no positive spin, there is no moral to the…
🧵Palestinians have sounded the alarm for months over the Israeli-engineered famine starving Gaza’s residents. Support Palestinians on the ground who are keeping each other alive ➡️
Columbia’s suspension of 80 students for the Basel al-Araj Popular University is the largest mass suspension in campus history, the harshest mass disciplinary action by any school since 10/7, and likely the highest # of students disciplined for Palestine ever in U.S. academia.

The postwar social contract where American (however defined) workers are granted access to security not through a vast safety net but access to capital in the form of real estate is over! It's never coming back, that era of accumulation is finished!

the hard part about dating is finding someone who’s mentally ill enough to understand you but not mentally ill enough to ruin your life
The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention – named after Raphael Lemkin, a Holocaust survivor who coined the term genocide – says it plainly: "No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits. GET FOOD AND WATER INTO GAZA NOW. IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT."
The @LemkinInstitute is calling on every leader in the world to step in immediately with measures that ensure food and water gets into Gaza right now. No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits. GET FOOD AND WATER INTO GAZA NOW. IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU…
The real antagonism concealed within the movement for transgender rights is class-based. As Jules Gill-Peterson writes, the rise of “transgender liberalism” has erased the interests and worldview of working-class people. thebaffler.com/latest/reject-…
Every idea of “politics,” as such, has proved fallow and inoperable.
The theory of change that if people around the world make demands of their states to stop something and change course—which reasonably people tell themselves is operable—has been shown through the Palestinian cause to be nonexistent. We should reckon with that fact.
For the @Parapraxis_Mag resistance issue I wrote about the lines of flight forged by some of the most important revolutionaries of our time. Among other things, this piece is my perspective on Black-Palestinian solidarity

Israel is carrying out total annihilation of the Palestinian people within the occupied Gaza territory. Speak out now or never.
Physically holding food away from a person while they starve to death over a period of weeks is an unimaginably cruel crime. Never mind a society doing it to another society.
“This is a manmade and politically motivated starvation of a people.”
In #Gaza, people are being starved. Families can’t find flour. People are going without meals for days. Prices have increased by over 4,000 %. The Israeli Authorities have banned 🛑UNRWA from bringing food into Gaza for over 4 months. This is a manmade and politically…
Dear God They're sending an SOS, ringing literal alarms about their impending death they're dying before our eyes, of forced starvation as TONS of aid sit a few miles away, walking distance away!
Ambulance sirens are sounding simultaneously across the #Gaza Strip in a coordinated distress signal, highlighting the escalating famine and the collapse of the healthcare system. (Source: IG: mohammed_fayq) The world is about to witness the mass death of thousands due to an…
